I have an NEX-5 and an NEX-7 - personally I love my 7. it does what I want and it produces excelent images. Because it has 24 mp I can downsize my images to the same size as I would get with 16mp and any high ISO advantage the 16mp camera might have had when viewing ay 100% pretty much goes away. I also like to carry a single lens having 24m allows me to stand a bit further back when shooting portraits and then crop to get the same perspective and MP I would get shooting with a longer lens on a 16mp camera.

Now I know the 7 isnt perfect, if you shoot with wide angle range finder lenses and have corner issues its not the best choice, but if like me you shoot e-mount lenses I dont see any reason why you should take a step back down to the NEX-6

oh and just so you know - my NEX-7 was a gift from my work. I have not invested one single cent in it, so unlike many here I am not just defending a purchase decision - if they had given me an OMD I would have shot that and if it were a POS I would have said so and if the 7 were a pos I would say so.
