recording, then press again to stop. A

settings, giving you the ability to carefully
craft each scene for maximum impact.
With P/A/S/M modes, you can precisely
adjust exposure and control defocus, two
important creative tools that are typically
performed automatically with camcorders.

Photo Creativity to emphasize mood or
completely transform the look of your
movies. In addition, new Object Tracking
Focus automatically keeps the subject in
focus, even when moving.

every sound of the scene
The NEX-5N has a built-in stereo
microphone that records audio with the
same accuracy for which Sony is famous,
and with minimal noise and wind effects.
The optional Stereo Microphone ECM-SST1
can be attached to the camera’s Smart
Accessory Terminal 2 to provide directional
audio coverage at either 90° or 120°.
