I sure hope so.  Siting a 2012 NEX-5R that cost about $600 usd against a 3yrs old Olympus e-PL1 that cost around $150 usd then proclaim triumph......Classic! I have personally try Olympus e-PM1,...

To be fair, you can always buy an EVF for your NEX.  However, you lose the Flash doing so.   Even the low end E-PM1 or any Panasonic camera is about 3-4x faster AF than NEX.  M43 is the best...

No, Nikon V1 I tried is impressively fast. Nikon's hybrid AF actually works, which is why I placed such an high hope on sony's cdaf/pdaf hybrid sensor as well. But when NEX-6 came out, the focus is...

Well said, EVF (no matter how good it is) is just a poor substitute for a good optical viewfinder.  You see the world as your own eyes see it, no delay, no graininess, no EVF blackout in between...

Steve, you have any proof that 5R is a significant faster than 5N? Most review I read say it makes little to no difference. Search NEX forum and I encounter numerous advice that you're better off...

Just because something doesn't suit our taste (assuming your high 30+ like me) doesn't mean young generation feel the same way. DPR photographer tend to be gear-heads and raw snubs. But in the real...

Panasonic GF series have what I called the Quality Heft.  I feel much heavier than it looks, has a decent Heft to it that give it a solid build quality.  However, that extra solid weight is not to...

Agree. While Olympus/Panasonic are the better camera, Canon is the better system with superior distribution, support, name recognition, and that marketing skill. Canon with an half-ass effort, bad...

Agree, Samsung is the better camera (I'll give you that).  However, invest $700 in an unproven Samsung system is too risky.  Samsung has failed to market itself, it has no system support from...

I own KM5D, it was my 1st DSLR and a good one. APS-C is about 40% bigger than M43, combine that with low 6mp resolution = good noise control and good dynamic range. As much as I love KM5D...its...

I like Pentax Camera because it has 3 quality I love: Big Optical Viewfinder Small Size K-7 in impare to Canon 60d or Nikon D7000 AA Battery options However, Pentax lens doesn't have the...

Wow, $350 as official price would be a no brainier decision.  The flash alone cost around $120 in USA

Actually Pentax is already #3 by default without effort. Sony has given up on the mirror box with Optical Viewfinder in favor of Electronic viewfinder. Sony SLT is like a "really BIG" compact...

Same here, that is my impression when I got my hand on an EOS-M as well.  It was surprisingly-not-bad...and not too slow either.  It focus about as fast as an Olympus E-PL1 + Panny 20mm f/1.7.  I...

You're not alone, K-30 looks like a RACE BIKE, Love it!

Yes, Lead Type STM is an huge improvement over Micro STM. Not only is it faster, it is also much quieter: STM isn't driven by sonic waves, so there are no ring type stm, just Lead type vs Gear...

How much did you pay for 18-55mm STM seperately?

Love the huge bokeh highlight and the ultra-shadow DOF.  I ususally prefer entire face in focus, but this photo greats great with chin slightly out of focus.  Love it.  A very light touch of color...

Agree. I love photojournalism, its my FAVORITE style of photography (see profile/challenges). But there are less and less jobs available @newspaper....whom is dying anyways. Like this: Chicago...
