Sony RX1R II

Why you can trust TechRadar We spend hours testing every product or service we review, so you can be sure you’re buying the best. Find out more about how we test.

The signal to noise ratio figure shows the proportion of random image noise there is in the camera's images. The higher the figure the better.

Sony RX1R II lab tests

JPEG signal to noise ratio analysis: Again, the Sony RX1R II's high resolution appears to have no impact on its noise levels. Only the Fuji X100T can match its JPEG signal to noise ratio across the full ISO range.

Sony RX1R II lab tests

Raw (converted to TIFF) signal to noise ratio analysis: The raw results tell a slightly different story, and here the RX1R II is closer to the rest – if anything, the Leica Q has a slight advantage in the medium ISO range, though loses out slightly past ISO 6400.
