Explore more of the world with wider zoom range
Stunning, high-resolution image quality, from wide-angle to telephoto
Every aspect and component of the RX100 VI has been skilfully engineered to work in tandem to achieve unrivalled image quality. Cleverly designed optics pack incredible power in a small footprint, while optical image stabilisation maintains a steady image even with handheld shots at the telephoto end of the zoom range. And the advanced image processing engine delivers better perceived image resolution with low noise.

Sophisticated, high-performance optics
The newly designed ZEISS® Vario-Sonnar T* 24-200mm F2.8-4.5 lens
The new lens system is effectively configured to achieve maximum resolution and clarity across the entire zoom range, while correcting for spherical, coma and chromatic aberrations. It brings truly remarkable telephoto capability to a pocket-size package, to vastly expand your range of creative expression.

Wide zoom range in a compact body
The lens optics (15 elements in 12 groups) provide uncompromising high-quality images over a broad zoom range despite the compact configuration.

High-resolution optics
Lens elements including four AA (advanced aspherical) lenses and two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements work together to achieve superb resolution right out to the periphery of the image, throughout the telephoto range.

Large aperture
Large apertures across the zoom range enable rapid shutter speeds and large amounts of bokeh. Even in the mid-telephoto range, the camera maintains apertures of F4 at 100mm and F4.5 at 200mm.

Optical SteadyShot™
Advanced image stabilisation is equivalent to 4.0-stop faster shutter speed
Sony is justifiably proud of its sophisticated image stabilisation system, and now we've improved it even further, providing a degree of stabilisation equivalent to raising the shutter speed 4.0 stops at the 200mm telephoto end. Capture high-quality images even at long range and in low light, with reliably steady handheld shooting.

High-performance 1.0-type stacked CMOS sensor
The 1.0-type CMOS sensor employs an innovative stacked structure to boost processing speed, while its back-illumination technology increases light collection efficiency to achieve a wide sensitivity range (ISO 803-12800) with reduced noise.

The BIONZ X™ advanced image-processing engine contributes to image quality
Advances in the BIONZ X processing algorithm contribute to higher perceived resolution and low noise levels as well as more accurate face and eye detection. Improved image-processor speed also enables faster AF/AE detection.

Fast Hybrid AF system achieves the speediest4 autofocus in its class, at 0.03 sec.
Remarkably rapid autofocus that's the top of its class is achieved by combining focal-plane phase-detection AF, with its fast speed and excellent tracking capabilities, and contrast-detection AF, with its high degree of accuracy.

Broad coverage from a 315-point wide-area phase-detection AF coverage
The 315 focal plane phase-detection AF points cover approx. 65% of the image area, and their wide area and high-density configuration mean that even distant, small and fast-moving subjects - often difficult to focus on - can be captured to the edge of the image. Phase-detection AF coverage (315 points) & Contrast-detection AF coverage (25 points)

Tenacious autofocus holds onto fast-moving subjects
When your subject is moving quickly and changing direction, the High-density Tracking AF Technology keeps up with the action, densely concentrating AF points around the subject's location.

Advanced Eye AF, ideal for portrait shots
The sophisticated Eye AF system has excellent tracking performance as it accurately focuses on your subject's eyes to facilitate better portrait shots.

Touch focus features make shifting focus intuitive
The Touch Focus feature allows you to set the focus simply by touching the monitor, while Touch Pad AF lets you drag your finger to intuitively position the focus when you're using the viewfinder.

Capture every moment, at 24 fps, with AF/AE tracking
Reliable continuous shooting of fast-moving subjects
When you want to reliably catch every moment of non-stop action, the continuous shooting feature captures up to 24 frames per second and up to 233 continuous shots.

Quality 4K movies with enhanced production versatility
The first HDR (HLG) support among Cyber-shot™ cameras
HDR (High Dynamic Range) video, with its wider range of colour and brightness, is now ready to enjoy without extra processing thanks to HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) recording capability.

Fast Hybrid AF makes better movies too
Fast Hybrid AF makes full use of wide-area phase-detection AF coverage -- in movies as well as still shots -- for smooth, fast autofocus. You can also adjust AF speed settings to add creative touches such as slow-focus effects.

S-Gamut and S-Log3 shooting give you greater flexibility in post-production
S-Log2 and S-Log3 gamma curves capture wider ranges of brightness and colour, giving you the creative freedom to perform colour grading in post-production while minimising blown highlights.

Convenient one-push access to the electronic viewfinder
Readily accessible at the touch of a button, the retractable viewfinder is an approx. 2.35-million-dot resolution organic electroluminescent display that provides both fine subject detail and faithful tonal reproduction.

Touch Shutter compatible tiltable LCD monitor
The Touch Shutter is an intuitive alternative to pressing the shutter button, and it may be easier to reach in some situations, depending on how the camera is held. You can tilt the monitor roughly 180°upwards and 90°downwards.

The RX100 VI introduces broad zoom range with beautiful image quality to a high-performance pocket-size camera. With 24-200mm zoom, 1.0-type CMOS sensor, phase-detection AF, ultra-fast 0.03-sec. AF, tenacious AF/AE tracking, 24fps continuous shots and 4K HDR (HLG)-compatible movies, it's ready to tackle any situation.

A pocket-size camera with full zoom range
The camera's no-compromise, 24-200mm optics deliver superb image quality, which combined with high speed and pocket-sized portability makes it ideal for travel shooting or flexible professional work by even the most demanding users. In addition, Clear Image Zoom lets you further enlarge the centre of the image digitally up to twice as much (400mm equivalent) with almost no image degradation.

High-resolution, compact optical design
New optics for the RX100 VI include eight aspherical lens elements with 13 aspherical surfaces for high resolution to the edge of the image, across the zoom range. Four AA (advanced aspherical) lenses correct spherical and coma aberrations, and two ED glass elements suppress aberration, for high resolution even in the higher zoom range.

Large apertures, great range of expression
Small F-numbers throughout the zoom range make it easy to achieve fast shutter speeds and large amounts of bokeh. Even at a focal length of 100mm, the maximum aperture stays at F4. This can reduce blurring in shots of fast-moving subjects, and it can also help portrait shots, where the subject will stand out against a high degree of background bokeh.

High-speed BIONZ X™ image processing engine
With faster processing speed than its predecessor, the advanced BIONZ X image processing engine contributes to the camera's high image quality, supporting improved AF/AE detection, processing speed, face and eye detection speed and accuracy, and minimised time lag on the viewfinder display.

Optical SteadyShot™
Advances in image stabilisation deliver the equivalent of a 4.0-stop faster shutter speed at 200mm, compensating for camera shake during hand-held shooting even in telephoto or low-light conditions. Combined with the highly sophisticated optics design and advanced image processing engine, this contributes to the camera's excellent image quality.

Exmor RS™ 1.0-type stacked CMOS image sensor for speed
The 315-point focal-plane phase-detection AF provides extraordinarily fast, precise autofocus and tracking. Furthermore, the 20.1 MP (effective) 1.0-type stacked CMOS image sensor with DRAM chip enables up to 960 fps super-slow-motion shooting—and an up to 1/32000 sec. super-high-speed anti-distortion shutter.

Eye AF with excellent tracking performance
High-precision Eye AF, combined with high-performance AF tracking, provides helpful assistance with portrait shooting. It's effective even when the subject is looking down and away, or when faces are backlit or in partial darkness, and it keeps the focus on moving subjects' eyes when using the AF-C setting.

Steadfast tracking with wide and dense AF
The RX100 VI's 315 focal-plane phase-detection AF points cover approx. 65% of the image area, for coverage that quickly captures even small or fast-moving subjects. This works in conjunction with High-density AF Tracking Technology, densely concentrating AF points around the subject to significantly boost tracking performance of moving subjects.

High-speed AF at 0.03 sec
Fast Hybrid AF responds in a super-fast 0.03-sec, seamlessly integrating the superlative speed and tracking of focal-plane phase-detection AF with high-accuracy contrast AF. It boosts the camera''s abilities to focus, track and capture sharp, clear still images of subjects in all situations, even in the middle of fast dynamic action.

Easy, natural Touch Focus and Touch Pad AF
With Touch Focus you can simply touch the LCD at the point of the image you want to focus on, so you can intuitively focus on subjects even at the edge of the frame, without reframing, for both still shots and movies. When using the viewfinder, use Touch Pad AF to shift focus smoothly and easily, simply by sliding your finger across the LCD screen.

Shoot at 24fps with AF/AE tracking
The powerful combination of the Exmor RS 1.0-type image sensor and the BIONZ X image processing engine enables continuous shooting with AF/AE tracking at up to approx. 24fps for up to 233 frames. Key moments and fast action can be reliably captured.

AF-A automatically switches focus modes
In AF-A mode, according to such changes as sudden subject movement and brightness as detected throughout the shooting frame, the camera automatically switches between AF-S mode (Single AF: locks focus while the shutter button is pressed halfway) and AF-C mode (Continuous AF: keeps focusing on subjects while the shutter button is pressed halfway).

Upgraded continuous shooting operability
Continuously shot images can be displayed in the groups in which they were shot, and shots can be deleted or protected with one quick operation. Camera operability while data is being written to the memory card has also been improved; now there is full access to the Fn Menu and the menu button, and settings can be changed.

Anti-distortion shutter
Fast data readout from the Exmor RS image sensor noticeably reduces distortion in images of fast-moving subjects such as a golf club being swung quickly. The Anti-distortion electronic shutter achieves shutter speeds as fast as 1/32000 sec.

Silent shooting for sensitive situations
You can mute the camera's shutter sound in noise-sensitive settings, such as gatherings in quiet restaurants or cafes. The shutter sound can be muted even during continuous shooting.

Fast Hybrid AF for movies
Fast Hybrid AF also delivers precision tracking when shooting 4K movies. Phase-detection AF is effective over the same wide area as with still images, contributing to smoother focusing. AF drive speed and AF tracking sensitivity are also adjustable, so focus transitions can be tuned to match the scene and your creative intention.

Supports the needs of HDR movie production
The RX100 VI serves a wide range of HDR production needs, with S-Log3, as well as S-Log2 gamma curves for colour grading in post-production, and a new HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) profile for instant HDR workflow. Movies played on an HDR (HLG) compatible TV need no colour grading to appear true to life, with no blocked shadows or blown highlights.

4K movies recorded at full pixel readout
When shooting 4K (QFHD resolution: 3840 x 2160) movies with full pixel readout without pixel binning, the camera collects approx. 1.7 times as much information as is required for basic 4K movie output. This oversampling effect results in images of outstanding resolution with reduced moiré and jaggies.

Super slow motion up to 40x slower
The stacked CMOS sensor enables an extra-high frame rate of up to 960fps. Shooting at 200mm telephoto, it''s possible to record impressive close-up super slow motion footage. Shooting frame rate and recording setting can be set independently for 4x to 40x super slow motion footage.

Movie support for professional workflows
For more advanced shooting and production, the RX100 VI supports and is compatible with various movie functions typically found in equipment for professional use, including Picture Profile, Gamma Display Assist, Zebra, clean HDMI output, TC/UB, Rec Control, Marker functions, and Proxy recording for simple net-based sharing and transferring to smartphones.

Touch Shutter feature for easy shooting
For the first time in the RX series, the shutter can be operated by touching the LCD monitor, which now swings up 180° and down around 90°. Operation is intuitive and convenient, especially when shooting scenes from high or low angles.

Extend still-frame capacity up to 30%
With the camera body power switched ON, the LCD monitor can be automatically switched OFF (either 2, 5 or 10 seconds after its last operation) to save power. Using this function can boost the maximum number of still frames that can be shot by up to about 30%.

One-push Access EVF
Depressing the viewfinder pop-up switch on the side of the body makes the viewfinder instantly available with just a single action, and the viewfinder can be instantly retracted when not in use.

XGA OLED Tru-Finder™
The retractable Tru-Finder electronic viewfinder''s sharp resolution (2.35-milliion-dot-equivalent), bright self-illumination and high contrast are excellent for previewing shots and adjusting settings accordingly. EVF eyepiece optics are treated with ZEISS® T* Coating to reduce unwanted reflections and ensure corner-to-corner visibility.

Tactile and smooth control interface
A lens-mounted control ring permits pro-style manual controls such as selection of shutter speed, aperture, and more, for added creative control. Additionally, the zoom lever has been redesigned for maximum operability of the zoom lens, which is now controlled in two steps by the inclination of the zoom lever.

My Menu your way
With My Menu, you can register menu items for instant recall and customise menus. The menu screen has been redesigned, and you can make button assignments for up to 30 functions to retool the camera interface according to your shooting preferences.

Location Information Link via Bluetooth®
Location Information Link makes the most of the RX100 VI. The camera can be paired with the PlayMemories Mobile™ app on a compatible mobile device to acquire location data, record it on still images, and correct camera date/time and location. The PlayMemories Home™ app can be used on a personal computer to organise imported still images on a map.
