Jump to unread Post a CommentIsn't the 2 lens NEX 5N only £512.99 from Argos (online order though), with the code SNAP10?
It's in stock for home delivery, which is where you can use the 10% off code easily:- Sony NEX-5N 2 lens kit
I'm a long way from even being a serious amateur, but take lots of pictures of family and friends. The Nex-c3 almost never takes a bad shot.
Also does this camera take pictures instantly when you press the shutter? That's the main gripe I've had with every digital camera I've ever owned, the delay in pressing the shutter and it taking a picture.
Thanks for any help provided.

IMO the one with the best shutter speed lag is the Nikon 1 at the moment. It has something about it in the adverts about being a click ahead I don't really get how it works but played with one in Jessops and it was much quick than my old point and shoot. But in response to your first question yes this will be able to take a picture to blow up to a large canvas
I believe the C3 does 10FPS in high burst
I have the Nex 3 and it is a great camera

Thanks mate, will start saving!
If you are willing to spend around the £500 then check out the Lumix GF5. Comes in at £469 after £50 Panasonic cashback @ SRS Microsystems

Fantastic camera, and gets the same sort of positive reviews as the NEX 5N.
Didn't know you could do this! Any more info? What would I need?
Would the lenses still gave auto focus?
Best camera I have ever owned!
