Return of the Superzooms?: Sony teases new RX10 compact camera after 9 years of radio silence

[09:40 Wed,8.July 2026   by blip]    

Rumors about an FX5 continue to circulate, but it looks like Sony is releasing a completely different camera first: a new RX10 compact camera is now being officially teased. This would be a 5th generation, which perhaps no one was really expecting anymore – the RX10 IV was launched in 2017, almost 10 years ago.

Naturally, possible specifications for this camera have already been leaked and circulated. Interestingly, there is reportedly no update to the sensor or optics for the RX10 V; it is said to feature the same 20MP 1.0-type CMOS and the same ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T* 24-600mm F2.4-4 zoom lens as before; whether this is actually true remains to be seen.

According to rumors, the superzoom camera will feature a "dual Bionz ZR processor" and an additional AI chip – although we suspect there might be some confusion here, as the classic nomenclature is Bionz XR, and its latest version, first installed in the Sony A7V, is the Bionz XR2. Regardless, thanks to the new processor with AI support, improved, modern autofocus functions such as object tracking will be possible.

In the video department, new features are expected to include higher frame rates – 4K at 120fps and HD now at 240fps – as well as LUT support. (SLog3, on the other hand, was already available on the RX10 IV.)

Furthermore, the camera body has apparently been redesigned, as the outline of the teased camera does not match its predecessor. The mode dial on the left is no longer visible; it is now located to the right of the viewfinder, more like the A7 series.



It is not known where the camera will land in terms of price; the RX10 IV was launched at the time for 1,999 euros. Today, it is only available used for not much less money, which is why it wouldn&t surprise us if the price of the RX10 V started with a 2.

Sony plans to unveil the camera very soon, on July 9th at 4:00 PM (German time).
