Sony NEX-5R Review
The NEX-5R is best shot without asking questions. It gets clumsy for playback or making shooting adjustments, so it's best just to shoot and do your best to avoid playing in the menus.

Sony NEX-5R Review: A Great Camera With A Few Missing Pieces
Over the last year, Sony's NEX cameras have been our favourite of the compact, mirrorless lot. They just handle so well. And on a small camera with big features and DSLR, the way you hold, adjust, and operate it makes a huge difference.

Sony Alpha NEX-5R Digital Camera Review
It's almost like Sony doesn't want to sell NEX -7's anymore. Apart from a few key missing features-those would be the absent viewfinder and much lower megapixel count-the NEX -5R doesn't only surpass its predecessor, the camera actually competes directly with the top of the NEX lineup.
Pros:
- Wide dynamic range
- Excellent video capabilities
Cons:
- Confusing menu interface
- Installable apps have a long way to go
