The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 IV is a digital premium compact camera announced by Sony on June 10, 2015. It is one of a pair of cameras launched together by Sony that use their new stacked CMOS sensor, a development similar to Sigma's Foveon line of sensors. The other camera is the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 II, a model providing a larger lens and greater zoom, but less compact body. The stacked CMOS sensor collects full colour information for each pixel rather than using a Bayer pattern. This should provide greater resolution, depending on other factors such as lens quality and noise reduction.
Compared to its predecessors, the RX100 IV also has a faster electronic shutter and increased read-out speed for video, which will also result in a reduction in rolling shutter effect and allow high speed video to be captured.[1]
