![]() Your soon to be in hand m6 is gonna be your go to camera, after you break it in. Looks like its time to purchase one and retire the RX100i and ZS15 combo as my take everywhere cameras. It certainly appears that the RX100VI can produce lovely bokeh under the right circumstances. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question so clearly and with examples. Now, using rx100m6, larger sensor, using zoom when relatively close, not needing to bend or 'step on someone's new mowed lawn', I am leaving both my Oly and my RX1r home unless specific plans for their use. It's just that depending on object size, having to use long zoom can be a nuisance because of the distance. Long zoom also has the advantage that the background does not shrink as fast with distance, making its bokeh cover a larger image area (even though not larger in proportion to the actual objects it belongs to). Fast lens helps in proportion to fastness, long zoom helps in proportion to focal length. If you can manage that, you'll be talking. The main thing, I think, is to arrange for the "background" to be a multiple of the focusing distance away. The question was whether the RX100M6 would do a better job than the RX100M1. It's a bit strange to show off images at effective f=200mm in order to illustrate how to do shots with a camera that has a maximum of f=100mm. Well, arguably RX100M1 and RX100M6 are different cameras. Would the RX100VI (24-200) do as well or better than my old ZS15? I couldn't get anything near as nice (bokeh wise) with the RX100 as with the Panasonic ZS15 at full zoom.Īny tips on how to get decent bokeh out of the RX100i? The zoom isn't long enough to produce good bokeh like the ZS15, and shooting close up just doesn't deliver either. I just shot a few images of the wisteria in full bloom hanging down above my front deck. I have an RX100i (28-100) that I always have with me, and an old Panasonic ZS15 (24-360) that I keep in my car and take along on hikes. Now, using rx100m6, larger sensor, using zoom when relatively close, not needing to bend or 'step on someone's new mowed lawn', I am leaving both my Oly and my RX1r home unless specific plans for their use. Previously, shooting flowers, to save my knees and back, avoiding bending down (which the RX1r requires) I used my smaller sensor Oly Stylus 1, and got some nice shallow focus, because I stood up, and used lots of zoom. ![]() I got and used my RX1r as my Shallow Focus Machine. I missed shallow focus using my rx100m1,3 (my m1 above examples are ONLY if very close to the subject). ![]() Shallow Focus is one of the things I like best about my rx100m6. I was at least 6 feet away, one of the best uses of the rx100m6's extra reach, you get some very nice shallow focus using zoom for nearby objects, and the quality 'bokeh' is very nice as well. 2nd shot, I wanted more of the body in focus. Aperture was not full wide as you would expect. I was very close, 6" above them, they were still drying their wings, so it can be done in specific situations.
