Sony recently released the latest full frame compact camera in the CyberShot RX series, with signifi cant upgrades as well as new additions. The RX1R II features a 42.4MP sensor as compared to the 24MP sensor on the RX1R. The maximum ISO speed has also been increased from 25,600 to 1,02,400.
Like its predecessor, the RX1R II sports a 35mm f/2.0 Zeiss lens. However, while the viewfi nder was an optional accessory in the RX1R, the RX1R II has a 2.4 million dot retractable electronic viewfi nder that can be tilted over a span of 150°. It is alsoequipped with an optical variable low-pass fi lter, touted to be the fi rst of its kind among digital cameras. While the fi lter in the RX1R could be operated either in the ‘On’ or ‘Off’ modes, this fi lter has 3 modes—‘On’, ‘High’, and ‘Standard’, aimed at striking a balance between better image resolution and reduced colour artifacts.
The camera also features a continuous autofocus mode to track moving objects, even the eye of a moving subject. It also supports the 14-bit uncompressed RAW format, in addition to video recording in Full HD.
