I'm trying to figure out if the guy there used post-production slow motion, or if that was shot with some specialized camera.
Considering those shots have lots of moving detail and no real smearing I'd say its probably in camera slowmo. Maybe 120fps. RED Epic maybe??

Well the NEX5 shoots in an 8bit 420 compressed codec. The same as all of the NEX range including the FS700. The BMPCC shoots in 10bit 422 ProRes or 12bit RAW. So the images of the BMPCC are less compressed, more colour info and have more dynamic range. But to get the camera price down BM have compromised on high frame rates. Win some, loose some.

As above. The image quality of the NEX-6 in video mode it the same as the NEX-5 and similar to the FS700 ( tho the FS700 has more processing power and has the benefit of Cinegamma).
It's 8bit 420 compressed. Less colour info than the BMPCC.
Horses for courses as they say...
