one of the greatest but also most underrated point and shoot cameras

back in 2012 Zony(yes ZONY) dropped possibly one of the greatest little cameras ever to be released. it’s almost unheard of to have a Full Frame point and shoot that sports a 35mm f2. That’s no ordinary 35mm f2 either, that is a Zeiss Sonnar glued to this tiny little camera.

Pros: Small, Quiet, Autofocus, Digital, Zeiss Sonnar 35mm f2, 24mp sensor w/ 14+ stops of Dynamic Range, Macro mode.

Cons: slow autofocus, expensive, electronic connections sometime struggle to talk when turning on resulting in E:61: error code. (there are work arounds) The mk1 doesn’t have a viewfinder so you have to buy one separately.

the copy i got came with the external view finder.

after shooting with the camera i have no issues pushing the cons right under the rug because the images that you are capable of capturing with it are beautiful! i treat this camera as if it was a point and shoot film camera, so the slow Autofocus doesn’t bug me too much. its an almost perfect documentary camera.

Sony released 3 versions of this camera:

Rx1 (2012): 24mp with 14+ stops of dynamic range

Rx1r (2013): Same sensor, as the original it just doesn’t have the Anti- Aliasing filter. removing that filter adds sharpness and resolution.

Rx1rmk2 (2015) (a mouthful): adds a 42mp sensor, updated Af, and a built in view finder. pretty much a Sony A7R2 in the body of a point and shoot camera.

It might look like the moon, but it's actually the sun through the clouds on a cold Winter as the fog is coming in. This is shot at about 10:30 in the morning

6/14/2024 - What redeems a bustling city? A good hard rain.

Street photography becomes so tedious when I'm in a busy city. A lot of photographers crave the chaos but I cannot relate to that desire. My abilities of perception are greatly reduced, and I'm forced to be too reactionary. Rather than noticing small moments and details, I'm only focused on what's happening in front of me.

Rain changes all of that. Rain subdues a chaotic city like the stern words of a father subdue his misbehaving child.

This is why I recommend every photographer invest in one fully weather resistant camera. Walking with a camera in the rain with no umbrella is a spiritual experience. Rain redeems the chaos of a city.
