Sony adds new stacked sensor to the new RX10 II opening up 4K video and improved burst performance.

An update to Sony's popular RX10 featuring a new stacked CMOS sensor with DRAM chip and supporting 4K and high-frame-rate (HFR) movie recording.

Here's our Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 II review, with new 20.2-million-pixel stacked sensor, 4K video capture and slow-motion video at up to 1000fps.

We’ve just returned from Sony’s New York City press conference where the company announced a trio of groundbreaking new cameras: the 42.4-megapixel, full frame Sony A7R II mirrorless camera, the 20MP Sony RX100 IV compact camera and the 20MP Sony RX10 II superzoomer.

Sony RX10 II is a 20.0MP Large Sensor Superzoom camera with a 1″ sized BSI-CMOS sensor and 24-200 mm F2.8 lens. Read our RX10 II review to find its pros and cons.

As you might expect, the Sony Cyber-shot RX10 II is the update to the original RX10 introduced in late 2013, and features a new 20-Mpix “stacked” one-inch type BSI-CMOS along with the familiar body and Zeiss-badged stabilized 24-200mm (equivalent f2.8) zoom. Read on to find out how well the sensor in this upgraded model performs.

Sony has released updates to its popular RX-series compact cameras, leaving the externals pretty much unchanged, but with a major update to their sensors. Both the RX100 IV and RX10 II feature a newly-developed 1inch 20MP stacked CMOS sensor, which allows them to capture 4K video and a whole lot more besides. We've had our hands on pre-production samples and you can see (and read) more after the jump

We've been toting around the Sony RX10 II for a little while now, testing its ability to capture 4K video, high speed stills and super slow motion video clips. And while a superzoom may not be DPReview writer Dan Bracaglia's first choice for his favored rock-and-roll and street subjects, he ultimately came around to the impressive capabilities of this camera.

While it's the pocketable 1" sensor enthusiast cameras that attract the most attention, there are quite a few long zoom models, as well. Whether you want 4K video, a lens reaching 600mm equiv or DSLR-style controls in an all-in-one package, you'll find one in our updated roundup of enthusiast long zoom cameras.

Sony’s cutting edge camera feels the need, the need for speed

The Long Zoom Compact category is probably the most diverse of any in our 2015 roundups. Within it are three separate sub-classes of camera, all of which offer 8x optical zoom or greater (up to a whopping 83x). Find out which we recommend. Read more

The Sony RX10 II is the follow-up to a camera we already thought quite highly of. While the 24-200mm F2.8 equivalent lens and external body design remain unchanged, the RX10 II sports a new stacked sensor and can record 4k video internally, with full sensor readout. It also features improved AF performance and a higher-res EVF, but is it worth the sticker price? Read more
