As much as i love my D5100, i'm finding one thing that is keeping this camera from being perfect. I love to use Live View when taking pictures of my 12 week old daughter, but the time between pressing the shutter button and the picture being taken is just a tad too slow when using live view, as a result i regularly have missed/blurry shots of her.
As a result, I'm thinking about going mirrorless so i can use the live view all the time and snap quick pictures the whole time. I also wouldnt mind something a bit more pocketable (a reason i looked at switching a few months back as well), though some of the lenses can still be big.
Is this my best option? Would like to stay under $800 for everything, currently looking at the Sony NEX-5R
