Hey all,

Still plugging away at what to buy. This week's edition of 20 questions revolve around the[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] Sony NEX-5R.

The 5R can be picked up for $500 with an 18-55 lens, and a 10 Bar Housing with a flat port for ~$840. This puts it at below the initial buy in cost of a Sony RX100ii. In terms of video, all the lovely marketing tells me that it is superior.

So why aren't people flocking to the 5N? Or are they just out diving it, and not posting here?

Thanks,

Hi Mark,

I would suggest... Go for it! Check out all the videos on my YouTube Channel all shot with the Sony NEX5R

I will be posting some more tutorials about my experience with this camera in upcoming videos, but as you can see I've been able to get some pretty good results.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
 
I sure will! Thanks!
