I've been using the Sony Nex-5 since December and have been having a great time shooting photos with it. The Sony Nex-5 intends to fill that gap -- a lightweight camera that's almost as portable as a PnS yet has the flexibility and has as much raw power as most entry-level dSLRs. The body of the Nex-5 is composed mostly of magnesium alloy and if there's no long lenses attached to it, one could practically mistook it for a point-and-shoot. The controls on the unit are pretty familiar, so much so if you've been using other Sony cameras. Here's a sample below I took using the Nex-5 with kit lens (click on image to see larger version). Suggested retail price of the Sony NEX-5 is Php37,999 that includes the standard zoom lens (18-55mm f/3.5-5.6). Touted by Sony as the world's smallest and lightest interchangeable lens camera, the Alpha NEX5 was launched today in the Philippines. The Sony NEX-5 sits between Sony's Cybershot and Alpha dSLR line of cameras. Read more in our articles including "Sony Nex-5 Review" and "Sony Alpha NEX-5 launched!".
