Customers often highlight the Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 V's compact size, praising its portability and convenience for taking photos on the go. Many are also impressed with the quality of photos it takes despite its small size. While some users appreciate the flip screen, others express disappointment with the limited zoom capabilities of the camera.
Pocket sized, well built camera. I carry it in my everyday bag with me I’ve been able to take some very nice photos that I spot on the go. Great compact option for travelling as well. Low light performance could be better but is not a limiting factor for me.

This is my third model in the RX-100 series (I, III, and V). Purchased because I want a full function camera where you have complete command of appetite, shutter speed, white balance etc. The electronic viewfinder and manual focus option are optimal for composition. Prefer the V to the VII because of sharper picture quality and generally don't need the extra zoom. My RX-100 III is starting to have issues after 3 years of serious use. This model in general is delicate. You get a ton of performance and because its so portable wear and tear adds up; unless you are ultra careful. This is a camera for someone who desires extreme portability, functionality, and takes a lot of phots. You can't bet it but you can break it.

The flash that pops up is fine, but the viewfinder is a bit flimsy. Already going towards the left, so that’s not fun. Definitely not a very easy point and shoot to use if you don’t know manual controls. It will look washed out at first out of the box. Be patient with it and once you do a new toy around with profiles and color enhancements it looks incredible Keep in mind, this isn’t going to have phone stabilization for video quality. However if you get past that, the video quality is incredible!
