    The RX10 Mk 4 is an excellent bridge camera and could be the best all around camera ever.I bought the Panasonic FZ2500 a couple of weeks ago and, also, the RX10IV Sony. I got tired of reading reviews of which one was best and decided to compare them side by side. IMHO the Panasonic is a far out camera. It has more function buttons than you can shake a stick at. It has all the buttons and great thought out planning. I think the word is the ergonomics of the camera is great other than they should have placed the battery a little farther over from the tripod insert. The weight is just superb comp

    Excellent backup/travel/general use camera

    For photos and video, I generally prefer the Sony alpha system full frame cameras. My main mirrorless camera is the Sony a7s ii, which I like for its excellent low light performance. It's great for photos and video, although I would love to have the Sony a7r iv for photography. Financial constraints require tradeoffs, and these are the ones I've made. For similar reasons, although I'd really like to get certain G-Master lenses (esp. the 24-70, a few of the primes, and one of the long telephotos), I'm satisfied, for now, with a set of Rokinon cinelenses (24, 35, 50, 85), along with the 28-70 ki

    Sometimes you just need a vacation camera

    To the chagrin of my wallet, I have become a bit of a camera snob. While I finally convinced myself to sell my (unnecessary) Leica Q2 - I still firmly hold onto my Nikon D850 and my assorted lenses. When I am looking for the sharpest most 3D shot possible I pair the Nikon D850 with my Zeizz Otus 55mm.However... I have become more practical. Traveling with my Nikon and its variety of lenses (the prime 55mm, a 24-85MM, and the 85-200) isn;t convenient... they are bulky, and my family gets annoyed everytime I ask them to stop so I can swap out lenses.Soooo... for the last few years, I have decide

    The jack of all trades, everyday wonder camera.

    I've immensely enjoyed carrying this all around bridge camera with me on my weekly travels across the planet. It fits in my bag easily and has the versatility to do most things well, but it isn't perfect.While the focal range is great, I do wish the effective 24mm was just a bit wider at times. The 600mm end is basically ridiculously good for what it is. I never imagined having a daily carry with such a zoom range.With a 1" sensor, the image quality is pretty darn good (I normally shoot Fuji APS-C and medium format film) so no real complaints there.From street to landscapes it does great in mo

    A love hate relationship with this fine camera until you read all of the literature.

    There are enough people in the Far East that Sony doesn’t have to build this camera with big fingers in mind, in fact everything about this camera says: designed in the Far East and made there too.Sony seems to have a firm grip on their offshore manufacturing, much like Apple, the camera is well made.Should I write the things I love about it first or second? I’ll start on this foot: The Japanese designers do so for the East and Far East, not the West.You’re going to find this annoying at first, unless you’re originally the Far East. On Manual a zoom cameras should take no more than a complete

    Superb images

    Astounding camera. Have had my full share of cameras over the years--SLRs, DSLRs (now have a Canon 70D), mirrorless, compacts, bridge cameras. Not close to being a pro, just an enthusiastic amateur who takes a lot of family, sports, outdoors/landscape, horseback riding, and indoor group activity shots. This one is, in many ways, the most fun camera I've owned. Great reach with great clarity, despite the small size. Certainly will take me time to figure everything out and I've had my share of clunker shots, particularly in low light--but any camera involves trade-offs, and this one's no excepti

    The best all-in-one digital camera !

    I purchased my RX10MK4 used on Amazon and it was in amazing condition! It is the best bridge camera, period. What makes this camera worth the money Sony is asking? It's the 24mm to 600mm Zeiss Lens.Being able to go from 24mm to 600mm with one finger makes wildlife photography fun. It has great semi-macro capabilities and produces very sharp photos throughout. The menu system is extensive and takes little time to get used to. There are plenty of buttons that you can remap to make shortcuts to your favorite settings.The RX10MK4 is built like a tank and has a little weight, but it is well-balance

    False advertising, no wireless transfer of photos/video is possible with this camera.

    Updated 8/2/26: Now they have a RX10M5 out. Since Sony never supported the image transfer lack of functionality, why should I have to pay for another camera to get this functionality?? I am hoping someone from Amazon or Sony steps up and takes my RX10M4 back for a full refund. The camera never functioned as advertised. And yes, I did send the camera in for service when it was under warrantee but the issue was never fixed. In addition, I spent hours on the phone with Sony tech support and they could not fix it either. Why do I still have this camera and why did Sony not support it??I will never
