Sony NEX-7 review
The 24.3 megapixel, 1920x1080 video shooting, APS-C sensor-incorporating Sony NEX-7 is the priciest interchangeable lens compact to date. Luckily for Sony then it's arguably the best, with a performance that should satisfy the semi pro.

Cons:
- Expensive
- Bulkier than rivals
- No in-body image stabilisation

Sony NEX-7 review
The next step in Sony's evolution of its NEX interchangeable-lens-but-no-bulky-internal-mirror camera system is technically brilliant: an amazingly detailed and clean image sensor shoehorned into a reasonably compact camera body that's incredibly well built and full of features (an excellent...

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:

Despite the occasional shortfall, the NEX-7 is a very pleasant camera to use, especially when you've customised it to your particular way of shooting.

Loved the camera, but not for me
I finally got an NEX-7; however, I turned it a few days later. The camera is overall amazing, and one can tell Sony gathered feedback from pro photographers and implemented their input into the NEX-7.
Pros:
- Amazing pictures with vivid colors
- tri-button layout for manual photography
- RAW
- modern sleek design
- best sensor in its class
Cons:
- Lack of lenses
- not the best auto-focus in its class
- no touch screen
- art filters don't work in RAW
- the video record button can be clicked by accident several times a day

Sony NEX-7 review
We were bowled over by Sony's mid-price compact system camera, the Sony NEX-5N , so we couldn't wait to get our hands on the flagship NEX-7. It's a seriously handsome camera, with bold, business-like contours constructed from magnesium alloy.

Review: Sony 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
- Sparkling 1080p video at 60 fps
Cons:
- Software menu is a bit of a dog's breakfast
- Flimsy pop-up flash
- At least 0 too expensive
