Overall, the Sony NEX-3NL/B is a great tool for a wide cross section of photographers. Those moving up on the photographic food chain from a complete point-and-shoot environment should quickly learn to enjoy the benefits of the increased control that comes from a DSLR-like interchangeable lens. While experienced DSLR shooters may feel handcuffed by some of features that are absent in this camera, they will not be disappointed by the resolution, clarity and tonal qualities of the images this camera's sensor delivers (and they will like the reduced mass of its compact body and lens).PROs:-Many still image shooting modes (multiple fully automatic or scene-sensing modes, aperture priority, shutter priority, panorama), including manual.-up to 16 megapixel still image resolution-up to 1920x1080 high definition video resolution (up to 29 minutes continuous HD or 2 GB of .mp4 video)-easy manual flash activation-easy video recording activation-"Wasabi" battery is compatible with many other Sony cameras (including it's big brother, the NEX-7-Accepts both Sony Memory Sticks and SD memory cardsCONs (note: not one of these is major flaw, and even collectively, they are not a deal-breaker in any way. They are, however, separate a product of this price from a five-star review):-No hardware mode controls on the camera body; all settings (including shooting modes) are through a a menu button and must be viewed and changed through the camera's LCD-No camera-body control for no flash shooting; this too must be accessed through the menu and LED screen.-No included software; you have to download from Sony-If you do: Sony-published software is of marginal utility. If you want to shoot RAW images, you'll have to consider Sony's "Image Data Converter" software. But unless you are brand new to photo/video importing, organizing and editing: take a pass on the other download, Sony's "PlayMemories" studio. It's overly complicated, with a cluttered non-intuitive. Note for Windows 7 users: Window Media Player will playback this camera's .mts" format HD video format and Windows Live Movie Maker will accept MTS files for editing and conversion to .wmv files.-Monochrome user guide with small print (hint: download the .pdf version and send it to your Kindle!)-No external battery charger (but Sony will be gladly sell you one separately). If you go with only what arrives in the box, you'll charge your NEX-3 via a USB cable and an computer or AC adapter. Non-Sony branded "compatible" Wasabi batteries and chargers are available at significantly lower prices: choose an off-brand at your own risk!This camera is lightweight, compact and has the flexibility for additional performance by accepting interchangeable lenses. Good camera overall.Note for Windows users: If you want to manage the contents of your SD card via a USB connection, make sure to change the USB settings on the camera to the "mass storage"; otherwise you won't be able to delete content on the memory card.

This camera is capable of producing really nice photos.Pros: easy to use, good value, nice results using the camera's auto modes, see other reviews on the rest of the pros.Cons:1) not made to be easily used in manual mode (but, then again, if you are looking at this to use in manual mode, you are looking at the wrong model. Try one of Sony's more expensive NEX models. Same deal if its missing other features, such as an accessory shoe, a pc sync outlet, etc. that you might want. This is designed as an entry level, low priced camera.). Once you get used to the camera, you can exert a fair amount of control over the auto setting by metering off of selected things in the scene and locking the exposure before fully pressing the shutter.2) the battery does not hold a charge well when not used (it will run really low within 4-6 weeks of not being used). I haven't had issues with battery life when actually shooting with it. I mention it running low because it's let me down on a couple occasions when I needed to grab it and go, only to find 8% or less battery life left in it.3) It's probably just me but I have not found an easy way to get the photos completely off the camera using the software provided. I have to download the photos, then format the memory card in the camera to remove the photos from the camera. Annoying.4) I wish to camera was a little smaller. Anyone that says this camera is "pocketable" is either not using the zoom lens or has really big cargo pockets. I'd like it smaller to better fit in my palm, be less noticeable for street photography, and to make it easier to handle. That said, I have large hands and the controls, etc. on the camera are easy to use.Overall, nice camera for the money. I own a couple DSLRs and bought this, on a tight budget, as a carry around camera. No regrets.

My main DSLR camera is with the Canon EOS line, but I'm not locked into the brand other than to say that I've liked the performance of my DSLR thus far. When comparing other non-point-and-shoot cameras, this is generally the standard by which I judge.The Sony NEX wins the size battle right off the bat. This unit is tiny, without the lens it could easily be in the same class as a pocket-sized point-and-shoot camera. The lens itself is reminiscent of a "pancake" style, very small footprint (for lenses anyway), very solid feel. Right off the bat, the small form factor came with some downsides for me - I don't really think of myself has having either large or small hands, but the NEX felt "unstable". The camera is very front-heavy, but unlike with full sized DSLRs, there's not much "grab" room. I also found myself accidentally hitting the zoom controls on the lens without meaning to. I'm sure this will probably go away with extended use, but off the bat, it was a bit annoying.The screen controls were also less than intuitive in my opinion. While all of the settings (I went straight to Manual mode) were displayed boldly on the well-lit LED display, the act of changing those settings was a bit more complicated. I did actually have to break out the manual a few times. ISO, "shot type," and exposure timings are easily modified, but the rest are buried in sub-menu's.Most of these issues will probably go away with extended use and growing familiarity with the product. Having taken shots in bright day light, indoor light, night situations, I can find no real flaw with the picture quality. Video is also decent quality but the lack of an accessory port and the fact that the microphone ports are right in the way of your fingers, well lets just say that audio probably isn't going to be stellar. The inclusion of a flash is touted in their product description, but the lack of a hotshoe mount seems silly. Also why is there no battery charger? Why do the manufacturers these days feel the need for us to plug in the camera directly into the wall? Not only that, but the USB cable included is short as heck (2ft or so).All-in-all, the NEX 3NL/B seems like a camera in limbo. It's higher grade than what you'd find in a point-and-shoot, but missing several key features to be considered even an entry-level DSLR. It's like a strange consumer-pro hybrid with a mishmash of features that really don't fit anyone's criteria. What it does, it does well. But what it's missing can't be improved later on. This locks the camera into a very static configuration. Quite simply, it has no room to grow.

I've been wanting to get a new camera for awhile since my p&s camera is about to die. Started looking at dslr cameras before Christmas and was deciding between the Canon 3t and the t3i. I saw the Sony NEX-3N on the lightning deal so decided to research it. Spent the day looking at reviews, videos, etc...decided to give it a try. I liked that it was the perfect middle ground between the light weight point & shoot and the heavy dslr. I'm not a professional photographer and only wanted a camera I can take to my kids sporting events, vacations, etc...I have to say I'm extremely happy with my decision so far! I love that it isn't so heavy and I can switch out the lenses. I have friends with dslr cameras and they hardly ever take them anywhere due to not wanting to lug it around, they end up just using their cell phone cameras while their expensive camera sits at home. This past weekend I popped this camera into my purse and took about 50 pictures at my son's basketball game. Got some wonderful action shots! I ordered a 32gb memory card when I ordered the camera since it doesn't come with a memory card.My only complaint which are super small is that the lens cap isn't attached to the camera so I'm sure it's only a matter of time before I lose it & the neck strap isn't very comfy to wear for an extended period of time so I ordered a neoprene one.Down the road I will probably look at the N5, 6 or 7 since I like some of the additional features they have but for now the NEX-3N fits my needs. I've already ordered the Sony E 55-210mm F4.5-6.3 OSS Lens and can't wait to try it out. Happy with my purchase and very glad I dragged my feet on the dslr purchase.

I've used higher-end small P&S cameras such as the Canon S100, as well as bridge cameras such as the Sony HX300. The Sony NEX is the next step when you're not ready for a large DSLR or just plain don't want one.But is it really worth the extra money? If you're looking for a camera with large sensor, yes, by all means. The sensor on this is huge compared to 99.9% of the point & shoot cameras on the market. But I compare photos taken with the NEX and photos from my other Sony cameras, all cheaper and smaller than the NEX. On a lot of the photos I've shot, unless I greatly enlarge them, I don't see much difference. I'm not a pixel-peeper though. Maybe you are.I know how to use full manual cameras (PASM) so that wasn't something new with the NEX; though there is a learning curve if you're new to changing out lenses and knowing the correct lens for the situation. At the same time, you can use this as a fully automatic P&S camera....just keep the kit lens attached and leave it in either of the 2 auto modes and you will still get good photos (the APS-C sensor is the 2nd largest available in any digital camera).The menu is intuitive and much like other Sony cameras, but more choices. My other Sony cameras have 921,000 pixel screens, this has only a 460,000 pixel screen; I can't tell much difference when using the menu, but sometimes see a difference between photo quality on the LCD looking much better when uploaded to the computer.LIKES:>> Sony hasn't gone crazy with megapixels...16 MP is enough.>> I have the white camera and it's beautiful, with a slight metallic finish.>> Battery life is excellent. Buy a separate battery charger because I don't think it's good for the camera's electronics to charge a battery inside the camera.>> I love the way they made the flash so you can aim it at a different point such as the ceiling instead of the subject to "bounce" the light off the subject.>> Focuses fast. Even on the single photo setting, you can hold the shutter down and it will take one photo after another just like a DSLR.DISLIKES:>> The kit lens is not so great for close-up macro shots; you have to back off the subject to get proper focus.>> When zooming while shooting a video, the lens motor is VERY noisy and can be heard when playing the video.

First, I highly recommend this camera for someone who likes Auto, I-Auto, or Superior Auto, or any of those automatic modes. Sony does a good job in those modes. Sony's stitch panorama is the best of any maker. Fuji is a close second.I wouldn't recommend this (or any NEX) to someone who likes to shoot in Aperture Priority or likes to customize their camera. Here's why:1. Sony's NEX menus are terrible - Seriously. You have to get to root level to get into any sub menu, and it's easy to forget which items are in which root menus. Nobody should make menus like Sony.2. Customization isn't consistent - If you change the functions of the control dial buttons, your custom settings revert in other modes. In real life experience, this means it's very easy for the NEX to provide an inconsistent and confusing experience. keep in mind this only happens in Aperture, Shutter, or Program mode. So if you shoot in Auto, or I-Auto, or S-Auto, then it's not a problem.Sony's AF used to be notorious for missing the correct subject. For example, the NEX-6 would often pick trees in the background than people in the foreground even when people covered 60% of the frame. But Sony seems to be getting people. Most people shooting in Auto would just take another picture in the hopes that NEX-3N would get it right.Being so affordable, I recommend the NEX-3N to anyone who shoots in Auto. For people who like to customize their camera, the NEX-3N would most likely find it frustrating.

I don't like big things. Being a techie I have this "the smaller the better" attitude.I had lots of point-and-shoots in my life. Each time I had to get one I spent so much time trying to find the dream camera - the smallest one with the best picture quality.Unfortunately, it appears that the size of the sensor still matters. The bigger sensor will get you better picture. So, I came to this camera, as it is the smallest camera with the biggest sensor.What's more unfortunate is that this camera is the cheapest of the "big sensor" interchangeable lens world. Thus, the sensor is pretty much all that you get for your money. (...well, not quiet, the lens that comes with it costs $300 if purchased separately)There is a huge list of what you won't get, compared to a P&S twice as cheap as this one:- Zoom. It doesn't advertise it anywhere but SELP1650 lens that comes with it is just 3x zoom, so if you got used to 46x zoom in your cheap FinePix - there is no luck for you here. 46x zoom means focal lengths 24 - 1104mm (35mm eq) and the best you can find in SLR world would be something like 109-465mm (35mm eq) and that would cost you additional $500 minimum.- Time lapse. It's impossible to do time lapse with Nex-3n. You would need its more advanced sibling like Nex-5N. But it doesn't have built-in flash, so you need Nex-6. But it's almost 2 times as expensive than Nex-3N. Uh-oh.- Display. As some other reviewer mentioned Nex-3N display is a step down compared to Nex-3. And it's not because of the resolution, it because it doesn't tilt down any more, so you can't take pictures while raising your camera above the crowd.- Controls. P&S are super user friendly, so you'll be shocked by the number of clicks you would need to make just to change the focus mode. And most times you need to change focus mode you need it really fast, but that's just not the case here.- Internal memory. There is none, plain zero.- Charger. You won't get it, since camera is your charger. Needless to say that Nex-3n is not functional while charging, and it can't be accessed from a computer while being charged.The list can be continued.But in the end, if picture quality is more important to you than all these features, you need a small camera and you're not ready to spend $xxxx - this camera is you.

I'm a bit new to photography as more than point and shoot, so I did a lot of research before buying a camera--I wanted one that would scale to me as I learned new things, and this I think is the ticket.I borrowed my older brother's NEX-5 (previous generation) before buying, and absolutely loved it, and once I had one, I started noticing professional photographers with NEX cameras as their "light duty" cameras. At a wedding, I talked to one of the photographers about it and he was saying that when he wasn't "fully geared out" (i.e. on a job that he had prep time for), a NEX-3 was his choice because it was light, portable, takes good quality photos, doesn't suffer much for options, and if something should happen to it, compared to his other equipment, it is very much replaceable.In short: This is a really solid camera that won't break the bank.In practice, the NEX-3 has lived up to that. Without thinking, if I snap a photo, it'll take a very good picture. If I have a moment, I can check the Camera's built in tips (!) and modify some of the defaults for the type of photo I'm taking, and get a *great* picture. If I know what I want to do (change the warmth, brightness, ISO setting, etc) I can do that too.I will agree with other reviewers that the Click wheel can be clunky, but it really hasn't bothered me that much in normal use. You might be able to do better if you're willing to drop another $300, but I think in this price range, this is a great choice.

I am no camera expert, which is why I was drawn to the ease and portability of a small DSLR. Overall this is a great looking camera that takes great shots. The only trouble is that 95% of those shots are out of focus because the autofocus has somehow honed in on something in the background, something in the foreground, or something that -- whatever the case may be -- was not what I was aiming for. Such focus troubles have rendered this high-quality, long battery-life lasting, portable camera to the junk heap.I've dabbled in the manual focus as well, and despite my best efforts, can't divine a way in which the manual focus won't auto-zoom to 10x magnification so that I can uber focus on a subject -- enough that I can't tell what it is I'm looking at in the display.In short, if you can figure out the focus, please let me know. If you can't or don't think you can, then buy something else.Incidentally, we have been incredibly happy with the Sony Cybershot. Great pictures (in focus!), durable, and fits in your pocket.

Sony surely went through painstaking effort to make the camera case as thin as possible, but then they have this massive lens housing protrusion (more than an inch) coming off the front of the camera. You really can't fit this in your pants/shorts pocket. Sure a jacket pocket will do, but what do you do in the spring/summer?Also, the lens is clearly oversized for this thing - if you look at the foreoptic of the kit lens, it is only about half of the lens housing width. They had to make the lens width so high in case they need to accomodate some f1.4 50mm or something like that, but the target audience doesn't particularly want this feature. Just seems like they could have made this a little smarter.The flash is super dinky and feels as if it would break if you accidentally lightly brushed it against something.Still giving it 4 stars as the camera performs very well. It's a bit overpriced. The kit lens really is the limiting factor in image quality for it - if you were to get this, definitely want to budget for a prime. but then, if you knew enough about digicams to know what a prime lens means, you probably wouldn't get this camera anyway. puzzling market segment. i eventually returned it...

I think cameras are like lingerie--what is fits great for some doesn't for others, so others might completely disagree with me. There is a little bit of a learning curve on this camera as far as settings go, but it's alright once you get the hang of it. While the Sony takes nice pictures, I am incredibly disappointed at the lack of a true Macro capability. With some tweeking, one can get pictures in Macro that are acceptable, but I find the Sony, in spite of many other quite nice features for this type of camera, very lacking in the Macro arena. Frankly, I've a point and shoot that does a far superior job in Macro. I wanted a smaller camera than my big Nikon D60 for added convenience, but I find because of the Sony's lackluster macro abilities, I'm back to lugging my big Nikon around more often than I would like just so I can obtain better Macro performance.

I bought this as a backup to my Canon 60D so that I could just shoot a quick photo without worrying about messing with settings, etc. on my 60D. It just arrived yesterday and all I can say is the Canon might stay in the bag for many of my planned trips. Only a couple of features I wish this camera had are an optical viewfinder and faster charge time on the battery. When the camera arrived the battery was completely dead. I put it on charge and it took most of the night to get it fully up to speed. The menus are quite easy to navigate through and the photos are unbelievable with the C sensor. I think they match my 60D in quality. I love the intelligent auto setting and can't see any reason not to use it for most situations, even though the camera offers many of the traditional settings that a full DSLR camera does. I also ordered the 32GG Sony card that is suggested in the final checkout. I ordered the Westlinke Protective Black PU Leather Camera Case Bag for Sony NEX-3N with Short Prime Lens 16-50MM and will give it a review after it arrives.

The price for this camera with the 16-50 was just too good to pass up. 300.00 was such a deal. I use this for concerts as usually can take it in as a point and shoot. The large sensor is perfect for no flash pictures. The build is great but no magnesium or metal body but still super solid.What are the negatives? There are very little to no customization for the camera. You have to pick menu options as they are and that'a about it. But there are some really great ones in there. The superior auto is one that takes a lot of guess work and either takes multiple high speed shots(3) and makes one great shot with them. Panorama is another. Just no adjustment for sharpness or things like saturation etc. But again for the price you receive extreme capable camera photo quality wise at an unheard of price and for many they do not want to tweek the camera anyway.

Certainly, this is not a two star camera but I am considering the competition too.This is simply a toy comparing to e.g. E-PM2 which is a way more serious camera with more capabilities and usability including much better kit lens.Heck, the flash on this thing is at least 3x weaker and cannot even light up a small room at shutter speed ~1/50 and ISO100 at its maximum output. Kids running arround at some party? This flash won't get them without ISO800.Funny things is that the image doesn't fill the LCD even in 16:9 mode. It's actually smaller than in 3:2 mode. That pretty much tells you how "serious" the developers of this camera were.As as 2nd camera, it will do because of the excellent video. Olympus fails there. But having this as your first camera and skipping buying a way better product for the same money is just wrong. You'll get a good sensor (not much better than the latest from olympus) but just nothing is there to support that sensor.

I've been using Canon equipment so far as an amateur photographer. This is my 1st Sony and we are in a good relationship so far. Quality and compatibility are just great, being able to save RAW and interchangeable lens are killer features.Small details: camera grip is good for one hand usage, and is not too heavy.- it also has a grid with diagonal lines besides standards grids on screen.- it has no real dial/selector, but after a while you get used to it , and save space on camera.I do recommend buying a camera case, since it has a big LCD you might want avoid scratches on it.I've used it with a generic lens adapter for Alpha lens, but it loses automatic features as auto-focus. Besides that quality is really great.

THE GOOD: The NEX 3N is said to be the world's smallest camera based on the APS-C sensor, which is the second-largest sensor (about 16mm by 24mm) commonly found in mass-market cameras. The result is fine photo quality in a small package, with good high-ISO performance. Moreover, the 16-50mm e-mount kit lens is optically decent, and retracts to semi-pancake dimensions when the camera is off. So you get true DSLR-like performance in a box that approaches pocket size -- and is indeed pocket-ish size when paired with one of Sony's true pancake lenses, such as the new and nice and very expensive 20mm e-mount.THE BAD: The 3N handles slowly thanks to so many functions and settings being based in menus rather than in manual controls; a settings-control wheel that's small, jumpy and hard to handle; slowish focusing, and the 16-50mm kit lens, which telescopes at a leisurely rate. Worse, the 3N lacks some of the settings that we take for granted today in any capable camera, such as the ability to customize the parameters of the auto-ISO function or even to control the volume of the focusing beep.THE UGLY: In a fit of the Cheaps and/or the Dumbs, Sony decided not to include a battery charger with this camera. Apparently, they've made the same annoying move with the NEX 6, which is the $1,000 big brother of the 3N. But that's OK, says Sony, because owners can charge the battery inside the camera -- using a tiny cable that the company did include in the kit. (I haven't encountered this very bad in-camera-charging idea since I bought a Canon G1 in 2001.) Sure, Sony, this is just what I want to do on my vacation: sit in a hotel room watching my camera charge my spare battery. Of course, a Sony website will happily sell you the company's very own (and very good) NEX-class charger for $55 plus tax (at other websites it costs more like $40, if you can find it). I would much have preferred a higher 3N kit price -- with the furshlugginer charger included.

bought "refurbished" for $350 six months ago. Now it quit and I have no recourse (merchant covers only 3 months). I recently discovered the issue is common with this unit: "cannot recognize lens." 4 lessons: 1. buying "refurbished" is risky. 2. On-line customer service is poor. Return policies are weak. Warranty may be invalid. 3. seriously consider buying electronics at a local store -- tradeoff of higher price better customer service. 4. Do your research! Identify systemic problems -- like this unit's engineering flaws. FYI -- even those with warranties are being denied coverage under pretense of mishandling. Buyer beware!

I purchased this camera a month ago. It suddenly stopped working stating a "lens compatibility error". I contacted Sony and receive the generic response - to send it in and it will be replaced or repaired under the 1 year warranty. GOOGLE THIS ISSUE. Almost every E-Mount camera made by Sony is experiencing this issue. Many people say they sent it to Sony and were told it was bumped and they they need to pay the cost of repair or replacement of a new lens.I had an Olympus Pen and never had any issues. I dropped it, bumped it, etc. I would suggest you purchase one of those instead. I'm pissed because I wasted $400 + and could have gotten any other camera! This camera model and others is defective and Sony won't take responsibility.

I enjoy photography as a hobby, and have the usual big Nikon Film camera in a drawer with all my expensive lenses. Digital has been a boon, and I have had quite a parade of hobby level camera (Nikon, Panasonic, Canon, etc) over the years. The problem with all is the lack of a good sensor for low level lighting, like in a gym. I had been reading all the Sony reviews for quite a while and finally pounced with the price dropped for the Nex-3.That was a good decision, best that I have had so far and a great sensor considering the price. The only irritation was Amazon not including a smart card with the camera. So far, so good (at least for a hobbyist).

I did a ton of research on the new mirror-less cameras - my daughter wanted one for Christmas. She had actually been interested in the Nikon-1 in white and had added it to her wish list, but Santa did his own research.I first looked at the Nikon 1 specs and was surprised to see it uses a much smaller CX sensor (116 sq-mm) - smaller than just about any other interchangeable lens mirror-less camera on the market. The Sony NEX-3N on the other hand uses an APS-C size sensor which is about 3 times (300%) larger - it's the size used in most digital SLR's. This translates to much better low-light performance, such as indoor and evening shots.I was tempted by the higher priced Sony NEX 5 series, but I didn't think she'd use the extra pro features, whereas she would definitely use the built-in-flash and flip-up "selfie" mode view-finder display of the NEX-3N. Anyway - she loves her new white Sony NEX-3N. She says it focuses really really fast and is very light and "cute" :).

I was debating between this and the 5R. At the end I picked the 3N because it is much cheaper (3N + 55-2100mm lens cost the same as a 5R). The 5R has various advantages such as WIFI and better built, but I think there are 2 major things that are often overlooked:- The grip is much smaller on the 3N than the 5. It is still sufficient for the kit lens, but it is not deep enough for anything heavier or longer. The 5 is much more comfortable to hold for an extended period of time.- The custom button assignment is much more limited.If you can, you should try out both cameras to make sure the smaller grip doesn't bother you. I would personally pay $100 more if it has the 5 style grip.

Hello, I buy this camera to begin studying photography, I think is a good option for start, has very good reviews, I have the lucky to buy it in an offer from amazon and don't have regrets, the menu is very comfortable and easy to handle, the quality of the photograph is very good in spite of being only 16MP. I recommend with eyes closed, the screen is excellent and helps in certain situations, the lens that comes with the camera is good to start. Has an acceptable weight is not as heavy or light.

Великолепно
This is a great camera, smaller than a DSLR and will fit into a bluejeans pocket, barely. Nice wide-angle on the included 16-50 lens. I sprung for the SELP55210/B for a great telephoto. Indoors w/o flash is excellent, far better than any compact I have owned. Flash is good too, great for fill/backlit pics. It isn't a DSLR and lacks the stellar qualities of those cameras, but it's simply excellent and at the under $300 price I got on a Daily Deal it was a bargain too. Note: I am in the process of replacing this as I was foolish and had it at the beach and a few drips of salt water go a long way to kill a non-waterproof camera - Sony doesn't cover water damage but thankfully my Discover card does!

Плохо
This camera was a great price and a great shooting camera. Love it a lot. However, I was on vacation and the camera broke. No I did not drop it. I was taking a shot and the camera would not recognize the lenze. So I contact Sony and now it is in the shop. Not a good first experience with a Sony product. Hopefully yours does not break. Mine did. Overall, camera quality of pictures and features are awesome.
