Pros: Low price, excellent sensor, lens with manual zoom, viewfinder presence, great photos and video. Possibility of manual focus.

Cons: Viewfinder with not excellent quality, to iso 3200 becomes visible noise.

Opinion: I bought a3000 with 18-55 in kit at a store like last piece unsold, being out of production the price has been instrumental in the choice. The first thing I checked was the viewfinder, indeed small, but worse than I thought, reading the reviews. Autofocus did not seem so slow, as you read. I prefer to prehensility traditional nex. excellent photo quality and video, will amaze you. The choice for the possibility of using Zeiss optics, although a little 'care, with excellent quality for sharpness and three-dimensionality. The council, if they are of good in used at attractive prices 300/250 €. The photos below speak for themselves.

Pros: Compact and lightweight, excellent photo quality, easy to use and manage, a few buttons, but very practical, and not least, real movies as it should.

Cons: The viewfinder, which frankly could be better, and the AF, which is certainly not that of a good SLR, but then, I see no other obvious flaws.

Opinion: After 35 years of "Nikonismo," I'm tired of having to go out every time with a bag rather cumbersome and over 3kili and a half in weight. I decided to sell everything, and I started looking for something more 'handy, light, type mirrorless, to be clear I was also willing to accept a lower quality camera, just to have a layette that was almost "pocket", or just more '. Wandering through malls, I came across this model was on offer, less than 400 Euros all the kit, including: Body + 18-55mm stabilized, + 55-210, well stabilized, + a 16gb sd card, + his bag which contained the original Sony all !!. I ran home to look a bit 'of information on the net, and after an hour I was at the mall to pick !. What can I say, I have not deteriorated in quality, indeed !!!, piu'economico Although clearly the model of the house and now also already out of production, they have been so pleasantly impressed, not avrei I never thought possible. I, who for so many only saw Nikon, I had to accept the fact, that other, not to be outdone, and indeed, for certain things, can do even better, and "weigh three times less," Kg. 1, 2 including the stock exchange, it is always a pleasure to carry it behind.

Pros: image quality, ease of use, good ergonomics, price

Cons: viewfinder display, responsiveness

Opinion: I will be concise: the sensor is great as the price. Just as soon as the light drops to focus on the display and even worse in the viewfinder it becomes difficult even if the photo could potentially be very valid. If in fact we consider that this is an entry level just for those who are not so practical that I would say is a product designed very poorly. That is the paradox is that those wishing to try the excellent sensor Sony having already good experience, something good we quarry, while for those who are starting out is hard. The autofocus of course for this price is still old design contrasting but now we go to phase detection. I have replaced it with the sony a6000 with which I am now very well. I think when it will be replaced by the A3100 or do not know what the name, simply by improving the display the concept of this camera will take effect. Until then better stay away ...

Pros: SLR-like body, lightness, quality sensor, AF, price, compatibility with a fleet large enough optical

Cons: Quality of the viewfinder and display

Opinion: I bought this car for my wife. The value for the price I thought it was great. In fact, in a mirrorless body from entry-level SLR, light, comfortable. The price paid for less than 300 Euros is supplied in a kit with the 18-55mm lens of the Nex and is compatible with all E-Mount lenses attack. In favor also the presence of an electronic viewfinder, although of modest quality, in addition to the rear display risolutissimo but not of acceptable quality. The highlight is the good APS-C 20-megapixel which produces good quality images with low noise and good dynamic range. In practice, a body a little 'cheap that can churn out great photos, however, I was able to test it with optics that I use with my Sony A7, including the excellent Zeiss 55mm f/1.8, the results are really good. At high ISO is sfruttabilissima up to ISO 3200, ISO 6400 is still acceptable for prints size contained. rnL'AF contrast behaves quite well in most situazioni.rnDa report also presenza focus-peaking and magnification for possible use with manual lenses adapted by ring.
