At the touch of a dedicated Movie REC button, the NEX-5 shoots HD video with stereo sound as compact MPEG4 files that are ideal for PC storage and web sharing. Furthermore, Full HD (1920 x 1080i) video can be captured by the NEX-5 as high-quality AVCHD files. The NEX-5, along with the NEX-3, are the first Alpha cameras featuring Sweep Panorama. Just press the shutter button and swing the camera side-to-side or up and down. A high-speed burst of frames is stitched together automatically to create detail-packed panoramas. Images and camera settings are displayed on the big, bright 3-inch, Xtra Fine LCD with TruBlack technology that tilts up or down for comfortable viewing in any shooting position. The Sony NEX-5 come supplied with a super-compact clip-on flash that attaches via the smart accessory terminal when needed for low-light shooting. An optional LA-EA1 Mount Adaptor extends compatibility to the Alpha family of 30 lenses, plus a huge range of other legacy A-mount lenses (Manual Focus only).
