Samples at 100%
The sample images scaled up to 100% so you can get the clear Idea the image quality or image science working behind Sony RX100 VI camera.
Bokeh Quality at Tele-End / 200mm
One of the thing I am going to say that if you are expecting DSLR like quality from a compact camera then you are expecting too much, this camera is one of the best compact camera but it cannot complete with the large sensor based mirrorless camera or DSLR camera mounted with a 50 mm F1.8 cheap and affordable lens.
I am also a regular user of Sony RX100 IV camera I always keep the Compact camera in my pocket. Since, I hate to capture images with my smartphone because I never like quality of images coming out from it but at the same time I am going to recommend you that if you can have DSLR with you or your mirrorless camera then it is bit more better when you going to talk about the image quality is difference between the two when you are using best lenses available. However RX100 VI camera is one of the best compact available out there and of course it does all the job when required, it captures images, captures videos you can YouTube without you can do anything so of course yeah the best camera you can get right now.

Well Sony registered a product WW 771132 at Indonesian wireless agencies. You can See the list of products below [also at our upcoming camera code page]. So, once the company register a product, then usually they take 3 to 4 months of time to make it official.
We all know that Sony A7 S II camera update is overdue. So, we are expecting that Sony will going to update the Sony A7 S III camera as soon as possible without any for the delay. But, at the same time before announcement of any camera we do get lot of leaks including images, specs and images. And we aren’t getting any sort of information related to the upcoming product which make us believe that yes something is coming but it’s not the Sony A7S III camera.
Sony RX100 VI (WW 771132)
Japanese sources clearly hinting us that Sony will going to announce a new compact camera very soon. And as we all know that Sony RX100 V camera is the only camera left for an update.

Sony finally announced a new 0.5-type UXGA OLED Micro-display, which is can be used as Viewfinder of upcoming Mirrorless cameras such as Sony A7S III or may be A9R. The newly announced OLED display features Top-of-Class UXGA Resolution, Featuring the World’s Smallest Pixel Pitch of 6.3µm
OLED Microdisplays are widely used in digital camera electronic viewfinders (EVF) for their superior high contrast, high color gamut, and high-speed responsiveness. Sony, having achieved this high resolution and high frame rate, now offers even more realistic image display and accurate capture of subjects for use in high-end cameras that demand extremely high image quality.

.Sony Releases 0.5-type OLED Microdisplay with Top-of-Class UXGA Resolution, Featuring the World’s Smallest Pixel Pitch of 6.3µm
Tokyo, Japan—Sony Corporation today announced the upcoming release of the ECX339A OLED Microdisplay featuring UXGA (1600 x 1200 resolution), the highest in class for a 0.5-type. This product achieves the world’s smallest pixel pitch of 6.3μm by leveraging Sony’s OLED display technology and miniaturization technology, enabling a resolution 1.6x higher than the previous model*1. By employing a new drive circuit design that operates on half the voltage of the previous model*1, the new product achieves the same level of low-power operation as its predecessor but with much higher resolution. When paired with Sony’s original driving system*2, a frame rate up to 240 fps is supported—double that of previous product*1.

Enhancing the resolution on microdisplays has traditionally presented problems such as deteriorating image quality due to decreased pixel pitch and inferior viewing angle properties. The new product features optimized transistors layout and process to address uneven characteristics and loss of withstand voltage, the issues associated with transistor miniaturization. The Sony original variation compensation circuit also enhances picture quality. Additionally, the color filter is deposited directly on the silicon substrate, reducing its distance from the light emitting layer, and the filter’s color array has been modified. This helps to secure the viewing angle properties while achieving high resolution.
OLED Microdisplays are widely used in digital camera electronic viewfinders (EVF) for their superior high contrast, high color gamut, and high-speed responsiveness. Sony, having achieved this high resolution and high frame rate, now offers even more realistic image display and accurate capture of subjects for use in high-end cameras that demand extremely high image quality.
Going forward, Sony expects this high-definition OLED Microdisplay to be employed in a diverse range of fields and applications such as AR (augmented reality) and VR (virtual reality) head-mounted displays.

Main Features
High-resolution UXGA in a 0.5-type
The new product has achieved the world’s smallest pixel pitch of 6.3μm by leveraging Sony’s proprietary OLED display technology and miniaturization technology, and has superior resolution 1.6x higher than the previous model*1. Generally, transistor miniaturization results in characteristic variation and reduced withstand voltage. This product uses a Sony original compensation circuit and optimized layouts and process for each individual transistor to address these adverse effects. Furthermore, the color filter is deposited directly on the silicon substrate, reducing its distance from the light emitting layer, and the filter’s color array has been modified to secure the viewing angle properties while achieving high resolution.
High-speed frame rate
A new drive circuit design supports a high frame rate of up to 240 fps*2, nearly double that of its predecessor*1. This has made it possible to capture fast-moving subjects in the viewfinder with higher accuracy, so users will not miss a photo opportunity, delivering a more comfortable shooting experience. In head-mounted display devices, this will help to improve image delay issue for items superimposed on real-world vision of AR and to avoid motion sickness during usage of these kinds of devices.
Low power consumption
By employing newly-designed peripheral circuits that operate on half the voltage of previous model*1, the new product delivers the same low-power operation as its predecessor when operating at the same frame rate, despite the nearly 1.6x increase in the number of pixels.
From past few weeks we are getting a lot of questions related to the Sony A7R IV camera, several readers are asking the same questions, is it safe to buy the Sony A7R 3 camera now. Let me tell you that it is completely safely to buy the Sony A7R 3 camera now. Because if u look at the announcement dates of the Sony A7R series camera, we still have one year left for the next update of Sony A7R III . The Sony A7R III camera was announced back on February 2018.
And if you look at the previous announcement date of A7R series camera, then you will find that Sony do maintain at least 1 + years of gap in announcing the megapixel Monsters.
Based on the rumors we have received in past via veteran rumor mills that Sony is working on 70-80MP sensor. So, we may see A7R IV camera with a super High resolution sensor and ability to capture 6K Videos. Well, Recording 6K video isn’t a big issue for Sony A7 series camera, because recently announced Sony A7 III camera that records videos at 6k resolution and then it down-sample it to make a High Quality 4K video with more details. So, Sony A7 series already have it and 6K isn’t a new thing for Sony.
Sony A9R Before Sony A7R IV ?
Well, that’ a big possibility. We, have seen Sony first announced the Sony A9 camera even when the A7II update was overdue and approx 1 year after the announcement of Sony A9 camera, Sony announced the trim-out version of Sony A9 camera. The Sony A7III while having almost same core specification as of Sony A9 will cost you $2K less than the Sony A9 camera. It’s a clear indication that Sony wants to reach more people and at the same time they also want to make some profit and dominate Fullframe camera market by lowering down the cost of High-end cameras. So, it is also possible that this Year we may see Sony A9R camera and a year after we will have a trim-out version of the flagship, Sony A7R IV.
What is specifications you want to see inside the Sony A7R IV camera. Do your thoughts and wish list with us.
