Its a very good camera, and the new autofocus is noticeably faster than the AF system on previous NEX cameras. But its changed the price situation on the whole NEX series—last years NEX-5N with a lens now costs just $500. And, the excellent NEX-F3 is o...
Abstract: The Sony NEX-5R is a tiny camera. It's just a sensor with a grip and lens mount with a flipping LCD on the back. Once you add a lens and flash or finder, it gets much bigger as shown; the camera itself......
Flip out screen, selftimer function, top plate scroll dial, top plate function button, image quality
Small touch screen buttons, unintuitive menu system, lack of mode dial, lack of builtin flash
Though the NEX-5R is a completely new Sony CSC it must be said that it doesn't offer a vast amount more than what we've seen before in the NEX-5N. It handles very similarly in the hand and other than providing the options to transfer images directly t...

Sony Alpha NEX-5R delivers excellent photo quality, even in dimmer light, and provides more physical controls than some of its predecessors for a more streamlined shooting design
The wireless connectivity and apps "ecosystem" implementations are far less than this camera deserves
It's a great camera choice for high-quality stills and a streamlined shooting design under $800, but the Sony Alpha NEX-5R falls short when it comes to sharing your shots online....
Superb image quality; one of the most compact cameras to shoehorn in a DSLR-sized sensor; option of using touch screen for operation in tandem with physical controls; new wireless connectivity option for use with smartphones and tablets
Pricey; design a tad bland and adding the lens makes for an unbalanced appearance; won't fit in a pocket unless carrying lens and body separately, $799 (body); $999 (16-50mm lens); $1299 (16-50mm & 55-210mm lenses)
Abstract: DateNovember 28, 2012 Read later : $1000 with 16mm-50mm lens This 16-megapixel compact system camera is the latest development of Sony's NEX range. The overall design has been refined to improve the aesthetic balance of body and lens. When t...
