thought long about my Nex 3N Duch an Alpha to replace 5000. Most have discouraged because of the contrast to Nex 3n was not so great.
Despite the great continuous shooting mode the A6000 this was the moment simply not in my financial framework. This morning came the MM then just the first Alpha 5000 with 16-50 and I could not resist. Now my completely subjective opinion of why the purchase was worth it for me:
Menu structure:
Much better and much clearer than in the 3n.
More settings.
Auto ISO:
For me, the decisive improvement. One can at the A5000 now min and max ISO specify values for the Auto ISO mode!
Display:
Was just a walk in the sun and with attitude: to use really good sunny is the display, was much worse with my Nex 3n.
Autofocus:
Single AF subjectively a little fixer but definitely much more accurate than in the Nex 3n. Even with less contrast scenes he finds his target, the Nex 3N brought me there sometimes to despair.
General response time:
Operation of the Cam is really liquid of equip, makes you feel good.
Image Quality:
With jpg all functions such as Panorama, effects, etc are available. Quality is fine, but with RAW you can pick out a lot more of his pictures.
RAW like it very much. I do not use the supplied RAW converter, but Lightroom 5.4. It is impressive how much sharpness you can get out of the RAW images of the Cam. Even when rescue shadow and highlight one has much room for maneuver. I renounce gladly on a few gimmicks and only shoot in RAW.
Have uploaded some sample images. A picture is worth a 1000 words.
WiFi and CO:
I do not know, the toy does not need :-)
My Conclusion:
The A5000 is not just a behind hergeschobene Nex 3n in a new guise.
It's rather a nice development of this. I am glad to have anyway bought these. Makes a lot more fun than my old 3n Nex.
