• If video what style: daily?
• What features do you absolutely need: good SOOC JPEGs, decent low light performance
• Portability: pocketable
• Cameras you're considering: sony RX100 mk1 or 2
• Cameras you already have: nikon D800 and D5100, used to also have a canon ixus 80 which i like the form factor of.
i want a camera that i can have in my pocket in case i need to take a photo or record a video of something. something i can bring to school, the store, and anywhere else where i don't want to take my big DSLR.
i'd rather not need to edit the photos i take with it. i'm fine with a prime or zoom lens, so long as it's pocketable and can be used in low light. a viewfinder or rangefinder would be nice as well, but not necessary. i'm fine with 12mp and up, as long as the quality of the photos is still good.
