if ($sel != '1')
{?>NEX5 / BHphoto camera. They also find the image quality to be very good with the only major issue beeing the complicated NEX menu system

.

Also CNET Asia tested the NEX-5. But their review will be online in few days.

In the meanwhile PCworld posted a video preview of the camera: http://www.pcworld.com/article/195998/sonys_alpha_nex5_digital_camera_dslr_capability_without_dslr_complexity.html#

Imaging Resource has been incredible fast! They already reviewed the Sony NEX5 camera and compared it with $loc = $_SESSION['geoip'];

if ($loc == 'GB' OR $loc == 'UK')
{ $sel = "1"; ?>MicroFourThirds if ($loc == 'ES')
{ $sel = "1"; ?>MicroFourThirds if ($loc == 'IT')
{ $sel = "1"; ?>MicroFourThirds if ($loc == 'AT')

{ $sel = "1"; ?>MicroFourThirds if ($loc == 'US')
{ $sel = "1"; ?>MicroFourThirds if ($sel != '1')
{?>MicroFourThirds, and classic DSLR.

Verdict? The $loc = $_SESSION['geoip'];

if ($loc == 'AT')
{ $sel = "1"; ?>Amazon Österreich if ($loc == 'DE')
{ $sel = "1"; ?>Amazon Deutschland if ($sel != '1')
{?>Sony NEX has a very good image quality (better than the Olympus E-P1 and the Panasonic G1) and is on par with beasts like the Canon 550D and the Nikon D5000.

We have to be very careful when we talk about leaks coming form China. But that one seems to be more reliable than others. The chinese store detail.zol.com.cn posted the Sony NEX3 and Sony NEX5 cameras. The only real news is that NEX cameras will use the “FW50 Special lithium battery”

NEX5:
Effective pixels:14,000,000
Sensitivity: ISO200-12800
AF Sensor: 11
Display scale: 3 inch
Video shoot: 1080p format
Body type: Single Lens electronic viewfinder
Manual operation: Full manual support
Sensor type: APS-C CMOS
Battery Type: FW50 Special lithium battery
Memory card type: SDHC Cards / MS Memory Stick
Flash Type: External
Focusing aids: Parameter correcting focus assist lamp
Support hotshoe: Yes
Data Interface: USB2.0
Pixel and class: 920,000-pixel LCD screen
Lens Description: Sony E series lens mount

NEX3:
Is almost the same camera but with following difference:
Video shoot: 720p format

Someone can confirm us if the specs are correct?
Thanks!

]]> http://www.sonyalpharumors.com/sr3-chinese-store-leaks-the-nex3-and-nex5-camera-specs/feed/ 26 (SR3) The first Sony NEX mirrorless cameras are very similar to the Panasonic GF1 http://www.sonyalpharumors.com/sr3-the-first-sony-nex-mirrorless-cameras-are-very-similar-to-the-panasonic-gf1/ http://www.sonyalpharumors.com/sr3-the-first-sony-nex-mirrorless-cameras-are-very-similar-to-the-panasonic-gf1/#comments Mon, 15 Feb 2010 22:40:41 +0000 admin http://sonyalpharumors.com/?p=1333 According to the same sources that posted the NEX5 and NEX3 specs (on a chinese forum) both cameras will be very compact. He says the shape is very similar to the Panasonic GF1 and it doesn’t have built-in electronic viewfinder. A bigger model with better video capabilities and built-in EVF is planned to be announced after the NEX5-NEX3 models.

REMINDER Fot those that still don’t know the specs:
He says the name of the mirrorless cameras will be “NEX5” and “NEX3“. They have a new mount…the “E-mount“. And they will come with two lenses: 18-55/F3.5-5.6 , 16mm/2.8.

Here the specs:

14mp APS-C CMOS
-brand new Sony E mount (adapter for A mount)
-used SDHC or MS
-RAW supported
-3.0 LCD 920K color
-11 AF point
-ISO 200-12800
-Video recording (model NEX5: 1080 NEX3:720p) format Mp4 or AVCHD
-built-in flash and AF Assistance light
-new FW50 batteries
