And of course the sx50 can't touch my rx10 IV but there is a BIG price difference there.
Nothing can touch the RX10/4 except the Mk3 which is the same camera minus PDAF and a very rudimentary touchscreen - the lens is very special , miles ahead of the mediocre optics which the other 1" sensor superzooms have INCLUDING the Mk1 and mk2 and that's why these two Sonys are so ludicrously expensive , this is the one case where you get what you pay for (the RX100 Mk7 is the total reverse - costs over a grand and the lens isn`t special in the least)
The only issue that always bothers me about the sx50 is the EVF. Sure af is not amazing and is a bit sluggish but all that I can deal with when I use it. The EVF is the painful one but still, you can work with it.
Pretty how much I see it .
Would be nice to get the same 12mp sensor size with modern enhancements.
agreed - same lens too - the SX60/70 messed it up - Hoping Sony don`t screwup the RX10 Mk5 when they decide to make one by changing the lens .
And I agree about your rx100 vii comment. As nice as it is and I like it more than any other similar size camera, I feel the lens specially at the long end is not good enough to really make it worth it over the 240mm range of my S22 Ultra.
During my comparisons the results between the 2 were too close for my taste. Sure the sony handles better than a phone and has better af etc but I decided that the s22 ultra for 13mm shots and the rx10 IV for when I want a better camera are a better combo for travelling than having the rx100 vii
