E PZ 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS electronic zoom lens

Sony’s 16-50mm electronic zoom lens is probably our favorite retractable one – not because of its optical properties, but mainly because it offers a zoom slider on the barrel and a zoom ring around the front of the lens. Both the mechanisms control the operation of the engine instead of offering the zoom control mechanisms directly, but the zoom ring allows faster and more responsive control over the lens, like an ordinary mechanical lens, while the slider provides subtle zoom, which is slow for videos. This is a huge improvement in Panasonic X Vario’s 14-42mm electronic zoom lens, trying to use a light switch to meet both needs. Sony’s lens also allows you to take the function of the lens ring for manual focus control. Although you have to wait for the lens to extend before you can shoot, the camera can capture the first photo in less than 2 seconds after you press the power switch.

Adjusting the zoom lens on the lens

The 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS electronic zoom offers two means to zoom the lens. A slider on the zoom lens provides slow zoom, suitable for filming, while a ring around the front of the lens provides a more common mode. In addition, the front ring may be aimed to control the focus manually.

Interestingly, the NEX-3N’s default settings assume that you will want to use the 'Clear Image Zoom' digital zoom of the camera, rotating the zoom ring now is easy to dive into the digital zoom area. The results are not bad in the previous model, but we've seen a slight advantage of it through a simple up scaling in Photoshop, so I'm not sure it's so easy to use out of purpose.

The parts of the machine

The zoom lever

The zoom lever

The most significant addition on the NEX-3N is the zoom lever. While this does not seem to be the most important change that can be made, it combines with the 16-50mm electronic zoom which allows the 3N to provide a shooting experience much like using a compact camera.

The pop-up flash

Although greatly reduced in size compared to the F3, the 3N retains a small pop-up flash.

180-degree flip-up screen

It also continues to provide a 180-degree flip-up screen. Unlike the more expensive 5R, the 3N’s screen is not a touch one.

The memory card slot

The 3N’s rear has an easy-to-use SD card slot, along with the ports on the left. These ports include a micro HDMI slot at the bottom, along with a micro USB slot at the top, which also acts as a means to charge the battery of the camera.

The NP-FW50 battery

The NP-FW50 battery

The NEX-3N’s NP-FW50 battery is the same in all the NEX models which were launched in the past. It is a 7.3Wh battery that Sony said would provide enough power for about 480 photographs, when tested using the CIPA standard method. However, we must assume that the test does not include the use of electronic zoom lens, which we suspect the NEX battery will run out of power faster than normal.

The NEX interface

The NEX-3N has the latest interface version that Sony created for the NEX series. It is also aimed at new users, but after five redevelopment generations, it becomes quite complex, with messy icons on the screen, but there is no clear way of interacting with them. However, the 'Photo Creativity' system is quite good at controlling a little the automatic mode – a few buttons make it easy to adjust brightness, warmth or contrast of an image. The option is available in both Intelligent Auto and Superior Auto modes, which will take advantage of multi-shot mode of the camera if necessary.

The NEX-3N’s default screen is quite regular. Oddly to say, however, there is no button that allows you to change any of the settings displayed by icons on the left. Press the down button will take you to 'Photo Creativity' mode, which allows you to change the five key parameters of the camera, based on the results.

In this picture, we adjusted the warmth (a proxy for white balance).

The NEX-3N is built on the Auto Portrait Framing mode introduced in Sony’s last generation, now called Auto Object Framing. The main difference is that the camera will now attempt to re-crop the image to focus on what it understood as the object of the object, even if it does not recognize the faces in the scene. Now, as well as portraits, the camera will re-crop the close-up object (macro) or whatever is determined according to the focus-mode on the subject of the new camera. Previously, the camera saved the original image as well as showed the cropped part that it selected.

Collection of sample photos

The first 15 photos in this collection were shot using the camera's Intelligent Auto and Superior Auto modes, with the camera selecting all the settings.
