Pros: Ridiculously low price

Cons: Missing viewfinder

Opinion: Hello everyone, I too have recently owned an old NEX3. I took it, above all, to use it with old vintage lenses since it is a mirrorless (mainly I use a reflex and with old M42 lenses and adapter ring I lose focus indefinitely due to the effect of the draw). Hour... The only way I was able to use them is by setting the camera to "lensless shooting". I deduce that this makes the camera believe that it has no lens mounted therefore the focus point is not needed... here... with the lens mounted and absolutely functional I have no indication of the correct focus (obviously manual). Has it happened to anyone? How did you solve it? Because without the indication of the correct focus it is practically impossible to do it...

Pros: Second-hand price, 14 megapixels, lightness and size.

Cons: Missing viewfinder.

Opinion: I wanted a camera to always carry with me, space-saving, light and cheap. Taken at 120€ with the 18 55 kit I must say that I was surprised, more than enough the 14 megapixels such as af and white balance. Despite "age" it still defends itself well and, with a few clicks on the PC, gives splendid souvenir photos.

Pros: it is at 50 €, better than a compact at an even higher price, shoots manually, compatible with e-mount optics, very light

Cons: battery life, lack of viewfinder, minimum iso 200, few function keys but for what it costs it is all negligible

Opinion: I needed a holiday / battle camera with the family that was compact and light, of those that even if they steal it from you does nothing, that if it flies down the ravine you do the splendid continuing to smile as if nothing had happened. So I started to sift through the point and click including some more advanced solution that shot in raw but the value for money was absurd, the minimum expense for something decent, even if used, was 150/200 € might as well take the a6000 with me. I found the Nex-3 on eBay for 35€ only body, I took it on the fly. It is a mirrorless of 2010 and it makes sense, in my opinion, only if you find it under 50 € and if you already have e-mount optics and batteries because age feels and how. 720p video, iso seal acceptable on 1600 thanks to 14mpx, 14mpx but they also please for the size of the files (a 64gb SD card holds more than 10,000 photos), bad battery life but in the meantime they weigh very little and anyone who has Sony has it, lack of viewfinder but for the price is fine, very few function keys (using it in manual is not trivial) but fortunately I managed to adjust ISO, opening and timing without major problems. It has many pros starting from the weight, it is quite fast, it shoots in raw, the quality of the photos is higher than many compact certainly more expensive and new generation, its shots are higher than those of on medium / high range smartphones, in short, if you find it under € 50, you already have batteries and optics in my opinion it is worth it even after 12 years. If you want to spend something more there are absolutely better choices like the 5100 which is another world than this or the nex-7 and nex-6 that are at absurd prices but under 50 € I do not know if there is better than the Sony Nex-3.

Pros: price of used, size, aesthetics, ease of use, image quality, burst, af good with bright optics, battery that does not discharge even after days of inactivity, good performance up to 1600 ISO, APSC sensor, 14 megapixel , screen, feeling of solidity, focus peaking.

Cons: a few keys and dials, minimum ISO 200, not having it before, 14 megapixel, no crosshairs (if you buy it you know), tortuous menus

Opinion: incredible performance of this small machine that enters everywhere.rni 14 megapixel can be a godsend to have clean image at low ISO, or can be uncomfortable if you tend to crop.rnused all my vintage optics is a pleasure with the focus peakingrnrn was the first ever sony mirrorless, and to date it is better in some respects than the various entry level nikon and canon.rnrnparlo from the owner of sony a6000 and canon 6D.rnvoto 9.

Pros: Light, held at high ISO, dynamic range

Cons: lack viewfinder, the screen with the direct sun is not visible.

Opinion: I mirroless this now from 6 months was my second body, he has now replaced the reflex almost full. It 'very light and small pocket with optics, the sensor is fantastic the 14mpx are fair and return riccha image of color and detail. In raw files can be recovered much of the shadows even more by two stops, the colors are very beautiful has a very wide dynamic range, the autofocus is slow decent but rarely miss a shot, thanks to the focus using manual focus peaking is a pleasure This is an advantage for those using optical vintage. The estate at high iso is good you can get up to 1600 ISO with a fine and pleasant recoverable in post quietly. The battery lasts for about 200 shots if every time you turn it off even more. Now it located at bargain prices I have taken 140 euro with the kit the advice for people who like to travel light and stay without spending a fortune.
