Designed for easy handling
All the power and flexibility of interchangeable-lens camera photography is yours while travelling light with the new α5000 – a heavyweight performer that won’t weigh you down - the world’s lightest interchangeable-lens digital camera.

Create stunning photos and movies
Capture gorgeous detail and create attractive defocusing with a 20.1-megapixel Exmor™ APS HD CMOS sensor. Sony’s high-speed BIONZ X image processing engine faithfully reproduces textures and details in real time, as seen by the naked eye. Sensitivity settings as high as ISO 16000 let you shoot dimly lit scenes without a flash.

Full HD movie shooting
Simply press the MOVIE button to start recording a Full HD movie in AVCHD format. Choose fast 60i/50i (NTSC/PAL) for super-smooth results or a slower 24p/25p (NTSC/PAL) setting to recreate that traditional cinema look. Fast autofocusing ensures great results, while Dolby Digital Stereo Creator delivers precision audio to match.

Perfectly composed self-portraits
Now you can easily capture yourself striking the perfect pose. Simply flip the LCD screen up and fine-tune the composition. Clear Image Zoom maintains clarity when zooming and Soft Skin Effect intelligently smoothes any wrinkles or dullness.

A pleasure to use
Shooting is simple thanks to convenient features like a clear, bright LCD screen that tilts up to 180 degrees. There’s also a built-in pop-up flash too, and a zoom lever specially designed for easy one-handed zooming.

Share images with one touch
There’s no cables or hook-ups. Just place your camera against an NFC smartphone or tablet to make a connection with Wi-Fi. Then you can instantly share photos and MP4 videos. A preinstalled Smart Remote Control Embedded gives you control of your camera from a smartphone or tablet.

Total creative control
Superior Auto and Intelligent Auto mode makes great photography as simple as pointing and shooting. Photo Creativity mode offers easy adjustment of Background Defocus, Brightness, Colour and Vividness. You can also add Picture Effects and view them in real time, or download new editing and shooting features with PlayMemories Camera Apps.
