Is the RX10 II worth the larger size and slightly higher cost over the RX100 IV? What does the RX10 II have (or can do) that the RX100 IV does not? Is there a difference in picture and video quality? Any other similar (small) cameras I should look at?
 
Buy the RX100 IV if you want compact.
Buy the RX10 II if you want 8.33x zoom.
Both can shoot 4K.

Otherwise, buy the A6000, or wait for A7000.
 
When will the A7000 be released? Do you also have to buy your own lens for the A6000/A7000? If so, which is the "overall" best for all kinds of shots? I don't really want to change out lenses for different shots.

I assume the A6000/A7000 offer better picture and video quality over the RX100 IV and RX10 II?

How's the new Sony RX1R II? How would it compare to the A6000/A7000?

I'll let someone else answer that question, but holy sh!t :eek:.

That camera is so drool-worthy.

Some of the best camera technology out there in the smallest form-factor.

Just imagine pulling that thing out when it comes time for family christmas photos. Everyone thinking the photos will look something like what comes out of a smartphone -- the average compact-camera look.
Little do they know..

Did you happen to see the price tag on that thing? Nothing compares to the RX1R II in the compact class, hence the price tag.

As for your desired parameters in a camera, you are in the classic pickle. The RX10 and RX100 are great cameras, are confined to the built in lens and 1" sensor. The A6000 gives you a APS-C sized sensor and amazing speed, but you will have to buy lenses, and the kit lens, is a kit lens...

In the end, it's what fits you best and what you shoot the most. If you don't need range, the RX100 is a fine choice.
