Sony RX100 Mk IV :: First Look

Sony just released the new RX 100 Mark IV which is the latest offering in the series of compacts. What Sony have done with this series of cameras is nothing short of amazing as they use the line to see how many professional features they can fit into a compact, point and shoot design.

I will be doing a more complete review of the RX100 Mark IV in a few weeks once I've had a chance to put the camera through some adequate testing. In this video I'll go ahead an explain what's new, give you and overview and show you the new camera!

My name is Ted Forbes and I make videos about photography. I’ve been making photographs most of my life and I have a tremendously deep passion for photography that I want to share with you on YouTube.

The Art of Photography is my channel and I produce photography videos to provide a 360 degree look into the world of making images. We all want to get better so lets do this together!

I make videos covering famous photographers, photography techniques, composition, the history of photography and much more.

I also have a strong community of photographers who watch the show and we frequently do social media challenges for photographers to submit their own work. I feature the best and most interesting on the show when we do these so come check it out and get involved!

So come check it out! If you’re a fan of DigitalRev, Fro Knows Photo (Jared Polin), Matt Grainger (That Nikon Guy) or Tony Northrup - you’ll love The Art of Photography. I make video’s giving you a deeper dive into photography techniques, composition and history to compliment the other channels you love to watch.

I always enjoy the variety of your content, Ted. 
Whether it be biographies of photographers, Adobe software, photo theory, or even a review of a new camera, I'm always watching.
Keep it up and keep evolving!

As a new viewer I found your "first look" more informative than a number of other "reviews". Thanks.

[HighFrequencyArt]

Your knowledge set is very fluent. I learn a lot every time I watch your videos. Keep up the great work.

[ZackGeragosian]

Wow fantastic video! Gave me information I had no clue about yet still kept it simple enough for a novice like me to understand. Good job! Really wish I had the money for this camera as it seems like an overall great camera for its size. Portability is really important to a lot of people so I think Sony is definitely on to something with this lineup.

[gaatzaat]

Sounds great... I look forward to the full review!

[SpaceZombie]

Great video! as all of your videos, quality stuff! love the variety!!

Thanks Ted. Can't wait for the full review!

A very informative well constructed first look review.. Subscribed! I am a beginner photographer and I am struggling to decide between the MK III and the MK IV, waiting for the full review!

[SalwanJBinni]

Thanks for the useful initial review...Sony is really great!

[barilj]

I love the appearance and layout of your channel. Thank you a whole lot for the inspirational effort.

Great now I have a decision between the GR D II and this?! I'd love to see a comparison between the two compact giants.
Great vid good stuff!!!

[JoshKaufmanstuff]

Great first look, I just got mine. 
I had no idea that the 'stacked sensor' design also allowed better low light performance!

Can you spend some time on the HFR part, I'm still trying to tame it.

Thanks!
I can't wait for the full review!

One beautiful camera, might need to get this as a secondary to my Canon 5D Mark III.

[Amyjo_lovesmusic]

Nice review! I just got the Miii this week and think it will be perfect for me. It is nice to see the upgrades on the Miv, but it was not worth the extra $$ for me at this time. I hope Sony does a firmware upgrade with the last 2 items you mentioned!!! Those 2 changes would make me love my Miii even more!

[Bornmirri]

YES! This camera seems so cool, like the next LX100, a small FZ1000.

[JusticeFreedomDestin]

I'm glad to see a fast turnaround on the RX100 IV first look. Like you mentioned, I really want to see Sony release a firmware update to the RX100 iii for the evf and the monitor. I'm waiting for the rx100 iii to come down in price a bit before I can even think about picking one up; sadly, the rx100 iv doesn't have much better features to put me over to get the mk iv versus the mk iii, but I would be very interesting in getting a mk iii for the right price.

Ted, not related to the RX100M4, but I'm interested to know what your thoughts and opinions are on the Ricoh GR?

[DRC]

Really enjoyed your review, very enthusiastic. 
I am looking for a camera for an upcoming holiday in 3-4 weeks time, funny enough, Los Angeles, just like you. 
I think I have settled on this, 99 percent certain.

[KatBurnsKASHKA]

Hey Ted, did you ever post a video with your hands on experience with this camera after some testing? Please share the link if so, I can't find it on your channel.
