Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like everything, the price and quality are acceptable.

Pros: Large matrix, convenient display, light, small, good video, adapters for FD without a lens are installed. Doesn't attract attention. Cons below: Bad JPEG, weak battery (more precisely, a gluttonous device), too many pixels, it's unusual to keep it after 40D. The green regime is harder to get out of than the others.

No complaints, I recommend to buy.

In general, I’m very happy with the camera, if you choose an excellent digital camera, it’s better to pay a little extra money and take this type of camera (the potential is huge), thanks to the full-size matrix, I completely abandoned the flash (with the right settings, the photo is just a feast for the eyes), it’s better to use an SD card (class 6- 10) - instantaneous recording of pictures (RAW), the grip of the camera is not very convenient (generally a problem for large hands)

Pros
  • Great photos and videos, fast camera brains, detachable flash, compact size, great display, SD card support, tips for beginners, great price compared to competitors (Olympus, Panasonic)
Cons
  • A dead battery (2-3 discharge-charge cycles give almost nothing), there is no optical viewfinder (it would make it possible to save battery power), the camera heats up, and what will happen in the summer? (charge for compactness), an inconvenient menu (you constantly have to return to the main menu for important settings), loses to full-size DSLRs in autofocus speed, Memory Stick memory card

Good quality product, I rate this purchase excellent.

Got pros: There are all the advantages of a DSLR and a soap dish. The ability to take pictures both in full automatic mode and in manual mode. Good video. Cons below: The battery takes a long time to charge, the flash is not in the case and that's it.

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

I bought a 16 GB class 10 Transcend memory card for it. Thanks to this, the camera quickly takes pictures and the photos are quickly copied to the computer. I also bought a fuji filter on the lens so that it does not get dirty. I bought a sticker with a string for the lens cap so that the cap does not get lost and hangs on the string. The camera is cool, the charge is probably enough for 400-600 photos (for a quick shot), that is, for 2-3 days of photography, this is more than my old soap dish…

Pros
  • Cool camera! I bought myself a pink color, it is so cheerful :) Photos and videos are beautiful, the lens I took 18-55mm suits me perfectly.
Cons
  • not to say that the fluff is by weight, but this does not bother me. It's just that his "scene" modes are not ideal, but I don't care, I shoot most often on P or on the intelligence of the photo.

I didn³'t expect the quality to be this good.

Got it half a year ago. Satisfied! An excellent camera, convenient in terms of compactness (even with the SEL1855 lens), the photo / video quality is excellent. I'm not a professional photographer, but the pictures are no worse than professional studio/portrait ones. Its pros: - compactness -high quality photo/video - a large number of functions - the ability to manually correct the focus when the automation does not catch correctly - rotary display Cons: When using standard (small) optics,

I have not regretted the purchase, everything is fine.

I chose it as an everyday alternative to the Canon D50, it fits in my pocket, but it makes it noticeably heavier. The main disappointment is that at ISO 1600 the Sony matrix makes noise much more than the Kenon 50 at ISO 3200. Moreover, Sony's noise is more unpleasant in appearance. Therefore, it is not necessary to talk about high-quality pictures in poor lighting, although I took the camera just for this. But in the absence of another compact alternative to DSLRs, you can also use it.

Pros
  • Small size, high ISO, convenient screen, good video (and it compresses well on the fly), separate flash (this is a plus for me, because I don’t need it at all in this device).
Cons
  • An uncomfortable handle, a very uncomfortable shutter button, a noisy matrix, an unswitchable shutter sound, a terrible-looking "pancake" with an uncomfortable lid.

Best I have ever used, great product for anyone!

Apparently, in the digital era, it is mirrorless cameras with interchangeable lenses that will become a replacement for the class of film rangefinders for amateur photographers. Good quality, fast and convenient shooting, creative possibilities and relative ease of carrying and cheapness (compared to DSLRs) make this class of cameras an optimal "middle link" between unpretentious compacts and high-end, but expensive and bulky "mirror" equipment.

Pros
  • A small and relatively inexpensive camera that combines the advantages of compact cameras (contrast autofocus - accurate and allows you to work in video mode, relatively small size, many program modes) and DSLRs (interchangeable lenses, large and very low-noise matrix with an operating ISO of up to 3200, ease of control for IPIG).
Cons
  • Weak battery, not very high quality native optics ("soaps" in the corners), non-standard connector for accessories. Sometimes the viewfinder is not enough: framing on the screen is not so convenient. The menus and controls in general look confusing and not very fast.

Best product I have ever reviewed, I recommend it to everyone!

on weekdays and travels everywhere with me, there are many functions, far from all are disassembled and used. Native covers are very expensive, I bought a hard one for the camera, once he saved him when he fell. Difficult to find underwater cases for it. I won't change it for any other. Some pros: I have been using the camera for 2 years, I bought it with one 18-55 lens, in general I really like it, the pictures are great without any processing, the video is amazing, but it’s better to do it

The right product for me, there were no problems.

In general, I am very satisfied with the purchase, after using numerous soap dishes, this one is just super. In the future, everything will depend on the study of photography. Pros: Of course, the quality of photos and videos. Excellent rotary display. Good sound when shooting video. Nimble, many frames in the series. Good flash. Different cons: Only if the lens cover is inconvenient, not the usual manual zoom, the display is very easily soiled, the BB on the machine indoors with an…

Satisfactory product quality, good price.

Sony engineers have made another masterpiece, another new world record…. The smallest camera with the largest sensor. We reduced the working length to a minimum and made the camera as flat as possible. Amazing. The direction of development is the most promising. But I just want to see the next model larger and more comfortable. And ideally, on a new technical basis, NEX will return to the previous concept of the Sony F828 camera.

Pros
  • Everything has already been written about them. I took it as a notebook - after all, a medium-format camera weighing 2 kg is always hard to carry with you. NEX-3 is ideal for long trips, hiking in the mountains…
Cons
  • Ergonomics is not thought out - a small uncomfortable handle, like soap dishes with a retractable lens. But after all, it would never occur to anyone to remove the lens in order to put the camera in a trouser pocket. Why is she so flat then? It would be more logical to make a normal, grippy handle, like, for example, the Sony Cyper-shot DSC-F828 (Sony's best camera in terms of ergonomics) or the Nikon Coolpix L100. And put in it a larger and more powerful battery. The camera menu is generally a separate song. This one's for the "what-where-when" lovers.

I have been the owner of this camera for a month now. I switched to it from a DSLR, because I got tired of taking a large carcass and lenses with me on trips. The camera justifies its cost by 100% Good creative modes, for example, to take a panoramic shot, just press the shutter and swipe from side to side, after which the camera will glue the panorama itself. Good autofocus, color reproduction, low noise at high iso

Pros
  • size, image quality, good creative modes
Cons
  • expensive lenses, flash does not turn up, weak battery

This is my first normal camera, before that - it's even funny to remember - there was an antediluvian film soap dish. ))) I am delighted with him, and not only me. He did great on vacation. )) The difference between the photos taken with 8-pixel cameras and mine is obvious. Therefore, for those who are afraid of DSLRs with their weight and other bells and whistles, this is an ideal option. Removable lenses should be on sale soon and I think I'll get them. The disadvantages of the fotik are…

Pros
  • The quality of shooting and video is superb. Stylish, unusual, eye-catching appearance. Accessible menu and tips, the ability to be creative.
Cons
  • Manual zoom, which on my model is only three times, the flash does not always work, only when it is very dark. In the evening, the camera can rely on its own strength without a flash, but I still haven’t figured out how to make it shoot with a flash (without automatics). Well, the battery drains quickly.

Good product for me, I was satisfied with the price.

In addition, adapters for Watering can rule - a short working length makes it possible to use watering lenses, I have already ordered an adapter for myself;) I took myself for these purposes, that you can fasten the best optics in the world and have a quality a cut above Nikon / Canon, with a total weight of the device of half a kilo. With its pros: It's fun to read some of the comments :) The quality of the Nex 3/5 matrices is not at the level of junior but quite adult DSLRs. They scold the

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

- the flash is removable, but small, even with the flash installed, it fits normally into the case, or you can keep the flash removed in a special container that is held on the strap Has pros: - a combination of compactness and quality close to DSLRs - rate of fire in normal quality (3 fps), high-speed shooting mode in a size reduced to 12mp (7 fps) - quickly turns on, almost immediately ready to work - convenient control with a minimum of buttons and a clear menu, a separate button for…

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

I have a model with an 18-55mm lens, 16mm they say worse, to be honest, I don’t know where. The color rendition in most cases is so distorted that you have to spend hours in Photoshop. The shutter sometimes wants to pull the camera out of your hands when you release it, which does not add sharpness to the pictures. Autofocus is a different story, on my copy there is a front focus at 18mm and a strong back focus at 55mm. Moreover, the service center cannot fix it. I quote the answer of the…

Pros
  • Compact; Easy; Sufficiently nimble; Ability to use different lenses; Beautiful:)
Cons
  • Color rendition, but this is to the lens; Focusing accuracy, strange as it sounds for contrast autofocus;

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

I bought it yesterday - I've been fiddling with it all day and I'm happy. The photos and videos are amazing! Has pros: In short, the main advantage is the quality of the images. There are truly intelligent modes, for example, if a picture is taken in the dark, twilight, then the device itself takes 6 quick shots, brings them together and a clear frame with high detail is obtained. There are plenty of such "pieces" in this model. Very clear control and. do not believe it, he teaches to take…

I'm satisfied, the product is exactly as described.

The video is very good, however, when recording a video, almost no parameters can be changed with the exception of exposure compensation. When I bought it, I thought for a long time that the price was too high, but when I tried it, the pictures are very high quality, not a single digital camera can compare with it. I don't regret the purchase at all. Some pros: 1. It is very easy to make a blurry background, took off my son's toys - just a feast for the eyes; 2. Very clear and bright pictures

No minuses as such, comfortable to use.

The reasoning of some owners about the fact that this camera is a replacement for a DSLR is amazing. NEX slows down by 80% compared to the oldest DSLR. It focuses very slowly and measures the exposure (on DSLRs this is done not by a matrix, but by additional sensors, except for the LV mode - hence the speed). But in the studio, with a tripod, with normal light, it’s good!

Pros
  • Really great matrix. A bunch of adapters for any glass.
Cons
  • Size - the camera is relevant only with glass 18-55, and this is far from compact. Not good for reporting.

Beyond praise! The product definitely deserves your attention.

An excellent hybrid of a soap dish with a SLR. Still, a DSLR is in any case big, heavy, and you have to deal with it, I don’t see the point of buying a professional camera and then taking pictures in auto mode. The soap dish does not give good quality photos. And this is what is needed. Pros: It is compact as a soap box, but at the same time the level of shooting is like that of a SLR. Therefore, separately in plus its small compact dimensions. Also, the possibility of changing lenses - they…

It's not a bad product, but I expect more.

I am an amateur. I bought the device for my daughter. I thought it was female and all that. But she, and then me, was not impressed by the apparatus during the filming. Many write in reviews that pale colors, pale skies, etc. I have a sky and colors are saturated, like in the Alps. But! Now oh. I regret that I chose Sonya Nex. For a similar price, something like the Nikon D3100 would be better.

Pros
  • Pretty light, quick-firing (although I don’t shoot a lot of series), sharpness
Cons
  • Price, settings through the menu. The lens cap was immediately lost.
