In this review, we continue to evaluate the new
Sony NEX-5. After giving our
first impressions last week, we continue to test the camera, this time with the kit 18-55mm zoom lens. Then we take it out for a field test to find out how it performs.
"Last week I took a look at the
Sony NEX-5 with the 16mm f/2.8 and, well, I wasn't exactly blown away by it. The weather was truly awful, which meant the video had to be done in a bar (honestly I had no choice. This week I thought I'd test it out some more to see if I could come to any conclusions, this time with the 18-55mm kit lens, which is also sparkly and shiny. We took it out on a blazingly hot day, so no chance of the weather prematurely ending our shoot."
