Sony DSC-RX0

The camera for extreme shooting, as Sony positions it, was created by installing the “filling” of the premium compact Sony DSC-RX100 Mark V into the “body” of a square action camera.

"Filling"

Under the metal shell of the model's body, reinforced with stiffening ribs, there is a 1-inch Exmor RS matrix with a resolution of 15.3 MP, combined with a BIONZ X image processor. As optics, the camera uses a Zeiss Tessar 24mm f/4 fixed lens without an optical stabilization system - there was simply no room for it in such a compact body. The model also does not have a digital stabilizer, and, in fact, this is its only drawback.

All-protection

On the back of the all-protected camera body there is a small display, which serves for sighting during shooting and controlling the parameters. Sony RX0 is not afraid of dust, diving to a depth of 10 meters and falling from a height of two meters. And together with an additional protective case, the camera can withstand diving to a depth of 100 meters.

Filming

You can take photos with the Sony RX0 in RAW format, with a shooting rate of up to 16 fps. Video shooting is done in a maximum resolution of 4K (only on an external recorder) or in FullHD format with a bit rate of up to 240 fps, which allows you to freeze movement in the frame. Even more spectacular slow-motion can be obtained in a lower resolution with a frequency of up to 1000 fps. One battery charge is enough for about 35 minutes of video shooting, which, given the miniature size of the camcorder (59x41x30 mm), is worthy of respect.
