Upgrade my Sony RX100 v1?

[agnes]

Well, I've seen the v3 specs and I'm rather impressed. However, the zoom being even less has kind of scared me off.

The view finder and wifi are the 2 greatest things that make me consider upgrading.

I love shooting in low light as well, I'm no camera buff at all either so the cameras easy to use functions certainly stick out.

Also, I love the size of the camera for what it can deliver.

What do you think? Is it worth selling for a couple hundred quick and pulling another £400+ out of my back pocket for the upgrade? Or am I better off just sticking to my current cam? Or even looking at an alternative. I often miss having a decent zoom, but it's not entirely essential. Also, it's my main cam. I don't have anything else to shoot with. Only this.

Thanks

The reason I went for a RX100 was because it was compact, but then I found Micro 4/3 and fell in love. Slightly larger than the RX100 but still very compact and extremely good quality pictures, plus the interchangeable lenses are excellent.

After M43 I wouldn't go back to using the RX100 or any of the upgraded versions. There's a M43 thread here, check that out.

Yea, I'm no camera buff at all, so can you give a specific camera name?

Thanks

Olympus e-pl5 is an entry level camera for M43

That's reviewed much lower than the Sony rx100 though? I need to do some researching into this M43 stuff.
