The editors didn't like

  • The wireless connectivity and apps "ecosystem" implementations are far less than this camera deserves
  • Bottom Line
  • The Sony Alpha NEX-5R is a small interchangeable-lens camera built around a big

  • Including our Editors' Choice
  • The less-expensive Alpha NEX-F3
  • Our touchscreen wasn't as responsive

  • Abstract:  DisplayLike the Nex-F3, the LCD display of the Nex-5R can be flipped up to 180 degrees for shooting self-portraits.One upgrade is that the screen can also be tilted down for overhead shots above the crowd. The could not be done by the Nex-F3.The touchscre...

  • Su agarre ergonómico, capacidad para grabar video en Full HD y velocidad de captura
  • Hay dos botones en la parte trasera en los que no se está indicando su funcionamiento, eso sólo se sabe al encender la pantalla de la cámara
  • Este modelo bien podría ser la segunda cámara de un fotógrafo profesional o una primera opción para los fanáticos de la fotografía que ya tienen conocimientos en la materia y buscan algo más completo, pero con la comodidad de una cámara portátil....

  • Su capacidad para compartir fotos y video gracias a su conexión WiFi y la posibilidad que ofrece de cambiar de posición la pantalla. Es de lentes intercambiables, lo que expande mucho más sus posibilidades
  • Su interfaz es un poco complicada, lo que no la hace del todo amigable con los usuarios inexpertos
  • Si te gustan las cámaras portátiles y sientes que los modelos compactos no cumplen con tus gustos y necesidades debido a que tienen funciones muy simples, esta cámara es el modelo que más se ajusta a tus necesidades....

  • Boîtier compact et bien fini, Écran orientable vers le bas et vers le haut, jusqu'à l'auto-portrait, Bonne gestion du bruit électronique, Connexion Wi-Fi et applications optionnelles
  • Lenteur au démarrage (2,4 s !), Pas de flash intégré (livré dans la boîte), Objectif 18-55 mm de qualité variable, Manque d'intégration des applications optionnelles, interface d'installation médiocre
  • Le Nex-5R est un successeur logique du Nex-5N, avec quelques améliorations ergonomiques et un module Wi-Fi. Las, le système d'applications peine à convaincre et la lenteur au démarrage nous fait préférer le précédent — ou le petit frère, Nex-F3, moins ...

  • Ottime immagini e video, gestione efficace del rumore, WiFi integrato, sensore APSC, accesso rapido ai social network, prestazioni autofocus
  • Manca il mirino, personalizzazione comandi limitata
  • La Sony NEX-5R è un aggiornamento significativo della NEX-5N sia per usabilità sia per personalizzazione. La connettività Wi-Fi e le app Sony rendono questa fotocamera attraente per chi vuole essere sempre connesso e condividere le proprie riprese con sem...
