Sony NEX-5n

I’ve had the Sony NEX-5n in hand for all of a day now; however, I already have some quick first impressions to share.

First up, its a very fun camera to use.  Quick response from shutter and focus.  Autofocus is also very good in video mode.  The face tracking AF during video recording seems to be very smart and smooth all the way around.

It’s also very compact – with the biggest part being the lens, which is rather bulky on the otherwise tiny camera.  That’s the nature of the beast though, particularly considering that it is an 18-55mm zoom lens that’s including in a very affordable kit package. [click to continue…]

DigitalRev says on its Facebook page that it has received an invite to a Canon “Pro” announcement on September 22.

Canon sure is making some noise this week with a “major” tease and a mirrorless hint.  Now this?

Canon Pro Announcement

Any guesses/wishes on what this might be?
