Miracles do happen! We have just got the news that Sony<\/a> is reviving is RX10 line of bridge cameras<\/a> \u2013 known for their huge built-in zoom lenses.<\/p>\n

And unlike other bridges currently left on the market, these use a sensibly-sized 1-inch sensor offering much better image quality than the 1\/2.3-inch sensors of current models can possibly achieve.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sony has just teased on social media the imminent arrival of the next version of the RX10. “The wait is over” we are told, with the news that we will get full details on July 09 at 10:00 ET \/ 15:00 BST.<\/p>\n

The RX10 IV was discontinued in early 2025 <\/a>after almost a decade in production \u2013 but even then it had been in short supply. With many major manufacturers giving up on compact cameras<\/a>, it was thought that was the end of the line. Panasonic<\/a> likewise tapped out with its FZ1000 range of 1-inch bridge cameras a couple of years earlier.<\/p>\n

So is it safe that the new RX10 will be called the RX10 V? Who knows for certain, as the teaser gives us no details. Similarly, we don’t know what specifications \u2013\u00a0if any \u2013\u00a0will change from the Sony RX10 IV<\/a>, which boasted a 20MP 1-inch sensor with a 25x optical zoom, giving an effective 24-2000mm range.<\/p>\n

The original RX10 was launched back in 2013, and the series became particularly popular with bird enthusiasts and wildlife watchers who wanted telephoto reach without the fuss or bulk of an interchangeable lens system.<\/p>\n
