Great camera for beginner
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the size and looks of this camera. It can fit right in my purse compared to other DSLR's. I am still trying to figure out most of the special features. I have noticed the colors are more vibrant for landscape pictures. The flip out screen is super nice to use as well. I love that feature. It is also a huge benefit to have wifi.

I would recommend this to a friend Difficult transferring files using wifi
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I mostly love this camera; however, I always have difficulties transferring the files to the computer using wifi features. Most of the time it is very slow and skips files sometimes. You will also need an interchangeable lens you need to be provided a cover to protect the camera body and the lens when they are detached. Sony should have included the covers as part of the camera package. Overall, it's a bit of too expensive.

I would recommend this to a friendMore funcions than required
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The camera is great, but has too many funcions to figure out without a specialist to help with. Not a DIY camera.

Nice entry lightweight camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a nice entry lightweight camera. I got it as a step up my iphone camera for hiking photos. While the pictures aren't as good from a full size entry DSLR, it's a lot smaller and lighter, saving precious space/weight on my hikes (Ounces equal pounds and pounds equal pain)
I would recommend this to a friend Good not Great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have to be careful with the lens cover - no way to hold it / hang it. Sony really needs to send out replacement covers with a provision to hold it. Not as small as it sounds - quite heavy and bulky.

Great Camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this camera for my blog pictures. Was originally going to get the a5100 but this camera was open box so I got this instead. Takes great photos the only thing is that I've had it for 4 months and it stopped connecting to my computer. Yes I can use the SD card but plugging it in was slightly easier.

Smaller than DSLR, Same Quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Went with the mirrorless camera over the DSLR, mainly due to size. The picture quality is superb, and I now love bringing my camera with me! The battery does run out faster, since it doesn't have a view finder - make sure you pack a spare, or charge your camera on the go!
I would recommend this to a friend Lots of features!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great camera, but make sure to read up on the features or watch some youtube videos to get the most out of it!
