Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 VII is an exceptional compact camera that packs professional-level performance into a pocket-sized body. The image quality is outstanding, with sharp detail, vibrant colors, and excellent low-light performance. Autofocus is lightning-fast, and the 4K video recording is smooth and high-quality. Its portability makes it perfect for travel, vlogging, or everyday photography without sacrificing power. A top-tier choice for anyone serious about photography on the go.

This is the perfect camera for me. It fits in my pocket but is very powerful. The lens has good zoom and close up performance. I needed 4K video and the RX100 delivers. The 20 MP photos look great! I love the fast auto-focus and the ring around the lens which I use to adjust f-stop. I've only used the flash a few times but it is nice to have when you need it. I'm very happy with the adjustable LCD screen which, for me, is the biggest difference between shooting with this vs a phone. I don't use the viewfinder but might if it is too bright outside. My only complaint is that the movie button is too small. Sometimes it does not start recording and other times the camera is recording by accident. This can be solved by using the Sony - Vlogger Accessory Kit which has a nice large record button and controls the camera via Bluetooth. I also bought extra batteries because I use a lot of juice shooting videos.

Would highly recommend it. Takes amazing pictures, and very compact.

So far so good with this camera for my current needs. If you're looking for a more portable option with plenty of features and control this camera is a great choice. I like the size a lot for traveling and getting pictures that are better than my smart phone can handle. I wish it had a grip already built in on it, but it can be bought and added on easily.

Love how easy it is to use. Small & compact, can bring anywhere. Vacation photos look wonderful.

I switched to a compact camera because it was getting increasingly difficult to carry my SLR camera and lens and enjoy traveling. The pictures are amazingly sharp and I used the 200mm zoom quite a bit. The Sony was able to focus and take a clear picture even though our tour bus was in motion. When we visited a National Park, we were extremely lucky and saw a tiger appear briefly from the bushes, I was the only one on my vehicle that captured the whole body of the tiger. The other people with smart phones and slower cameras got only half the body or tail before the tiger disappeared in the bushes. For me, it was worth the cost of the Sony to capture a once in a lifetime picture.

This camera exceeded my expectations. The image quality is excellent even in low light, the autofocus is fast and accurate, and the compact size makes it perfect for travel and daily content creation. The video quality is sharp and stable, ideal for creators on the go. Definitely worth the investment. Highly recommended.

I am totally amazed at this camera. The picture quality is excellent as is the quick and accurate focusing. The low light performance is excellent too. I was skeptical to buy this camera and considered the Sony RX100 VA as it has a faster lens but I wanted the longer zoom and touch focus. The V7 has performed wonderfully in all lighting conditions. The lens is still fast enough for me as I got great night shots, focused, clear, sharp. I did a few selfies and the photo was sharp as could be with excellent color. The features rival the Sony DSLR. Best Buy did price match so I saved a considerable amount of money which was one reason I bought the camera as I did not want to spend 1200 Dollars on a camera. After using this camera I can tell you it is worth the price. Best camera out there. Since I saved so much money on the camera I bought an extended warranty, fitted case and extra batteries. Great accessories if you buy the camera. I know that Best Buy will fix or replace the camera if anything goes wrong for 3 years. Extra batteries are a necessity. The case protects the camera. There are two different styles of cases but I am not sure if Best Buy carries both. You can get it at a well known photo retailer in New York City. However, Best Buy carries a very popular fitted case and excellent Sony case. I took photos in total darkness with the flash and the the photo quality was excellent. The camera focused accurate with correct exposure. Most camera would have a difficult time focusing in total darkness without a light assist. Not this camera. Read all about the features of this camera and you will see it is in a class of its own. I highly recommended this camera. You will not regret buying it.

This really is a good camera quality wise but it could have been built better. LED is not so much a touch screen, it only works with certain functions. The power button should be a little bigger and a little less sensitive. Sometimes when I place it in a bag, something may touch the power button and it just drains the battery if left on. The battery doesn't last long and so I've had to buy multiple batteries. As for the pip up viewfinder, I honestly found it useless, maybe they can just do without it and place the power button there. I believe I could have purchased another camera at a cheaper price that still had excellent quality as this one.

Great camera-the AF is exceptional and the best part is that this powerhouse of a camera can fit in most pockets! Just wish that the body was made with some provisioning for a better grip. It could quite easily slip out if your hands if not held properly so you will need to invest in solutions for a better grip.

Camera quality is so good, it’s small so can fit in any bag.

Camera work really nicely. You can focus the camera really fast. It can focus automatically or you can touch the LCD screen to focus on any point on the screen. It's really nice to be able to carry this camera in your pocket and not get in the way. This camera produces amazing pictures and videos. Very easy to use either automatically or with different camera settings. I added a Lensmate system to add a polarizing filter or a ND filter. It works really well with this camera and is not affected by the zoom lens. This is a great travel camera

The Sony RX100 VII is a great option for beginners who want a compact camera with pro-level features. It’s easy to use with its Auto mode and has a tilting touchscreen for framing shots, making it beginner-friendly. The 24-200mm zoom lens covers a wide range of scenarios, from landscapes to portraits. Plus, its fast autofocus ensures clear photos even of moving subjects. While it’s on the pricier side, its image quality and versatility make it a worthwhile investment for those starting in photography or vlogging.

Still one of the best compact cameras on the market, no other camera with that size can give you that optical range, battery could be better, but picture quality is fantastic and sometimes I want to use this camera instead of "big" Sony A7iv. I wish Sony introduced a new gen with most recent features...

There are times you just don't want to carry your "big camera" - in my case if I'm gonna be in a theme park all day or other such location or when it's important to be a little discrete. This little fella with its small size, 200 mm zoom and 2.8 lens is perfect! You can put it in your pocket or hang it off your belt in a small case. Pop in a couple of extra batteries and you're set for the day. It makes great pictures and video to document your activities. It is pricey but as I've found over the years you get what you pay for. This is my 2nd in the RX100 line and it is an excellent alternative to carrying your dslr gear.

This camera allows you to carry a do it all camera everywhere you go. I missed many good shots because I was reluctant to carry around my full size heavy multi lense camera. Now I always have a real camera with me. It's not cheap but it is well worth the price.

This camera takes the best pictures I’ve ever seen. I’ve been into photography for years now and just wanted something smaller to carry around and this thing outshines my bigger cameras.

This little thing disappears in your hand (maybe a problem if one's hands are large) making for an unobtrusive everyday carry. It does everything my old Rebel from last century does but without the extra lenses.

I've had this camera for about a year and a half. I bought it to take to concerts where anything with a removable lens is not allowed. It is fast, sharp and just takea an amazing picture. Any time i dont have the ability or room to carry around my 7Aiii, i take this and could not be happier.

I wanted to get into street photography and am soo happy I found this little gem. Small enough to fit in my small purses and the photos come out crispy every time
