Sony NEX-5N vs NEX-5R

What customers say about Sony NEX-5N vs NEX-5R?

1. lol the guy talks about how the camera doesn’t have a built on flash, or a built on viewfinder. Really guy? Isn’t that what DSLR’s are for? Don’t people get it? These smaller, compact mirrorless systems AREN’T DSLR! It’s compact and it’s good enough for many OTHER shooters out there. Not everyone has to have a built on flash, or a view finder. If you want both those things, THIS camera is NOT for you…simple as that! Stop all the bitching already!

2. I just purchased the camera and it is great the Wi-Fi is excellent it is not a gimmick. if you use Instagram and you are tired of quality of photos from your iPhone this makes it very easy to upload pictures from the Nex5r to Instagram or Flickr. Now you don’t have to wait to get Home to upload your pictures to the world. I have a canon 7d but this camera is more convenient for every day use. I use the canon only for paid jobs. And I use the nex for B-camera footage if I’m shooting video.

3. this camera is really good for its cheap price. I have the nex 5 and nex 7 and i wished the nex 7 had lower resolution. I think nex 5N is little better than nex 5 but for me the nex 5R is not better than 5N.

4. Rather than getting NEX-5R for $750, I bought NEX-5N on sale for $430 and will use the savings to buy the new 1.8 prime lens, the SEL35F18. Better overall bang for your buck!

5. and how would they trigger the flash???…
   It has no PC sync socket either.

6. looking forward to your video on nex-5r vs nex 6

7. Try recording with the screen out a bit.

8. The 5N also has a tilty screen

9. @Clintondmb Its not too much to ask for a Camera to perform how it states in the manual! (29min clips) Suggesting to people to buy other products is counter intuitive to say the least! If i wanted to buy a camcorder i wouldn’t be inquiring about these issues. Nowadays people want SMALL interchangeable lens cameras for VIDEO! Yes its True believe it or not!! (smh)

10. if you’re needing to shoot more than ten minutes of video at a go. buy an
    actual camcorder.

11. CAn I use the EVF from the 5N to the 5R¿?

12. I don’t like the black one I have the white

13. If it kept its capacitive screen like the 5N, I would’ve bought it by now!

14. The volume of the intro is a little loud compared to the rest of the video. Turn up the voice next time.

15. There is a reason for why the touch screen of the NEX-5R is less responsive than the one on the NEX-5N: because it’s resistive instead of capacitive. I reallt don’t have a clue why Sony would do such a major mistake.

16. with the price i can get a better slr~ the $ factor keeps me away from these types of cameras~

17. Denied.

18. Well, technically you did say first while you said you were not going to say it.

19. thank you lol

20. unsub

21. Shell out a bit more for a NEX-6 then I guess.

22. sprite nails were thoseee

23. It’s an excellent camera… but it’s almost beside the point. The NEX-6 doesn’t cost that much more and for $1,000US you get the pancake 16-50 zoom, built in EVF, and a built-in flash. The NEX-F3 uses the same sensor but costs much less and the only trade off is no touch screen less flexible screen. Sony should have done more to distinguish this model other than offer a touch screen. Plus both the F3 and 6 have a sturdier body which helps balance the lens better.

24. first comment :p

25. not gonna fuc*ing say first
