I bought a 5N in 2018 then the 5R in 2019 plus a separate EVF that works brilliantly (very expensive). The EVF swivels all the way up to a vertical position which has been extremely useful in some situations and really comes into its own in very bright sunshine rather than trying to see the screen. Autofocus is great but has its limitations and I now use the 5R with adapters and manual lenses for photo/video work.
I got the Nex 5T, because it’s cheaper than the 5R. For some reason the 5R is more popular here in Indonesia, therefore the price increase significantly over the “non popular 5T”
Thank you for continuing to making Sony NEX videos. I love my NEX-5N and also feel the R is better camera with that extra wheel and ISO button. I also use it with the external EVF.
Had this camera last year, sold it and regret it. It's great and what mirrorless cameras should be. Small, light, compact with a good sized sensor and great image quality with the right lenses. I got some great results with it and the Sigma 30 f/1.4 Need to pick up another one
I have it in a locker, after a fall it has a broken battery door, but the silver tape fixed everything :)) I still feel nostalgic and take it for walks sometimes. It still gives good results if you can handle it. I'll try to put on the 50/1.4GM and see how it amazes me :)
Found this camera in a closet today, going by the images it's been sitting in there since 2017. Has the 18-55 lens on it. Ordered some new batteries for it, got 2 plus a charger for 17 bucks new on amazon, should be a fun camera take as a backup for my D850 with the sigma 150-600mm lens :)
Great content on the NEX series, thanks to your videos on the NEX-5R, I got mine this week and I am really enjoying it. I am new to the photography and videography world, and happy to see that there are still cost-effective solutions out there for beginners that give quality image for social media content. Do you know of any cages that will work with the NEX5?
Thank you for the great video! I'm about to get a 5R but I'm also considering other options. What camera would you recommend for low light shooting with the same price range as the 5R?
That’s rough. At that point I would just go for the A6000. Can you purchase one overseas and have it shipped? I’ve purchased several from Japan and have them shipped to the USA.
@@kraigpruett nah probably still not worth it. I had a 5N before but sold it during covid, so recently got a a6000 for $520 with a 176 shutter count haha
I got my NEX5R a few days ago at $135(according to Japanese currency) with a kit lens, everything from the box and another camera case which is a really good price point. Going back to Cambodia to test it soon. That is going to be my girlfriend's first camera as a beginner.
Have one and agree it's a great body. Wish Sony would make a current small body with all the their new improvements, and for me especially SILENT SHUTTER. That's the one sore point for me. It would be a perfect street shooter if the shutter was silent or quieter.
I picked one up for £30 (less than $40) which had the typical early Sony E mount stuck shutter problem. So pretty easy fix to get it back to 100%. Its replaced my A6000 (which was sold to fund a A7R IV, which has become my main camera for both FF and APSC lenses) and its definitely good enough for most cases. Its got that hybrid autofocus and the 16mp combined with the APSC sized sensor really is just about good enough. You can more easily pixel peep but for most realistic use cases its not really an issue. For prints, it holds up exceptionally well at least up to A3+ size (which is the largest printer I have).
@taz24787 giving it a whack will usually unstick it temporarily. You can also turn off the electronic second curtain. Opening it up and tightening the spring holding the second shutter fixes it.
HELP PLEASE!! I was looking on ebay for a nex-5r and came across the alpha nex-5r. The offer is $250 with tax and shipping from Japan (I live in the US) Would this be a good deal? I’m not sure because I’ve never purchased cameras before and considering the recent “hype” of these type of cameras within the younger gen. Please any advice! 🙏 Also Subbed because your channel is great!!
Can you suggest some good settings for vlogging and sit down videos on the Sony nex 5t. I just brought it for making content because I couldn’t find a 3n and 5r.
I got a 5T for £20 ive gor the 6 and had the 5R the 5T is better then both the autofocus performance is crazy and is nore liken a5000/6000 rather then a nex camera ige also got a a6500. Shame about the build quality or this would be my hiking camera its that good
How can I save the settings of MyStyle? Like contrast, saturation, sharpness. I've changed and it went back to the default setting after turning off the camera.
A guy is asking for 350 USD for nex 5 r with a sony e 1.8/35 oss lens Should I get it now? Or I shouldn't The main thing I want to do with next 5r is video recording so pls tell me if there's a better camera in price point between 200-300 usd
Definitely the PZ 16-50 lens. The Canon lens won't work with the Sony camera, unless you use an adapter and that will give really poor results for this camera.

Just purchased this camera yesterday and I'm waiting to receive it. I made the decision partly because of your opinion about it.
where did you purchase it ? can you share me the link as well.

Hi, where did you buy it from because apparently Walmart canada is selling it for 800 ?!
@@simranbhola5854 damn 800? I have a NEX 5N if ur interested, tho ur in canada. im in EU, sweden.
Please give me the purchase link. Thanks!
DOES IT HAVE THE PICTURE EFFECTS? SUCH AS SOFT FOCUS, RETRO, WATERCOLOR?
Thank you for the great video! I'm about to get a 5R but I'm also considering other options. What camera would you recommend for low light shooting with the same price range as the 5R?
It’ll be hard to find another camera between $100-200 that’s better than the 5R… maybe the NEX-6?
@@kraigpruett thank you for the answer!
Unfortunately the 5R in Australia people are asking $400 for it used. You can get a a6000 for $550
That’s rough. At that point I would just go for the A6000. Can you purchase one overseas and have it shipped? I’ve purchased several from Japan and have them shipped to the USA.

I want to start taking pictures at local outdoor and indoor sport games. Can this camera do the job ? And what lens would you recommend?
Were the Photo Samples taken with aftermarket lenses ?

I got three not one nex 5n with EVF 😊 touch screen auto focus
Which one performs better under low light conditions between the Nex 5r and a5000?
can you share the link where did you buy the camera?
Now I'm confused. Which is the best one in Nex 5 series. Or should I go to Nex 7 series. Which one gain in Nex 7?
Can you suggest some good settings for vlogging and sit down videos on the Sony nex 5t. I just brought it for making content because I couldn’t find a 3n and 5r.
Just responded on the other thread!
@@kraigpruett thank you man I truly appreciate it
Can you share the link where you bought it?
I'm planning to buy now 🥹
uup
Which lens does you use for landscape znd portraits please with this model ?
Where u buy it
Thank you bro
100% welcome
Thinking of buying a mirrorless camera for my birthday to get back into photography. Should I get the nex 5n or the a5100?
If you can find an A5100 that will be your better choice. But the 5N is a great photo camera as well
@@kraigpruett One last question, how good is the sony a3000?
what software or application did you use to upscale the quality to 4K?
I simply scaled it up in premiere.
Where did u buy yours? I want to buy too
It's discontinued, so probably eBay
From eBay. Just got one at $190 there. Japanese setting tho
Hello, does the camera have an HDR braket option? Thanks
Love this camera
Hello, with the nex 5r, do we have the additional crop in video mode ?
do you have any photo sample ?
How is the autofocus of 5r in video??
I got a 5T for £20 ive gor the 6 and had the 5R the 5T is better then both the autofocus performance is crazy and is nore liken a5000/6000 rather then a nex camera ige also got a a6500. Shame about the build quality or this would be my hiking camera its that good
Hey, which website did you get the camera from? Thank you?
eBay!
What camera are you using to record this video?
I believe I shot this on the A7IV
Will a MicroSD card with an SD Adapter work for this? I have a Sandisk Extreme pro microSD Card.
How can I save the settings of MyStyle? Like contrast, saturation, sharpness.
I've changed and it went back to the default setting after turning off the camera.
A guy is asking for 350 USD for nex 5 r with a sony e 1.8/35 oss lens
Should I get it now? Or I shouldn't
The main thing I want to do with next 5r is video recording so pls tell me if there's a better camera in price point between 200-300 usd
Wait for another one. Its just the kit lens
What’s the difference with 5RK?
K usually stand for Kit, with comes with the kit lens
I bought a Sony nex 5r and wanted to ask if anybody knows a fisheye lens that fits on the Sony nex 5r.
I got 1 nex 5r silver n the video mic is not so good
My mom got me the same camera with just 2k shutter count and it cost around 63 dollars
$63 is a steal!
who knows either lens sony e mount pz 16-50mm or Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens is good for sony nex 5r ? please let me know your opinion 🥹
Definitely the PZ 16-50 lens. The Canon lens won't work with the Sony camera, unless you use an adapter and that will give really poor results for this camera.
