The premium compact camera market has exploded over the past couple of years, with one of the most popular models being the original Ricoh GR and its successor the GR II. When we tested the II version a couple of years ago, we found it surprisingly fun to use for street photography and very rewarding as far as image quality and user experience are concerned.

Fujifilm XF10 vs X100F – The 10 Main Differences
Fujifilm has produced a good number of fixed lens compact cameras over the years. The most popular is the X100 series which was the only one to house an APS-C sensor until the X70 was released in 2016. Then, two years on, a third APS-C compact camera hit the market, the XF10. It has a simpler appearance than the X70 and retains the small form factor of its “unofficial” predecessor.
In most cases, the difference in lens, size and price should be sufficient to help you decide which one to go for. But if you are curious to know a little more, we invite you to read through the ten most interesting differences between the XF10 and the fourth generation X100F.
Fujifilm XF10 vs X70 – The 10 Main Differences
Whilst attending a Fujifilm event a few months ago, I recall having a long conversation with one of the managers about the Fujifilm X70 who asserted at the time that a direct successor wasn’t in the cards for the time being. I admit I was somewhat disappointed as I really enjoyed the camera’s 28mm equivalent field of view while testing it a couple of years ago.
Fujifilm X-A5 vs X-T20 – The 10 Main Differences
At the top of the entry level range of Fujifilm cameras is the X-A5. It is characterised by its flat-topped design and Bayer sensor and is the camera beginners are most likely to go for thanks to its reasonable price tag.
Sitting one step above is the X-T20, a mid-range model with a few more bells and whistles than the X-A5 but an equally compact body and attractive design. However, unlike the X-A5, it comes with a built-in viewfinder and an X-Trans III sensor.
Sony RX100 V vs RX100 VI – The 10 Main Differences
Since the release of the first RX100, Sony has made some impressive leaps forward in terms of what a compact camera can do – particularly when you look at speed, autofocus and video. From the built-in pop-up EVF of the RX100 III to the introduction of phase detection AF on the RX100 V, these little cameras continue to raise the bar higher and higher in this segment.
