Helen - very true. Text has been updated to reflect the FDA-EV1S OLED viewfinder. It is, however, some £299 in the UK and very hard to locate at the moment.

Also, how does the NEX-5N do on the cons below for the NEX-5? -Built in mic for video does not handle loud music well -AF sometimes misses, though says its confirmed -Lenses have distortion and are a bit “lackluster†in detail and oomph Major thanks!
