Total amatuer photographer.
 Love the auto features while I navigate my way around the rest of the settings.
Someone who knows what they're doing would be snapping away from the off.

Great features

Recently purchased - still getting to grips with the features as this compact camera is loaded. Will primarily use it as a streaming camera as the image clarity is perfect for my needs - nice one Sony

Great Camera - ideal for content creation

I brought this camera just a few days ago and it is amazing!
Night Photography such as long exposures are amazing and the quality of the video is very good.

Amazing camera!

the camera is brilliant, unlike your customer services !!!

brilliant

This is an excellent little camera that still provides an immense value, even in 2020. The only gripe i have with it is the heating issue when you are recording for a longer period of time and the annoying smooth skin feature that cannot be turned off in movie mode while you are outputting the signal to lets say and external recorder like obs...

My A5100 camera review

Thanks for this Camera. Really happy to have it. I use it for my Church live streaming. Really useful.

Really help for my Church Live Streaming

No longer connects to my phone. Everytime I want to transfer a picture I have to manually do it.

Phone connection

Overall good camera with lots of features. However I have trouble connecting it to my Android TV for viewing photos. When checked with the dealer, they couldn't able to assist.

Good Camera but Connectivity Issues

I am very happy with how easy to use the camera is, especially for a beginner like me.

Great compact camera

Smart compact mirrorless camera that you can use with any scenes. It deliver stunning images quality and easy to carry in your handbag.

Affordable price for the great mirrorless camera

Lightweight, easy to use, lots of customizable features. Oh and it takes unreal picture and video

Great for novice photographers and experienced!

took several settings runs to get it SLIGHTLY less grainy in movie mode but this was sold to me as the "perfect streaming DSLR" and that was a total lie

bought for streaming. the HDMI output is grainy

I am really satisfied with this camera. I had an a6000 and this is maybe even better for video. It only doesnt have the VF, which I have on my a6400 so I don’t need it here. Amazing how small and portable this camera is, and it shoots amazing video in 1080p.

Really amazed

Great deception! I'm unable to use this camera outside when the sun is shining or even with good luminosity. I cannot see anything on the screen.

Useless oustide with sun

I bought this as a treat for myself. Wanted to take family pictures and vlog my craft. As a beginner there's a lot to learn and info to retain. Pictures are clear and crisp and that's my #1 requirement.

While this isn’t a DSLR this is absolutely a perfect point and shoot camera and great for vloggers

Perfect Quick Light Camera

Bought this as a replacement for damaged camera whilst on holiday. Chosen because it was easier (for my wife) to use than a standard DSLR but with similar features. Have not been disappointed and still have so much to learn about camera. Excellent photos so far.

Nice lightweight camera with interchangable lenses

The Camera was being offered at a discount (which I found hard to ignore) but I have been delighted with it since as it seems to offer all that I was seeking. I wanted to upgrade from the compact basic camera that I used to take on holidays and the Digital SLR that I used on special occasions. This camera seems to do it all and I have the options to purchase or use other lenses.

It is light and comfortable to hold

I am usually a Nikon guy but have been looking for a decent compact for ages. This camera might not be cutting edge but I can tell you it's easy to use, small, light and produces amazing quality images. I looked at a LOT of cameras and for the price, this can't be touched. 

Highly recommended.

Great quality little camera at a good price.

?he first step to learning photography, settings and lenses and this device gives you that.

2019 and still good

It a great camera for every day or night. Not much of a difference from 6000 models. Easy to use that of course not on auto mode.

Great photo shoots

The main issue of capturing blur images and fast-moving videos are all gone!

Able to capture pictures/videos with fast movement

Very pleased to get this camera - perfect for my travels with little fuss.

Wonderful pictures in a nice compact package

I bought last month and i am so happy. Easy to use and great picture

Bought the camera a couple months ago and I really fallin' in love with it. It's a best bang for my bucks. The only thing I really need from a5100 is a viewfinder, that would be perfect.

Everything's good, but..

I can shoot beautiful moment with my family and my friends

Moment with dear Family

I’ve never really been into photography, but I wanted something better than my phone camera to take away on holiday. I’ve always been put off DSLRs because thought they were too big to carry around, but when I came across Mirrorless Cameras I thought they seemed ideal for what I wanted. I read a lot of reviews online and this one seemed like it would be best for me with a combination of its small size and good reviews. I couldn’t be happier with it. I expected it to take much longer for me to get used to using it, but the automatic modes make it really easy to take great photos with very little effort while I’ve found the manual setting very intuitive and they give a great deal of freedom to customise and experiment. The camera itself feels very solid and the build quality is great. The app that lets you transfer photos to iOS devices is also very good, though it was a bit fiddly to set up the first time as the instructions weren’t that clear. Most importantly I have been very impressed with the picture quality, the photos are full of detail and look fantastic.

Excellent, even better than I had expected

As an older Sony model I was surprised by the quality of the shots I took.A bit diddley to set up due to lack of buttons and the menus not accessible with the touch screen.But the size and quality makes this camera a must for travellers. Love it.

Great Quality

only problem: menu system too complicated and overheating for the rest is an amazing bang for the buck!

amazing camera!

I bought this camera in 2014 and still using it up till now. It perfects to bring along during travel, it’s lightweight and very simple to use (as sometimes we need to ask someone else to take our photos). Great for selfies too. I’m so in love with this camera. Thinking to buy new camera but others lack in something that this camera has. As some of the new cameras doesn’t have the wireless function which is very helpful as you want to transfer the photos ASAP and upload on your social medias *wink* And as for me, the weight is so important as when you’re travelling obviously you doesn’t want to bring something heavy and bulk.
