- This is Sony's new Sony RX Mark VI,
and I'm gonna go through five
of the best new features on this camera.
Let's go.
(trip hop music)
So if you guys have been following the What Gear channel,
you'll know that I've been using this camera, lately,
on my holidays, and I actually compared it
to the Huawei P20 Pro, triple camera smart phone,
and if you wanna see how this done against that,
make sure you follow the link to
that video at the end of this video.
But anyway, let's not waste anymore time, now.
Lemme show you five of the new features that
I really, really like about this version of the RX100.
(twinkling)
So number one, the pop-up EVF now has a single action,
whereas before, you used to have to kinda pump it up,
and pull it out to get it to work.
And now, it's just a single action.
Much easier, much better.
It has a really fluid motion and
I can't say enough good things about the EFV on this camera.
It's really, really good.

So another really awesome new feature to this version
of the camera is now, you can shoot 233 shots
at 24 frames per second, whereas the Mark V could
only do 150 shots continuous.
So that's a massive upgrade, there,
and definitely a good reason, maybe,
to upgrade from the older RX100.
(twinkling)
So number three, I'm a massive fan
of other YouTubers out there who do tech reviews,
and quite a lot of them use this sort
of top-down filming, and it's something
I wanna do in the future.
But with this camera, you've got a new feature,
where this screen, here, can actually now tilt all the way
down to 90 degrees, which means you can have the camera
like that, and actually see what you're shooting.
So, for example, if you wanna shoot food,
or anything like that, this is really cool.
Put this on a tripod, as well, and you can
actually see what you're shooting, directly downwards.
That's an awesome new feature to this LCD on the back.
You've still got the classic styles of adjustments
that you could do before, but now you've got
that 90 degree downward angle on the LCD, as well,
which is just awesome.
I really love this new upgrade
that Sony have added to this one.

So number four, and this is a cool one,
but it's not quite cool enough, yet, in my opinion.
They've actually put a touchscreen on here, now,
for the first time, and it's something
that people have been asking for.
There's touchscreens everywhere,
on every phone or on every tablet.
I'm sure they've got the technology to do it,
but they've added touchscreen, here, but it's quite limited.
You can actually take photos and focus, now,
by touching the screen itself.
I don't know why Sony haven't added
in more features with the touchscreen.
I'm sure they'll probably do it in the future.
Maybe the Mark VII, next year.
But that's a nice addition
to the previous version of the camera,
So when you're shooting using this screen
and not the EVF, you can
literally touch the screen, focus the camera,
and even take a photo using the touchscreen, itself.
That's pretty awesome.

And the last awesome upgrade that I'm gonna mention,
there is more stuff, don't get me wrong,
but this is awesome, I really like this.
It's the new 20 to 200 millimeter Zeiss lens
that they've put on this thing, which makes zooming
in super, super easy, and you get
really awesome images, as well.
The stabilization, as you're zooming in is just so smooth.
Just a great feature, to be able
to zoom in a bit further than before.
Some people might complain because the Mark V had
certain features, which this now doesn't have.
For videographers, maybe you might wanna lean
towards the Mark V, which is a lot cheaper, right now.
I think it's around £650 at the time of this video.
That might be a better option for you
This is over £1,000, so it's a massive saving,
and I do like this one.
Is it as good as the previous one?
I think it's better.
Is the last one still worth buying?
Yes, it definitely is worth buying.
In my opinion, the RX line is the best compact camera
you can buy, right now.
But anyway, that's pretty much it, for this video.
Love this camera, it's really awesome.
I can't say enough good things about it.
If you guys want it, check it out.
There's gonna be a link below this video.
And if you enjoyed this video, and you're finding me
for the first time, make sure you hit the thumbs-up,
subscribe, and turn on those notifications
so you can catch more videos in the future.
Now, it's all well and good, me talking
about the five top things, new things.
There is one major thing that Sony should have done,
which they haven't done, yet, and it is the mic jack.
Where is the mic jack?
This camera is fantastic.
I love it, but for video, where is the mic jack?
Give us a mic jack in the next one,
and this will be the finest compact camera, ever.
But yeah, I guess we'll have to wait for that one.
And once again, if you wanna check out
that video that I did, comparing the P20 Pro
to the RX100, you'd be surprised at the results.
Check it out, see what you think,
and leave a comment if you like this video,
and also on that video.
Lemme know which one you think won.
Anyway, thanks for watching.
I'll see you guys in the next one.
Don't be late.
