NEX-7 First Look: Sony NEX-7 high-end APS-C mirrorless camera first look: Digital Photography Review

NEX-5N Press: Sony launches NEX-5N APS-C mid-range mirrorless compact: Digital Photography Review

NEX-5N DPreview Preview: Sony NEX-5N Preview: 1. Introduction: Digital Photography Review

New Lenses (Finally): Sony unveils four lenses for A and E mounts: Digital Photography Review

Lenses:
Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* E 24mm F1.8 ZA
Sony E 50mm F1.8 OSS
Sony E 55-210mm F4.5-6.3 OSS

The NEX-7 looks very impressive to me and really seems to address a lot of people's complaints about the NEX-5 and NEX-3. Same sensor and same EVF as the A77.

REVIEWS (I'll add more when I get the time)

Engadget:

NEX-7: Sony unveils NEX-7: 24.3 MP sensor, OLED viewfinder, $1199 price tag (video) -- Engadget

NEX-5N: Sony NEX-5N replaces NEX-5, adds 16.1 MP sensor, 25,600 max ISO, OLED viewfinder option (video) -- Engadget
Wish that VF worked with my NEX-5

Lenses: Sony reveals three new NEX E-mount lenses, LA-EA2 A-mount adaptor with translucent mirror -- Engadget

Awesome news on the new NEX adapter. It adds the SLT mirror setup with Phase Detect AF to the NEX!

I really wish Canon would make some slim mirrorless bodies like this. I like the idea of the Sony NEX series or the Olympus PEN but I don't want to invest in another system. CANON PAY ATTENTION!

I really like how slick these cameras and lenses look though.

I think mirrorless is fine and great but look at the size of the lenses in relation to the body.... thats just ridiculous.

Yeah, I am confused as well. I thought the A signified A mount.

I wish Canon made a rangefinder or a rangefinderish type camera (like the Fuji X100 which I love).
