A bigger model with better video capabilities and built-in EVF is planned to be announced after the NEX5-NEX3 models.

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:
