If you have.... what is your opinion of it?

I'm obsessed with my RX100 (more so than my DSLR to be honest) and so I foolishly went into my local Sony centre out of interest and played with an RX1R which pretty much made me want one very badly... it was a stupid thing to do!

Anyone? smile

Very late to this, but I'm a little obsessed with my RX1. It just doesn't seem possible that something so small can quite comfortably hold its own against a D600 or 5D, but it does comfortably. I bought mine because I wanted something small and light for when our little sprog arrived, but it was so good I ditched everything else, in London yesterday it was awesome.

I think the term 'holy thread resurrection' is accurate here!

As a year has now passed.... I have an RX100 M3 these days smile

Decided on that over an RX1 as it is more pocketable and a little more flexible.

I love it, but if money was absolutely no object I would have an RX1R as well just because...

I did a search as its a rarely discussed camera, I've no idea how many they sold, presumably not many!

It was way, way out of my price range, but I waited, waited and waited some more and one came up for £1k used, result!
