What did you do with your Z today

So a NEX 5 is a DSLR from Sony, is that correct? (too lazy to google). If so, very cool. Not too familiar with the Sony DSLR's...

Nice xdeslitx! I'm liking it so far, the pics are turning out quite well. Very impressed with the video!

FromG2Z -

Actually its more of a point and shoot with a full sized sensor and SLR lens. Its mirror less and does not have a viewfinder.. Very compact for what it is.. More of a fun gadget than a professional camera. However with some tweaking it can take shots on par with entry/mid level DSLRs

lol i always just call it a compact dslr...since its compact and produces dslr quality...easier for people to understand too

EDIT:
a lot of the quality seen from high end dslrs from my understanding is because of the high end lens...we can just use one of those lenses in the nex5
and not sure if you knew but you can get the viewfinder as an optional accessory...it attaches to where the flash attaches to

Yep, 15k and exactly one year for me. I have the same driving habbits from the same background.

How's everyone's RE-11's holding up?

Probably. Some people are getting away with not but I could not have. I had way too much negative camber in the back. Not as bad in the front. I will post more later about where I was and where I am now.

It eventually all becomes one big toy fund, trust me. My TT is on hold right now with a list of stuff I still want to do.

Nitex- Nice nice shots, cool dogs!
