Sony RX100 Mark III


I can't find this option too inside the setting page. If someone knows how to do it, please do share. Thanks.

can't find it too. i don't recall the presenter mentioning anything about it though, unless i missed it. i attended the very first session.
 

It can't be disabled...yet. Search online as early reviewers mentioned it, and Sony said that it could be fixed with firmware should the overall general feedback deem it necessary.
 

Stabilsation looks much better than M2 ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8bflHx3rFY

On another note, I know in Australia you can get this camera for for 900+ $AUD, which in todays rates is a little over 1k $SGD...so why does Sony feel the need to gauge Singapore consumers with a price of $1,199?? Even the GST in Australia is higher than Sing by 5-6%...
 

I find myself inadvertently activating movie recording while I put down the camera. This had happened twice today already.
 

Selecting "Movie mode only" for the movie button solved the problem.

This must have been an oversight, I had on turn on my camera several times after using the EVF. Looked very silly each time I had to do it.
 

I actually prefer to use the EVF so that is not really an issue to me. I had the rear screen switched off most of the time. What I would like to see is that whenever I press the menu or playback button, the rear screen comes back to life again.
 

To be honest I cant see myself using the evf much. Only certain occaisons would call for it. I find myself shooting from the hip alot with rx100.

What i'd really like to see introduced is a touch screen focus every bit as good as the one found in the Panasonic cameras. For video quality in the rx100 to be able to focus pull by touch would be the best for me.

was at the first session too i was the one who brought up the question! the sony guy did confirm that it was possible and even demoed with the other sony lady however im sorry i couldnt remember how he did it! and i have yet to purchase the camera!
 

Had a chance to play with the demo set. I couldn't get autofocus to work when I'm zoomed in. Works fine when I'm zoomed out. Subject is probably an arm's distance away. Is this normal? I hate the auto camera shut down when EVF is closed too, where do we feedback to Sony so they will fix it?

I was at the first session too. So I'm right, I did heard that lady mentioned can be done but too bad she forgotten which area to set for it.

now i remember someone asking about it, so it was you.

perhaps the sets they had there were with a pre-release firmware version, that was not included later on?
 

hi guys,
I've seen video taken with super cool slow motion effect but i do not know how to do it. I've search a little on web that say can this cam do 720p 120/100fps but cannot find these settings on camera. any help here?

thanks

You can only do in in the XAVC S video mode, and you have to have one of the super fast SDXC memory card of
Class 10 or faster (which is at least 64gb I think). These aren't cheap...but if you look online you can find sales where they are marked down quite a bit.

Also if you shoot in this mode...make sure you got heaps of HD space to back it all up, and that whatever computer you're using can render out your edits.

from Sony's spec, I believe the minimal focus distance for 70mm is at around 30cm.

Ahh.. Thats why I cannot see the option.
It can do slow motion out from camera or still need PC software to do make it slow mo?
Do you have know a brand card that will work? I've read Sony is quite picky and not all SDXC card will work?
 

I'm not sure yet. I think you could do it out of camera, but for overall control (colour, cropping, etc) you'd want to do it via PC and control how you output it.
Sandisk or anyone of those reputable companies will have a card which you can use.
