Two new cameras were announced by Sony today — the Sony NEX-C3 and the Sony Alpha A35. Sony is looking to grab the title of “smallest camera with interchangeable lens” after making the NEX-C3 even smaller than the NEX-3.

I’m already a fan of the Sony NEX series, after reviewing the Sony Nex-5 last January.

The Nex-C3 and the Alpha A35 are set to be released in August this year.

That said, I’m more interested on the upcoming NEX-7 and Zeiss 24mm. The 16mm is a nice pancake, but a bit wide for my purpose. The Zeiss (36mm equiv.) would be perfect and will be more suitable on a more serious body like the NEX-7. If it has an EVF, even a detachable one, that would make me migrate from the m43 camp and to Sony’s APS-C mirrorless. Good thing I have a few vintage lenses that I can still use, just need new adapters.
