Professional photographers often have to carry along several lenses to be prepared for precise shots in different situations. The compact DSC-RX10M3 bridge camera responds to this problem with its 24–600 mm zoom lens enabling both panoramic and wide-angle shots. In combination with a 1.0 type stacked CMOS sensor with 20.1 MP, a BIONZ X image processor and an optical image stabiliser, the camera produces sharp pictures at both wide and telephoto ranges.
