Which one would you buy ? Nex 5T or the A5000 ?

No, I would not. The software is not extensive enough for photograph correction and adjustment.

Frankly speaking, personally, I don't like touch screen. From my own experience, touch screen will NOT work properly if the weather is too dry or too high humidity. That's the reason why I bought the Sony a5000. Also, you will need an external connection flash for the Nex 5T. Although Nex 5T and a5000 are very similar, you should compare the specifications before making final decision.

I ordered the A5000 for my daughter. She wanted something that was small and would fit in her bag. She also wanted something that had the possibility to change lenses. Her husband is in to photography and recommended we get it for her birthday. She loves it! Hope that helps!

both the same size. 5T is older model, and 10 fps, I tried it in Best Buy, it's amazing fast, like a machine gun. 25000 iso but only 16.1 mp. A5000 is newer model. only have 16000 iso and 4fps. I bought A5000 because 20.1 mp and newer version and has flash. If you shoot sport a lot, then 5t is better.

Size is a big difference for me. The A710IS is a bit larger. Also, the top ISO for the A710IS is only 800. Also, I believe the A570IS has video capability while the A710IS does not.I was debating between the A570IS, A710IS, and SD750, and finally settled on buying the A570IS because of it's size, performance, relative ease of use, cost, and batteries.

Hi Carrie,Picture quality with the nex-5 is great- I think it might be the flash that's an issue. The Nex-5's flash is small and quite delicate. If you're doing a lot of interiors, you might look at the Nex-6, which I believe has a more traditional shoe for the flash. The nex-5 flash is finicky to attach (it works fine) and doesn't appear rugged enough for me to comfortably leave attached to the camera.

My answer is biased. I'd pick the EM5 because the body and lenses are smaller, can adapt almost every other manufacture's lenses, has in body stabilization, the body is water resistant, focuses faster and image quality is the same. This camera changed micro 4/3 to the forefront of digital photography!

I dont have the nex5r so i cant really tell ypu.I do lnow that nex6 has 2 dials for manual controls (that operate as 3 dials because a button swotches the function) and that is very useful. The 5r is more touchscreen based. Not sure abput dials.Als the nex6 jas a very useful built in flash. More useful than most digital cameras because it is flexible and you can point it up to bounce light off the ceiling). I dont think the 5r has this.In terms of image quality and performance they should be about the same.

They don't. Both have different use. If you prefer a point-and-shoot, go with the S9500. But if you prefer to be patient with the DP3, you'll be rewarded with amazing image quality for its size.

Brad - I don't think you can go wrong with either camera. Add to for your consideration the Sony HX5 - it's on a par with these two. I looked long and hard at all 3 of these, researching specs and comments, as well as trying them out in camera stores, etc. I finally chose the S8100, although only coming out in September the amount of reviews is sparse - but even compared to the S8000 earlier model the improved S8100 proves to be a great camera. One thing I really like is the heft and feel of the camera, as well as the professional and high quality look and detail of the camera. It's a joy to take photos with this camera. The photos from it are stunning.

Yes, this is the successor to the NEX 6 and 7, at least for the time being. There is no A7000 or higher model currently publicly announced, and while there could be in the future, it is merely speculation at this point. If you are looking to upgrade your NEX 7 now, this is the model.

I use an NEX 7 and it works fine. Ask your question on the dpreview forums where there is a lot of A7 talk.

Thanks for the reply! I do have a back up, a Sony 2.5 megapix I got around 2001. The D5000 gives you a much better picture to work with , I like to use RAW files with Photoshop which the Sony doesn't do. I've read the info on Nikon's site and will send it in. Our grandbaby (4 months old) is coming for a visit tomorrow for a few days and I plan to send it in after the visit. I'll miss it. . .The camera and the grandbaby.

I was also deciding on these 2 cameras as a gift for my parents and ended up going with the A570. Another difference I saw with the A570 was the Face Detection feature and the improved Red-Eye Correction - I don't remember seeing those 2 features on the A710. In addition to that, my final deciding factor was the fact that the A570 is a newer model in the Powershot series.If you haven't already, I recommend watching the interactive video on the A570 - it will highlight some of the features I mentioned and is helpful especially if you're not as familiar with the Powershot series.I also purchased the Sanyo Eneloop rechargeable batteries which had good ratings.

I haven't tried the A1000. The image quality of the A590 is very good for a compact camera. The A590 has manual controls, aperture priority, and shutter priority auto settings. I think this is an advantage.

I'm thinking about buying new DSLR.. Nikon D3100 has been on top of the list and competing with Canon T3. Though, what matters to me is picture quality / colors / sharpness. I dont care much about video shooting as I can use my iphone when needed. My question is if anyone of you are professional photographer or has expirence dealing with both cameras.. which one would you buy? both are about at the same price. I need camera which can take nice outdoor pictures and perform better than point n shoot in low light (indoors).

Hi Melinda, This is an A-mount lens. It should work on your a5000 with a proper adapter (A-mount to E-mount). -Anthony

I would go for the middle (B) range and not even interchangeable lens if not worthed. So: apart from price, loving fidelity in colours and proportions (I hate "postcard" photos), and speed, what between:Sony Nex 5NsOlympus E-PM1Panasonic GF3 (if better than G3, otherwise please tell me)?Any non interchangeble lens as worthed as those? (Olympus XZ-1?)Eventually, thanks a loT

No, I can't argue with that and now i see it's down to 119. I'd still probably go with the A570IS for 198 though over this tempting deal. It has the Image Stabilization, upgraded Digic III and you get a 2GB card included for the next week or so which essentially knocks 20 bucks off the price.

I would hold out for the a35, potentially coming out early June. Not sure of the specs, but I think it will have a lot of improvements, including longer battery life.The Nex-5 also uses digital image stabilization as opposed to optical image stabilization, which some people tend to dislike with a passion.
