Sony has sprinted out of the post-CES gate with a pair of new mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras and a trio of new Cyber-shot point and shoots. These models were announced in Europe last week,Hands-on video of HTC BlinkFeed and camera software on HTC One, but officially launched in the U.S. today. Sony unveiled the NEX 3N compact system camera, a new entry level addition to its photo hobbyist Alpha line.

Boasting a small, light body with a 16.1-megapixel APS-C size sensor and collapsible 16-50mm motorized zoom lens, this camera joins Sony's NEX line of compact interchangeable lens cameras as a replacement for the older NEX F3. It measures 4.33-by-2.44-by-1.38 inches and is designed for people stepping up from a fixed lens to an interchangeable lens camera.It features Sony's Auto Object Framing technology, which offers easier advanced composition by identifying the main object of a scene and automatically cropping photo around it.

An updated Bionz processor adjusts levels of noise reduction in images to deliver crisp images in all types of lighting. It has a maximum ISO of 16000, but should you need a flash, there's a new pop-up version on this model along with a new zoom lever near the shutter button. A 180 degree tiltable 3-inch LCD screen follows the trend of offering easy self-portrait framing. It's available in April for about $500.
