I am finding that the Sony RX10 is also filling the gap left by (the bad move) I made trading in my D300 & 18-200 DX lens when I got my D800.

The above flower pix is amazing quality from the Sony and part of the reason is the Zeiss lens is pin sharp even at f2.8 but also macro photography as we know is very hard to get enough depth of field. The depth is amazing in this pix but the 8.8mm lens is a great help and f5.6 is giving all you need. With my Nikon D800 and 105mm Macro lens I would have needed to use f22 or f16 for the same shot!

I think Sony have been able to do a lot of R&D development work with small CMOS chips in their very high quality pro and high end pro/am range of camcorders. They are now using this in the new range of compact and DSLR still cameras.
