White Knight Press has just released Photographer’s Guide to the Sony DSC-RX100 V, a full-color, 246-page guide book covering all features and operations of the RX100 V compact digital camera.
This book is a complete guide to the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 V camera, one of the most advanced, but still pocketable, cameras available. With this book, author Alexander White provides users of the RX100 V with a manual covering all aspects of the camera’s operation. Using a tutorial-like approach, the book shows beginning and intermediate photographers how to take still images and record video with the RX100 V, and explains when and why to use the camera’s many features.
The book provides details about the camera’s automatic and advanced shooting modes as well as its menu options for shooting, playback, setup, and using Wi-Fi connections with in-camera apps.
The book has nearly 500 color photographs that illustrate the camera’s controls, display screens, and menus. The images also provide examples of photographs taken using the RX100 V’s Scene mode, with settings optimized for subjects such as landscapes, sunsets, portraits, and action shots; and the Creative Style and Picture Effect menu options, with settings that alter the appearance of images.
The book also provides introductions to topics such as street photography, astrophotography, infrared photography, and digiscoping.
The book includes a full discussion of the video features of the RX100 V, which can shoot HD and 4K (ultra-HD) movies, and which offers manual control of exposure and focus during movie recording. The book explains the camera’s numerous features that are useful for professional-level videography, including Picture Profiles that allow adjustment of settings such as gamma curve, black level, knee, and detail. The book provides detailed information about recording 4K video to an external video recorder using the “clean” video output from the camera’s HDMI port.
The paperback version is available now for $24.95 ($9.91 for Kindle) in the United States through https://www.amazon.com/Photographers-Guide-Sony-DSC-RX100-Pocketable-ebook/dp/B01NAGS8P9/. The book is also available in PDF format and in downloadable versions for the Kindle, Nook, and iPad. More details are available at http://whiteknightpress.com

DPReview.
With latest cameras major review sites turned into some new marketing department of camera manufacturers. They literally want to push camera into your throat.
Anyone saw deals on this camera during last days?
HOW TO GET AUDIO WITH THE SONY RX100 V
More samples
Thanks for posting.
1/250 sec is a little high for 24fps to look good. But at least it works.
So, correct information instead of bullshit written above
Sony PR can put anything into poor stupid heads.
Worth highlighting is the electronic shutter that allows you to shoot up to 1/32000s. Thanks to the DRAM memory, the camera has an anti-distortion shutter that eliminates rolling shutter completely for stills (for video it is still somewhat present). So far these are the only cameras that don’t have any rolling shutter issues when using the electronic shutter.
This one is interesting, but sounds wrong.

Rolling shutter
Testing full res burst speed
Issue with it that Sony did not told you whole truth, and this is that stacked sensor speed is not so high to transfer data in half of fps time and even in longer time. To allow sensor to transfer all data you need to use short shutter speeds. Actually it needs around 85-90% of frame time only for readout and transfer.
