When Sony updated the NEX-3 with the 16.2-million-pixel NEX-C3 in June, it was a case of ‘when’ rather than ‘if’ the 14.2-million-pixel NEX-5 would receive a similar update. And it came just two months later, in August, when the 16.1-million-pixel NEX-5N...
Bottom line While it may seem that Sony has just added 2 million pixels to the NEX-5 and rebadged it, there is far more going on in the NEX-5N. For example, the image sensor isnt just of a higher resolution, as it also has a better dynamic range and improved handlin...
