A newly leaked image provides our first look at the upcoming Sony RX10 V, placing it side-by-side with its predecessor, the nine-year-old Sony RX10 IV.
The visual comparison highlights a significant modern redesign. The new model completely drops the top LCD screen in favor of the updated grip and control layout found on modern Alpha cameras like the A9 III and A1 II. Additionally, the lens exterior has been tweaked to include a dedicated AF/MF switch and a new custom button.
