Sony RX10 V Review for Wildlife Photographers

Don’t make the mistake I almost did.

When Sony asked if I wanted to review the new RX10 V, I almost passed. It’s a superzoom, and that’s not exactly my normal wheelhouse.

But I figured I’d at least give it a look.

And honestly? I was blown away.

I was not expecting a superzoom to:

  • Track blackbirds in flight
  • Use controls that feel like a full mirrorless camera
  • Offer serious subject-detection AF
  • Shoot at 30 FPS
  • Have a deep buffer
  • Deliver such a sharp 24-600mm lens

And that’s just the start.

No, it’s not replacing a full interchangeable-lens wildlife kit. But it may be the camera you take when you don’t want to carry the big gear, or the camera you hand to a spouse or travel companion who wants reach, speed, and simplicity without a pile of lenses.

Check out the review, and don’t miss the little behind-the-scenes clip at the very end.
