I don't want to be the guy to throw the turd into the punch bowl. But if any early adopters want to go on a photo walk with me when the new camera comes out and loan me their "old" RX100 while they shoot with their new one, I'd like to suggest that the photographs will be nearly indistinguishable.
I'm not saying that people shouldn't constantly buy new cameras (someone needs to keep this economy going), but I swear I read this same thread a year ago..... and a year before that..... and a year before that. And one would assume that if a real game-changer camera keeps coming out once a year, that 4 or 5 years later, the difference between the cameras would be like the difference between black and white. And yet I keep buying state of the art cameras and the output in real world conditions shows me nearly identical results to what I was getting with cameras from 4 or 5 years ago.
Yes, if you pixel peep, you'll see differences. And if you shoot brick walls and test charts, there may be some critical improvement
, but seriously.....y'all need to check yo'self.
the above was written when Luke was feeling too lean in the wallet to even consider a new camera, but he's still pretty certain that any new RX100 won't be that much better than the old one, but fantasize away about this new miracle cam from Sony.
