Being a shaky old-geezer at age 79, I figured my days of hand holding my camera and shooting a 600mm lens well over one hundred feet across a pond at a duck in the brush were over. Wrong! Sony has created this amazing point and shoot camera that allows me to create images like I was twenty again. All of the credit goes to them and their amazing new technology. I love my Canon EOS 6D Mark ll, full sensor, for low-light, indoor soccer. However, I don't know how you can beat Sony's less expensive, point and shoot camera's ability to capture a ducks eye as sharp as an old-knife-blade at 220 mm in the sunlight? I think today's photographers are living in a amazing technological age to have access to such gear and the freedom to use it. (If they can sell enough images to afford it or have married up!)
Got one and love it. I’m 77also. 78 in 10 days.
What the heck, embrace the new tech. Nice!
It certainly does the job! I’m sure some of the credit goes to the experienced hand and eye behind the camera, too.

Dear Cwilson341...Thank you for the compliment. You made me blush!
My wife has one. We don't share computers, phones or cameras. Damn!

Dear bsprague...I know exactly what you mean!
I will be 84 in another month and I believe my RX10M4 is great not because of the photographer but because of the Zeiss lens.
almost forgot....cheers
Shooter41, you are being disrespectful... "amazing point and shoot camera"
These Amazing Superzoom, pocket 24/7, cameras are not in the el'Chep0 "Point and Shoot" low-life classification.
Your photo is proof of how great this 1" sensor great lens group of cameras are.
I have a Panasonic TZ100 1" sensor camera and it is in the Amazing classification also.

That's my wife's other camera that she won't let me touch!
I just got mine and love the RX10M4. I am 77 and doing all I can do with a bad knee.
