The RX100 VI is also able to record super slow-motion video at either 240 fps, 480 fps, or 960 fps. The RX100 VI boasts impressive technical specs but it's also easy to use. It has a touch shutter that can be activated by tapping the back-LCD screen, a zoom lever with customizable zoom speeds and an LCD that can be rotated 180 degrees upward or 90 degrees downward for a variety of shooting angles.

There is also a Monitor Auto Off function that boosts max number of still images by up to 30%. The camera is also Wi-Fi, NFC, and Bluetooth compatible which makes sharing your photos easy.
