The editors didn't like

  • Expensive
  • User interface can be overwhelming
  • Menu system still needs work
  • Redeye a problem
  • No removal tool available
  • Sensor is a a magnet for dust (just like the NEX5)
  • Proprietary hot shoe (unless you buy a pricey accessory)
  • Builtin flash cannot act as a wireless master
  • Full manual on CDROM
  • Quality of manuals is not good
  • While the small electronic viewfinder is better than most we've tried
  • It will still make you miss an optical viewfinder
  • Inferior kit lens
  • You still need to go into menus to change modes
  • Annoying file structure for video and stills
  • Slightly confusing menu interface
  • Small high quality lens library
  • So-so kit lens. Proprietary hot shoe. Not as good at high ISO as other NEX cameras. Easy to start recording video unintentionally
  • Cost
  • Awkward playback regimen
  • Monitor/viewfinder interface can impact battery life
  • Software menu is a bit of a dog's breakfast. Flimsy popup flash. At least 0 too expensive
  • Still doesn't have DSLR-level manual control
  • OLED viewfinder is mediocre
  • Lens ecosystem isn't as good as Nikon or Canon
  • GUI has a definite learning curve
  • No built-in IS
  • Requires lens with OIS
  • Control placement
  • Lowlight autofocus
  • Slower AF than some CSC competitors
  • Limited battery life
  • Expensive for a mirrorless camera
  • Bracketing limited to +/-0.3 or +/-0.7EV
  • Poor menu layout and organisation
  • Movie button easy to accidentally press
  • AF struggles in poor light
  • Limited selection of native E-mount lenses.

  • Output from the 24 MP sensor is terrific. High ISO shots are very usable, AF generally fast, shutter lag is practically nonexistent, Form factor, TriNavi knobs and overall build quality are topnotch, Video quality is excellent. I like the autofocus and de

  • Extremely high resolution (24.3MP), Bestinclass OLED viewfinder, Innovative TriNavi controls, Full HD 50p and 25p video recording, Great shutter responsiveness
  • ISO 3,200 and beyond unsuitable for large prints
  • We’ve had a smashing time using the NEX-7. The body is solidly constructed, the handling is great, the OLED viewfinder is gorgeous, the responsiveness is impressive, and the list goes on. It’s an awesome camera for both professional work and for play: ...

  • Puedes hacer fotografías muy rápido tanto por el sensor como por los controles personalizables. Tiene muy buena calidad, que te permite imprimir fotografías en tamaño carta sin sacrificar detalles
  • Viendo la foto impresa los colores no son tan contrastados, pero con ayuda de un programa de edición puedes hacerlas a tu gusto. Comprar lentes por separado puede resultar en una gran inversión pero, sin duda, vale la pena
  • Recomendamos esta cámara digital a quienes buscan el respaldo de una profesional. Es ideal para llevar a todos lados y hacer fotografías que requieran cierto nivel de calidad. Definitivamente, debes de saber de fotografía y controles manuales, de lo co...

  • Abstract:  Una de las cámaras más deseadas, si no la que más, de este 2012 es la Sony NEX 7 . De hecho fue la ganadora como mejor cámara compacta/sin espejo en los pasados Premios Xataka 2011 . Así que ponerle las manos encima durante un tiempo para analizarla es lo...

  • Superbe EVF / molettes / flash intégré, Gestion ISO OK / qualité d'image, Obturateur hybride / écran orientable, HDR / panoramique / vidéo / rafale
  • Prix exorbitant non justifié, Capteur 24,3 MPix mal venu sur ce boîtier, Zoom 18-55 mm limité avec ce capteur, Encombrement avec bague + objectif A
  • Le NEX-7 a beau demeurer un bon appareil, nous avons du mal à cacher notre déception. Déjà, pourquoi lui avoir collé un capteur de 24,3 MPix ? Autant sur un reflex ciblé studio, auquel on va greffer de gros objectifs pro, une pareille définition se compre...

  • Le prix élevé de ce NEX-7 est amplement justifié : outre le viseur électronique intégré de grande qualité – un accessoire onéreux chez la concurrence – l'appareil haut de gamme de Sony intègre tout ce qui fait le succès des autres Nex en améliorant à la f...

  • Le Sony NEX-7 est un appareil exceptionnel à plus d’un titre, à commencer par son prix. 1350 euros avec un objectif 18-55mm, ça fait mal au portefeuille. On a l’habitude de dire qu’en achetant Sony, on paye surtout pour la marque. Mais en l’occurrence,...
