Use an iPhone screen protector and cut to size ... works for me ...

Why so troublesome? Nex5n uses the same screen protector as previous nex.
 

has any one of u encounted this problem?

Read through this thread... Already heavily discussed...
 

Just got the NEX5N single lens (1855) for 1080 cash price. Includes Sony LCS-EMC carry bag and Sony 8gb. Compared to NEX5, response time and touch screen is a plus! One shortfall of the touchscreen is that it doesn't capture just like what the GF3 does. Hopefully, this will be possible with a firmware update?

Touch focus and shutter at same time, no need to use shutter button.

Oh I see. Maybe just me but I like to press de shutter button. If shoot from screen then its like like handphone camera...u notice dat although it is mirrorless, de camera still make de shutter sound which in normal cameras is actually de sound of de mirror moving up and down.

You are not the only one. I prefer to use the shutter button too instead of touchscreen. Using the touchscreen took the fun out of photography for me.

Touchscreen shooting is good for street shooting;) shutter sound coz there's still a shutter in mirrorless camera
 

just got mine from MScolor yesterday - thanks to some folks here that help made reservations.

the touchscreen is tricky, but the images and auto exposure are very good.

I think you can turn off the touchscreen. But it gives you spot focus and tracking.

Mirror-less, not shutter-less

The NEX 5N has an electronic shutter. Its one of its key new features

Not fully electronics.

Only for 1st curtain, 2nd curtain is still mechanical.
 

Can someone give me a quick education on e-mount. Which brands are using this natively, and for adapters for manual lenses is there focus confirmation?
