Sony RX100 VI
The Sony RX100 VI marked a pivotal shift for the series — trading the fast fixed apertures of earlier models for an extraordinary 24-200mm f/2.8-4.5 Zeiss zoom, giving it more versatility than any previous RX100. The 20.1MP 1-inch stacked CMOS sensor enables 24fps burst shooting and Fast Hybrid AF with 315 phase-detect points. 4K/30p video, 1080p/120p slow motion, and 960fps HFR round out an exceptional video specification. A pop-up EVF and fully articulating touchscreen add versatility without adding bulk. The trade-off is the variable aperture: at 200mm the maximum is f/4.5, which limits low-light performance at the long end compared to earlier fixed-lens RX100 models. For travel, events, and vlogging where zoom reach is essential, the RX100 VI has no practical competitor in its size class.

Variable aperture limits low-light performance at the long end, but for travel and events where reach matters, there is no practical alternative at this size.
