What owners like
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 IV works best when you want a premium compact pocket camera with more control and a stronger lens than basic compacts rather than a technically perfect modern camera; its 1.0-inch stacked Exmor RS CMOS and 24-70mm equivalent, f/1.8-2.8, 2.9x optical zoom are the main character of the look.
Common complaints
Check the lens movement, flash, screen, buttons, and card door calmly before relying on it; older compact bodies can need a little patience without being a bad buy.
