From what I have seen, the NEX-C3 is similar to the 5N in this regard. My personal experience is that the Sony 16/2.8 edge performance is similar on the C3 and 5N, in both cases a bit better than it was on the 5.The Leica M8/M9 and Ricoh GXR-M do the best job with these lens designs so far. Sony's NEX 5n is alone in the NEX and mFT camera lines that does pretty well with them, almost as well as the GXR-M
Could be ... I've never even seen a NEX C3 never mind seen any testing work done with one.From what I have seen, the NEX-C3 is similar to the 5N in this regard.

I thought Sean's last testing on the CV15 showed that GXR had less color shift and was more cyan vs Sony more purplish but both clearly needed to be corrected with cornerfix or an LCC correction. It was published yesterday.Could be ... I've never even seen a NEX C3 never mind seen any testing work done with one.
Sean Reid's latest update on the A12 comparing NEX 5n and GXR-M demonstrate pretty clearly that the GXR-M does a better job with "near symmetrical" short focal length RF lenses. That falls in line to what I saw with my friends NEX 5 and Sam's comparison of 5n and GXR-M.
I read Sean's report last evening. It showed that, but it also showed substantially better corner/edge resolution, all the time, with the GXR-M vs the NEX 5n despite the decrement to 12 Mpixels vs 16 Mpixels. With the NEX 5n stopped down to f/5.6-8 (CV 15), there was improvement but it never hit the same quality as the GXR-M. The color shifting is a lesser problem; the resolution degradation is more significant.I thought Sean's last testing on the CV15 showed that GXR had less color shift and was more cyan vs Sony more purplish but both clearly needed to be corrected with cornerfix or an LCC correction.

Interesting lens offerings for later this year and next:
Later this year:
-14mm f/2.8
- 18-72mm f/4.0 with IS (Image stabilization).
Next:
- 28mm f/2.8 pancake
- 23mm f/2.0
- 72-200mm f/4.0 IS
- 12-24mm f/4.0 IS
The 14mm makes adapted super wides kinda moot.

Are rumor sites now become part of the marketing campaign? What the world is coming too!It's listed on several of the rumors sites
Well, given the state of Kodak, and the fact that Hasselblad has a tight working relationship and history with Fuji, the notion of Fuji making sensors for them is an interesting leap of logic.Full res sample files here:

Simply amazing what this little camera can do!
If Fuji scales this up to MF it's game over for some other players.
Word out on the wilderness is that this Fuji designed sensor was made by Toshiba that is now owned by Sony.Well, given the state of Kodak, and the fact that Hasselblad has a tight working relationship and history with Fuji, the notion of Fuji making sensors for them is an interesting leap of logic.

Currently an e-cig ... another tech oddity to simulate the real thing like some of these cameras ... you have to suck on it like a baby bottle for a single puff :ROTFL:Well - Anders - I cannot see where these images are not sharp or of any bad quality already in this preliminary version ....
What are you smoking
