DxOmark tests the RX100 (beats all Nikon 1 cameras!)

DxOmark (Click here) posted the full Sony RX100 sensor analysis. And the results are impressive! It easily beats the [shoplink 13794 ebay]Nikon 1[/shoplink] sensor which has the same size but by no means the same quality. And not only that, it also beats all Micro Four Thirds sensor even if they are consideable larger (Check here for example). Again, an amazing result!
