Gallery of Sony NEX 3N Sample Photos (RAW & SOOC JPGs)

The Sony NEX 3N was the last Sony mirrorless camera to be released under the NEX moniker. All subsequent APS-C and full-frame models, including the A5000 (the NEX 3n’s successor), assumed the Alpha prefix. An entry-level model with a rangefinder-style body, it comes with a 16MP APS-C sensor with an ISO range of 200-16000, a contrast detection AF system with 25 points and a tilting LCD screen.
