Features
24-600 millimeter F2.4-4 Large-Aperture Optical Zoom Lens
The first 25x optical zoom lens in an RX series camera features 24-600 millimeters extra-wide-angle to ultra-telephoto zoom range in a bright F2.4-4 lens; Super-ED glass, ED glass and aspherical lens elements to maintain excellent image resolution, contrast and quality; and nine-blade aperture unit for outstanding depiction of bokeh background.
Exmor RS CMOS Image Sensor
A large 13.2 x 8.8 millimeters (1.0-type) Exmor RS CMOS image sensor with approx. 20.1 effective megapixels achieves more captivating results, thanks to a stacked architecture that expands and speeds up signal processing, back illumination technology to increase light collection efficiency and reduce noise in shots taken at up to ISO 12800, and attached DRAM chip for faster large-volume output that in-camera 4K super slow motion recording14 requires.
4K Movie Recording
4K movies can be recorded with full pixel readout and no pixel binning, for the ultimate image resolution with less moire and jaggies. A high-speed front-end LSI that supports image processing, greatly reduces “rolling shutter” (diagonal skewing) distortion that is commonly seen in video footage of fast-moving subjects.
Fast Intelligent AF in just 0.09 seconds
Along with great zoom coverage up to 600 millimeters, the RX10 III features 0.09 seconds high-speed AF. By assessing the subject even before the shutter button is pressed halfway, the system’s subject detection algorithm accurately predicts the proper point of focus, upon which the camera focuses as soon as the button is pressed.
Super Slow Motion up-to Ultra Telephoto
It’s easy to create super slow motion movies. Turn the mode dial to HFR (High Frame Rate) mode. Choose among 960/1000 fps, 480/500 fps and 240/250 fps (NTSC/PAL17, frames-per-second rates for shooting exceptionally clear, smooth close-up action at up to 40x the ordinary frame rate for movies, according to the speed at which the subject moves. In Quality Priority mode, image quality approaches Full HD quality at 240/250 fps, and HD quality at 480/500 fps.
Continuous Shooting at up-to Approx. 14fps Without Blackout
High-speed readout of the image sensor’s approximately 20.1 effective megapixels of imaging data makes continuous shooting at a rate of up to about 14 fps possible with reduced blackout. This makes it easier to shoot great moments and expressions at their height nearly instantaneously. High-precision automatic auto-focus tracking is operational even during continuous shooting at up to 5 fps.
Optical SteadyShot
Optical image stabilization technology developed exclusively by Sony is especially valuable for handheld still and movie shooting, especially in low light or at the ultra-telephoto end of the zoom range up to 600 mm13. This system is equivalent to a 4.5-stop19-faster shutter speed, and prevents camera blur to ensure smooth, stable framing and shooting.

Anti-Distortion Shutter for Fast and Silent Shooting
The rolling shutter phenomenon distorts images of fast moving subjects. The RX10 III can suppress it when shooting at up to a shutter speed of 1/32000 seconds. Ensuring that you can capture sharp, undistorted images of sports such as tennis. Plus its electronic shutter can operate silently, allowing you to shoot concerts, wildlife and other subjects without disturbing the environment.

BIONZ X Image Processing Engine
To faithfully reproduce and fine-tune detail and texture, this image processor works with the lens and Exmor RS stacked-type image sensor to handle approx. 20.1 effective megapixels of data with great speed and precision. Diffraction reduction to maintain image clarity even at smaller aperture settings, and area-specific noise reduction according to image area characteristics also help to maintain high image quality.
XGA OLED Tru-Finder
With high magnification (0.70x), contrast and resolution, this electronic viewfinder displays great depth. The equivalent of approximately 2.35 million dots on display reproduce rich tones and colours even in dark areas, for realistic images that match the high quality of the final recording. ZEISS T* Coating significantly reduces surface reflection from the sun and other light sources.
Versatile, User-Friendly, Reliable Operation
Lens manual rings for focus, zoom and aperture provide comfortable, adaptable control, especially as you look through the viewfinder. Multi Interface (MI) Shoe makes it easy to connect flash units, microphones and other accessories. Dust- and moisture-resistant sealant and construction of operating parts allow the camera to withstand rugged conditions.
One-Touch Remote/ One-Touch Sharing
One-touch remote makes your smartphone or tablet a viewfinder / remote control. One-touch sharing transfers photos / videos to your device for SNS sharing. Just install a PlayMemories Mobile app via Wi-Fi to your NFC-enabled Android device, then touch the device to the camera to connect them. No NFC? No problem, as new QR code compatibility can also pair the devices.
S-Gamut/S-Log2
Gain flexibility to make more expressive movies in post-production. S-Log2 gamma curves feature wide dynamic range (up to 1300%) to reduce whiteout and blackout in the colour grading process.
PlayMemories Camera Apps
This application broadens your photographic horizons by letting you add more functions to the camera.
Customisable Function Settings
The custom (C) button allows you to set one of over 58 possible functions to adapt the camera’s capabilities to your shooting style. Assign a frequently used function or preferred setting to this button. Then, you can promptly call up that function or setting. Access to your selection will be available at your fingertip, for faster, more intuitive camera operation.
Dual Rec
The sensor’s heightened processing speed enables the RX10 III to capture very precise still images without pixel binning while recording a movie. The result: high-quality images of up to 17 MP resolution.
