1. I'd say F3 and 3N have the same ISO levels. Don't bother too much about ISO 16k, 25k, as it's more to marketing hype. I think seriously, we'd probably go up to a comfortable maximum of iso3200.

3N F3 sensor comparison.

2. Viewfinder, so that you won't be shooting blind in bright sunlight. When u place the camera to your face, it's considered a 3rd point of contact to your body and that helps to stabilize the camera even more. Perhaps..it's handy when you don't want others to peek at what you just snapped .

D3200 has 24 good megapixels, better for cropping out parts of your pic. It also has a built in microphone input, intervalometer and arguably more native AF + exif data lenses to choose from and longer battery life. NEX-6 is smaller/lighter but you will use more menu's , it has an electronic viewfinder EVF that shows you the result in REALTIME which is a BIG advantage,manual focus peaking, a 'standard' hotshoe, the flip screen let's you take waist level shots so easily (ok but.. D5100 D5200 EOS650D also has this) , wifi and downloadable apps. To me, you can't go wrong with either one as with good skills both will give you excellent pictures.

Canon also just introduced it's world smallest DSLR the SL1, which narrows down the size advantage held by mirrorless cameras.

NEx-6 LCD is also articulated and can flip up and down to a certain degree. I ride a roadie and yes , NEX is a nice size to have in the waterbag backpack and I have taken it along for a few rides.

your comment is brief but in some ways it sums it up nicely haha..

NEX-7N is coming..

Also, unconfirmed rumor has it that, Sony will fix the NEX-6 +SELP1650 'Back focus' issue in an upcoming firmware. If this is true, it's great news!!


maybe this will help: dpreview similar query

Otherwise, if anyone's attending a NEX workshop soon, can help to ask the instructor to get the teleconverter and A lens to test it out?? Well, during workshops Sony has been kind enough to lend us A / E bodies or lenses to use during the workshop period.


Hmm... not at the moment.

For now, I'm using the same Japan PSN id on the PS3 for the NEX-6. So if you are an existing PS3 player then u probably can do the same.

wow!.. you're the 1st Nex-3N on our list!! . Welcome and keep your shots coming with NEX.

If I were a girl, i would pick F3 out of the two. BUT... there is the new model 3N. With an even slimmer kit lens it fits better in the handbag and this would be my pick. For roughly RM1600 to 1700, take the NEX-3N .

1. The screen that can flip to the front. Perfect for Selca/Selfie/Self capture shots.
2. Built in flash, so you don't need to also carry that screw on flash of 5N
3. Not sure if girls buy pink colored cameras?? Would you??

which mount are you thinking of? Or are you tying to ask about some mount adapter??


Same sensor. But what do you mean by efficient? formally.. Efficient => low waste.

Share ONE of your recent Rainy Day pics ?


Share ONE of your recent 'election' pics?

a)


b) didn't dare bring NEX to the voting saluran. Afraid some fanatic comes and smash it up.

1. An interesting read. This guy dumps a full frame D800 in favor of a NEX-7.

2. Could someone tryout the DSLR remote app on Android/Google play store OR Apple store with their NEX?? I think it is possible that some free app must be in the market now, which will allow you to remote trigger or TIME LAPSE via mobile phone IR port. Please post your experiment results here and I'll gladly put it up on the 1st page for future reference. Thanks !!

p.s. my current phone doesn't have IR port sadly, so I can't do this. But really itching to try this.. now looking for a micro UBS IR adapter i can plug into my phone. if you know any , do let me know.

Yes, you can use right away. i guess u might want to charge the battery overnight b4 use. get a screen protector if its not included. more important.. have fun!


option1. about rm950 street price, will be more compact without LA-EA.

Yo.. anyone going to C2 Age event this weekend? Maybe can meet up.

Playmemories mobile app updated yesterday. Go get it

Saw this on Sunday.. at Sony Center Klang.

Mostly I use it when under bright sunlight,
or when I really need to be stable on the shot with slower shutter since we have the 3rd contact point of the camera on the face.


Cool , I like these 2. Takes alot of right things, right time and right place to get Lighting shots like that!!

Nice touch on the star filled night sky with the light trails.

Still under warranty, yes they will take your camera in to check and fix.

Could you try different e-mount lenses to see if the issue still happens?? Perhaps the issue is on the lens and not the camera body. Try also to clean the gold color contact points on both lens and body, see if that works.

i think I would go for F3 if I find a new one with warranty.
