The Sony RX100 IV is the fourth instalment in what has become a favourite compact camera series. Since its beginnings in 2012, it has given us pocket-friendly models that offer image quality good enough to satisfy high-end DSLR-wielders on the days when taking out a large camera just isn’t on the cards. 

On those days I'm comfortable in knowing that if there's a perfect sunset, or a meaningful smile from a loved one, I will at least come home with a set of high quality images and video that rival my DSLR much more than they rival my phone.

This means the RX100 IV is likely to work perfectly as an all-purpose camera for about 90 per cent of people. If not more.

The camera I am listing here is in absolutely perfect condition except for a very faint, very light scratch a few millimetres long at the bottom of the rear LCD screen (see photo) which can only be seen in certain lights when the camera is off and in no way affects the camera’s performance or viewing.

Included with the camera is the original box, rechargeable battery, memory card, micro USB cable, wrist strap, instruction manual. Also an excellent quality Lowepro case which provides hardcover protection for the Mk IV in all conditions.

Purchased new from Photo Warehouse, this brilliant little camera has been used infrequently, and has been very well cared for.
