So I just got my used RX100 M3 from a really good seller on eBay and I'm not happy at all. The camera looks and seems to function okay as described.
But the issue is when you take the pictures. EVERYTHING overexposes about 3 stops except when shooting video. To get normal exposed images, I either have to shoot at -3 EV exposure comp or go into manual and dial it in manually and nothing matches the screen and I have to set to do the live view thing. Now what is worse is even at shooting say 1/800th or 1/1000th of a second, the pictures look as if they were taken at 1/15th of a second without steadyshot. I've disabled steadyshot and get the same results.
I never had a camera where shooting at such a fast shutter speed as 1/1000th results in image shake. I've played with the Mark 3 before in stores and they NEVER exhibited this overexposing or image shake issue.
I reset mine to factory settings and it made no difference. Been through all the settings and what not.
I'm tempted to just send it back if I can and get the Panasonic LX100 instead. its bigger, but you can't really fit this RX100 in your pocket either.
