It delivers the quality of a DSLR in a camera that’s ready to go wherever you go. In fact, this is the world’s smallest, lightest interchangeable lens digital camera (as of April 2010). It’s roughly half the size and weight of Sony’s smallest, lightest DSLR, the a230. Equipped with an image sensor that’s 13 times the size of the typical compact camera’s sensor, a NEX cameras turn snapshots into photographs. The bigger sensor means images with softer background that make your subject stand out and stunning low-light shots. It also features a 3″ tilt-able LCD, anti-dust function, background defocus control, 720p movie mode, HDMI, USB, Memory Stick Pro Duo and SDHC card slots, and much more.
