The Sony NEX‑5 is a mirrorless interchangeable‑lens camera that marked one of Sony’s early forays into compact, high‑quality imaging with DSLR‑style performance in a pocketable form. It uses a 23.4 × 15.6 mm APS‑C Exmor CMOS sensor to capture detailed 14.2 megapixel still images and offers a versatile shooting experience with interchangeable lenses via the Sony E‑mount system.

Image Quality & Performance

Thanks to its large APS‑C sensor, the NEX‑5 delivers superior image quality over typical compact cameras, with excellent detail and low‑light performance. It supports a wide ISO range (up to ISO 12800) for flexible shooting in varied conditions. The camera provides RAW + JPEG capture and a variety of creative scene and exposure modes.

Video Capabilities

This camera can record Full HD video (1080i via AVCHD) and HD MP4, letting you capture smooth video with rich detail and audio. It includes Sony’s Sweep Panorama mode and creative effects to expand the fun and flexibility of shooting.

Design & Handling

The NEX‑5’s compact, lightweight body features a tilting 3.0″ TruBlack LCD with ~920,000‑dot resolution that tilts up and down for comfortable shooting from high or low angles. It lacks a built‑in viewfinder but remains easy to hold and use thanks to its minimalist, ergonomic design.

Autofocus & Shooting

A hybrid contrast‑detect autofocus system with ~25 focus points keeps subjects sharp, and continuous shooting modes can capture action sequences at up to 7 fps in speed priority mode. Other features like Anti‑Blur and Hand‑held Twilight help improve low‑light shots.

Lens Compatibility & Expandability

The Sony E‑mount opens up a wide range of native lenses — from compact primes to zooms — while adapters allow use of legacy Sony A‑mount lenses (with various levels of functionality). This makes the NEX‑5 a flexible option for expanding your photographic toolkit.
