Mirrorless cameras

[steve1905]

Hi all,

I've been experimenting with my 550d this past year and am enjoying the new found control and depth of field that the large sensor can achieve. However since the Dslr is so bulky, I find that I hesitate to take it everywhere I'd like too. It also broadcasts a somewhat intrusive air onto street/travel photography.

I was considering a Canon S100 but the smaller sensor and fixed lens have almost put me off.

I've recently been looking at bridge/mirrorless cameras and have come across the Sony Nex-5N. Seems perfect, dslr (Aps c) quality images and manual control wrapped up in a compact body. It seems that the lens selection is limited but growing and it generally gets very good reviews.

I was wondering if anybody here owns a 5n or something similar they could suggest/share their experiences to help me decide.

Cheers

Steve

I do and commented on that other thread. Bloomin love it, only issue is it's slow (ish) auto focus, but using manual lenses it doesnt matter to me
