D SLR Magazine: The RX100 is also a very attractive camera … do you think there is “space” between these two cameras for “other.”

Immediately grasp the pun, with funny laughs accomplices

D SLR Magazine: We know it’s a difficult question to answer and that in Japan the answer is usually something like “we’re considering it” or “have not made a decision” …
The reason, for us, is that it [the RX100] is a chamber of 600 € and this one [by RX1] is a chamber of 3,000 €. Some people think it’s too expensive for them …

Masaaki Oshima: So, you want this … [Pointing to the RX100]

D SLR Magazine: No: I want this … [Pointing to the RX1]

Laughter

D SLR Magazine: it is understood that it could not mount a goal as good as that of a camera RX1 price between the two, but …

Masaaki Oshima: At this time, we studied what could be the best solution for such a compact, but have not yet made a decision.

D SLR Magazine: Not yet.

Masaaki Oshima: Not yet.
