I was annoyed to discover that the Sony NEX-5n does not feature an a/v live video output for the downlink. This was overcome by buying an HDMI to composite video converter. In the meantime, an uncorrupted pdf Owner's Manual just does not exist. Every single link (including the supplied NOISY-AS-HELL CD) is corrupted with gobble-de-gook down the navigation column.
The first test flight produces very encouraging looking video - when viewed on the camera's own screen - but 50fps cannot be imported on a Mac. The supplied (Sony rubbish) software is PC only for the movie import functions. With a Mac they only allow you to access photos. What a load of B/S.
Panasonic is not that much better, using the ancient and slow PCMCIA card format for its P2 range.
Canon software is rubbish. Nikon software is rubbish.
They can make great products but why are the Japanese so computer backward?
