Unbeatable duo—Exmor™ APS HD CMOS sensor + BIONZ® Engine

For richly detailed images with smooth tonal gradations, nothing beats Exmor and BIONZ technology.The new APS-C size sensor with 16.1 megapixels has the same surface area as sensors found in larger advanced-class DSLRs—an advantage that translates into superb image quality. Signal noise that can

degrade image quality has been markedly reduced thanks to proprietary processing technologies at the sensor, which cut noise before image data

is sent to the processor. After this, the powerful BIONZ image processing engine converts the vast amounts of data into beautiful, high-quality photos and movies.

Agile and precise to capture every fleeting moment beautifully

Minimal release time lag for lightning-quick response

Life’s moments can slip away in the blink of an eye so we decreased the release time lag to an astounding 0.02 sec.—five times faster than NEX-5 and the world’s fastest among interchangeable-lens cameras*. With response this quick, you now have the means to instantly capture spontaneous movement since there is virtually no delay when pressing the shutter.

Fulltime, wide-coverage autofocus for tack-sharp images

The 25-point, contrast-detection AF delivers precise results for both photos and movies. The AF points are strategically placed to cover a wide area of the frame, making it easier to change composition and track moving subjects—while maintaining focus. Two autofocus modes—Single-shot AF (AF-S) and Continuous AF (AF-C)—along with three Autofocus Area settings—25- point Multi, user-selectable Flexible Spot and Center—utilize an advanced new AF algorithm for outstanding performance and speed. When autofocus is not desired, you can switch to Manual Focus (MF) or Direct Manual Focus (DMF).

Focus made one-touch simple, even on moving subjects

The new touch screen puts focus at your fingertips. Just touch a subject on the LCD display and NEX-5N focuses on it for crisp, clear photos and movies. And when used with Sony’s new Object Tracking Focus function, focus locks onto the subject, keeping even moving subjects in sharp focus.Tracking Focus is the hassle-free way to maintain focus, even when zooming or changing composition.

Face Registration for catching familiar faces at their best

NEX-5N comes with new Face Registration, intelligent technology based on Sony’s renowned Face Detection.This lets you register up to eight faces, which the camera instantly recognizes and uses as the basis for adjusting focus, exposure, image processing and flash output—the perfect way to capture people at their most beautiful best. Face Registration can combine with Smile Shutter™ technology so that all you have to do is point the camera at a friendly smile and let NEX-5N do the rest!

Decisive moments captured at a blazing 10 fps

High-speed shooting at up to 10 frames per second—the world’s fastest*—in Speed Priority Continuous mode is ideal for capturing fast-breaking action. Powerful BIONZ processing combines with rapid data readout to process the 16.1 megapixels output from the Exmor image sensor. In addition, the 10-second self-timer can shoot up to three shots at a time.

*Among mirrorless interchangeable-lens cameras as of August 2011. Continuous speed varies depending on shooting conditions and memory cards. Focus and exposure are locked at the first shot.
