IMO the 3N is actually a step down in features.No accesorry port, lower-res screen, still no PDAF (same as F3).But it is smaller and lighter than the F3, and the new 16-50PZ lens will be included...

"the 3N misses out on the faster on-sensor phase-detection autofocus seen on the 5N"

I assume you mean the 5R, as the 5N does not have on-sensor phase-detection.

"It also continues to offer the...

Thank you for the detailed explanation.I guess now I'll just have to wait for the new F20M to enter the market.I absolutely agree with you on the hotshoe issue, and that is why I'm confused over...

It seemed more appropriate to ask the question here than starting a new thread, so here goes:Will a third-party standard-ISO flash (like a cheap YongNuo) work (meaning TTL, etc) with the new NEX-6...

What about IQ?Will there be a noticable difference between the two?

Title says it all.Both combos are about the same price in China.Pros of SAL35f18 LA-EA2 combo:DSLR-like focus speedMore lens selection in the future (A-Mount)Pros of SEL35f18:Native E-mountLess...

For those bashing the new 20/2.8 price, do remember that this is "only" the announced MSRP price and will probably go down in price quite fast.My estimate is that it'll be 200-250$ before you know...

I would like to know about this too.I can actually see that in high-ISO the 5N actually performs better than the nex-6

Get the 5N.The difference between 5N and 5R is minimal, almost all the new features are gimmicks excluding control dial and Phase detection Auto-focus (which you don't need because you don't...

I did a few more tests this morning and it appears that AF has no focusing problem in bright light.Seems like the problem is only showing in low-light scenes.This isn't conclusive though, I still...

Yes, I am indeed referring to the lens firmware update.The update lets the old lenses to focus using hybrid AF.Even with the updated lens firmware, I don't seem to be having a back-focus problem...

Confirmed, this back-focusing problem is also present on my NEX-6.To answer Jefftan's question, I tested using the old 18-55 kit (updated lens firmware) and it does not have a back-focus problem.At...

From those who had experience with both the 16-50 PZ and the 18-55 kit lens,which one would you pick if size isn't an issue (I carry a bag either way), and I don't do videos.So basically what I'm...

I chose not to argue with the costumer service ;)I do THINK that I won't be using the Apps that much anyway, just dissapointed, that's all, and I do hope it gets fixed in future updates.The most...

Thank you all for the replies.I just wanted to get it off my chest and hope that Sony realize this mistake and will correct it in future fimrware upgrades.As to the laws and censorships, I agree...

No, as I stated above, the return policy here is different. Unless there's a defect, I'm not able to return opened goods.This is one solution, but do you know how to flash the firmware to the camera?

I agree.China does censor media's, particularly social ones like Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, but they do have their own Chinese version that adhere to the local law (Weibo, RenRen, Youku).I'm...

I wouldn't count on it, many just accepts it for what it is, others import from Hong Kong (Hong Kong version has Apps)

Nothing so extreme ;)but yeah, the amount of censorship is crazy here.
