Comments about Sony Sony (alpha) NEX-3 14.2 Megapixels Compact Interchangeable Lens Digital Camera with 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 OSS E-mount Lens, Black:

Bought this to take photos of my wife's quilts and to do plant photography. Shot four parties trying it out under varying light conditions.

Do check the firmware and update as necessary. Do read the manual, use it, and then read it again. Different beast than a 30 year old SLR.

Tiltable LCD is great for high and low shots, especially with my no-line bifocals.

Reasonable software until I know what I want (Coming back into photography after the darkroom enlarger and chemical era).

Comments about Sony Sony (alpha) NEX-3 14.2 Megapixels Compact Interchangeable Lens Digital Camera with 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 OSS E-mount Lens, Black:

I was most impressed with the image quality with both lenses. The files converted to really great 11x14 prints on my Epson R2400. Color is great and resolution is outstanding. I coul see individual bricks on distant buildings . THe only thing I wish was better was the sound of the shutter. For such a tiny camera, it makes a loud clunk when fired.
