    This is a good camera, but I prefer a DSLR body style over this.

    Slow recovery time after taking picture. I first bought a Sony cyber-shot and thought the recovery time was to slow and read the reviews on the alpha a5000. So I put the extra money in for the a5000. But the recovery time is about the same for double the price of the camera.

    For $80 you can get the Nex-6 which may be older but is better in my opinion. No viewfinder, only 1080i video, and poor resolution LED screen.

    Sony's software system is not compatible with Mac or IOS. This is incredibly frustrating because you need to Sony software in order to download any of the apps for specialized shooting (lime lapse, star trail, night shots, etc.)

    The camera is hard to get on the right setting for indoors or out. Have put on auto focus and still not that great. My daughter wanted to keep it because it has wifi. If it was up to me I would exchange it.
