Yes, it's quite a nice camera, bought it in 2018, and though I also use an A6400, the portability and that zoom in with the telephoto trigger is great. The flippable screen is also good to take photos at floor level without laying on the floor. Great for macro, only major flaw for me is the lack of a viewfinder.

Very informative review. Would love to see you up your microphone game when recording reviews like this. Cheers!

Iam confused how to send videos from this cam to android phone

Is it suitable for sport photography / fast moving objects too?

Yes this camera is definitely suitable for sports photography, you'll likely need a telephoto lens for more zoomed in shots, but the camera itself is up to the job!

I just got it today :)

Farwizah how is it ? Have you uploaded your photos taken by your a5100 to any of your social media accounts ?

@@hiden1980 i have not. For some reason my handphone cannot connect to the handphone and my laptop couldn't read the images. But for video all is okay. I will try uploading today and take a look if i did :) and also i recorded video for youtube. Keep in mind that all my video don't have a good lighting and i did not colour grade anything

Farwizah what about photos ? Did you take photo with your a5100 ? How are they ?

Sony has to make a new camera in the a5xxx series.

Agreed! After so many new a6X00 cameras last year I'm hoping for an a5200(?) In 2020.

How can you keep so thin wide monitor so low? You put a high strain on your neck, by constantly looking down. Rise it to eye level.

Sony A 5100 or the Nikon D5300 which would be a better choice for a beginner?

I haven't used the Nikon D5300 so can only talk about the a5100 from experience. The a5100 is very compact and has great performance for both video and photos. The Nikon is bigger (DSLR rather than mirrorless) so depends what type of camera you're interested in.

I badly want a DSLR camera, so last 18th February my mom dad surprised with this camera,😅. I upset first than I'm happy because of mom dad.

These are fairly tricky to source at a decent price.
