Sony NEX-5

Anyone had a look at these lil cameras yet?

They look bang on for a poorman's modern digital rangefinder.

I'm just holding off until someone announces an adpater for canon EF mount...

I've just taken delivery of a Nex 5 as my carry around/travel camera to supplement my Canon DSLR (50D). I've found the NEX to be great fun and easy to use. Don't be frightened off by the reviews which are critical of the lack of buttons and the need to navigate menus. This is not a problem as the menu design is well thought out and makes setting changes quick and easy. The APS-C sensor and the RAW format capability makes this camera a viable alternate to a DSLR in many situations.
