Sony NEX-F3 Sneak Peek

Sony NEX-F3 16.1 Megapixel Camera

bibogue at dpreview posted a sneak peak at the upcoming Sony NEX-F3.  It looks like the 16.1 megapixel APS-C sensor from the NEX-5N will make it's way into the NEX-F3.

F stands for flash? We're not sure but the new F3 comes with the same pop up flash button found on the Sony NEX-7, seen below.

Sony NEX-7 Built In Flash Guide Number=6

We are not sure whether an accessory evf will be compatible with the NEX-F3.

Here are the specs of the Sony NEX-7 flash which most likely will be the same for the NEX-F3.

• Flash Type : Built-in, Pop-up Auto
• Guide Number : 6 (in meters at ISO100)
• Recycling Time : Approx. 4 sec.

The NEX-F3 replaces the NEX-C3 and the NEX-3 before that. The NEX-C3 and NEX-3 came with the HVL-F7S flash which was attached atop the body via the smart accessory terminal.
