Sony Introduces the World’s Lightest Interchangeable-lens Digital Camera1, with Built in Wi-Fi and NFC
a5000 offers DSLR-style quality and creative power without weighing you down

I just bought the Sony NEX3 (in pink) not long ago and mentioned it on Instagram! Had some people telling me what a great choice i made to get that camera. When i had a chance to get my hands on this new Sony a5000 i was so happy because this is a "better" version and it comes with build in Wi-Fi.

Nowadays, most bloggers take pictures using their cameras then transfer to their phone via Wi-Fi. Which would explain why some bloggers have pictures which are so much clearer and sharper. A camera with the Wi-Fi function is a MUST for me because when i travel. I prefer to capture everything using my camera because it takes higher quality images than my phone. And when i want to post it on Instagram, i can just send it to my phone directly (no internet connection is required, the Wi-Fi for Camera to Phone works like "Bluetooth") instead of transferring to my laptop and uploading online (so troublesome!). Gone are the days i take a picture with my camera and then take out my phone to take a picture to Instagram.

The Sony a5000 takes super awesome pictures! I love how it automatically blurs backgrounds (this function can also be adjusted/disabled). It is really easy to use too! Plus, like a DSLR, you can change the lens.

THE BEST THING ABOUT IT?


It's totally a Selfie Camera. I can't remember the last time i owned a camera without a flip screen. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST FOR SOMEONE LIKE ME! Tip: Use the Soft Skin Effect which automatically smoothen wrinkles and dullness if you want to look prettier. I like that the effect doesn't make you look "too fake" either and it is still sharp. There are some cameras with beauty mode which makes you glow so much it makes you look too doll-like and fake. There's one really popular selfie camera a lot of bloggers use and when i see their pictures i just know they used that camera cus of the "over glow".
