This video was filmed on Sony RX100 mark VII ( Sony Mark 6 & 7 are almost identical ) camera handheld in night / low light conditions with maximum zoom most of the times. It seems to have very good video & image quality when shooting in those conditions. Not as good as bigger & more expensive cameras, but very good for a point and shoot camera. This video shows Japanese traditional taiko drummers' group Yamato performing in Stockholm, Sweden.
* Filmed at 120fps, exported at 30fps
* Shot Handheld and mostly with maximum zoom
* Audio straight from the camera, no external microphone used
SONY RX100 MARK VII detailed information:
The solid-feeling camera is really small, measuring just 4 x 2.4 x 1.7 inches and weighing 10.7 ounces with battery and memory card loaded. Since size is often what determines whether someone brings a camera with them or simply uses their phone, it’s worth pointing out that the RX100 is shorter than a Samsung Galaxy — although, it’s a lot thicker. Still, you can slip it into a pocket — or misplace it — just as easily as a phone. (If you’re prone to dropping things, we recommend using the RX100’s wrist strap to keep it secure and avoid the calamity of a broken camera.)
The standout feature of the mark VI is that 8x zoom lens, offering a full-frame equivalent focal length range of 24-200mm. It’s the longest zoom yet in an RX100, although the side effect is a slower f/2.8-4.5 aperture rating. Still, that’s really not bad considering how much zoom range you’re getting without any additional bulk. This lens makes the camera a versatile option for vacationers who want to go way beyond a smartphone’s digital zoom.
The camera has a lot of shooting modes onto the main mode dial, with Intelligent Auto, Scene, Sweep Panorama, HFR (High Frame Rate), Movie, Memory Recall, Manual, Aperture/Shutter Priority, and Program. A better name for HFR would have simply been “slow motion,” but of course Sony prefers to use inscrutable jargon instead of consumer-friendly terminology. Nomenclature aside, this is a really cool feature that has always been one of the more impressive capabilities of RX100 cameras. The onscreen controls for HFR remain as baffling as ever, but we’ve used this so many times with other Sony cameras by now that we’ve finally got it down. The standout feature of the mark VI is that Sony has managed to pack an 8x zoom lens — 24-200mm equivalent — into such a small body.
This system is nothing as advanced as Sony’s new Real-Time Eye-AF and Tracking found on the new A6400, but it works well in the real world as it does have the standard Sony Eye AF, one of our favorite camera features. Although this is a a capable focusing system, it’s not perfect. We got many keepers, but we missed some as well. Even with experience shooting many versions of the RX100, practice still makes perfect.
When it comes to picture quality, speedy focusing, and a versatile lens, the RX100 VII delivers on all fronts.
Low light performance is also good, with an ISO range of 125-12,800, expandable down to 80 and up to 25,600. In our tests, the 1-inch sensor held up until ISO 2,000, then began to add noise and color shifts. ISO 3,200 would be about as high as we’d go for a fairly accurate rendition. After that, the effect of noise is just too strong — it’s certainly better than what you’ll find in cameras with smaller sensors, but don’t expect the high ISO quality of an APS-C or full-frame camera.
Video, as is so often the case with Sony cameras, is another strong point. HFR mode offers degrees of slow-motion up to 32x (960 fps, 30 fps playback), although this drops quality to 1,244 x 420 effective pixels. We tended to prefer the more modest 8x (240 fps) option, which maintains a higher effective resolution of 1,824 x 1,026 (see sample video) and isn’t so ridiculously slow that you end up with way more footage than you bargained for. (For the record, actual 1080p video in non-HFR mode can be recorded up to 120 fps.) Again, the onscreen instructions for HFR are just plain weird, but if you follow them, you’ll get a nice slow-motion effect.
The RX100 VII is also 4K HDR-compatible and features both Sony’s S-Log and HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) picture profiles, which improve highlight and shadow detail normally lost in compressed video. We shot the XAVC S codec at 60p and 50 megabits per second and the results on a large screen were really fine with great detail and little rolling shutter effect. The videos are close to state-of-the-art, especially for such a small camera, something you really can’t say about competitors Leica, Panasonic, and Canon who all offer otherwise similar 1-inch-sensor cameras.
