Deal Details
Best price I found by a lot. I was about to spend more than this in a used one. It's from a third party, but you can return it to Walmart if there's an issue.

This camera's two years old now. I keep thinking the VIII has got to be right around the corner, but who really knows.

Sold by Mastertronics, which is not authorized Sony retailer, and also seller has poor reputation of selling refurbished items.

If it's a refurb or non-US model it's going back. Walmart is 10 minutes from my house.

I know that it is not 1:1, but I have the RX100-VI and honestly it is a horrible camera. I really wanted to like it since the low light is amazing, but it takes horrible point and shoot. Maybe I have a bad camera since I picked it up as a floor model from ebay, but it was in perfect (visual) condition.

It does take good videos though when it's not overheating.

I had a IV that my wife accidentally launched about 15 feet. Before that it took great pictures.

LOL. I hope that she was okay during the fall(?).

It takes fair photos of landscape, static objects... and it is sharp, but IDK... it just sucked for everything else. Don't try to take a photo of anything moving (kids, pets, anything).

Again, the 4K video was good, from what I remember, but the camera shut down indoors (68-70F) after approximately 5-8 minutes of continuous recording. It's been sitting on the shelf now for like 2 years in case I try using it.

I even bought a darn diving case and went diving with it once... and a few snorkeling trips. The GoPro and YI video was used due to how bad it was due to heat + fog.

Nah, I set it ON her purse instead of IN her purse. She picked up her purse really fast and launched it.

I have the VII camera and it's very good. The issues above with the VI camera noted above have all been fixed.

I had a IV that I sold last year. For kids I had to use S mode and set like 1/500. I wish it had a mode like Nikons have where you can set Auto ISO and manual Shutter and Aperture, that is great for shooting kids and moving subjects. As iPhone cameras improve I didn't find much benefit of the Sony.

Gonna go ahead and downvote myself. Got the camera today and at the very least the box has been through hell. It's taped shut with packing tape.

Three years later this did not age well
