Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX1 Full Frame Compact Camera Announced

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX1 Full Frame Compact Camera Announced – and It Is Gorgeous! by Eric Reagan on September 12, 2012 The Sony Cyber-shot RX1 is a new full frame compact camera, which sounds like a bit of an oxymoron. Somehow, Sony managed to stuff a full frame image sensor inside a compact body and bolt a 35mm f/2 Zeiss lens on the front with a 9-blade aperture for circular bokeh. And, you know what? It looks amazing.

Sony RX1 The label “game changer” gets thrown around a little too much with cameras, so I won’t call it that, but the RX1 certainly steps up the game and adds another level of complexity to the current mirrorless landscape for Sony’s competitors. It will also garner more than a few mentions alongside more expensive cameras like the Leica M9. The RX1 gets the same 24.3MP full frame sensor as found in the A99 and will capture 14-bit RAW files, as well as 1080p video at 24p or 60p frame rates. Additional features include a sensitivity range of ISO 50-25600 (up to 102400 w/ Multi Frame Noise Reduction), Auto HDR mode and
