I used to have a YS27 it is a good strobe for macro. It does have a cancel pre-flash mode so it should work for the RX100. However consider that its beam coverage is quite limited so all you will be able to do is close up work
Also it does not have any TTL so you will need to adjust the power knob each time you shoot

So your saying a foc will be needed no matter what? The price to go with a dslr full package is $$$$$ mind blowing$$$$$...... I plan to do mostly macro stills and some video, however I love taking pic. I been told go with g16 bc its a brighter lens and better at macro. Others say rx100 m2 due to the large senor.....
video not so good with canon cameras. you need a fiber cable regardless or you can make your own but it will eventually crack or be damaged sooner
