Sony Nex 3 – The new Generation of DSLR Camera
With the launch of Sony’s Nex series of cameras, Sony has made it easy for the casual point and shoot picture taker to enter the world of professional quality photographs. The Sony Nex-3, like the Nex-5, is a Digital Single Lens Reflex Camera – DSLR. When cameras entered the digital era several years ago, one of the greatest advantages for the casual user was the huge reduction in camera size. Cameras could finally fit in a pocket or purse, and sales increased dramatically.
The downside to digital point and shoot cameras (as they became known) is that while simple to use, they don’t provide the features that produce really high quality photos. Lenses are fixed and high speed frames per second and video features, while adequate, don’t begin to approximate the stunning quality of a professional DSLR camera.
The Nex 3 takes the user into the domain of the professional. With easy to understand on screen instructions, multiple lens options, and the sensors and features of a single lens reflex camera, the possibilities are endless. Sony has even developed a series of instructional videos on Youtube:
The Nex -3 is truly the smallest interchangeable lens camera in the world. While this opens up Sony’s inventory of lenses, by choosing the appropriate adapter other brands of lens can also be affixed to the NEX camera series.
The panoramic lens, 14.2 megapixel resolution, and live view 3” LCD all ensure clarity and level of detail suitable for enlargements and professional quality framed images. If a video is what you want, the HD video in MP4 format provides vivid lifelike images in both HD or standard format.
The Sony Nex 3 is definitely the next generation camera for the casual user and professional alike.
