Definitely check out the LightPix Labs M20 for Sony. It's a small $150 flash that: 1) Isn't much bigger than the Godox Lux Junior. It's tiny! 2) The trigger lasts a LONG time and is rechargeable. 3) If you use Eneloop Pro rechargeable batteries like I do, you can keep the batteries in the flash and just recharge the flash and trigger with a single cable. 4) It has TTL for Sony. Off-camera tiny flash with TTL and leaf shutter is amazing. I feel like a future RX1 R III + that flash is an endgame travel setup.

I got the RX1r II this week, used in mint condition. Coming from the a7r V it almost feels like shooting analog, it renders beautiful images with that soft color contrast but sharp edges. The feel of the build is amazing and luckily I have quite small hands. Getting used to slowing down and not relying on the ai autofocus! The position of the pop-up EVF is so much better than on the a7r and a7c.
@maxupnorth
how sick would it be if sony just refreshed the camera, kept the lens, kept the sensor, but crammed in some better AF and usb c charging. I know it won't happen but a person can dream.
@CoenradJMorgan
Love the battery solution, if the RX line of cameras has one day one issue, it’s that battery.
@viki_ri2752
I own RX1R and I love it. There is something magical about it...but not the battery life 😅
@peterwilliams2889
How sick would it be if Sony gave an honest update on the status of the RXI RIII?
@sempergrumpy_
Ive owned this camera since release and use it for the same purposes as you. I personally use the camera in raw+jpeg and compose in black & white.
@openeye126
Hello there, could you tell us how quickly the Rx1R2 boots up ( from switching on to taking the first image) thanks !!!!
@LMNDZ513
Awesome stuff Magic..the short and practical answer to the question is it worth it in 2024?..in my opinion is no..the main reason for me is the price point!..that fact that this camera is still over $3K US is crazy!..and yes its more than capable of course..but that price point I can't get over..the tech is older and AF, processor, 42 megapixel is a nice sweet spot..etc but for that amount you might as well get the newer bodies in terms of everything tech wise and great overall camera which is like the A7R5...now if it was ever on sale or Sony decides to drop the price by even half..than only maybe it would be worth it..hahaha me personally I hope they do bring this camera back to get into the "X100 market"..
@ThePhotographyPivot
Where did you get the thumb grip. I can not find one that fit
@goemboeck
RX1r is my dream camera, in second comes the RX1r II. I'll most likely buy RX1r as soon as I have some extra in my pocket.
@apwip
Magic, how about A7CR and Sony Zeiss 35mm f2.8? No need for RX1R III?
@Granturion
The used prices are still insane so thanks for this video 🙂
@KEHA14
I would love to have this camera but the price for the fact that it's no longer supported and older is just impossible. But I love the look of that lens and the colors
@fanfan0312
Hi there, can I please know the thumb grip you were using in this video? Thanks!
@patrick66058
Have the Sony RX1RII and it is amazing for everyday photography and street photography I like it for the small body and images that can come out of it. It has its downsides though. Think with a Sony A7C and the Sony 35MM F2.8 Zeiss lens you will get really close results with older lens that optically is about the same as the one that is attached to the RX1 camera's. wont have a leaf shutter though. The newer A7CII and A7CR seems to have replaced the RX line of camera's. Dont really see Sony making a new RX1 at this point. mainly because the F2 lens on the RX1RII is made by Zeiss and now Sony is making their own lenses. All the lenses that did not end up being on a Sony RX1RII have probably been used on Zeiss ZX1 camera's which is a camera made by Zeiss them selves with the F2 lens on the body just like the RX1RII used to have. 🙃
@stuartmarven
Fantastic little camera.
@Benjamin_Jehne
I would love to see a new version of this camera. I don’t know when they ended the production but the oldest ones are from 2016. It was just presented in 2015, but because of a construction issue, customers have to wait till 2016. The thing is, I want to have new one with this old sensor. So they could leave everything line it was, but just updating it with the new co-processor for the better AI and some better video specs. But the rest, leave it like it is/was.
@ChrisM-yq2pq
I wish you shot backlight with flash. It’s a way to see high speed flash with leaf shutter
