Choosing between camera size and image quality has always been one of the principal challenges in the photo world. Bigger cameras house bigger sensors that drink in more light and capture more resolution. Smaller cameras have smaller sensors that can’t compete—but they’re much easier to haul into the backcountry or on international adventures. It’s a given that you have to choose to prioritize one strength or the other; you can’t have both.
Which is why Sony caught a lot of people’s attention when it recently launched the RX1R III. At just one pound and 4.5 inches long, the RX1R is about half the weight and size of most high-end mirrorless cameras, but it’s packed with many of the current top-shelf features, including a fast 35mm F2.0 lens and the same full-frame 61-megapixel sensor as Sony’s flagship A7R V.
