An excellent location for judging a camera's exterior, low-light, and moire performance. The Sony RX100II performed very well in all cases.

Nice video Dan -

Are you shoting 60p, and what settings have you ended up with - there are so many "tweaks" in this tiny little monster, I'm STILL fiddling with things like the DRO...

I have had the "Mk1" RX100 for a while, and the MkII looks like a nice update and better in low light so far. Really scary how much is packed into this little package!

Happy to hear you enjoyed the video Dave.

I've settled on 60p, Vivid, +2 Saturation, -1/3 exterior Exposure, and DRO Auto. I'm finding the RX100 a pleasure to shoot. Surprising low-light performance too.

Best of luck.
