Sony RX1R

The RX1R (2013) is the RX1 without an optical low-pass filter, for a little more fine detail from its 24 MP full-frame sensor and fixed Zeiss 35mm f/2 leaf-shutter lens. Optional clip-on EVF; built-in flash.

📝 How suitability scores are calculated GearScore™ genre scores are calculated from this camera's verified specifications — autofocus, sensor, weight, weather sealing and more — weighted by what matters for each type of photography. Where a spec sheet misses something (e.g. a manual-focus rangefinder for street), we apply a documented editorial adjustment. Scores are not based on customer reviews. See our full methodology →
