I'm happy to share the news that our friend, photographer Ted Johnson, has been working to develop precision engineered accessories for the Sony NEX-5. His company currently has three accessories available for sale.

I know that if I were an NEX shooter, the JTec Cold Shoe Viewfinder Mount would be high on my shopping list.

JTec announces three precision machined components for the Sony NEX-5 Interchangeable Lens Camera
First is our NEX-5 Cold Shoe Viewfinder Mount for mounting an optical viewfinder of your choice. It allows you to use your favorite prime lens (with appropriate adapter) with an optical viewfinder, allowing the quick framing required in capturing event or street scenes. No longer will you have to hold the camera at arms length to frame a scene. Your camera is at your eye, promoting a steadier and more accurately framed shot. The phrase “f8 and be there” is now a reality with our NEX-5 Cold Shoe adapter.
In order to take best advantage of the capabilities of the NEX-5, especially the Sweep Panorama® mode, JTec is also introducing two ways to to attach the camera to a tripod: a simple NEX-5 Camera Plate Tripod Mount and an NEX-5 L-Bracket Tripod Mount.
Our JTec Camera Plate allows your camera to be mounted to any Arca-Swiss style tripod head, and makes convenient landscape panoramas possible.
The JTec L-Bracket also allows panoramas to be taken in portrait orientation, and gives you the option to tripod mount your camera for taking high quality portraits.
