The tiny Sony NEX-C3 digital camera's ability to take such sharp photos and high-def videos has everything to do with great lenses (which are interchangeable) and a big super-sensitive sensor (great for low light) that's about the size you would get in most bulky SLRs. Measuring just 4.3 inches by 2.4 inches by 1.3 inches deep (without a lens), the camera comes with either an 18-to-55mm zoom lens or 16mm wide-angle lens, and includes a snap-on flash. There's also an optional 18-to-200mm zoom lens. The screen can be tilted up or down for overhead or down-low shooting. You also get Sony's neat Sweep Panorama mode - sweep the camera in an arc, and it takes a slew of continuous pictures, then stitches them together to produce a 202-degree panoramic image. The camera's not cheap, but you'll pocket plenty of change for the better.
