To show off the features of the Sony RX100 IV camera, Sony Thailand has produced an amusing three minute video imagining your camera as if it were a human in order to make their points on the RX100 IV’s advantages over a big, bulky, scary DSLR.
With features like a flip screen, the RX100 IV certainly offers its advantages to the social media selfie addicts.
Especially when you add in the WiFi capabilities.
But even the big bad “DSLR” looked a little impressed by the end.
I don’t think it’s quite converted me, but thanks for giving me a chuckle, Sony!

No matter how small or big your camera is, if you’re a gullible shitty photographer, well, in the end of the day you’re a gullible shitty photographer.
