Didn't have longer zoom
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned the camera--never used because it didn't have the zoom I wanted. My SX 740 wasn't working so I picked up this Sony because BB store sales said it had a 50x zoom--it has a **24 x 70mm***. All other features were what I was looking for: fully articulating screen, 1" sensor, ISO to 12800 and I like Sony picture quality. Recommend if this is what you're looking for--don't trust BB site or confirm what sales people say.

The best camera for amateurs to look professional
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this camera it’s honestly a really good camera for vlogging and for taking pictures for blogging! It’s the underdog to the cannon gx7 for sure doesn’t have a flash so you have to buy a light but it had a light/mic holder built in very nicely on the top of it! Quality is perf! And this camera is definitely worth it! Price, quality, size, weight, and design… all 100% perfect!

Amazing camera
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased this camera to no longer use my iPhone for videos that go on my YouTube channel. I researched it a lot before purchasing and it is an amazing camera. I took it recently on a family vacation trip to Mexico and the camera quality is superb. The functionality and practicality of it is amazing for the price. The camera is easy to use. One draw back is if you get any kind of water or exposed to humidity, you're going to have to deal with a foggy lens until it dries up. The camera does not have the ability to mount other lenses but if you're shooting for vlogs and non zooming videos, it works amazing

Best spur of the moment vlogging camera! Best auto
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera is amazing! Autofocus is SICK! I make films for a living and love this as a side vlogging spur of the moment camera! A few quirks though. The 1.8 though, while bright has the depth of field more like an f5. But if you are ok with that, awesome! If you're shooting in ia for video, be warned that the auto shutter kind of goes wonky and plays back clips too fast if you move the camera around too fast. But once you know the quirks, it's amazing! Most convenient camera ever! Purchased for in the moment vlogging shots so I love it! If you vlog though, use a selfie stick rather than the optional accessory... It's worth it and will greatly open up your shots.

Highly Portable and discreet
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been vlogging for the last 2 years with an a7iii and 16-35mm f4. It is a great camera to vlog with but has its drawbacks. The a7iii is large and quickly draws attention. If you are looking for an excellent vlogging camera that is bit more discrete than this camera might work for you. The biggest drawbacks are the 5min. recording maximum and the 24mm wide angle. If you extend your arm the 24mm is definitely manageable but the 5 minute recording time is something that you really have to be pay attention to. It will shot off before you realize it has happened. Cool camera. If you are really bored please check out my vlog on YouTube - Stories from the Bay. Cheers Ian.

Great all around camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a Bday present for my daughter who is really into photography and her boyfriend does some professional photography as well. It’s a great all around camera that takes good outside photos and video and inside as well under lower light conditions. My daughter is very pleased with the quality of the images and that it’s compact enough so she doesn’t always have to lug around her large digital SLR all the time now. It would have been nice if it came with an SD card but outside of that, no complaints so far.
