Yeah, they are pretty comparable. When i bought it i thought if they cost pretty much the same, why not go for the newer model, but i guess the argument could go the other way since the 5N is several times better at continuous shooting. I don't have the 5N, so can't compare personal experience XD

I understand that sony did offer top up few hundred bucks for F3 package will get the SEL50F18, did you know the offer can grab it?

oops din followed the thread recently
f3 owners please post some picture!!

its just me or what i can't seems to find a good sample picture from nex users
in contrast when i look into OMD or even xz-1 it seems the site is flooded with good picture from all sorts of kind,landscape,streets,people,portrait,art
i hope is not indication of nex real world performance as i'm looking to invest into nex system

Try YL camera at PUDU Plaza. I will try to post some photos later

yeap,i have the same feeling as well,especially after reading this review
http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/8/3069074/sony-nex-f3-review

i don care what the author say in the review,but the image is either very overexpose or underexpose,the strawberry shots also has red clipping(over saturate red),and somewhat softness in the image,its just awful

Went to try out the 5n n f3 today... Guess I can't used this camera I find it difficult to do the setting. I never compare it with my dslr but I was thinking of something at least as easy to set as my s90 but was kinda of disappointed after trying.

NEX5N + 35mm F1.7 CCTV Lens.

i was at the same position with u at that moment, but after sometimes i feel nex setting is quite ok...
ofcos most of the dslr comes with dial on top, just twist will do... nex need to touch screen n slowly select...
pro and cons larr

I'm not aware of that, sorry. I got mine from Canada's SonyStyle website days after it was announced. Not a lot of options then.

it is more to photographer dependent.
if you take good picture, what camera also nice.

The NEX is a good camera. Just that the people who uses it may not be good enough.

Sony NEX-F3 already available in malaysia? Yesterday I'm hunting around some Sony centre but they said F3 haven't arrived yet ,pls share where u all bought ur new F3, thx

Sony NEX-5 + Sigma 19mm f/2.8

Sunset at Coolangatta looking towards Surfers Paradise, Qld, AU. Note that this lens is very good in managing flares.


Marina at Coffs Harbour, NSW, AU.


The usual stuff.


Another good flare-control example. Pacific Ocean @ Coffs Harbour, NSW.


Sunset at Pt Macquarie, NSW.

I'm looking to replace my damaged Sony compact (quoted price to fix: 640MYR )
The camera will be used during travelling and for normal daily shots.

Currently looking at the NEX-F3, but is the predecessor, NEX-C3 a better camera in general (based on reviews I skimmed through) ? The price of F3 is lower than C3 at YL Camera though.

Or should I straight aim for the NEX-5N.

I would like to ask for some recommendation and advice on getting a sony nex cam.

Beginner in photography, was planning to get nex C3 twin lens package but den a friend of mine suggest me getting nex 5N with 18-55mm, and top up with lens later on. Getting 5N twin lens is way out of my budget for now.

So shud i stick with C3 twin lens or go with 5N 18-55mm lens only?
Thanks in advance for help ^^

Nice picture bro .... picture look very sharp and detail with Sigma 19mm f/2.8

RM2200 a good price for 5NK? (Harvey norman MV)

or are there shops that sell cheaper? (apparently RM2200 is normal price from garage sales threads)

I'm a beginner just like you. bought C3 with twin lens back in February, i wasn't aware of 5N at that time....i was looking for entry level non PnS camera. I was checking out Panasonic GF3 and NEX C3. From my point of view, if we are beginner, and dunno much about lens, kit lens 18-55mm is good enough. I would go for 5N if the price is only a slight different. Well, if you have look into different lens, and would like to have the wide angle pencake lens 16mm then I would probably go for C3 twin lens. FYI, 5N has touch screen and we can add remote shutter control device.

Now with F3, the newer model...I'm not sure what I will choose if I'm you now....F3 has added self-portrait, auto portrait framing and some cool features. The physical outlook look quite similar to NEX 7. You probably have to go to shop and try it out to find out what you like. F3 has twin lens package, as well as the SEL50F18 option as well.
