Sony RX100 VII Shooting Grip Kit, Optical Zoom, Black

Overall the camera is great and I am glad I made the purchase.I debated buying this camera for a few weeks before making the purchase. In the end, I opted for the version with the grip kit and extra battery because Amazon offered a monthly payment option for the $100 extra model.In my case, I was looking for a great travel camera that could take amazing pictures without my needing to lug around multiple lens or memorize a voluminous user manual. I’m not sure I’ll get much use out of the group kit but I appreciate the capabilities it provides, namely one button operation of the camera. I opted for this model over the discounted, older A7 mirrorless with similar optical range because I wanted the convenience of not carrying around lens and the updated optics.I like the camera’s wide range, though more zoom would be handy. There some a lot of menus and features that help make the most use of the camera. There are some more capabilities enabled when operating the camera from a computer using the Sony software, including a higher pixel count for some functions when shooting presumably indoor photos. In my hands, the camera is a little small to hold and operate but that might also be my mind comparing the cost of the camera to its physical dimensions :-) . At any rate, I purchased a base to provide more grip surface area.

The camera is highly reviewed. But the zoom on the camera wasn’t impressive. I did a comparison against my iPhone and they were the same. I honestly thought it would be better than my iPhone.

El tamaño de la cámara es muy cómodo para transportarla. Tiene una muy buena calidad de imagen. No incluye la memoria.Se siente sólida, sin embargo, su cuerpo es liso y sin agarre; eso me hizo sentirla insegura para traerla suelta en la mano por lo que, en cuanto la desempaqué, le puse una correa para el cuello que tenía guardada (o sea, solamente trae una pequeña correa para la mano y los aditamentos para poner la correa de cuello).Para conectar a la computadora hay que hacer algunos ajustes; no es nada más de conectar.No es barata, pero a mi gusto valió la pena la inversión.El manual que está en internet (porque no trae uno ni en papel ni en electrónico) no es muy bueno que digamos, de modo que busqué videos en youtube y me resolvieron algunas dudas.

Muy versátil, enfoque rápido, gran calidad de imagen, para transmitir video es una super herramienta y lo mejor, cabe en un bolsillo.

I am really disappointed about the items I received. according the picture and information I received, there would two lithium ion batteries, but I just received one battery.
