Hello,
So I am in the market for a Mirrorless camera and hoping to get some ideas. I want it to be small as I will plan to use it for travel and times where I just don't want to carry around my D90. Though my D90 does do video, I am hoping for better video performance.
Right now I am heavily leaning towards the Sony NEX-5N. Really small size, APS-C sized sensor, plenty of great reviews. Cool features like focus peaking, sweeping Pano's, bracketing etc. It also should be able to outperform my D90 in the video department with focus tracking.
Problem is, I am really not too familiar with the other options. I would like to be able to have an adapter to use my Nikon lenses which I don't expect to be a problem in any case knowing it was be a manual lens.
What are some other options I might want to check out? The Nikon 1 series sensor is just too small for my liking. I have read up on the Samsung NX1000 and there is a decent kit on my local craigslist, but reviews have been a bit lack luster.
Budget is about $500
Thanks
