Customer Ratings & Reviews

This camera has everything you would want in a point and shoot plus so much more. Easily fits in pocket or purse. Has automatic and manual settings that allow for artistic shots. Fast and accurate auto focus and frames per second. Zoom out to 200mm. Awesome. Only thing is no grip and easy to hit the video button.

Had this camera for a few months now and it really is amazing for the size. It fits in my pocket and is still really powerful. It’s not completely terrible in lowlight and I love that it comes with a viewfinder.

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.

This is the one camera to have when you’re on the go and what to get better images that what your smartphone may offer. Super compact and pocketable. Small enough that I had to add the available Sony grip accessory to to get a better grip on it (highly recommended). The one inch sensor produces terrific Images have good resolution and color depth. The zoom lens has a practical range. I owned 4 different lumix compact cameras before this and their focus wasn’t always reliable. The RX has a superior focus system and holds its own even in low light. The viewfinder is an amazing piece of engineering in a small footprint like this. Very handy in bright daylight when the lcd screen can get a little harder to view. Taking high quality, 4K videos is a breeze. It’s nice that you can use the zoom when you shoot video. Much harder to do that with a smart phone and no available with a GoPro. The automated settings are pretty reliable to get the shots I need but it also has a full range of control options when you need it. The LCD display articulates to take the occasional selfie of high or low shot. - which make the camera ever more flexible as you wander in search of those great pics. Low likely performance is perfectly acceptable - try get decent resolution in a reasonable lit room. I have never had to use the available flash (that’s also a little marvel of engineering). The camera has a solid feel and is well constructed. All metal and everything feels pretty robust. No protruding buttons so it’s doesn’t accidentally turn on etc. The batteries are small pretty so battery life is constrained. I have three spare units so I can get a full days worth of shooting video and about 100 shots. Most camera reviews reset the Sony RX100 vi as the best travel camera to own. I would definitely second that. If you want to travel light don’t trust those travel pictures to anything else.

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

It is good for business. Very conpact and pretty good battery life. I am pleased with the photos quality.

This pocket sized camera is phenomenal. The picture quality is superb with so many features. Highly recommend.

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...

LOVE LOVE LOVE this camera. I’m a photography but use this when I go out with friends and we all love the photos! Super crisp images and compact to carry in your bag!

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.

The Sony RX100 VII stands out for delivering exceptional performance in a truly pocket-sized camera. Its insanely fast autofocus with real-time tracking and Eye AF makes it one of the best compact cameras for action, sports, and candid shots. The versatile 24–200mm zoom lens, sharp 20.1MP sensor, and high-quality 4K video with a mic input make it a powerhouse for travel, everyday photography, and content creation—all without carrying extra gear.

I got an open box of this camera in "excellent" condition and it started glitching out after the first week. Luckily, after talking to an in-store associate, it was pretty easy to return it and buy a completely new one of the same kind and I absolutely love it! I'm still figuring out the settings but there's plenty of tutorials and love the quality so far!

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.

Sony RX100 VII is a highly capable, pocket-sized camera with excellent autofocus, fast shooting speeds, and great image quality, ideal for travel and action photography. Best Overall Performance: The Sony RX100 VII offers 20fps RAW shooting, continuous autofocus, and no screen blackout, rivaling high-end cameras for fast action. Its compact size and 24-200mm lens make it an almost perfect travel camera with manual controls and advanced autofocus.

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.

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.

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.

Love this camera. The quality is insane!! Small and easy to operate.

This camera is incredible for its size. Great sound on video from the recording mike. The zoom is terrific. Highly recommend it.

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.
