(SR5) Pink NEX-C3 and size comparison

That’s probably the rumor of the year!!! The Sony NEX-C3 will be produced not only in boring Silver and boring black but also in…drumming….excitement…PINK!!!! I guess the main audience for that color will be ladies or young girls. I am bit surprised to see that there is no white or red option. As long as I know only two camera makers made a pink camera. Pentax and Panasonic. And I heard from my sources that the pink cameras are quite popular in Japan. Those are the cameras in pink:
Pink Pentax Kr on eBay (Click here).
Pink Panasonic GF2 on eBay (Click here).
And here is the image of the NEX-C3 in pink. Awesome or not?

“The sensor! It is so tiny!”

sony will always cripple their cameras because they want to sell their high end cinema cameras

Avchd on nex-5 seems to be the standard. Same for nex-3 720p mpeg4

Sony is loosing most of their sales on this lens, because only a minuscle minority of the potential buyers of this lens can stand the silver color, and only few among those who don’t are willing to bend over and give in, in particular not for a lens this price.
According to our forum polls, more than 82% of the potential buyers want this lens in black, more than 11% want it in white, and less than 1.5% in silver.
Among many other things, we have been talking to them about this issue since 2008, but they still don’t seem to understand a bit. But unless they change their attitude towards their customers and start listening to the valueable input of experienced photographers, they are doomed to fail in the serious market, unfortunately.

Gunnar

2 years ago |Ah the intelligence of our great security guards and police. They think a terrorist would blatantly attract attention by using a dSLR will bloody great lens on it…
I’ve never quite figured out the thought processes behind stopping dSLR users while compact and phone users snap away without being questioned and basically “undetected”…
