I've been wanting to buy one for years. After watched your vid, I finally pull the trigger and bought the m3. The outcome is way better then I thought it would be. Great Video!

[@dinosor8819]

Bought the rx100ii for $200, in mint condition a few years back. Took it to Europe twice & it’s been amazing.

[@user-ct8vh7js1h]

How?? Cheapest I could find was $600

[@Stallzyx]

​@@user-ct8vh7js1hRX100 Mark two brother. It goes up to seven

[@summersnowT-T]

same! All the ones I found were over 500💀

[@chad4826]

This is such a great camera. The best thing about it for me is that you can literally fit it in your pocket. It's that compact and doesn't weigh you down.

[@Fecho33]

I own the rx100iii it goes with me everywhere and because of that I love it, I can’t say the same of my Fuji x100t, I’m constantly forcing my self to take it instead the Sony but when I’m about to cross the door always go back for the Sony

[@yingTC701]

Thank you Carter! Such a great video and I am about to buy a rx100!

[@giorgiodalmonte3571]

Thank you Carter! This video is really worth it! I had an Rx100, I did a lot of photos, it was always with me, everywhere. Then I got a zv1, different focal lens, great video quality but same feel and soul. Talking about x100v, you r right, prices are getting crazy and it will be the same with the upcoming new one. I have a used x100t (500 euros) and it's mind blowing. They are all nostalgic about the first X100 series because in the new one there is too much sharpness, colors are different.. We need more video like this! Let's enjoy JOMO more (joy of missing out) and let's take more photos!

[@cartergray]

I couldn't agree more!! there are so many older cameras that are so fun and so capable of taking great photos!

[@ets160]

Absolute killer vid just copped one myself. Do you ever plan on uploading your presets cause those sample pics are amazing!

[@fretstain]

thoughts on the rx100 vs the gr ricoh?

[@null0byte]

Loving my RX100V. I don’t mind the lesser zoom, but love the fast aperture.

[@changez77654]

This needs saying - thank you for making this video.

[@calebellison6817]

I found one for $80 a few years ago and I use it all the time! Been posting the photos on my insta story, people even though I was shooting on a x100v. I think the original has a certain texture to the images that is really 'film like'.

[@cartergray]

it really does give it a great look to the photos!!

[@sodapopsophie]

what are ur settings for the photos ?

[@ChallKnowWhoItBe]

I have an rx100vii and it’s my favorite camera. The 24 to 200 optical zoom range is too much fun

[@yesteryearcameras]

Great video! I love the old original rx100, such a good camera and so small! If you play with the settings, you can get some really cool looks straight out of cam. Keep it up👍🏻

[@cartergray]

sweet thanks for the tip!! i'll play around with that for sure!

[@cuffgod]

Great message, even greater shots and production (also: you’re cute)

[@David_Trang]

what would be a good price for a used rx100 vii nowadays? i was thinking of buying one in perfect condition with an external mic and tripod for 900

[@lisklisk6947]

Great vid. Do you use and specific settings?

[@cartergray]

nothing specific, i usually just keep it in aperture priority to keep it easy and quick!

[@ed-schramm]

hey Carter, great video!

[@cinemabryce]

Awesome video bro I might have to scoop up an rx100!

[@cartergray]

thanks boss! do it, its so much fun!

[@Tannermyatt_]

I completely agree with you brotha! sooo JUST BOUGHT ONE haha

[@agentlevanto2964]

Totally agree - I actually prefer using older cameras, perverse I know. The Fuji XE2 is a fraction of the x100V, images are great…Lumix LX100 is amazing too…plus you’re not carrying around an expensive camera and worrying about it

[@cartergray]

yes those are great cameras too!! hopefully I'll get to give them a try some day!

[@_akirauehara]

im 100000% copping one

[@KeesKouwenberg]

I own an RX100 (I) for a few years now. Bought it for I think around 200 euros, just to have an edc cam. And it's stil my edc cam. I love it. Don't need a II, or III, or IV...... The I does all I want. For professional shoots I have my EOS 5D MkIII, and an X-pro1 for when I 'just go somewhere and take a cam with me'. But the RX100 in in my pocket 24/7/365.

[@mar_cel]

I do have the rx 100 at home, but i like the samsung nx 100 more. Its a bigger camera, and has interchangeble lenses (i just have a 20-50mm). And i think its more than enough for 2024

[@Cthames123]

I agree with several points. The jpeg film profiles are great, but waaaaayyyy more is made of this than what is really there for me. I'm one like you who sees no point in running out to drop ~$2k on a new camera, (never mind the lenses), when the camera you have will let you do this to some extent, (in camera) or this can be adjusted in post. I agree having the biggest, baddest, sharpest thing out there has it's place but not absolutely requisite to take great photos and videos and enjoy the photography experience. KZbin and every camera manufacturer have us decided into thinking that camera or lens of yester year no longer takes great photos and you need to drop a few thousand to recapture the experience.

[@jaspervos4345]

I owned both. Owned, because last weekend I sold my RX100m3. It is a very nice little camera which i enjoyed using on a trip to NYC and on the go back home. However, I did not like some things. When on, the camera always has the fragile tube extended. For me, always having a camera on and in hand, that extension is a proper no-no. Also, I did not really like the controls and menus, even after customization. Did not really like the RAW files too much. Yes they were good, but not to the level of my Fuji X100s. I kept my slower, less pixel X100s. Because shooting with it is addictive, the camera is always ready to go and the RAW and JPG files ar beautiful. The size is a thing, though. So, in short; for all the people liking the RX100 over the X100; buy a Ricoh GR. Maybe I should done that too.

[@BUCKSHOTSTV]

I have the rx100ii and the x100v. The Sony is such a mood killer to me to shoot with. I just started playing with it again, hence me watching this video, but I just prefer shooting with dials on the Body. That feels more natural to me since I learned photography on film before digital cameras were out. Plus I also look into the evf always. It’s weird looking at an lcd screen with the camera held away from me. I’m just honestly surprised the camera turned on after being in a drawer for the last 8+ years

[@jaspervos4345]

@@BUCKSHOTSTV One good customization is using the center button for Exposure. You hit it and then turn the ring around it. For the rest, it will always be a super quality pocket camera, with not enough fun.

[@whatsgood2800]

I had the first version of this camera but then I sold it and got the 2nd version for the tilting screen

[@Oceanix__]

Can i please know the Track name @2:10 it's beautiful 💙

[@cuffgod]

This is epic

[@cartergray]

no you're epic

[@paramveersingh9563]

Rx100 7 or zv1?

[@chonglouis6207]

can you share the preset that you used 🥲

[@jimbimedia]

Nice camera, but I shall get an x100vi the moment it shoes up

[@Omarsimplelife]

Mine is in the mail as we speak 😁

[@kamimcmmm]

Unfortunately sold my RX100 m1 last year and immediately regretted it :(

[@x0ye]

Which version is this m1/m2/m3?

[@null0byte]

m1

[@JackBurton-qp4hc]

Nah, for a 1inch sensor I'd have my Fujifilm X10, I still have it for sentimental value. It got me into Fuji cameras.

[@jesuspatricknieves2912]

how i wish the next ricoh GR have a "slow lens" but can zoom.

[@TheSC20k]

You could get a Sony ZV-1/RX100 III-V. Yes, the sensor is much smaller so DR will be worse, but the lens is pretty bright so at least you won't have to worry about high ISOs in usual circumstances.

[@agentlevanto2964]

Check out the Ricoh GXR… or Ricoh Caplio GX100… very cool cameras that have zoom lenses

[@SneakyCaleb]

It’s definitely not better than a Fuji x100 but it’s cool as well. I’ve had a bunch of x100V’s and the F and S. Also if you wanna shoot film cheap get a half frame camera. Thank me later. Also just get an older x100 if you want one bad.

[@Heartbraker69228]

Shooting with A7iii and had some cool photos with it for shure, but I'm planning to buy that small camera mainly for shooting street photos and just daily photos. I realized that even when i carry my camera with me I don't want to attract to much attention and end up shooting on my phone or not shooting at all 🥲. (Lately tried shooting b&w film and i loved it, tho it's expensive and time consuming to process)
