Sweet! With about an 8x crop factor, I can finally use my iPhone 5 for birding:

Please, you should know that I'm joking. I don't even have an iPhone.

Now you only need a good lens, and can't use the best of it... The AF system. :D

Sony has the Android users covered (with a better sensor than any of our Android or iPhones, too): http://www.sonyalpharu​mors.com …a-and-a-good-nex-ff-news/ (external link)

Put a 400mm lens in front of it and you have a 3200mm FOV :shock:

As far as image quality goes... I wonder if it's pretty much the same as if you cropped the same FOV from an image taken with your DSLR. :p

LOL@the $250 price tag, for that money you could buy a REAL used DSLR.

But you'd have to download to your computer before you can send it off to Facebook.

Good that they mention you can still use a Diana adaptor on it. It'll give me that retro feel of using a vintage seventies iPhone again.

I like to manually download, like back in the old days, it gives me more control.

More pixels isn't going to make a soft image sharper.

Not to mention the extra plastic lenses with fingerprints on it will also improve the IQ.
