I saw Dy Divine's facebook page advertising NEX 5NK (with single lens 1855) RM1899 free 16GB class10, tripod, screen protector, sony video bag.

Think it's a good deal if it's RM1820 and it will continue to drop, especially once 5R and 6 is out and people start buying those.

I checked with the US sony store, they said NO international warranty. It's only valid in US. but I don't know about B&H cause mine was based on US sony store with special corporate discount but yet don't have international warranty so don't want to take the risk doh.gif

QUOTE(Redcross @ Oct 22 2012, 06:07 PM)

I'm using. Its a clip on screen protector then the hood clips onto the protector. It helps when shooting outdoors, much easier to see the lcd (brightness set to maximum). Got it from ebay seller. I only use it when necessary otherwise just remove it very easy to clip on and off.

Anyone using LCD Hood for nex here? How will it feel? Where to grab it? tq

go to ebay.com search for "nex pop hood", then do your survey and see. price range from $9.99 to as low as $6.99 with free shipping so it's about RM20-RM30

I think there are two other big differences, NEX 6 has the OLED EVF, 5R doesn't.... and also 6 has the built in flash, 5R doesn't...

For NEX6 even in US Sony Store, shipping will only start on 11 Nov 2012. Don't know whether available in Malaysia by 1/12....


QUOTE(Coolbreeze @ Oct 29 2012, 09:56 AM)
I still can't make up my mind to get 5r or 6 yet sad.gif

After reading bunch of reviews it seems the main advantage of 6 over 5r is

(i) handling
(ii) hotshoe
(iii) dual dial

but performance wise they are about the same? So is it worth it to pay extra rm500 for 6?  ohmy.gif

Also i really liked the 180 degrees flip of the 5r's screen, hard choice argh!  rclxub.gif

Btw i'm going to travel on the first of Dec, think the 5r and 6 will be in before that?
Thanks sifus for comments!  wink.gif
