The Sony RX100 VII is the company`s latest pocketable 1` sensor compact. It uses the same 24-200mm equivalent F2.8-4.5 lens as its predecessor but features a more powerful, easier-to-use autofocus system.
This comes in addition to the already impressive capabilities we saw in the Mark VI, including very fast continuous shooting and high-quality 4K video capture. And, for the first time in the series, the Mark VII has a mic socket for improved audio recording.
The Mark VII can shoot at up to 20 frames per second with no viewfinder blackout: specs that are a match for the company`s flagship a9 sports camera. And it`s this capability, along with the enhanced AF, that prompts Sony to talk about `the power of an a9 in your pocket.` To be clear, though, it does not share its hardware with that model.

The RX100 VII will be available in August 2019 at a recommended price of $1200. This is the same price as its predecessor was launched at, so we expect to see the Mark VI get re-positioned, to make room.
What`s new and how it compares
The RX100 VII looks like its predecessor but borrows know-how (though not hardware) from the pro-sports a9 model.
