(ASIA PACIFIC, 29 AUGUST 2012) Serious picture performance, style and portability are blended beautifully in the new NEX-5R compact system camera from Sony.
Combining big-sensor image quality with the freedom of interchangeable lenses, the hybrid mirrorless camera offers all the benefits of DSLR-style imaging with less to carry. A power-packed step-up from your point-and-shoot compact, it is also a perfect second camera for photo enthusiasts who wont compromise on image quality or control when theyre travelling light.
With a resolution of 16.1 effective megapixels, the DSLR-sized sensor assures richly detailed still photos and crisp Full HD video. Teamed with the powerful BIONZ image processor, the NEX-5R ensures flawless, low-noise images even when youre shooting dimly-lit interiors at sensitivity settings up to ISO 25600.
In a first for interchangeable lens cameras by Sony, Fast Hybrid AF combines phase- and contrast-detection autofocus methods to suit the demands of any shooting situation. First, phase-detection AF quickly detects subject distance; then contrast-detection activates to confirm extremely fine, precise focus. In Speed Priority Continuous mode, the NEX-5R switches automatically to phase detection tracking AF. Youll enjoy DSLR-like focusing responses when youre capturing fast-moving action with high-speed burst shooting at up to 10 frames per second.
From launch, Fast Hybrid AF is supported with these lenses: E 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 OSS; E 55-210mm F4-6.3 OSS; E 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 OSS; Sonnar T* E 24mm F1.8 ZA. Firmware upgrades will steadily expand the range of lenses offering Fast Hybrid AF support.
Framing, adjusting, shooting and viewing images is a pleasure on the intuitive touch-screen LCD. Its complemented by a fully-featured control dial and Function button: a versatile combination for any photographer whos accustomed to the flexibility of their DSLR camera. Theres also a new Touch Shutter function that makes it easier than ever to pick your perfect moment.
The clear, bright touchscreen flips through 180 degrees for easy arms length self-portraits. Enthusiasts will also welcome the switchable on-screen digital level gauge that helps keep horizons level with landscapes and architectural shots.
Full HD movie shooting has also been enhanced with a new Auto Slow Shutter feature that adds extra sparkle to low-light clips. The camera detects dim interiors ¬¬and night scenes, automatically switching to a slower shutter speed to brighten up your footage.
The NEX-5R is the first interchangeable-lens digital cameras by Sony with integrated Wi-Fi capabilities for easy image sharing, saving and viewing. Photos and videos can be transferred wirelessly to any smartphone or tablet thats running the free PlayMemories Mobile app.
Alternatively, transfer all those memories directly to a networked PC, simplifying image back-ups without having to fiddle with memory cards or connecting cables. Photos stored on the NEX-5R can also be enjoyed directly on any DLNA-compatible TV, with no HDMI cable needed. Share via your wireless access point, or bypass your router and send pictures straight from the camera to TVs supporting Wi-Fi Direct.
The NEX-5R even lets you upgrade the cameras capabilities any time to suit your shooting needs. Brand-new PlayMemories Camera Apps is the worlds first download service that lets you install new functions on demand. You just need to connect the camera to your PC via USB or directly over Wi-Fi to do this.
From launch, available apps include Picture Effect+; Bracket Pro; Multi Frame NR; Smart Remote Control and Direct Upload. Sony also plans to provide more new apps, such as Photo Retouch; followed by Time-lapse and Cinematic Photo.
New accessories include the Screen Protect Semi Hard Sheet PCK-LM13 with anti-fingerprint coating beautifully protects your LCD screen.
The NEX-5R will be available in Asia Pacific from November 2012.
