I want a digital camera for recreational use, and to capture the occasional beautiful snapshot, for things like sunrises and sunsets. I'd also like to take picture of people, like at drama festival or a concert. It has to be compact enough to travel with, not a large clunky camera.
My choice for a compact digital camera was the Sony Cyber-shot DSC RX100 II. I feel like this was the best camera for me because it isn't overly complicated to use, doesn't have a bad glare when taking pictures in bright light. The picture it takes also have a high resolution, are bright and saturated. It also has an electric viewfinder and a microphone for taking videos. At 14 mega pixels, the Cyber-shot has a leading edge. Overall I think this is a remarkable camera.
I found a review for the camera on this website and it's generally positive. The camera received a 9 on image quality, an 8 on performance and a 8.2 overall. There is even a video showing and explaining more of it's features. The review says that the zooming lens is quiet, but the camera's slightly slippery body doesn't have a good grip. If you overlook that one small flaw, you are left with a good camera.
The prices for the Cyber-shot vary with different retailers, with the most expensive being Amazon at $749.10, with Henry's and Best Buy being $649.99. This is regular price, so buying from Amazon would cost more. So the camera is not as expensive as other cameras with the same features.
