Experience with SONY RX10 Mark IV Camera

I just came back from a short 4D3N trip to Bukit Tinggi, Indonesia yesterday (09.12.2019).  I decided to travel light for this trip, hence, I had requested for a loan unit of SONY RX10 Mark IV (RX10M4), a solid and smart all-in-one compact camera with pro-style operability, which packs enough groundbreaking innovations for even professionals to marvel at, from ultra-fast AF system of its kind, to legendary optics throughout its 25x zoom range, to extraordinarily precise and powerful image processing.  Please click HERE for details about the camera.

​The RX10M4 comes with Eye AF for human and animal, making it a great travelling camera for street as well as wildlife photography, especially for those wanting to have minimal gear.  The camera also comes with high-speed 24fps shooting with AF/AE tracking and silent electronic shutter when silence is required.  What intrigued me the most is the 35mm equivalent rancge of 24mm-600mm and aperture range from f/2.8 -f/4, which had allowed me to capture some birds during the trip.  I took 3 nos. of SONY FP-NW50 batteries along with me, which could last me about half-a-day of heavy shooting. 

In summary, the SONY RX10M4 is surely something worth considering if you are looking for an all-in-one pro-level camera from SONY. The only downside is the battery life 

Here are some of the bird images taken with the RX10M4.
