Sony DSC-RX10

Looks like Sony is really innovating these days and their latest is the DSC-RX10. Looks like your typical camera with a respectable 24-200mm (35mm equivalent) zoom range and 20.2 megapixels CMOS back-illuminated sensor. But what's not typical about it are some of its cooler features:

1. Wide 2.8 aperture ACROSS the whole zoom range!!!
2. 1" sensor similar to Sony's RX100.
3. Built-in wifi that allows easy transfer/sharing via iOS and Android phones.
4. NFC capability with Android phones.

But of course, with great specs come great pricing. Though not overly high, it'll set you back US$1,299. Not many might want to invest on a non-DSLR/mirror less interchangeable lens camera at this price but it sure helps to wake up its competitors who are still battling over who has the longer zoom or whose sensor has more pixels.
