In reply to Wicked Pigeon, 6 months ago

its simple the NEX 6 compares well to the 5 series and seriously falls short in everything when compared to the flagship NEX 7, no matter what anyone says about low light, etc I have a C3, a 5N and a 7 all wonderful, but the NEX 7 is head and shoulders above the other two. I used a NEX 6 a friend of mine had for a day and returned and found it equal to my 5n, no better( or even different in most ways). I think the wifi is a useless feature that was added so as to differentiate the new cameras from the preceeding series and adds nothing to the camera as such. I can not tell in real terms if there is actually any difference in the output of the new 16mp sensor from the older one as when I compared the same pictures there was no difference i could see, even on a 65" screen

There is no contest, especially for close to the same money, the NEX 7 is still the champ. I imagine when the 7n or whatever they will call it next year comes out it will be a cheaper build and use the same sensor while adding wifi and maybe something else that we don't need to take good pictures. I expect that the full frame NEX will be my next camera
