The only thing missing from this camera review is the obvious - no mention at all of still pictures taken from the CAMERA. Its not a video camcorder, its a camera and you failed to mention or show any still pictures taken with this CAMERA. No shots of it in bright sun, or low light, no print reproduction - nothing.

For people who really care about quality in stills in a compact I think the RX is still the way to go, especially since the 1/2.3 sensor size in the HX really doesn’t make it much better than modern smartphones. That said, the zoom on the HX is crazy and the feature set Sony crammed into this thing is fantastic. For those who want a small and light travel camera that can zoom reliably the HX is amazing for its price!

Hey, im not sure if you´re still active here. But I want to buy a point and shoot for concerts. My first thought would be the RX100 but I tested this one (HX99) in the electronic shop and I think, good zoom would be important? because I cant stay in line for every concert at 8 am. What would you recommend - because i need good quality and good zoom. Also i Have an Iphone 15 Pro - so the Fokus would be on Photos.

I was looking for a new vlogging camera on B&H, came across the HX99, and decided "Hmm, that seems like a good deal. Let me check KZbin to make sure this is what I need." And lo and behold, what should appear first but your review? I legitimately said out loud "Yes! The Everyday Dad made a video on it!" Your videos always help me with deciding what cameras I need. I ended up getting a Lumix G85 based on your recommendations, and I absolutely love it. I'm most likely going to save up some money to buy this too. Thanks, man!

I purchased this camera as soon as it was released, couldn't wait. It had everything I wanted in a compact camera plus it captured RAW images, yippeeeee? Well NO. OK it shoots RAW but no support in Lightroom or Photoshop, yet, but worst of all was the image quality. It wan't just poor it was abysmal. Even at 100iso there was noise visible unless you were in very bright sunlight. I compared the HX99 with my old SX260HS and the 260 came out tops for image quality EVERY TIME. After five days trying and trying hoping it was me at fault I sent it back for a refund. If you value image quality don't waste your money on this camera.

I wouldn’t use this for primarily indoor videos. I’d get a used rx100v or you could get a brand new a5100 for less then this camera right now with the holiday deals. This will have a LOT of noise indoors and I would only really recommend it for majority outdoor use.

This one was in my radar up until today when I got a great deal on the rx100 v. I have the new Canon SX740 which is very similar to this so I have the 4k super zoom travel camera covered. That Canon SX740 is a bit of a sleeper. May be one of the best values around. Seems this may be a close second or maybe a bit better. I was impressed with the Canon on a recent trip to Disney.

Only complaint about these is that the screen will scratch over the years because it is flush with the back.
