Sony Alpha NEX Camera: HD Video

Professional photographer, David McLain recently took the Alpha NEX-5 for a test drive in locations across South America. In addition being away on assignments worldwide for National Geographic, Smithsonian and Traveler, David is also a Sony Artisan of Imagery.

The idea behind the shoot was simple. Give a seasoned pro the NEX-5, a plane ticket to Chile, and total creative freedom. Here's his experience shooting HD video with the NEX-5. The NEX-5 is the first interchangeable lens camera with Full HD 1920x1080/60i AVCHD movie recording . Alpha NEX cameras are available at Sony Style.

Plus you can attach over DSLR lens to it!

@SignOfZodiac Good point - with an adapter you can attach your Alpha lenses to the NEX.

@JUCAVE Según mi humilde opinión, una serie de tomas tiene rasgos muy similares a paisajes de Chile (VI o VII Regiones), otro punto a considerar son las espuelas con un diseño muy usado en Chile, asi como la vestimenta del hombre que galopa es bastante típica en el campo chileno, por ultimo en la toma final se aprecia el paisaje de una ciudad al fondo (Con unos "bloques", una carretera y un letrero publicitario), lo que me hace mas pensar que es Chile, por las viñas cerca de la Panamericana.

How are the NEX's *any* better than the Alpha a33/55's other than the condensed bodies?

@JUCAVE Así es.

Very nice quality. I have a question for you: If mone isnt a problem for me, should I go for this camera or the new NEX-VG10? VG10 LOOKS alot better, but when I saw your video the quality looks exactly the same as in the demo videos of VG10. Thanks
