Product Details of Sony Alpha NEX-5 Silver Mirrorless Digital Camera Kit w/ 16 mm Lens

Description

The NEX-5 has all picture quality of a DSLR, yet it's about half the size, half the weight and far less complex. Pulling off this minor miracle took some clever innovations in glass, silicon and software code.

Sony Alpha NEX-5 review at Camera Labs

Sony's Alpha NEX-5 is a remarkable camera.
