When beautiful scenery inspires the artist within, capture every exquisite detail with the compact Cyber-shot® RX100. You'll enjoy extraordinary light sensitivity, breathtaking image quality and beautiful background defocusing thanks to a newly developed 1.0-inch back-illuminated CMOS sensor and f/1.8 lens.

Amazing low-light shots.
Extremely high sensitivity and remarkably low noise are achieved by Sony's massive new 20.2-megapixel 1" Exmor R™ CMOS sensor. Its back illumination technology collects light more efficiently and combines with image processing advances to bring noise to unbelievably low levels – equivalent to noise one stop lower sensitivity in the renowned RX100.

Shoot from the hip.
The 3.0-inch, 1,228k-dot Xtra Fine monitor displays scenes extra clearly, even in bright sunlight. You'll enjoy clear, faithful reproduction thanks to WhiteMagic™ wizardry, which combines white and RGB pixels to boost brightness and visibility.

A sensitive 1.0-type back-illuminated 20.2MP Exmor R® CMOS sensor works with the new BIONZ X processor to capture your videos in sharp detail with minimum noise – even in dark scenes.
