Sony announced the new RX100 III Video Creator Kit, a bundle designed for run-and-gun vlogging and video content creation. The Kit (on Amazon for $698) features the RX100 III, with a 180º tiltable LCD screen, 1” Exmor R sensor, BIONZ X processor and 24-70mm F1.8-2.8 ZEISS Lens.
The bundle also includes an innovative remote grip that doubles as a mini tripod, a 64GB SD Memory Card and an extra NP-BX1 battery. Above all, the RX100 III’s video creator kit has everything a creative needs to take your content on the move.
I used the remote grip with the RXO II recently in Lisbon. It works great.
Empowering creators is critically important to Sony
said Neal Manowitz, deputy president for Imaging Products and Solutions Americas at Sony Electronics.
We want to make it as easy as possible for them to realize their vision, to capture content in new and different ways.
Manowitz added. The Video Creator Kit is an excellent all-in-one solution at a budget price. The RX100 III is a later model that still delivers excellent image quality in full HD with a fast, sharp lens. The current model, the VI I wrote about in this post.
RX100 III Video Creator Kit Full HD Video Recording
The DSC-RX100 III records HD movies in the XAVCS format and saves files as MP4, allowing for extensive record times. With 50Mbps Full HD (1920×1080) up to 60p high-quality video recording, XAVC * enables beautiful video recording with minimal compression noise even in scenes with a lot of movement. The RX100 III also records in AVCHD and easily shareable MP4 HD video.
The VCT-SGR1 Shooting Grip allows control of capture and zoom functions directly from the grip and integrates with the RX100 III for ease of use and dynamic filming styles. The ergonomic design is comfortable for both left- and right-handed use, and the pop-out legs convert it into a mini-tripod.
