Sony NEX-5R

Sony NEX-5R - Mark HolyoakeWhat really represents a new digital camera from Sony?

The new NEX-5R camera from Sony certainly has a lot of technical novelty, but is really is so good to think about this purchase? Let’s check what it has inside.

Sony claims that it has newly developed sensor, which it has almost same specifications as NEX-5N model, 16.1MP and ISO range from 100-25,600.

Sensor is connected with Sony’s BIONZ processor for better, low-noise image processing and higher ISO, also thanks to this processor the camera is able to take 10fps in Speed Priority mode.

A 3 inches touch screen can be used to fire the shutter, fortunately this option can be turned off to avoid taking unwanted pictures.

And one most important change, this is first Sony digital camera which has interchangeable lenses.



Is it worth the money?

Price for basic kit will reach £699 (kit with 18-55mm) is not a best price for this type of digital camera. Their closest rivals provide cameras that has similar specifications are £170-210 cheaper. His younger brother can still take breathtaking, super quality pictures for £280 cheaper as it has same sensor.



Do I need to replace my older model?
