Thread: Alpha NEX 5

Although externally it appears rather same to its predecessor, the Sony has created rather some interior alters that are desirable of note. Its 16.1-megapixel EXMOR APS-C sensor is a slight upgrade of the NEX-5's 14.2 megapixels, but the news is the sensor's novel electronic first-curtain exposure mechanism, permitting the NEX-5N to realize a pre-focus lag time of just 0.02 second.


The novel sensor and Bionz processor even permit capture of Full HD video at 60p. A novel touchscreen adds some functions, but doesn't function to substitute any existing functions. The NEX-5N is as well the 1st NEX -- or squeeze system camera for that subject -- to achieve 10 frames per second at complete result.


The front of the NEX-5N is as well a small variant, with a slight bevel behind the lens, where the company and Alpha logos now live. "5N" is as well stumped within the front end of the clasp following to the close button.


The grip has a novel wider dimpled chad form in place of the increased bump form. Otherwise those items, there's extremely small different on the front. The 16 mm f / 2.8 lens is displayed supported here, although it's not supported on the image below.


The Sony NEX-5N is depended around the combination of a 16.1 megapixel Exmor APS HD CMOS image sensor, and the company's proprietorship Bionz image processing engine. Although the result is extremely end to that of the late NEX-C3, the sensor is actually novel developed.


On a 3:2 distinct ratio, the NEX-5N can supply maximal picture proportions of 4912 x 3264 pixels at full result, 2 further 3:2 aspect ratio results are usable: 3568 x 2368 pixels, or 2448 x 1624 pixels. The NEX-5N even supplies a choice of three 16:9 aspect ratio shooting modes, each of which has the same pixel width as its 3:2 aspect counterpart, but with heights of 2,760, 2,000 or 1,376 pixels respectively.
