“Roam like a tourist. Shoot like a pro”
Nice slogan. 🙂
I still think the NEX is not so much a camera for someone who wants full control.
Like a lot of reviewers said with the HX5, ‘It shoots what I want to shoot, not what I think it should.’
This is a camera that is more about learning what mode to use for the right circumstances and how to use it.
More result oriented than proces.
interesting, that sweep pano video. He did it with a soccer field of moving players. Marketing fluff, or does that mean Sony has enhanced that function to get rid of the ghosting effects from moving objects seen in the the pre-production models? I sure hope so.
Their catch prase “Roam like a tourist” is almost the reverse opposite of the “Don’t be a tourist” message in the Kevin Spacey / Olympus Pen commercials. Apparently two different target groups 🙂
Has anyone checked out the DP Review Sony forum in the wake of the Nex reviews? I’ve never seen anything like it. LOL! Some folks have managed to really strike a nerve with the DP Review staff.
I can not view these videos, either on this site, or elsewhere. It says “this is a private video. If you have been sent this video please make sure you accept the friend request”
Does anyone know of a link to them that is still working? Thanks!

And I still intend on getting one. 🙂
“Sony Artisan of Imagery”?
Yech.
About as bad as “Olympus Visionary” and “Canon Explorer Of Light”
Great videos and catchy slogan.
These are very strong commercials; I hope they’ll be shown a lot in the American market–and I suspect they will be. That’ll be a change!

I wonder how low-light video compares to my 5dmk2.
@qbic Your 5dmk2 will be better! But it’s also a few times bigger and heavier!
“Full-size APS sensor” – now that’s an intriguing claim from Sony’s side.
@qbic and Kallson … and few times more expensive …
In the second movie he has a lens in his pocket with no lens or end cap …shoot like a tourist!
The sweep panorama looks a nice toy.
Okay I’m sold… now give me a fast lens, F1.8 or something.
