Of course until I have shot with either the A77 or NEX-7 I won’t know. More pixels generally means less light sensitivity when it comes to sensors. The NEX-7 which comes out at the end of the year has a non pivoting version of this EVF but has the same chip in it as the A77. What is not so nice is it will set you back up to $400 which makes the NEX5-N much pricier. It has 2.4 million dots and is simply the clearest, sharpest viewfinder I have ever seen, and it has red peaking! It pivots too which is nice. One feature that is not standard but is a must-buy accessory is the OLED EVF. It’s a bit fiddly as there are not many buttons on it, but that is a compromise that has to happen due to the tiny size. It takes nice pictures too and has a crazy amount of features. Full HD slow motion for a tiny APS-C camera is a big deal for me. Key features for me are an improved chip and light sensitivity and this.1080p 25p/50p for Europe and 24p/30p/60p for the USA. The updated version is the NEX5N and it’s much better than the previous one. Now, I have an NEX5 and to be honest it simply never grabbed me for various reasons. Be it my trusty Canon S95 or more recently this new camera that I have just got. I also, like many, never leave home without a proper camera. Always the right camera for the right job. I am not a camera snob, and just because I own an Epic does not mean that is all I shoot with. The ones I use constantly for paid work are the Canon DSLRs, F3, FS100 and RED Epic with a little bit of GH2. Obviously the king of my collection is my RED Epic. Out of those, many are just part of my collection, old Super 8mm cameras, old Video 8 cameras, old film 35mm cameras and of course a fair few DSRLs, full size camcorders both HD and SD, mid size HD camcorders like EX1, JVC 201 (no idea why I still have that!), Z1 and then new S35 cameras like the F3 and FS100. I have, at the last count about 50 or so cameras in my collection. They are my equivalent of handbags (actually I had quite a few man bags too!) I don’t care which company makes them. What may seem ordinary and familiar to the people who live there can be surprising to those who do not. The BBC Close-up series focuses on aspects of life in countries and cities around the world.

Often housed in beautifully grand and ornate buildings, coffee houses are so much a part of the fabric of the Austrian capital that Unesco recently included them on their list of intangible cultural heritage – describing them as places “where time and space are consumed, but only the coffee is found on the bill.”īethany Bell went along to Vienna’s Cafe Weimar and Cafe Diglas to find out more. For the price of a hot drink and perhaps a piece of cake, customers can come and spend the day, just relaxing with friends or reading the newspaper. Vienna’s coffee houses are often called the city’s “public living rooms”. Moiré and aliasing are surly there but after working with the Canon 7d how can I complain…:)Ĭamera DID NOT warm up and shut off probably due to the fact that I was working with EVF connected and my sequences (even the interviews) did not stress the camera to the limit. Its low light capability is very nice and working in even 1600 ISO is a absolutely “worry free”. The little Sony is a lot of fun to work with. It is part of our ongoing effort to test different modern working tools. The reason is simple, she lets me do my job….:).Ī minute before the new Canon C300 and Nikon D4 are here to lift the picture quality bar, here is our attempt to work with the Sony NEX5n in a “normal short feature for broadcast environment”. Working together with my BBC correspondent Bethany Bell is a cameraman’s dream come true.
