Sony Alpha NEX-5 review at Camera Labs

Sony's Alpha NEX-5 is a remarkable camera. It takes the concept pioneered by Micro Four Thirds of packing a DSLR-sized sensor into a compact mirrorless body, but employs a bigger sensor and a smaller shell. Throw-in fast continuous shooting, a large, detailed and articulated screen, HD video with a decent stab at autofocusing while filming, a respectable kit lens and a series of innovative modes...

DCRP Review: Sony Alpha NEX-5

The NEX-5 is an extremely capable camera, held back by a user interface that drove me (and nearly all other reviewers) nuts.

Sony Alpha NEX-5 Review

The SLD camera the US has been waiting for? Introducing the Sony NEX-5 and Sony NEX-3! SLD (Single-Lens Direct view, aka "Mirrorless") cameras have been big in Japan and Europe for a while now, but have gotten off to a slow start with US consumers. We suspect this may be about to change. With the announcement of the Sony NEX-5 and Sony NEX-3 cameras, the game has changed significantly. These new...
