Sensor quality

You don't need to be a professional to achieve truly high-quality shots - the NEX-5RKB System Camera is fitted with a DSLR-sized APS sensor that offers a massive 16.1 megapixels of quality in a compact camera body.

You'll now be able to achieve much sharper, more detailed and colourful shots with this fantastic compact camera – impress your friends and family with high-res, creative images every time!

The powerful BIONZ processor behind the sensor means you'll get clear, detailed images with a minimum of noise, even in low-light.

The large, quick-response APS-C sensor can deliver ISO speeds from 100 right up to 25600 for those really dim conditions.

In focus

Since the NEX-5RKB Compact System Camera is equipped with faster focusing capabilities, you'll be able to capture those unexpected and fantastic moments as soon as you see them.

Never miss another moment as the camera automatically calculates subject movement and direction for much faster, more precise shooting without hassle.

This advanced focusing system lets you capture high-speed sequences – you'll maintain focus as you follow subjects, achieving high-speed series of up to 10 frames per second.

You can also pull off a rapid burst of 6 frames for a single low-noise image with reduced blur.

Wireless and connection facilities

The Sony NEX5RKB.CE Camera comes with integrated WiFi technology, so you can share your photos as well as having access to image-enhancing apps. Show everyone your skills quickly and in the best light possible.

Since the camera is DLNA-certified, you can send your images to your smartphone, TV, tablet or other compatible device for quick sharing or file transfer and backup.

There's also an HDMI port for you to send an HD signal to your laptop, TV or other HDMI-compatible device so you can see your photos in gloriously crisp HD.

Flexible-use touchscreen and controls

You'll easily be able to find the correct setting quickly using the style control wheel, which gives you straightforward access to common shooting modes or custom settings you've created.

One of the greatest features of the NEX5RKB.CE is its 180° tilting LCD touchscreen, which lets you see every angle no matter what your standpoint on the subject is.

This makes it both easier to achieve trickier shots, and get creative with unique positioning relative to your subject. Take advantage of the fantastic visual potential on offer, from taking self-portraits to mind-blowing quirky angled shots.

Since it's a touchscreen, all you need do is tap the screen on your desired focus point for automatic lock-on and image capture.

If it's effects you're after...

There's also an on-board retouching facility that lets you remove minor blemishes and wrinkles to create flawless faces.
