Re: Is the Sony RX100 VI the spiritual successor to the KM A2?

I had a Minolta A2 and loved it for its manual zoom and excellent ergonomics. I have snce followed the KM to Sony path via the A700 (a virtual Minolta) to A77 and ended up with tha RX100m3 and an RX 10m4 I can't see me buying any more cameras! The rx100 is perfect in my pocket when I know I won't need 600mm zoom, the RX10 is perfect when I do!

Though Sony ergonomics are not as good as Minolta, the only thing I really miss is the manual zoom. Same as I mourn the loss of manual car window winders! Simple, effective and never failed to work!
