Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV Compact Camera

Pocket size. Superspeed potential.

Reveal dramatic moments and marvels unseen by human eyes. Slip the superspeed new Sony RX100 IV from your pocket and unleash limitless imaging potential.

The world of superspeed shooting

Welcome to the incredible new world of superspeed shooting. Super slow motion—once primarily on pro cams. Thrilling fast-action images captured without distortion. Freedom to shoot in bright lighting conditions as never before. Enter the hidden realm of 1/32,000-second imagination. Wonders await you.

Shoot beyond human vision.

Super potential. Super reality.

Inside the compact RX100 IV is the world's first memory-attached 1.0-type stacked CMOS sensor — a remarkable advance in image shooting possibilities. Use it to reveal the wonders of up to 40x super slow motion, super-high-speed 1/32000 s Anti-Distortion Shutter and handy 4K movies. Now explore infinite imaging freedom beyond imagination.

Heart of super-high-speed shooting

World’s first 1.0-type stacked CMOS sensor with DRAM chip

Image sensor breakthrough brings you cutting-edge new functions—including up to 40x super slow motion and Anti-Distortion Shutter—that used to be available only with pro-use gear.

Stacked structure with DRAM chip (memory) attached

Newly developed image sensor design

Stacked under the pixel area, Hi-speed signal processing circuit of the new Exmor RS CMOS sensor is extended, and DRAM chip (memory) is attached to buffer huge image data.

High-speed readout

Overwhelmingly fast

Thanks to the stacked structure and quickly buffering DRAM chip (memory), the new Exmor RS CMOS sensor realizes over 5x faster readout speed than conventional models.

Anti-Distortion Shutter

Minimized image distortion

Sensor’s high readout speed—which enables the Anti-Distortion Shutter—greatly reduces image distortion caused by the rolling shutter phenomenon.

Free your imagination.

View life anew at 40x super slow motion.

Catch what unfolds unseen before you. Once primarily on pro cams, extremely high-frame-rate (HFR), movie recording of up to 960fps produces super slow motion of momentary movements invisible to human eyes. This feature has various settings to suit active subjects, so you can make pro-style movies of a “hidden” universe of movement all around you.

Super-high-speed shooting

A world of wonder shot at 1/32,000 sec.

The super-fast Anti-Distortion Shutter of up to 1/32,000 sec. allows you to capture extremely fast motion without image distortion caused by rolling shutter.

Shoot freely in extremely bright conditions.

1/32,000 sec. super-high-speed shutter

The super-fast Anti-Distortion Shutter achieves wide-range shooting coverage up to EV19. You can shoot photos in extremely bright conditions, even with defocused backgrounds.

High-speed continuous shooting

Up to 16fps continuous shooting without blackout

Despite high 20.1 MP count, the camera allows fast readout for continuous shooting up to 16fps without blackout — catching decisive moments in motion without missing some action.

Clip 4K movies in your pocket.

Give your creative powers free rein.

Enjoy clip 4K — super-real 4K movie feature for casual 4K shooting of up to 5 minutes. Pro-grade XAVC S codec ensures beautiful footage with high bitrate recording.

Bright, clear, more precise

Indispensable feature for serious photographers

Retractable XGA OLED Tru-Finder is a standout feature in a camera of this size. Treated with ZEISS T* Coating, this EVF provides corner-to-corner clear viewing.

Pro-inspired features for great enjoyment.

Essential gear for unforgettable pictures.

Rather than weighing you down with extras, the new pocket-sized RX100 IV gives you the pro-class essentials you need at hand. You’re equipped for the go-anywhere freedom to capture marvelous moments in memorable images.

Wide-ranging accessory selection

Pro-style options open up new possibilities.

Further, expand your shooting pleasure and give your photography the professional edge with accessories designed for RX series cameras, including a new soft leather carrying case.
