Sony NEX - 3N or 5R camera

Hi Guys,
Im looking to buy a new camera. I orginally had a Canon g11, which was great until it died half way through my greece holidays. i was going to buy the canon g15 but it has no articulating screen.
I need to get a new one and have come down to the sony nex series. im not a pro at all and really like point and shoot. I went for this model because it has an articulating screen which is a must, esp. if your on holidays. also great picture quality.
Say money is no issue, which camera would you buy. whats stopping me from purchasing the 5r, is it has no inbuilt flash which is be annoying.

Matthew

  • I think you should be comparing the 5R and the F3, the 3N is old.

    Considering you only PnS (ie Auto shoot), get the older 5N and couple it with a EVF. Unless of course you can find the 5R at a close enough price.

    But then again the 5R includes the excellent travel 16-50mm powerzoom. Your choice I guess.

    • The F3 is discontinued. F3 released June 2012 and succeeded by the 3N in March 2013.

      here is wikipedia page for the different E-mount cameras, their intended user level as well as release date etc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_E-mount
