NEX-5N: picture of it

I am newly attached to one beautiful and petite individual... what more with it's shine under the light. It makes my finger dance on it..

Okay, below are the shots of what I had bagged last week.











Love the way this camera allows me to hang it on my finger. The feel of an DSLR I am owning, but in mini size. It makes me feel at home.

On using the camera, I discovered it kept focusing even though my finger is off the shutter button. So I go guessing the reason. First thought, was it a defect? So I went to the screen and start searching the menu and do some settings. Still it kept focusing whenever I move the camera to different objects with different distance. My mind went racing around for others possible cause. On discussing the matter with friends, they gave me the idea with their questions. Maybe it is meant to shorten the time in capturing the scene. So... this must be the reason, more to console me self.

I was surprised when the first day of playing with the camera. The shutter is loud. It feels like what the DSLR did, ka-chunk. On multiple shot, I thought I was shooting with a machine gun with silencer. Anyway, I got myself used to it. This also mean that I am no longer can be stealthy in the public.

One of the bundle item, the flash unit. I have not till today used it on the camera. Never thought I will want to use it. My reason is that the camera can produce shots good enough for me on higher ISO.

This is a replacement for my earlier S90, which was sold. But it seems the two are of different group. What triggered me to look at NEX-5N is the versatility of NEX-5 which a friend of mine is using. The size and the capabilities are amazing to me. Light weight is a bonus. And more importantly I had a budget. Now with this purchase the accounting book went haywire. And thanks to the articles over the net, which has gave this camera a it's own light, which led me to it.

With the ability to change lens, I am looking forward for new lens or any third party with E-mount. My future addition will be a zoom 55-210mm and a fast prime lens at 35mm. As current I am also shooting with Canon 1000D via 50mm f1.4, which has intrigue me with no ends.

The camera bag that came free with the camera on purchase, fit nicely when using the camera with 18-55mm lens. When the camera fit with the 16mm, it is loose. Anyway this is the only bag I can rely on at this moment. I am my the way to complete my own creation, that will fit the camera with 16mm on it (will share the photos on it once it is completed).

I would like to say more, but the news has covered most of it.

Lastly, I am wondering why I was so eager to had one of this NEX-5N after knowing that is was going to have a click noise on video shooting. Still wondering....

Photos above was shot with HTC Desire HD.
