Should I upgrade from the sony rx100 v?

The RX100 V is a capable pocket camera. Its 8.8-26mm lens frames like 24-69mm on full frame, and it has a 1-inch sensor. Whether it's worth upgrading depends on what it's holding you back from. Its lens is built in and can't be swapped, so if you need a longer reach or a wider or faster lens, you'd need a different system.

I don't have a comparison of newer models on the site, so I can't name a specific replacement. If you want interchangeable lenses, my first camera guide explains why a mirrorless camera with an APS-C sensor is the sensible next step for most people. If you're after a better compact, the same guide covers that route too. And if you're thinking about spending less, buying used is a good way to get a lot of camera for the money. You can read more about the RX100 V on its catalogue page.
