Since the NEX-3 has been discontinued early this year, many people has been waiting for the successor for the NEX-3. So now it has been official that the NEX-C-3 will be replacing the NEX-3. The NEX-C-3 seems to be using the same APS-C sized sensor as in the NEX-3 but the megapixels will be increased to 16.2MP while the size of the body will be smaller than the NEX-5. The NEX-C-3 should be somewhere in between the compact camera and the lower end DSLR which is small in size but able to capture high quality image.
Besides that Sony also has announced the Alpha A35 which will replace the A33 and it has the same sensor as the NEX-C3 and the translucent mirror technology. Both the cameras can shoot up to 5.5fps and the A35 can shoot at 7fps at 8.4MP. There will be a new 30mm f3.5 macro lens and a larger external flash for the NEX series cameras. It will be a great addition to the current gears.
It is heard that the Sony NEX-C3 will be available in late July or August and the A35 will be in store in August. Prices will be released soon.
