Sony plans for NEX-7 compact DSLR revealed


Even before Sony debuts its first compact DSLR camera in July, its follow-up plans have been leaked on the internet.

Sony recently announced its NEX-5 and NEX-3 mirror-less DSLRs, nearly two years after market leaders Olympus and Panasonic pioneered the mirror-less DSLR market with their Micro Fourth Thirds offereings in August 2008 - EP-1 and DMC-G1 respectively.

Sony has some catching up to do since Olympus and Panasonic have announced or launched their follow-up offerings - E-P2 and DMC-G2 respectively.

According to an EOSHD source, the NEX-7 will be available in the market by September.

It will feature an improved APS-C sized sensor that will allow video capture at 1080p at 60fps and 24fps.

It will also feature manual controls, the lack of which in the NEX-5 AND NEX-3 is sure to raise eyebrows with SLR users.

In addition, the NEX-7 will come with an electronic view finder, all of which will make the body heavier and the cost higher.

Interestingly, Samsung is reportedly set to follow up its NX-10 mirror-less DSLR with the NX-5, which will cut costs by doing away with a built-in electronic viewfinder.

So, while Samsung first entered the market with its high-end product, Sony is first offering its lower priced product.
