Excellent zoom range and optical resolution
I'm a professional documentary photographer. This SONY camera is the best compact camera I've ever used. The optics are superb and the RAW files have remarkable range of tonality. I'l taken award-winning photos with this camera. The focus is rapid and 10:1 zoom range permits well-defined framing of distant people and objects. Two items worth addressing. I periodically by accident activate the not-recessed enough video button. This button could be better protected or recessed. The second is the battery. More work should be done to develop higher power batteries in this size configuration. I never go out to a long shoot without at least two to three fully charged batteries. This design has been so successful that my last desire is for the same configuration in a full-frame camera.

RX100 VI Overheats :-(
Nowhere in the specifications, features, or reviews hint to the fact that this camera overheats and shuts down when doing video in excess of 15 to 20 minutes.

    Built like a tank
    I wanted a small, do everything camera so I didn't have to lug around my SLR. I was disappointed in myself when I accidentally ran over the camera with my car. I was absolutely delighted when it still worked, albeit with a broken screen (which also still worked). I replaced the screen bought online, and it works perfectly. Tough little camera.

    Fantastic small high quality camera
    I needed a small and lighter size camera that would still have the high quality I have come to expect from larger more expensive cameras. Amazed at the sharpness and quality of this camera plus the broad zoom range in something this small is incredible. It fits in my pocket and is easy to carry and use. Wish it had better low light noice reduction but it is no worse than my larger cameras that are near professional level so it's a good trade in small size and have all the features that this camera has.

    Great Color Rendition and Detail
    Many of the reviews have emphasized the zoom lens and the great video quality. As a professional still photographer, I rarely use video. The 24mm to 200mm has proven to be quite useful when shooting urban landscapes, but what I am really blown away by is the sharpness of the photographs (there seems little to no difference between the 24 megapixel ASP-C sensor and this 20.1 1" sensor) and the color rendition. I shoot RAW, and I have noticed I make very view adjustments to color in Lightroom. The noise is also very light even at ISO 1000, which I shoot below as much as possible. The blues, yellows, and reds are particularly good. Yes, the camera is expensive, but it so portable. Because of the image quality, I feel less guilty leaving my full frame at home when I am out and about and want a serious camera with me at all times.

    Great Features, Fast and Efficient Focus Captue
    Bought about 2 months ago, and although this Compact Version Full Pixel does all it should with regards to the Latest and Greatest, it lacks the Specs offered, which was a disappointment (17mp vs quoted 21mp). But all in all, the performance is par to none I have owned thus far, for a Compact 4K Capture/Digital Still Camera of this calbre. Menu is a bit clunky, and has a moderate learning curve, until you Speak Sony operative. This, in which I pray they update with firmware soon, as the Sony Memories Android/iOS Sony app is DOA, with never a connect over wifi or NFC, just dismal, and sad. Is it me...? As my mobile devices are a iPX and GS9+, so it is a head scratcher. But I am surprised at the focus speed and capture is as agile and precise as one could dream of, but the optical zoom is a downer, and just sad. I have an old Samsung Galaxy Cam 2 with 21x optical, and this is half that, and that ain't right...BUT, I'm keeping it cause it's a sweet little honey, and I love it for what it is...Super Quality, Tight Ops, with all it's flaws...plus I kept it a little too long...:P Enjoy~! it's a winner, actually, give it a try..!!

    Greatest of all Rx100 Models
    I've owned the M1, 2, 3, 4 and now the M6. All have been great, but I really appreciate the zoom range of the 6. I have Sony's A7R III and the Rx1 II, but the Rx100 is the camera I have with me all the time. I love this camera!!

    Powerful options
    Barely a week in use . . . I like it. Powerful pocket camera . . . and complex to pack all of that into a small form factor. Does most of what my full frame DSLR does. Have used lesser pocket cameras before. Looking forward to learning and using all the advanced features. Really needs to either ship with a paper manual or allow to purchase one. In electronic version you need to know what you are looking for . . . can't easily just flip pages. I would recommend for a serious photographer . . . if just a snapshot shooter you can be as effective without all the advanced features.

    Love the zoom
    I own a RX100 II. That was an upgrade from DSC-HX7V which had 10X zoom. Immediately, I felt the loss, although I loved the 1” sensor. With the M6, I feel empowered again. I do not have much opportunity for astrophotography, given there is light pollution everywhere near me. However, I'm going to get the chance to try that out soon. I'll find out then if the lack of f/1.8 loss is a problem. Right now, the M6 autofocus alone is a significant enhancement over the M2, among the other features. The only disappointment is both M2 and M6 are not supported by PlayMemories Camera App. I still cannot have time lapse installed.
