Sony RX10 V stacks tech and price in one built-in telephoto package

Sony revives the RX10 as the RX10 V, packing a stacked 20.1MP 1-inch sensor that delivers up to 30fps blackout-free bursts and 4K/60p (4K/120p cropped) video, plus a Sony Alpha–style body, a high-capacity NP-FZ100 battery, and top-tier real-time autofocus. It retains the 24–600mm f/2.4–4 Zeiss zoom from earlier models and adds live 4K streaming over USB-C, but it drops features like a built-in ND filter and a pop-up flash. At $2,299.99 at launch, it’s aimed at deep-pocketed travelers and action shooters who want an all-in-one, portable camera, though the 1-inch sensor means some resolution limits compared with full-frame rivals.

Bloodborne on PS5 Could Be a Native 4K, 100+ FPS Ride—If Sony Cared

Digital Foundry demonstrated that Bloodborne can run on PlayStation 5 at native 4K with a locked 30 FPS, and, with a mod and the PS5’s extra RAM, can reach over 60 FPS at 1440p (up to ~70 FPS) and about 100 FPS at 1080p, plus 120Hz VRR at 1440p. This effectively amounts to a near-remaster achieved via mods on an exploitable unit, highlighting how little developer effort would be required and underscoring Sony’s lack of an official backward-compatibility upgrade—likely leaving a true remaster to future consoles like the PS6.

Portable 4K laser cinema: Hisense M2 Pro reimagines home viewing

Mashable’s hands-on with the Hisense M2 Pro 4K triple-laser portable projector finds it packs bright, daylight-friendly 1,300 ANSI lumens, up to 200-inch images, 240Hz gaming with 12ms input lag, and decent onboard speakers, all in a ~9-pound chassis with a carrying case. It runs Vidaa OS but accepts external streaming devices, and it requires an AC power brick (no built-in battery). Setup includes auto-focus/keystone adjustments; best for setups that can project at least 65 inches. Priced around $1,299 (often on sale near $1,099). Verdict: a strong alternative to a TV for movie nights and gaming, with the tradeoffs of size and power needs.
