Hands-On With The Sony NEX-C3
The Sony NEX compact mirrorless camera system is one of the more exciting things to happen to camera technology in the past couple of years and it demonstrates Sony’s commitment to innovative camera design. Even though it looks more like a point-and-shoot camera than a digital SLR, Sony’s $650 entry-level NEX-C3 uses the same large […]

Sony was a latecomer to digital SLRs. But don’t let that fool you into thinking they don’t have game. About six years ago they bought all of Konica-Minolta’s digital SLR patents and a few months later they released their digital SLR, the Sony Alpha A100. There was a lot of skepticism about Sony’s ability to […]

I predicted 2011 was going to be a big year for Sony and they just came through in a big way. Last week they announced four new cameras, including the 24-megapixel Sony Alpha SLT-A77.

Sony’s new top-of-the-line NEX-7 mirrorless camera is a departure both in design and pricing. A lot of the new features and specs are also in the new, less expensive Sony Alpha NEX-5N (improved auto focus, reaction time, etc.). But Sony has clearly built the NEX-7 for professional photographers and serious enthusiasts. It has a super-high-resolution […]
Read More »Sony Alpha SLT-A65 Translucent Mirror Camera
The Sony Alpha SLT-A65 was announced last week along with the SLT-A77. It’s a 24-megapixel translucent mirror DSLR-style camera. I say, “DSLR-style” because the SLT-A65 replaces the TTL optical viewfinder of a traditional SLR with a 2.3-million-dot OLED electronic viewfinder (EVF). The transparent mirror design makes the camera faster and allows it to use continuous […]

Read More »Sony Alpha NEX-C3 Announced
Last year Sony entered the compact system camera space with their popular Alpha NEX-5 and NEX-3 cameras. The NEX cameras combined compact camera size and styling with interchangeable lenses and digital SLR image quality. Last week Sony introduced their first update to the NEX concept, the NEX-C3. Like the NEX-5 and NEX-3, the NEX-C3 has […]
