Review on Sony Alpha camera NEX-3 Kit 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6, black by Mateusz Sowa ᠌

Some write that the disadvantage of this model range is the menu. This is not entirely true. You can quickly get used to the menu. The main drawback of the entire Alpha NEX lineup is the quality of the shots. During the day I took about 200 pictures in parallel, taking pictures with a simple Panasonic video camera. So: the quality of the pictures from the camcorder was much better. Therefore, the main claim to Sony is the quality of the pictures. No matter how I tried in different modes, experimenting with shutter speed, aperture and color, the result was much worse than even with soap dishes. Namely: 1. When shooting landscapes, the background is always blurry and indistinct. 2. Color rendition is very lame, especially the background. Instead of a clearly defined gray outline, it gives off blurry smoky dirty greens. Indoors, the picture, on the contrary, gives off yellowness. in this case, the way out is to put it on the "retro" mode, where the picture is made paler in advance. A sunny morning in warm colors gives off a cold "serine". A beautiful sunset, even with the "sunset" function, is pale and does not convey the entire color palette of the sky. 3. The "sport" mode practically does not work. 4. The "panorama" mode produces underexposed blind shots. 5. Even on a bright sunny day, the picture is somehow colorful and fuzzy. 6. Shades of white are poorly captured and there is no contrast between shades of white. 7. The blue sky is whitish, and the shadows are even darker.
