Product details

Optical image stabilizer for shake-free shots. The integrated optical image stabilizer compensates for fine movements that occur when you take handheld shots. The built-in sensors measure these movements and send a signal to shift one or more optical elements. This allows you to capture sharp, shake-free images, especially in low light conditions and with longer exposure times.

Compact camera - small and flexible. The compact camera impresses with its small size, lightweight, and high flexibility regarding usage options. It is extremely portable, making it ideal for on-the-go photography. The lens, body, and possibly an integrated flash are all compactly housed in one casing. The operation is fundamentally simple and intuitive. An automatic mode takes care of the optimal settings for every situation, allowing you to fully concentrate on your subject and consistently achieve the best results.

  • Negativekein Sucher
  • NegativeSchärfeverlust ab ISO 800

... Die kleine Canon braucht recht lange fürs Einschalten, reagiert danach aber fix. Nicht nur im Urlaub praktisch: In ihrem Mini-Gehäuse steckt ein 40-fach-Zoom; damit füllen auch sehr weit entfernte Motive das Bild aus. Was fehlt, ist ein Sucher - für den war im Mini-Gehäuse kein Platz.

Mit knappen Budget heißt es wählen: jedes Motiv heranholen mit der Sony Cybershot HX350 (300 Euro) oder doch lieber richtig gute Fotos mit der Nikon D3500 (340 Euro). Wer mehr ausgeben, aber wenig mitnehmen will, greift zur Sony Cybershot RX100 VI (1140 Euro), einer Mini-Kamera mit Maxi-Qualität...

Bei den Kompaktkameras holt die Sony Cybershot RX100 VI den Testsieg - mit Top-Bildqualität und -Ausstattung in einem Minigehäuse. aber eben auch mit einem Preisschild von 1300 Euro. Nur 370 Euro kostet der ebenso kompakte Preis-Leistungs-Sieger: Die Panasonic Lumix TZ91 ist mit noch mehr Zoom die ideale Reisekamera, schwächelt aber bei der Bildqualität, wenn`s dunkler wird...
