The past few years have seen mirrorless cameras emerge as challengers to both DSLRs and prosumers, serving up high-quality images while giving users the option to swap lenses in a form factor that is much smaller than the conventional DSLR.

Bought this camera for taking on holidays in place of my DSLR.
Very happy with this camera. It takes excellent photos & Videos. Because of its size it is small enough to fit in a jacket pocket or in my case the wife's handbag so much easier to carry about than a bulky DSLR which I usually took on holiday with me.

My first non-point and shoot camera! I bought for a active vacation in Stockholm and Iceland. Being able to walk about the entire day with this on my waist was a breeze. It even made it through hiking and on a glacier!

- Full auto
- 1080 hd video with a touch of a button
Cons:
- None

Sony NEX-5R camera
Sony's NEX-5R is a compact-sized camera with a DSLR-sized interchangeable lens – but can it deliver top-of-the-range photos from a small package? We put it through its paces to find out.

Great picture quality in a small package
I use this on trips or family outings. I love the small size and the picture quality is very goo especially if you use good glass.

Sony Alpha NEX-5R Review
If you're wondering why compact system cameras like Sony's Alpha NEX-5R are gaining in popularity, it's because they are ideal "next step" models. They offer the flexibility of interchangeable lenses without the overwhelming feeling one gets when handling an SLR.
Pros:
- Produces great images
- even in low light
- Good (non-menu) controls
- Tilting touchscreen
Cons:
- Slow autofocus
- Confusing menus
- Silly "app store" concept
