Sony Alpha NEX-3 Review
Announced May 11, 2010
•
14 megapixels | 3″ screen | APS-C sensor
dpreview conclusion
The NEX-3 is a brave and interesting attempt to make a true crossover camera for compact camera users wanting access to a larger sensor and interchangeable lenses. And, although it isn't a flawless point-and-shoot camera, it offers a great feature set at a competitive price in a conveniently small body.
Good for
Gadget lovers, Panoramics, Enthusiast photographers wanting APS-C image quality in a tiny package.
Not so good for
Fast action shooting.
