RX1R III overview

The Sony RX1R III is a 61 MP full-frame compact camera with a built-in lens, announced by Sony in July 2025.

Going by its spec sheet, it suits travel and everyday carry, video, low light, and landscape and detail. It is a weaker pick for all-day shooting on one battery, paid jobs that need a backup card and fast action.

New, it sells for A$6,904.40 to A$7,999 at the 4 stores we track in Australia that have it in stock; used and refurbished copies start at A$7,999.95. Over the last 90 days it has usually cost A$6,699 to A$6,904 new.

Worth comparing it with the Leica Q3, Fujifilm GFX100RF and Fujifilm X100VI.

Bigger pixels gather more light each, so they tend to show less noise at high ISO, but sensor design matters as much. For real noise at ISO 6400, these sites measure it:
