Sony NEX-5R review
If you're considering spending £500 on a camera, you can expect a massive jump in quality over smartphones and compact cameras. However, that doesn't necessarily mean you want a bulky, complex SLR. Compact system cameras (CSCs) provide the best of both worlds.

Sony NEX-5R
The Sony NEX-5R is outwardly very similar to the older NEX-5N model, so some of the comments that we made about that camera apply equally to the NEX-5R.

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.

This camera is more of a beefed up point & shoot camera than a compact DSLR
WATCH OUT! The NEX-5R seems like a good choice at first, but if you're looking for a good camera for your money's worth, you'll regret buying this. The lens choices on this camera are unreasonably expensive and have limited capabilities.

Sony 5R can potentially be a great camera but Sony decided to screw a few things. Pro: -great image quality. - small pocket-able camera. - interface is not as bad as some people have said but can certainly be improved.

Sony's NEX-5R camera does so much right
It's a great camera choice for high-quality stills and a streamlined shooting design under $800, but the Sony Alpha NEX-5R falls short when it comes to sharing your shots online.
Pros:
- Sony Alpha NEX-5R delivers excellent photo quality
- even in dimmer light
- and provides more physical controls than some of its predecessors for a more streamlined shooting design
Cons:
- The wireless connectivity and apps "ecosystem" implementations are far less than this camera deserves
