Great cameras. I also have the RX10M4. Great camera with a load of features along with the 28-600mm lens. Could not find a lens with these specs that the camera has for such a price as the RX10M4.
Have you taken a look at the Sony RX10M4 or a Panasonic P1000 bridge camera? After you sell all your camera equipment it would cost you less than what you need to pay for a new bridge camera.
What type of camera lenses do you now, are they Canon, Nikon, Sony, Panasonic or Keica?
If you have any lenses what are the sizes 50mm, 28-75, 75-200 or 200-400mm lenses?
What size lenses are you looking for on a bridge camera? The bridge cameras from Sony or Panasonic have a fixed lens from 28-600mm and range in price $1000-$1600 US prices. These prices are for new bridge camera, with used cameras are under $1000 for Sony and cheaper for a Panasonic.
Hope this helps you to find a bridge camera in you price range.
Now for a camera base what are you looking for, are you looking for a base to match the lenses you have or are you going to purchase lenses later?
You can find a base for under $800 in you price range but when you add the accessories like a microphone, external flash and a camera case you are going to be spending as much or more than a bridge camera. Now all new camera base are mirrorless and will be in your price range without lenses. Have you thought of a APC-S Camera and lenses? These will be cheaper than a bridge or a mirrorless camera with the same Megapixels as a Mirrorless. Now you will have to decide on a,fixed lens camera that is half mirrorless, a mirrorless base or a APC-S camera.
Good luck
I went to a computer store and picked up a,card reader that you can mount in the computer. Reads all the cards including the CE, Micro SD and SD cards. Also it can also read USB drives. The reader fits either in a floppy drive or CD port on the front of the computer case. It cost me less than a USB card reader.
Check out the card readers that B&H carries. You might find one cheaper with more slots than what Amazon.com sells.
I have a Sony RX10M4 digital camera with 2 external flashes, feelworld 6" lutz monitor, and a Sony ECM-XYST1M Microphone with extra batteries plus other accessories for the camera.
Nice photo of the NPR Brookshire 2-8-4 steam locomotive. Had a model of this engine in Lionel 0 guage years ago plus the Madison Coaches.
Excellent steam train photos!
Will try it and see what happens. Don't have a Video Camera anymore or I would be using it.
This camera like many other cameras has a 29 minute thermal protection that shuts the camera off to prevent the sensor from burning out regardless if you are using AC/DC power. But the newer Mirrorless Cameras will allow you to shot videos for as long as the battery has voltage left in it or SD Card has room for the video.
Was asked to film a wedding in a couple of months and I would like to know if any of the Sony RM10 IV users experienced a overheating issue while filming?
I plan to shot the wedding in 4K HD along with the reception. Purchased an electric battery adapter so it would not drain the battery along with a feelworld lut 6" monitor.
The microphone I will be using is a Sony ECM-XYST1M. For the video card will be a Lexar 1667X 64gb with a read speed of 250 mbs.
Camera will be mounted on a Sirui SH-25T tripod with a BCH20 Video Head factory mounted on the tripod.
I know the running time is 30 minutes before the camera turns off but I should have around 4 hours of filming available on this card.
Please let me know if you have experienced any overheating issues with this camera.
Thank you
When you shot videos with the RX10M4 does this camera overheat if you are shooting for a long period of time?
