Sony RX1 worse than the NEX7?

Thanks from me too for the information Dan, and also for the link to the blog - which was very informative.  Now all I need is some money!

Unless you want the smallest camera at any price!

thanks to Thanko price of the smallest camera may not be the limiting factor:



reduced to 5,980 円 here!

There's also the Fuji cameras (X-Pro1/X-E1) to make your choices more complicated. If you use RAW or the recent C1 version I'd wager you get files that are at least as detailed as the NEX-7.

The fuji options are tough because currently raw conversion is still lacking even with the new c1.  It's a tough call because what if thats as good as it gets?

[Markus Blaurock]

Very true. I actually like the C1 raw output and as you also mentioned this might be as good as it'll get. That said I'd wager the images out of a good C1 conversion still hold up pretty well to a lot of other systems including the NEX.

Here's a full resolution shot out of the X-E1 (using an old 50mm Olympus lens):

It's not an earth shattering shot but personally I find it gives quite a good amount of fine details.
