Awesome!!
Brought this camera on a trip in Asia and I LOVED IT!! Paranomic shots are awesome! Crystal clear pictures and videos. Easy to use and quick processing and face and smile detection was really quick. Zoom was awesome but could do a tad bit better too. Overall, it made my trip a lot more memorable.

Sony Alpha NEX-7
With a lot to like and just a little to dislike, the Sony Alpha NEX-7 comes up a winner, albeit an expensive one.
Pros:
- The Sony Alpha NEX-7 delivers excellent raw photo and solid video quality in a package that's beautifully and functionally designed
- yet relatively compact.
Cons:
- As with many competing products
- the camera's JPEG algorithms need some optimization
- some aspects of operation feel a little laggy
- and it's missing some useful features

Great camera!
I still fun of Nikon, but have mentioned that last year I more and more often change my Nikon D700/D3/D3X/D3S to Sony N5/C3. Main reason - compact size and weight of NEX system and very good quality of pictures. And now I have bought N7 and decided that will not buy D4 or D800.

Sony Alpha NEX-7 Review
Without doubt, the 24.3-megapixel NEX-7 is one of the most lusted after cameras in years. It sold for $1,000 over list on eBay when it initially came out, but now has settled down to more realistic levels. That said, forget any thought of a discount.
Pros:
- Outstanding stills
- Excellent noise-handling characteristics
- Attractive
- compact design
- Sharp
- bright 3-inch LCD display
- Ample lens options
Cons:
- Expensive, GUI has a definite learning curve, No built-in IS
- requires lens with OIS

Sony Alpha NEX-7
The 24-megapixel APS-C sensor inside Sony's NEX-7 produced the best stills and videos of the compact system cameras we tested this summer (2012), with details that held up even when we zoomed all the way in.
Pros:
- One of the most customizable models on the market.
Cons:
- Software menu is a bit of a dog's breakfast
- Flimsy pop-up flash.
