Premium image quality from an ultra-compact body

The RX0 II is the ideal life-sharing companion. It captures stunning images, even in dim light, with the powerful 1.0-type sensor and low-distortion ZEISS® Tessar T* lens, and it lets you share them easily with your smartphone. It also features internal 4K-movie recording, impressive image stabilisation, an improved 20cm minimum focus distance, and a 180°-tiltable LCD screen.

Rugged by design, built to perform

Reflecting the camera's robust construction and go-anywhere functionality, it sports a simple and practical ribbed design, with clean lines and no unnecessary protrusions. The extra super duralumin body is dependably rigid but light in weight.
