I would recommend this to a friend Great for vlogging and streaming
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great camera and it is worth it over your phone. I also use it for streaming and recording videos with obs. It has a feature to use as a webcam with just usb at 540p but I use it with elgato cam link to get up to 4K output. Picture quality is well worth the price.

I am obsessed with this camera... despite
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera is all the rage right and with good reason... I think if your using it for photography and video's (not vlogging) is far superior for the price... The color science is amazing... You have to get to know you camera and definitely play with the setting. Customizing is recommend but out of the box is great too. I would consider myself an intermediate photographer....
I would recommend this to a friendThis is a phenomenal little camera!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a phenomenal little camera! I bought it for my fiancé because the a6000 series with interchangeable lenses were too much of a hassle for her. constantly switching lenses, but this has worked wonders for her. Point and shoot, internal stabilization, as well as internal nd filter. This is an awesome camera.

Beginner Friendly!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera is perfect for any beginner. I started recording videos in no time with this Sony digital camera. Some features I especially like are the wind screen attachment, and the ability to change the screen position. The camera is easy to use on your own, or for recording events.

Best beginner's camera
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome quality, and very simple ease of use. I have used it for video recording events, and a handful of pictures. The Auto settings are great for beginners, and many adjustable options for intermediate shooters. The flip around screen is a very nice feature. Mic attachment/cover is a bit cheap, but expected from Sony. Otherwise, sound and video quality are sharp!

Packed with features
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera does it all. Crisp 4K quality videos and good photos as well all in a compact frame that fits in your pocket. As you've probably already read, the main downsides are that the lens isn't as wide as other cameras and the battery life isn't ideal. I think these are easy trade offs for everything else you're getting at a great price point.

Packs a quality punch in a small package
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great quality for the price. Used as a b-roll cam for A7III and it stands up very well. Using external power, it can run in 4K for over an hour without overheating indoors.

Great Camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a camera for photographing inventory for our store. I was hesitant about purchasing this camera without a flash, but the salesman convinced me that it would take great pictures even in low light situations. I'm very happy with my purchase. Needed a lightweight camera because DSLR camera was too heavy for taking thousands of pictures per day!

Awesome
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have not owned cameras before but it’s perfect for me. I’ve learned to use manual settings and adjustments for when I upgrade to full frame cameras. Camera is targeted for vloggers and it works well. However it crops in too much when using ibis. That can be solved using a gimbal. Battery life is too short though. Invest in buying 2 or 3 more batteries

Great Compact Camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Has bright aperture and decent portrait zoom range of 24-70mm. Great for travel use overall. Wish it had a small flash to make it slightly more versatile for night photography. menus slightly confusing for those new to the Sony ecosystem.
