RX100 dynamic range

[Franglais]

I did this shot this morning, the only view I could find of the front of this new shopping center. Lighting was a complete nightmare, extreme contrast but then I wanted to try out the RX100 and see what it was like.

My initial tests make me think that the tiny Sony RX100 is pretty close in terms of picture quality to my Nikon D300 + 18-200. Just what I was hoping.

I did this image on RAW then brought back the highlights and brought up the shadows in Lightroom. I just wouldn't be able to do that with my Canon S95 with its tiny sensor.

BTW you can't see it at this size but there is full detail in the white tiles and railings of the buildings in the background. Remember this is a 20Mpix camera..
