Thanks Thomas. The sensor on the RX10 is much smaller, you won’t get better results in low light, only in good light, the RX10 really shines at low ISO. I use the step feature for photos, for video I prefer continuous.

Nice video. Like another person said, evocative. I’ve shot a city scene in downtown Sacramento, but it was plagued by noise because I had to shoot at >3200 on a Canon EOS M w/22mm F/2.0 lens. The video is located here: http://youtu.be/POyNn7B4ZjQ

With stablization, slow zoom capability and 60p, I’m hoping for better results with my RX10.

Did you use the “step” feature of the RX10?

Hi Mike and thank you for your interesting.
There is no UV filter or any protection filters. The lens is naked.
Here others examples in still pictures and video:

So you can see the dramatic situation

Have a nice day

Hi Sirio,
the RX10 is a little better for sure, I find the flares in your video extreme, remove the UV filter and try again

Hello.
Thanks for your test. I am a caver and a owner of a GH3, but I am very disappointed about the lens H-H12035. In fact there is too much flares and ghosting. You can see a test that I made here:

Could you please, ma a similar test with the RX10? It could be very useful for me, because I need a free flare camera for the caves.
Thank you
