Editor's Review
The NEX-F3 camera is the logical upgrade to Sony's NEX-C3, replacing the former with a slightly thicker build but adding a couple much-needed features. First and most importantly, the F3 now has a built-in flash, eschewing the former's bulky and awkward clip-on unit. The body is .3" thicker than the C3, but we think the pop-up flash alone is worth it. Video has also been improved to 1080/24p, and the flip-out screen now flips a full 180 degrees upward for self-portraits. Reviews have noted improved image quality over the C3 as well, a truly impressive feat, although autofocus isn't as good as Panasonic's G1X. The F3 looks to be a near-flawless entry-level mirrorless shooter.

Sony Alpha NEX-F3 Comments & Questions (write your own!)
Sony NEX F3K/B (Matt — 10/31/2012)
I just purchased the Sony F3 last week (bundled with the 55-210mm lens). Couldn't be happier or more impressed. There's a series of 'How to' videos that can be accessed through the Sony Store website which I found extremely helpful as the manual is printed so small it's barely readable. The camera is loaded with features that allow the novice to capture professional-quality pictures. I was a big fan of Minolta SLR's back in the '70's but gave up on photography following an accident which left me paralyzed. The Sony's super light weight and ease of use has allowed me to enjoy photography again. Fantastic camera!

When I play back an image it is small and surrounded by data. I want to see a large image w/o data at first. Camera setting??? I bought the camera on a month's trial basis and could not see through the LCD to focus in bright sunlight to take pictures in a swimming pool. Using intelligent auto focus. Having trouble remembering the hundreds of instructions. Help!

When you go to Playback mode hit the Display button (up on the 4-way controller) to cycle through the different display modes.
