any one here with NEX-5N know why I got this message "cannot record to DVD disc at 24M(FX) on movie settings?.
I got sandisk sdhc that support 30MB/s..but still cant choose the 24MB & 28MB movie record settings.

and where is the 1080 with 60i settings? it does not appear on the menu.
should NEX-5N support 60p and 24p HD video?

The message is just a reminder that you cannot put the video directly onto a DVD. It has nothing to do with your SD card.

Local 5N records videos at 50p/i and 25p/i. You won't notice the difference.

besides, Sony provide a lot of free workshops almost every weekend.
it is very beneficial for ppl new to photography like me.

if you join the Alphanatics forum, u can see a lot of Pro also use NEX too especially for personal shooting!!!

To all Sifu here , is there any nice service camera shop can recommend in Damansara area ? I went three shop but when i ask wheather i can test the camera or not then their face change to black colour . I need a shop that can test properly before I buy , i never use sony camera before have to make sure is it easy to setup for me thanks..

For NEX 5N it's the clicking noise issue only la. Nikon 1 sensor smaller than NEX ASP-C and smaller than micro 4/3 sensor, so that's already one factor to sway your decision.


Yea, this is true.

what about those 1080 60p with slowmo effect? I did not see those option in settings.

i got about 5 nikon lens... 2 nikon bodies..
did i buy nikon 1 for my "jalan2 kamera"

no.. i use nex with nikon adapter...

I believe that you could test the camera in sony centre, midvalley the Garden or The Curve will be the best place for your testing

Seagull SYK-5 + Nissin DI622 II, new from Studio Zaloon yesterday evening, thanks to this thread's poison. I know nothing about off camera flash, so this indeed opens a new can of unknowns for me haha.. excited.


Room was totally dark when this shot fired. This thing fires each time.. even when the NEX flash is set to -2, cover nex flash with my palm, even as i adjusted fill flash, slow sync, shutter speeds from 1/20 to 1/160.

NEX-5N does not have such video effects. In fact, I'm not aware of any mirrorless that has such effects in 1080p. Nikon 1 series does it, but only for 2.5 second clips (Motion Snapshot).

join the Alpha Flash workshop!! u learn a lot from basic theory to real model shooting!!
also u can also learn this:

So tempted to buy EVF or the 50mm... but only have cash for one of these.
Which one should I go for

So all those slowmo clips from nex5n was made using a software rite?
Anyway, as fir the 1080p60, its for ntsc unit, mine is hk model which use PAL system so it stated 1080p50 on the settings.

Hi, whats the price for these both? btw, you can test to snap the effect of the water splashing with something dropping off and you need a high speed shutter flash sycn e.g. 1/1250(when attached an external flash unit), but the limitation of nex is only went to 1/160 max.

50mm

EVF is not a must to help you improve image quality.
But a good 50mm will be very essential especially for taking portrait.

how much did u bought for beagull SYK-5 & Nissin DI622 II?

#41

#42

#43

#44

#45

#46

#47

#48

#49

#50

What they actually do is shoot at 50p/60p and then encode the video to 24/25, hence the slow motion effect.

I've got no Aquarium. But i'll attempt something similar when i got time.. using a drinks chiller box?? haha . I didn't even know that Flash unit can Zoom in and out, until I heard the DI622 making some mechanical noises. I thought I had bought a transformers decepticon .

Opening price RM55 for SYK-5 and RM450 for DI622 II(nikon ittl). You may try to bargain la , might get slightly less than that.

Serewen, do we really need 1/1250 for such a shot? The DI622 has a test button at the back which will fire the flash. Can also manually press it and full manual sync.
