Which model is considered by photographers as the last "best" compact camera?
- FalconSensei 4y agoIf you do street photography, Ricoh grIII and grIIIx are the most beloved, afaik, because of being actually pocketable (while fuji x100v is not) and having the snap focus and snap distance priority. If not focusing on street, either Ricohs and Fujis are great
- piva00 4y agoRicoh's GR III and IIIx are really good.
- anta40 4y agoFuji X100 models (APSC), and Sony RX1R (fullframe). Fixed lens, obviously.
- egman_ekki 4y agoCanon Powershot G7 X Mark III is pretty decent.
- joos3 4y agoSeconding Ricoh GR III & IIIx. Absolute pleasure to use. They might release an updated version (called GRV given Japanese superstition around number 4?) in 2023 or 2024.
- rythie 4y agoThe Sony RX100 series would be in most top lists. Though personally I'm not sure why they went with a slower lens from the mark 6 onwards. The ZV1 continues with the a similar lens from earlier models. I have the RX100 mark iii, that's still quite good.
- FeistySkink 4y agoI second the RX100 series. As a step up, there is RX1 with a full frame and fixed lens. And HX99 the other way with a smaller sensor, but goes all the way up to 720mm.
- Existenceblinks 4y agoSame, RX100-M3 is my webcam now. (X-T30 for anything else)
- lm28469 4y agoThe fuji x100 lineup is real nice: https://jonasraskphotography.com/2020/02/04/fujifilm-x100v-first-look-preview-the-desert-island-camera/ https://jonasraskphotography.com/2020/02/04/fujifilm-x100v-f...
- petre 4y agoAlso the Ricoh GR. Great size and weight, great ootics, not laggy, not a 'system'.
- spython 4y agoSigma DP2M. As slow as a film camera. Bad screen. Battery lasts for just 100 photographs. Limited dynamic range. But a great combination of a sharp and tiny lens and unique Foveon sensor. If you get it right, it produces film-like images with amazing colors.
