Spending the weekend with the Sony Nex-7

February 12, 2012  |  Blog  |  No Comments

After what was a crazy week at work, I finally had the time to head out with the Nex-7.

There camera was a sheer joy to use, largely because of the ease-of-handling of the camera. Every switch and button was within the reach of my right thumb and index finger and that really means a lot for me.

I'm not exactly street photography material but here are some snapshots taken over the weekend with the kit lens.
