Sony has announced its successor, the RX100 Mark IV. Featuring more megapixels, a faster lens, and an all new imaging pipeline, the RX100 Mark IV is, according to Sony marketing literature*, “The best compact we’ve ever made this week.”

Sony engineers have been working for days improving upon the already very good RX100 Mark III, and their hard work has paid off–the Mark IV is a worthy successor to the RX100 Mark III in nearly every way, and owners of the Mark III will be sorely tempted to upgrade.

Here’s a handy chart detailing the differences between the RX100 Mark III and RX100 Mark IV:

"Featuring more megapickels" I'm sorry I couldn't help but lose it. No offense though. I've heard a lot about this camera, pretty neat.

Aren't these the kind of markets that are ruining Sony's profit into an expense? How well does Sony do in cameras nowadays?

The RX100 iii is an absolute beast of a camera so any marginal improvement would be welcome.

I'm curious about the NP-BX2 listed as the packaged battery, and what improvements it might bring.

Edit: mine comes with a BX1 perhaps it's backwards compatible.

wait.... is this fake news?
Many articles on that site are fake, and I can't find any other sources online of RX100 MK4 announced....

officially announced, but seems a little bit different from the spec op showed...

 

http://www.theverge.com/2015/6/10/8761045/sony-rx100-mark-4-rx10-mark-2-a7r-mark-2-price-announcement

 

besides, the source article was dated on 24th May 2014, while Sony just announced it today....

The camera also records internal 4K video. Very nice. 

 

EDIT: It's nearly $1000 YIKES. But I guess that is the price to pay for the best compact camera. It does 1080p960fps too. Wow.

OP, this isn't even news. It's more of a spoof. The camera actually got quite a few improvements, some substantial like the new sensor with built in DRAM.

Fake spec. The camera got numerous internal upgrades. Nothing really wrong with the body, so no improvements made.

The OPs link may be a parody site - but this is an official release from Sony:

I know this is a real product, but the point is this post is centered around incorrect information from a parody site. That does not qualify as tech news.
