While the NEX-7 is not available yet you can now take some lessons about your future camera by downloading the official pdf brochure: Dropbox via SonyAlphaNex.
And if you need a camera now than you might get the NEX-5n which just got his very first $50 price drop (via noisycamera). Problem is that it is backordered for 30 days 🙁

How about the clicking noise in Nex5n…was it fixed?
I have a newer model (UK) and the click is fixed so yes.
Thanks!
I’m curious about whether the clicking issue was resolved as well. The 5N is FINALLY available at Best Buy in Canada. They were being held at regional warehouses since early October. Now that they are available, I’m assuming they’ve been ‘adjusted’ to resolve any defects.
Anyone know how ABT has a $50 instant rebate on the NEX-5n? My local camera store says all Sony authorized dealers have the same pricing, but they nor B&H is offering the $50 off.
NEX-7 a beautiful camera, i wish i could have the money now for it. 🙂
Don’t worry. It is not for sale anywhere, yet.
Why can I not find a deal on the 5n with the 16mm lens?! The 5n with 18-55 is 700 while 5n with 16mm is 850. Anyone know of anywhere I can get this with a discount? I already have the 18-200 so would prefer the 16mm.
i am happy that it is not for sale anytime near here. i am saving just for this camera and will take one as soon it is up for sale here. awesomeness from sony 🙂
The brochure will have to replace the real thing under the Christmas tree. Sony should send a printed copy to all who have preordered and are waiting.
I could not find a user manual of the NEX-7 to download. Does anybody know where to get it?
Yes, here: http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp?forum=1042&thread=40077614
Thank you Adi, at least something to live with until the real piece comes!
I’m kinda annoyed about the preference of the blogger about the NEX system. No doubt about it, the Sony has made marvelous system with the new NEXes. And Andrea does a pretty good job of spreading sony camera news and rumors.
But isn’t this a sony ALPHA rumor site?
Did you take a look recently on any Sony we page ? It’s called an “alpha” NEX system. And an “alpha” DSLR system.
I write the news I get. Sometimes there are mroe NEX news and sometimes more Alpha. Today we had the Dpreview NEX-7 review and the NEX-5n discount. What should I do? Did yous ee some new A77 review or discount or any other top news?
Some people don’t appreciate the time you put in to this. Any Sony camera news is good news to me and others.
haha, some people are just pissed their precious DSLR isn’t on the news page enough, don’t take it too serious. no matter what you do, there will always be complaints.
Good deals on the Nex-5n @ ABT but I check and they are back ordered for 30 days or more!
Yeah nice deal at ABT but important to note that it is BACKORDERED 30 DAYS…..OR MORE. No thanks, I don’t like to hand out money and wait for a product that’s readily available in other places, even if it is cheaper.
The Nex-7 manual in english on my site.

I got a manual from some one, i do not have a nex-7 (yet)
Sony should be rewarding you for your efforts Andrea!! COME ON MR. SONY – RECOGNIZE AND REWARD PEOPLE WHO DO SUCH A GOOD JOB FOR YOU!!
Oh you think the LIKE having their roadmap leaked in advance, undermining current sales (“I will wait for the A99”)? Andrea does a great job, but if anything one should expect a lawsuit. Maybe you were joking.
Corporations know blogs like this exist and do nothing about it. Why? They do more help than harm.
