Sony’s NEX Mirrorless Cameras Are The Lightest Of Their Kind In The World

Camera : Sony

While I enjoy photography, I can’t say I’m a photographer. Lens lengths and quality go directly over my head. But Sony’s new NEX series caught my eye for a couple reasons — they’re mirrorless, and they’re the lightest interchangeable lens cameras in the world. Here’s what I can tell you: Specs across both cameras include 14.6 MP sensor, a 3-inch, 900,000 pixel LCD, and an ISO of 12,800. The NEX-3 has 720p video while the NEX-5 has 1080i. The NEX-3 will be available in black, red, and silver, while the NEX-5 is available in black and silver.
The included Sweep Panorama mode is interesting — you hold down the shoot button and sweep across a vista, and the camera can automatically piece the images together. There is also an HDR mode, which is all the rage these days. Check out the PR for all the technical details.

Both cameras are available this July. The NEX-5A and NEX-3A cameras, which are supplied with SEL16F28 lens, will cost about $650 and $550, respectively. NEX-5K and NEX-3K cameras, supplied with SEL1855 lens will cost about $700 and $600 respectively.
