want to enjoy the benefit of a full-frame digital photography with professional features but don’t want the associated bulk that comes with powerful DSLRs? the Sony Cyber-shot RX1 Digital Camera is the camera that will fit that bill. packed within its palm-sized body is a 35mm full-frame 24.3-megapixel Exmor CMOS sensor (we called it ‘a little guy with a big heart’), the RX1 is a totally capable camera with features that include Carl Zeiss Sonnar T 35mm F2 prime lens, ISO up to 25,600, a 3.0-inch TFT LCD, electronic stabilization, built-in pop-up flash, full HD video recording up to 50p, and a new Multi Interface Shoe compatible with optional external flash, electronic viewfinder, optical viewfinder and clip-on LCD monitor. from its Cyber-shot branding, you already know that this camera is anything but bulky – in fact, it measures a super compact 113.3 x 65.4 x 69.6mm (4.5″ x 2.6″ x 2.8″) and weighs in at a mere 453 grams (tad below one pound) – allowing you to tote around on daily basis to capture those moments, professionally. all told, there is a price to pay for such power and convenience: expect it to set you back at a DSLR-price range of $2,800 a pop. dropping in at Sony retail stores and authorized dealers this November. in the mean time, do check out a small gallery, available after the break.
