This Sony E-Mount 16mm wide-angle lens delivers outstanding low-light performance and smooth, quiet Auto Focus operation. Designed to match the camera, it is a portable and versatile lens that is perfect for both shooting HD video and photos.
The Sony E-Mount 18-55mm OSS lens is versatile, shoot everything from scenic photos to happy-snaps and formal portraits, with built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilisation that enables you to shoot at shutter speeds up to 4 stops slower than would normally be possible.
Compatible with Sony's E-mount series of smaller, lighter lenses designed specifically for Alpha compact interchangeable lens cameras.
The Sony NEX5 uses same sensor format that Sony builds into the full-sized Alpha DSLR cameras. Sony's APS-C sized sensor makes the difference between recording 'happy-snaps' and memories.
The Sony NEX5 is the world's first interchangeable lens camera with 1080/60i AVCHD Full HD video, exactly the same resolution and frame rate as most broadcast and cable HDTV channels. Records in 1080/60i AVCHD format, 1080/30p high definition in PC friendly MP4 format and standard definition 480/30p in MP4 format.
With Sony's 14.2 megapixels APS-C sensor and Exmor HD CMOS technology, the NEX5 achieves high resolution with no penalty in low-light sensitivity or sensor noise.
Capture the moment with up to 7 frames per second.
Capture incredibly clear low-light pictures without sacrificing detail using ISO 1Digital Cameras00 sensitivity.
Capture scenic panorama shots in 3D. The camera records separate right-eye and left-eye images that make landscapes come alive on your 3D television. (3D TV and 3 D glasses required to view 3D images)
Anti Motion Blur corrects for subject movement to capture clean and sharp images in low light. The camera captures six images in a fraction of a second, then combines the data from all six to create a single image.
The 920 000 pixel LCD monitor has best-in-class resolution as of April 2010. This screen has a special resin layer to suppress internal reflections and increase contrast compared to conventional LCDs. A Sunny Weather mode boosts visibility even further when shootin in bright light.
An on-screen help guide provides ready reference and explains the camera's modes and settings.
25 point auto focus covers a very wide area of the scene for accurate focusing even when the subject is far from the center of the frame.
Anti-Dust Technology helps keep the CMOS sensor clean, resulting in consistently clear pictures.
