Picture from RX1


Stop drooling... I LOVE mine.... best and most fun camera Ive bought this decade! :) Also the first cam thats allowed me to leave a big DSLR at home on a holiday. ( Ive shot the Nikon D200, D300, D3S, Fuji X100, Leica M9-P )

Aiseh!

Coming over from nikon d7000, I really like the portability and IQ.
Now trying to sell off my nikon lenses to raise fund for this little beast :)
 

Now is a good time to buy this. Great camera...I realised that I use this camera more than I did with my A7R :)
 

To answer the some questions asked earlier,

1) the AF box can be made smaller. When using the focus mode on center AF, the box is larger, to make it smaller, use the flexible spot AF mode which uses a smaller AF box. Some have mentioned that using the larger box makes it focus faster than the small box. I did extensive testing and found no difference in AF speed using either sized box. The smaller box in flexible spot mode is just the right size IMO

2) the EVF works great with my RX1R. IMO it's the best of the accessories you can buy, though expensive. I also found myself using the tilt feature a lot more than I thought I would. Also works great in bright sunlight when it gets hard to see the screen, or when you want to steady your shot better since using the EVF braces the camera against your face.

3) no shutter count function in the camera as far as I'm aware

If anyone else has any other questions on the RX1R, fire away and I'll try to help (spent a lot of time trying to learn how to maximise is amazing potential)

Thanks. The flexible AF spot is smaller than the central but it cannot be even smaller after that. Basically, looking to see if it could be as small as the one in the A7.

BTW, whats the best price so far on the EVF...its so expensive...
Anyway...stop poisoning me! Im not going to get it because it takes up the space for the flash hotshoe....no no no...

EVF is always sold at RRP. And always limited stocks.

You want cheaper gotta check BNS every day for used set.

That's not true about the EVF.....RRP is more than $600 and there's no PWP with that. However...there is a street price....
 

Since you know there's a street price, what are you waiting for?

Already miss out on the Sony sale and airport ran out of stock for the evf. Tmrw will go down Funan to look for it.
 

This is limited stock item. That's why most shops with stock (if they have) will sell at RRP. Call first before going down.

If all out of budget, why bother checking on price of it? :)

Look out for used set in BNS. There are a few sets selling with EVF.


Still out of my budget. Rx1r already out of budget. :-)

Definitely better than an A7R with SEL35F28Z
 

The rx1r the best and even better than rx1. Unto date, best match of sensor and Len.
 


Not to judge or to discriminate or to put the share down, atarandas bro, but this is written by a 23 year old kid who only started shooting with full frame dslr 2 years ago? How many uncles and bros here have been shooting with FF dslr longer than that. Objectively, his experiential credentials are quite inadequate.
