I am thinking the other way, if mostly stick with kit lens, then D3100/500D/550D vs NEX3/NEX5 .. not much different, other then NEX kit is much cheaper.
NEX3 + 18-55 kit lens, not that much smaller then D3100+kit .. Picture quality will be close, those NEX system is decent in quality, if you don't mind the look.
Lots of lens to choose for the NEX (adaptor, no AF) of course, lots of great lens for 550D as well, and D3100 etc. ( no af )
Living in Canada, size may not be the problem, if in HK, then carry the NEX (or GF1/2) is nice, just put it in your purse, but here, will use camera bag anyway, just throw to the trunk. |
