I saw that RX100 thought about it. But the price prevented me from pulling the trigger.

Also i think thats a fixed lens ?
If so how far can it zoom ? Similar to a Nex-5 18-55mm lense or more ?

Talking of which i saw the NEX series expanded their lenses O.o
But from my understanding i can use the NX200 with other lenses or do i need an adaptor?

The lens offers a zoom range equivalent to 28-100 on a 35mm film camera. But you find a "clear image zoom" which can double the reach of your zoom lens from 100 to 200mm without much degradation to the IQ. And the lens is a fast Zeiss optics (1,8 at the wide end) nice to have when shooting in low light. This camera has more features than any other "small" camera I know, including the NEX 5n. You can bounce the flash, add the Richard Franiec grip, add filters and macro lens with the clever magnetic adapter from Carry Speed, etc.

I've sold all my other heavy stuff (DSLR with lenses) and I'm absolutely happy with my RX100 as unique photographic tool. Today it's really the best P&S on the planet!
