    I love my new camera so very much. It is easy to use. You can also pick up lenses that are compatible easily for not a whole lotta cash on Amazon. I would definitely recommend this camera to beginners.

    I am a regular DSLR user and want to try mirror less compact camera with interchangeable lenses feature. Sony A5000, A5100, A6000 and new A6300 are top lines among same categories. Sony is famous on its sensor tech. A6000 gains lots of praises. As an early version, A5000 is not as excellent as A6000, but it is still worthy considering the price I paid. Pros: light weight; interchangeable lenses, fitting all Sony mirror less cameras; flip LCD good for selfies. Cons: If you focus something in the middle, edges of photos not focused well. Default jpeg output not that good, compared to APS-C or full frame DSLR. No viewfinder, frequently using LCD consumes lots of battery power. No individual battery charger. All in all, it is still a good option if you don't pay more.

    I prefer my SLR however this is a gift to my wife with the intent to get her an easy to use camera a level above the point and shoot. She wanted to have a good camera for some special trips we are taking. She likes it.
