Point and Shoot Comparison

Here’s a quick comparison between the Sony NEX-5, NEX-3, Panasonic GF1, and the Olympus E-PL1. These are the best point and shoot cameras out on the market these days. Why? they all have interchangeable lenses. Why is that good? Because different photographic compositions may require different types of lenses. You may ask yourself, why not just get a DSLR? My answer here would be, yes. Get a DSLR, and if you’re a serious photographer, you may also need a back up camera in case your DSLR falls off a bridge. As for me, I don’t want to keep bringing around a bulky Canon 5D Mark II all the time. So if I don’t want to miss a single moment, I’d be best off picking up one of these point and shoot cameras to carry around in my pocket. Personally, I think I’m inclined to go for the Sony NEX-5. It’s well built and compact. It also looks like a DSLR met a cameraphone and made a baby. Anyway, check out the comparison to know which is the best compact digital point and shoot camera for you.
