    I’ve the NEX 5n and NEX 7 which I use with both “Zonies,” and Vintage Rollei/Zeiss MF lenses.
    I love the bigger light gathering pixels of the 5n for night and low light shots, and the 7 for Video, daytime shooting, and big prints.
    I love the almost “Medium Format Feel” of the NEX 7’s Negatives, because the software corrects soooo much aberration, distortion, and has such wonderful HDR like Jpegs

    I bought two nex5 back in the day and I agree with your recommendation for the newer 5 models. The original 5 has some annoying quirks, but for stills, I find it very usable, even 10 years later! Good to see a 2020 video discussing these cameras :)

  • @andrewpreston4127
    @andrewpreston4127 10 місяців тому

    This guy's assesments are essentally made on how good these cameras are for video/vlooging. Not a word about the other relative merits of each. I have a Nex-3 and also a Nex-3N. The 3N is smaller and lighter than the 3. One of the results of that is that it doesn't sit so easily in the hands, and is rather awkward for one handed use.

    Do any of these compete with the Eos M? Especially with the Magic Lantern firmware, but also with the stock one. I've been thinking of the 5R and 5T over these, and trying to figure out which to get for my sister. It would be nice to keep her in the E mount so I can help her find more glass (more familiar with E mount from my A6300), but the Eos M is super appealing to me for the aftermarket firmware support, and it's not like EF glass is bad or hard to come by. Might even be better for her. IDK.

    I have a NEX-5T: what type of lenses should I buy? Where can I get some second-hand lenses? I heard I could use an adapter to mount Canon lenses...would that be convenient? Is it because there are more second-hand Canon-type lenses around? (Very beginner here...sorry!) Thank you for your videos!!

      After watching *this video*, I bought a NEX-C3 and after one of the other ones I watched last week, I bought an a5100 because of you. These are both so far since I found your channel a couple weeks ago. (Definitely not because of my own GAS, this is all your fault, just to be clear.) I already had a ZV-E10 but I wanted to set up a few cameras for different things and keep them setup, rather than swapping bits all the time on a single one. I'm thrilled with all the choices, led by your guidance and good info. Thanks!

    The idea is to be able to use it as a 2nd camera together with an a6000, but always take it with you, take photos and create clips for content
    What can you recommend me?

    Nice studio there! I've been taking pictures with NEX 5 for quite a long time (never even tried the video option on the camera, I guess I am more interested in photography) but this camera is just great. I am a fine artist not a photographer and NEX 5 provides me with more than I have ever needed. All the Sony cameras are great, but when it comes to talk about lenses Sony really is not a good choice: very high price and limited choice of options. Affordable camera body and unaffordable lens.

    you are wrong about Interlaced , download a PC software for Interlacing , playback a movie at 24fps , you know like your video where i see individual images and it pains me to watch , just turn on Interlacing , BANG , its like 60fps ... the way it works is by simulating every other frame , it has a bit of artifacts , if you zoom in but in general is fantastic .
    And of course you can use it in post , its not BS i tell you , i can not watch movies without it . Because that 15FPS movies that everyone likes (24 fps actually ) i cant take it , its no good for me , i see every image , i have 20/20 eyesight and lightening reflexes , maybe its because of that . Maybe you see it different .
