I've played with one for a couple of days now.
This is a fascinating camera.
The only compact camera I have used that can thoroughly beat my Nikon D810.
It's not that compact, fairly bulky as far as compact cameras go.
Image quality is out of this world.
my dog
200% crop on the eye
my friend Charles (ISO 5000)
200% crop on the eye.
ISO 6400 at f/2
Macro is a bit rubbish
Dinner (next to no DOF)
Appies...
full of lines
The Good:
Image Quality and Lens (Those closest camera to touch it in terms of image quality is a 50MP Hasseblad, it will soundly beat a Pentax 645D)
The Size - fairly pocketable
Bokeh is ...like a trip to triple-creme land.
Chromatic aberration is amazing for a 35mm f/2 (much much better than a Leica)
Microcontrast is spot on
The Bad:
Battery Life (average under 200 photos a charge)
Slow! The RAW files are 85MB and you can't display till they're done writing (1000x SD Card in there)
The Ergonomics - did they hire monkeys to design the menu system
no VR
and the Elephant in the room:
the utterly eyewatering price
We're talking about a compact camera from Sony that costs more than you would dare to imagine.
