i have one. its my backup cam when i dont want to carry the rx1.
its great for being pocketable, but i dont find it fun to use.
do not enjoy the telescoping zoom (would prefer fixed lens). do not enjoy the p&s style handling. do not enjoy using the front ring dial (novelty).
very competent however. really sharp jpegs. good for making videos

Have any of you printed any large images (say 14x20 or larger) from the RX100?
I just picked one up this week (not sure about lugging my dslr with me to london) and I wondered if this would be an option.

I have an almost new RX100 M2 with the separate electronic viewfinder.
However, the M3 has the integrated viewfinder. I know the zoom is a little less but for the added convenience, I am interested in moving to the M3.
1. Adorama will buy my almost new M2 with the electronic viewfinder for $425. Would you sell it on Craigslist instead of getting ripped off by Adorama?
2. Do you see any downside of switching to a M3? Not carrying the viewfinder is valuable to me. I think I can live with the lesser zoom.

Typically, resale prices at electronics stores are almost always a ripoff. But in this case, that seems very reasonable. Remember the hassle & the people you'll have to deal with if you do CL or Ebay.

I'm yet to see the RX100 M3 in any shops in the UK yet, only a few select online retailers.
Anyone have any idea why this might be? It's been fully released for sometime as far as I'm aware. Just like to get a hands on first before buying it.

overtheretoomuch, so much for your knowledge.
I sold the camera and viewfinder for >$300 more than Adorama offered via Amazon seller.
NB: Amazon's shipping estimates are crap. They suggested $3 and $4. It cost me $19.10 and $19.25. Ultimately, I don't care because I ....ed Adorama by $300. However, for those of you selling cheaper items, note this.
