A year after the release of the Sony RX100 VI, Sony now announces the RX100 VII, the 7th generation of this popular and groundbreaking camera series.<\/p>\n

This model is very similar to the Sony RX100 VI, it has the same lens 24-200mm, the same 1″ sensor and a very similar body.<\/p>\n

\"Sony<\/a><\/p>\n

So what has changed:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Lower minimum ISO (down to 64).<\/li>\n
  2. Faster continuous shooting (up to 90fps)<\/li>\n
  3. Improved processor which makes the camera faster.<\/li>\n
  4. Faster and more accurate auto focus. Eye tracking on video.<\/li>\n
  5. Mic Input<\/li>\n
  6. Video stabilization.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    For underwater photography these 2 cameras are very much alike but improved auto focusing is always a blessing. If you are looking for a new camera to buy, this would be the one. If you already have a RX100 VI, I wouldn’t rush to upgrade.<\/p>\n

    Ikelite have already announced that their RX100 VI housing<\/a> will be compatible with the VII. Fantasea will soon announce theirs and surely Nauticam<\/a> will follow shortly.<\/p>\n

    The housings can be seen here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
