Gruesome Price Cut for Sony RX-10, Still an Expensive Deal

The Sony products are known for their highly feature rich, advanced and delicate products. The RX-10 is a product which was launched back in this year. The major flaw wandering over the camera was its very high price. The device is spruced up with a lot of abilities for still photography and videography with a strong and huge room for innovation. The company has slashed the prices of the same and brought it down to $1000 from $1300. However, the prices are still at a good peak for such a cam. The practical nature of the gadget feels missing when it is being compared in terms of cost and initial assistance.

The camera boasts a 20 mega pixel snapper unit, which is braced with 1” BSi CMOS sensor. The 24-200mm equivalent stabilized F2.8 lens acts for perfect zoom functioning. The user can find the view from the 1.44M dot OLED viewfinder to serve the detailing over the picture with expertise and it is assisted with a 1.23 million dot LCD which can be moved to tilt as per user’s comfort. The zoom will function in the manual mode. The light sensitivity of the sensor is commendable with ISO 125-12800, which can be further expandable to ISO 80 at the lower side.

The Sony RX-10 can be used for video recording as this is an added benefit, as to reduce the blur and moiré effect, it utilizes every single pixel over the sensor. The step less aperture control, sockets for headphone and microphone, zebra exposure warning, uncompressed video output and focus peaking are some of the outstanding aspects of this camera to serve the best of videography fun to users.

Despite of having such a huge list of aspects, the thing which lasts in the court is its compact camera nature. The competitors of this camera are providing the same functions with some addition add-ons, but demanding a lower cost. This might be the reason for the price depreciation of the alleged unit, but the purpose still seems to be missing.
