Avis sur le produitSony Alpha NEX-7 24.3MP Body Only Digital Camera - Black

An older camera with a lot of years left in it.

This is easily one of the best bargains for a Sony APSC-sized sensor camera out there. It is 16 megapixels which seems low by todays standards, but keep in mind that many people are happy with 12 megapixel cameras on iPhones. The big difference is that different lenses can be used, noise suppression can be manipulated in RAW files and pixel peepers will get more detail. It is a Sony model so getting native lenses won't be a problem. Even old manual lenses from other cameras can be used with adapters. There is a zoom-to-focus button so when I use my old Zeiss knockoff Jupiter-8 lens, I can be sure that I'm getting the shot pin sharp. I like having more control over my camera than I could get with my iPhone and this is the perfect solution. Another important feature is that I can use almost any 3rd party remote shutter release with it. The NEX models before and after it didn't have that option included. NEX models that can be remotely shutter released are dependent on Sony support since it is a software-only option. The problem is as those models get older, Sony will stop supporting them and remote shutter release will stop working. Owners of those camera models won't have any other choices then. The 3N is future proof in that regard.Lire l'avis complet...

a very easy camera to us

This is my 3 rd Nex it has taken 3 types to get it right. /Started with a C 3 and then a 5000. I also use a
a Alpha a 57 and this camera is equal and as good as the Nex-7 ,but with the mechanics of the a 77.
Picture quality is excellent for a used camera, and the feel is just fine and to use is just as great.
I have 2 e mount lens a 18-55 mm and a 55-210 lens also. With my LA_EA 2 adapter all my other Sony and Minolta
lens work also.
I would say that Nex-7 is excellent camera and I would recommend it for any one who is a step away from the
Sony a 7 series cameras. This how I plan on going in the near future.

This is definitely a great product for everyone to enjoy! 5/5

Great camera for beginners.
I wanted to get a camera that I could make youtube videos with and do a little photography and this was perfect. The camera quality is absolutely stunning and the flash actually makes the quality better.
Camera lightens up pictures even in dark areas, really really cool.
I've tried a ton of nikon cameras and this is just a winner.
Shoots 1080p for around 25-30 minutes and is really fast.
The camera can be a little noisy when taking the pic but it's not that bad, just a normal click. It's a little top heavy ( because of the lens) which .. coming from point and shoots was definitely something I had to get used to. I am now! Starter lens is perfect.
Battery lasts a really long time. Very happy with this product 5/5.

Pros: Long lasting battery life, excellent photo/video quality,
Perfect for beginners, fast shutter speed, starter lens is very very good
Cons: Its not really a con just the weight of the lens is noticeable. I'm just starting out with the EVIL cameras before
i move on to a dslr so.. with any camera with detachable lenses there's going to be some carry weight.Lire l'avis complet...

An Outstanding Camera

I read the negative reviews and am curious what the issue was with the individual who thought it was terrible. Additionally, the individual who compared it to a Canon was comparing it to which one, if he compared it to the 5d MkIII, then clearly there is no comparison.

Having said all that, I love this camera. The 24mb pixel count is outstanding with incredible detail. I used it to photograph fireworks and it worked exceptionally well with great colors and detail on timed exposures. The HDR functionality is outstanding, and the fast shutter speed is very nice for sports and quick shots.

I'm not impressed with Sony's lens lineup, but everyone is unimpressed as well. That is being resolved and hopefully Sony will offer an Canon-L Series set of equivalents, otherwise we won't get the full potential of the device.

It is exceptionally light, and easy to handle, and frankly an outstanding by compared to the MKIII, adn I have been a Canon users for 25 years.

It's no more complicated than my personal computer, and anyone who has challenges navigating the user menus, just needs to pracice.

A Great Buy.Lire l'avis complet...

A great 1st camera for anyone wanting to get started with the NEX system

This review is being written only 3 weeks into my use of the Sony NEX - so my impressions may change with time. Nevertheless, my reasons for buying into Sony's E-mount system have been fulfilled completely, so I can recommend the NEX with great enthusiasm. ----- What's good? Back to my reasons for the original purchase! I have a large collection of old and classic lenses from dozens of "obsolete" cameras, and I have long enjoyed seeing what they'll do today, on modern digital sensors. The NEX system, with its relatively large, high resolution and high quality APS-C sensor - the same sensor used in most of Sony's full size DSLRs - and NEX's phenomenally short, 18mm lens mount-to-sensor distance, is the most affordable way thus far to play with oldtime optics and view camera-like movements (with the aid of oldtime shifting bellows and tilting adapters). Most adapter mounts are cheap and I am having a blast using both rangefinder and SLR lenses of the '40s, '50s, etc. with my NEX-3. Bravo, Sony!! ----- So what could still stand improvement? Well, from my perspective, a number of things: ----- First, get the prices down, Sony. I bought a discontinued but new NEX-3, despite its lower 14 MP sensor, because it cost 1/2 what the improved 16 MP NEX-3C does... and that let me "buy into" Sony's E-mount and left me cash to buy a bunch of Alpa through Zeiss Icon adapters! Sure, I lust after the NEX-7 - much improved with 24 MP, better controls, etc. - but with its $1K+ extra cost... well, I'm not that well-off. Maybe later! ----- Second, Sony should not cripple any basic functions of their low-end NEXs - like they did with the NEX-3's missing, remotely controlled IR shutter release! The common vendor strategy to push customers towards higher-end, higher-profit models they really can't afford is, IMHO, just plain stupid. I can't believe it adds anything to Sony's marketing success; it just drives potential customers to look elsewhere. ----- Third, Sony should reconsider their push to make the NEX system cameras ever smaller - especially when this ends up costing them really useful functionality like in-body shake reduction (which all the NEXs lack). I, and I suspect many others with medium to large hands, could happily work with a future NEX about the size and thickness of the old Olympus OM SLR bodies, and that would allow plenty of space for the missing image stabilization apparatus behind the APS-C sensor! The larger size would also permit fully manual controls as on the NEX-7 and dynamite OLED viewing within the camera body. ----- Fourth... fifth... sixth... well, I could go on and on. If only Sony would ask me! A full-size sensor? Sure. Better support for third parties who might like to produce electronically integrated adapters for non-Sony "legacy" lenses? Sure. Who wants to throw away their multi-thousand dollar investments in Canon, Nikon, Pentax, et al when moving to a new camera "platform"? I submit that the corporate thinking that says "lock customers into our own walled garden by crippling cross-platform compatibility" is short-sighted and counter-productive to sales volume. ----- Still, today's NEX is already a technically great system with tremendous potential. Sony has already made great strides in polishing both their in-camera firmware and later-model hardware - much of which has been retro-fitted to my lowly NEX-3. Again, bravo Sony! I look forward to buying newer, better models in the future, as I can afford them.Lire l'avis complet...

Great introduction to Dslr

I wanted to get a dslr without paying the huge price that they usually come with. After a lot of research, I decided on this camera and so far, so good.

The picture quality is great, taking shots is easy, but getting creative takes practice. However, getting ones hands on the accessories for the camera gets pricey.Lire l'avis complet...

only camera that can easily zoom any lens sinc it has an actual toggle to vary the digital zoom unlike having to use a menu type of option....

This is the only NEX camera from what I have seen that has a digital zoom toggle on the shutter release mechanism...This makes the camera very versatile when using with th VCL-ECF2 Fisheye auxiliary lens made specifically to fit the SEL16F28 lens...... This "n" variation of the NEX 3 is thus a real fun camera to use with that combo since you can real time change to fisheye effect using the that zoom toggle..

You can pick up both the fisheye aux lens and this 16mm lens for a good discount on the used market though both are being sold "new" by several companies..

This toggle allows you to vary the wide angle effect....

A new view with the "fisheye" lens
The VCL-ECF2 Fisheye Converter creates exaggerated perspective effect, with a full 180 degree field of view for the SEL16F28, and 133 degrees for the SEl20F28. The converter sports a smart new black finish.

• For use with SEL16F28 and SEL20F28
• Focal-length when mounted on SEL16F28, 10mm, and on SEL20F28, 13mm
• Easy locking bayonet mechanism for a quick and secure fit
• F2.8 maximum aperture of the lens remains unchanged because no light loss is incurred
• Sleek, high quality design Lire l'avis complet...

Awesome camera! HD pics and video

This camera it’s great. The menu helps you select the best setting for the type of picture you take. It suggests different information.

The video is good quality HD. However, it needs enough light for the sensor to pick up all the details. Overall good buyLire l'avis complet...

Great image quality in a pocket camera.

I bought the NEX 3NL as a small carry around camera for those times when I don't want to lug my SONY a77 DSLR around. I didn't need all of the features of the NEX5R or NEX6 or NEX7. I find the 3NL with the new and small telescoping 16-50mm lens to be perfect. It fits in a pocket and takes excellent pictures. It would be nice if it had a viewfinder, but it would be double in price to get that with the NEX 6 or 7 and it wasn't worth that. If I need a viewfinder and other features, then out comes the a77. And I always have the option of getting a longer telephoto fixed or zoom lens if I find myself using the 3NL more often. I am very pleased by the value, the portability and image quality of the 3NL.Lire l'avis complet...

Don't hesitate to cross to the Sony side of the street with the Nex 7

I bought this Sony Nex7 anticipating the novelty value of a mirrorless system and the convenience of such a small 'back-up' camera with a decent sensor.

What I didn't expect was its outstanding picture quality. It is difficult to fathom how Sony have pulled this off; so many pixels on a less than full frame sensor.

My Leica lenses shine on this body but my Voigtlander glass is revealed to be noticeably soft at the edges across all three lenses I have tried.

I'm still finding my way around this camera but, so far, it really does merit its "revolutionary" status. (All this for a fifth of the price of my Leica M9 body.)Lire l'avis complet...
