They all are. Depends on what you define as "value for money". To some, the RX1 is value for money because it's full frame.

It's very very very vague to talk about "value for money". Follow these steps:

1. DO NOT HIJACK THREADS.
2. DO NOT HIJACK THREADS.
3. DO NOT HIJACK THREADS.
4. Figure out your budget
5. Go to the shops and check/test the cameras that fit your budget. Figure out which you like best.
6. Go home, read reviews.
7. Buy the one you like.

It is funny sometimes to see people who say Sorry to do xxxxx before they do it... but yet do it anyway. Try not to hijack other people's thread. You can start your own.

As for value for money, it really depends of how each individual define value. If you can state more tangible requirements I am sure folks here can help you. And yes, please start your own thread to ask the question.

Thanks.

Hi Guys,

I want to ask what is the best compact camera out there. I had the 5D M2 but felt it is rather heavy and also that I realize I do not have the time to use it much. But I still very much like good quality pictures and will be getting a compact camera next. I would also prefer it to have good video image like the 5D M2. I know many are talking about the RX100. I am seriously considering that. Any other recommendations? Mirrorless or compact bodies? How do they compare with the RX100? Any inputs will be appreciated.

Buy a used Leica M8 with a couple of older versions Leica lenses or mixed with Zeiss ZM. You can have a small interchangeable setup with native mount lenses. However, is manual focus. If you want AF, I feel the Sony Nex is probably a good choice
