Sony NEX-series DSLR are super compact

Sony have introduced a brand new line of DSLRs that come under the NEX line. These are made to be super thin and consume less space in your carry case, bag, whatever. The NEX-3 and the NEX-5 are 1 inch thick. Of course, that’s without the lenses. They have the 14 mp CMOS sensors that could be found in the Alpha line of DSLRs. The E-mount lens system does well in case of these cameras however, if you’re planning to use the Alpha lenses that you have then I’m afraid, it’s not happening.

The only downside that these have that really make it lose a brownie point is the missing in-camera sensor shift stabilization. The NEX-5 can even do 1080i!
