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.

I remember when the NEX series first came out and everyone was commenting on what an ugly camera it was and now it's a very popular series. I liked the looks of it then and now as well. The grip is a huge advantage and makes the camera very easy to hold.
Pros:
  • Great IQ, low noise at high ISOs, better build quality
  • Beautiful EVF
  • Thumb wheels for manual shooting
  • Sony hot shoe for Sony flashes, tilting screen, button lay out for easy shooting, faster auto focus and those nice Sony warm colors
Cons:
  • low battery life
  • no touch screen
  • no off camera flash mode and complicated menu
  • Also I wish it had a built in ND grad.

Sony NEX-7

The Sony NEX-7's rectangular, sharp-edged body, chunky rubberised hand-grip and large APS-C metal lens mount combine to create a futuristic camera that's very different in style to the likes of the Olympus PEN and Panasonic GX-series.

When the NEX-7 was first announced, it looked as though Sony had gathered together a set of enthusiasts' wish lists and built a camera to exceed them all. From the compact 'rangefinder style' body with its built-in electronic viewfinder, through the high resolution sensor offering 24MP stills and...
