Sony Alpha Nex-5 Digital Compact Camera Review

Gets a 5 Star Rating

The Sony NEX-5 is Sony’s first mirrorless interchangeable-lens system camera, along with the less well-specced NEX-3 model that was launched alongside it. Featuring a 14.2 megapixel Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor, 25-point contrast-detect autofocus system, 49-segment exposure meter and 3-inch tilting LCD panel with 921,000-dot resolution, the NEX-5 certainly seems to have what it takes to compete with the already well-established Micro Four Thirds cameras from Panasonic and Olympus, and the newer Samsung NX series. The magnesium bodied NEX-5 can also capture fast-moving action at 7fps, shoot Full HD (1920 x1080i) video as high-quality AVCHD files and is supplied with a compact clip-on flash that attaches via an accessory terminal. Lenses can be fitted via the new E mount system, but the NEX cameras can also use regular Sony Alpha lenses via the optional LA-EA1 adapter.

As promised the searching has been done for you, below you will find the current best deals online for the new Sony Camera, there are also bonus incentives being run by some of the merchants.

There are so many interesting and innovative features in the Sony NEX-5 and NEX-3, that it’s difficult to know where to start. Easily the biggest news is that the Sony NEX series is the first interchangeable lens digital camera system designed to tackle continuous autofocus and exposure adjustments whilst recording video, where all the components, bodies and lenses, support this feature. (Panasonic’s GH1 was the first to take on this challenge, but only Panasonic’s HD lenses support these advanced features, not every Micro Four Thirds lens.) Video is actually the obvious major area, aside from size, where the two new cameras differ: The NEX-5 supports 1080i AVCHD video recording, while the NEX-3 is limited to 720p video capture.
A 14-megapixel Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor is responsible for the high quality we found in the images from both cameras. A new Bionz processor is what drives these two amazing cameras.

Several unique features were brought over from the recent Alphas and Cyber-shot digital cameras, including Sweep Panorama, Auto High-Dynamic Range shooting, Handheld Twilight, and Anti-motion-blur modes, each of which strategically combine and align several images into one seamless one. It’s pretty impressive stuff. As if that weren’t enough, Sony’s also announcing an upcoming upgrade (even before the cameras ship!) that will enable a special 3D Sweep Panorama mode that will work with several as-yet unannounced Bravia TV sets coming in July 2010.
Both the Sony NEX-5 and NEX-3 sport a wide, 3-inch LCD with 921,000-dot resolution. The surprise is that the super-slim LCD tilts up 80 degrees and down 45 degrees for easy viewing. With TruBlack technology borrowed from Sony’s picture frames, shooting in or out of doors is a pretty grand experience.
