Sony Style did not mess about, the website only gave us 24-hours to digest all of the information that was made available to us.

Engadget reports that pre-orders are now being accepted on the Sony Style store, but you will have a few tough decisions to make – do you go with the NEX-3 or NEX-5, and what size lens do you choose? There is a choice of a 16mm lens or an 18-55mm lens for just $50 extra.

The price for the NX-3 is $549.99, that’s with the 16mm lens; while the NEX-5 with its same size lens will set you back $699. The extra costs give you a more precise lens and a couple of other little features – so you will need to weigh-up if they are worth the extra $150.

You need to make certain that you make the right choice with the size of the lens you want, as you are unable to order them separately. There is a choice of other accessories available for both cameras, more details can be found on the Sony Style website.

The new form of camera is different as it offers an interchangeable lens; this helps the compact camera produce D-SLR-quality images from a point-and-shoot camera.

PC Mag managed to spend an hour with the two new cameras; PJ Jacobowitz thought that this was the perfect opportunity to offer a mini-review. He did not have enough time to fully appreciate the image quality, but he seemed very impressed with what he saw.

Both the Sony NEX-3 and NEX-5 are very similar, the major difference being with its video recording capabilities – the extra cost is just $100 for the higher model. Sony has a huge hill to climb to catch-up to Panasonic and Olympus, as they have offered interchangeable lenses for some time now – called their “Micro Four Thirds.”

However, Sony has the chance to overtake the both of them as the sensor is larger and offers better image quality. The NEX-3 is 1.38-inches thick while the NEX-5 is 1.56-inches thick. The screen on both cameras are 3-inchs, they offer 921,600 dots, more resolution than a Micro Four Thirds camera.

The prices for each camera are as follows: Sony NEX-3 with 16mm F2.8 Lens: $549.99, Sony NEX-3 with 18-55mm F3.5-5.6: $599.99, Sony NEX-5 with 16mm F2.8 Lens: $649.99 and the Sony NEX-5 with 18-55mm F3.5-5.6: $699.99.
