Comex NEX 5 price


But I newbie... so thought should save a couple of hundred dollars and buy the cheaper one.
sigh. can't really decide.

Then you really must wait... When Nex5N is selling, Nex5 price will drop, or can snap up some deals from bros selling it at B&S.
 

Actually if u r just newbie like me, better to get nex 5. Every year there will be new model and what u need is most important. I got mine at Cathay photo yesterday s$999. Two lenses and 8 gb Sony hd stick duo, bag and screen protector. Pwp battery at 59 only. Everything is same with show except They don't give photo printer. Show have two color but they have all color. They offer this price for 4 days only

May I know why u choose nex 5 over C3.
 

Nex 5n has faster AF, faster shutter lag (20ms, worlds fastest, beating even pro dslrs, current nex3/5/C3 shutter lag is ard 80-100ms), super quality on high iso (beating 5D2, D700 as claimed by steve huff), new AVCHD 2.0 full hd video 24/60p, capacitive touchscreen (like iphone), better battery life (430shots per charge), longer video recording without overheating, auto lens CA, distortion, vignetting correction, af micro adjustment, better shutter sound.

All these are not found in nex3/5 and C3. And it only cost maybe $100-150 more.

That's quite a good price... they accept card or is it cash only?
I was offered $1k for the above package without the PWP battery $59 last week at Woodland Domestic Electronic but it was cash only.

Not sure about hfmoon but for me, the key factor was the position of the shutter-release button.
IR remote is also a good to have feature.

Oh... is the price of 5N out?

Nex5N is meant to replace Nex5 as what the C3 did to Nex3, so its very obvious Nex5N will follow suit the same launch price of Nex5 when it was available last year.

Twin kit is around RRP $1299. BTW, US is selling at around USD800, so its should be around SGD1100-1200 range.

For info, C3 has AF micro adjustment but agree for those intending to get NEX should wait for de 5N. For those who already have NEX better to go all de way to de 7. If cannot wait, buy a used one first then sell later if u really feel u want a 5N or 7. For me if de 7 is around $1.5k then may upgrade from my C3.
 

For those who cant wait for the local arrival of Nex5n..can try DigitalRev from ebay.Abt $800 for body alone..still have 9sets around when i last check.Takes 2days for delivery according to them..
 

Get the one that suit ur need. Either one can take good picture. U can't really compare them in 4R photo size, unless u r a pixal peeper?

Keep ur mInd clear, dun get poison!!

nex 5 feels more solid and better handgrip.

OT: sometimes, it can be the other way around.. the girls picks the guy... it would have been nice for a change.. and we shouldnt use man-wife as example... some culture/race allows more than one wife (legally too).. am sure some people has more than one camera/etc but that doesnt mean anything..

OT: There's recently a documentary on tranny a few weeks back.. its an eye opener show into their world... try to understand from their view and what they have to go thru.. some didnt ask for it. Anyway, who am i to judge/comment/etc.. acceptance... tolerance... understanding... then perhaps less fight and wars..
 

OT: am not a tranny! ;(
