Exactly, which is what I want. The Sony RX100 Mk II is 28mm, at its widest, which isn't wide enough for me
JasonG,
Sony RX100 III is 24mm at its widest.
See attached file.
Also, there is no such camera as: Sony RX100 Mk II.
There is Sony RX100 II, but don't know why you add "Mk" to model name.

No. 28mm isn't wide enough for my tastes climbing. Would be interested in Mk III or IV
RX100 III is 24mm not 28mm.
Are you referring to:
canon g7x mark iii
or
Olympus mark iii
I think you are referring (canon g7x mark iii), because Olympus Mark III is a DSL.

I was hoping that they would have come way down in price by now, at least for the Mk III. But no.....
You mean RX100II?
Those are $110.00

Don't get the latest RX100.
All you need is RX100 III or RX100 IV
RX100V has terrible battery life.
RX100VI has 2nd worse battery life.
RX100 III and RX IV differ by only RX100 is 1080P and RX100 is 4K video.
I forgot to add and this is important. Only RX100III and RX IV is good for low light, because of their F1.8-2.8

I wish I could convince the finance minister to get a new RX100.... but probably won't happen.

I've been following this thread and appreciate the inputs. My mantra has always been that the best camera is the one in your hand when the right moment arrives. A fancy, large camera that gets left at home or basecamp isn't going to be of much use to me for climbing and outdoor activities. I want the best performance possible from something that will still fit in my pocket and is relatively rugged - I want it to be OK if dropped occasionally, resist dust and moisture well enough to not need to be coddled in its own case all the time, has decent battery life in cold/chilly conditions. I have had the Lumix100, but eventually dust got into the housing and caused problems w the lens motor. This was fixed by the mfr but problems returned. It's basically toast at this point, but I did get a number of good years out of it.
Thoughts?
Thx
Well, another option is a GoPro, but that is more "video" focused and less "photo". For me, I will look into getting a Sony RX100 model. I don't think any of the water, dust proof cameras are good. As I said, I had the Olympus TG6 and it was the worse camera I ever owned. I'm glad Best Buy had a 14 day return policy.
Unless others can suggest a good water/dust proof.

I have a Nikon D5500 with 10-24mm lens. Amazing picture, I'll shoot RAW and then editing in Lightroom. But, it's a large camera. Not very heavy, but just large. On one of my expeditions, person had a Sony RX100 III. We did share emails and he was kind to share his pictures from from the trip, again, he used the RX100 III. Amazing. Pictures were great. He told me that pictures in low-light will not be as perfect as with the Nikon D5500, but quality of the RX100 is great. And you can shoot RAW. I have been looking and RX100 III got for $350-$425 on Ebay.
I also looked into Olympus TG-6, terrible!!! JPG and RAW, just terrible.

Go a bit later in the season, bring about 1/2 of food for your trip. Probably at least 50% of people on West Butt will leave early or bail from 14K camp, most of people leaving basecamp and 14K will have a ton of food and will try to leave it.
The reason people don't summit is not because they are hungry, but because they did not train enough.
Glassgowkiss,
When you say "Go a bit later in the season" what time frame are you suggesting?
Anyone Manaslu in 2021
in The rest of the US and International.

Anyone planning to climb Manaslu in 2021?
If yes, what logistics company are you using?
