Thank you. I bought the camera yesterday, and all I can say it's that it worth the money. very calitative for it's price. In the past , I used one DSLR photo camera, Canon EOS 7D, but now, I reallised that if you don't intent to make professional photos, you don't need that kind of monster.
I was planning to get this camera. Thanks for mentioning the USB charging. This gets rid of the need to carry additional charging kits. Always good for a travel camera.
Bought it at Aldi for 189 EUR to use as a hidden snapshot camera to complement my Canon D60. Used its creative programs a lot (never did on D60) and I am absolutely satisfied with this camera. Put it in your jeans pocket and take it anywhwere.
Thanks for the review. I just found that the WX500 replaces the WX350 in Sony's lineup. I agree that the apps and the Playmemories app are what set these point and shoot cameras apart from those offered by Nikon and Cannon. I love the fact you can control more than one Sony camera with the Playmemories app and add more functionality to the camera itself.
This was amazing! I’m considering purchasing this one but I’ve been lacking a bit of information! -How long is the average life on the camera when filming? -what type of resolution is it filming in? 1080p? 4K? Thank you for this informative video! You rock!
Thanks man! It does not have 4k video video. Only full HD. When filming the maximum time limit per clip is 29min. Although, battery life if you're just filming I would say is 2-3 hours. Give or take.
John Sison danggg! That’s funny! Thank you for replying, I literally am replying already have purchased this camera due to you. It’s actually in my other hand as I’m replying 😂 ima about to try to film with it! Thank you for the amazing advice!
This is the reason why i bought this camera, it's amazing zoom. I have a sample vlog on my channel using this camera. Though my video is very shaky because i didn't realize that intelligent active is the strongest stabilization mode.
I don't recommend you to buy a new battery - instead u can buy a good power bank and plug the camera to it and enjoy your many hours of video or photo shooting - i use this method on my sony zv - 1and im so happy
+David Mills Unfortunately you can't attach wireless microphones to this camera. The only other option is if you record the audio on an external device and sync it to the video later on in post.
+David Mills There really isn't a compatible brand because there is no mic input BUT the Rode smartlav + will allow you to connect the mic to your smartphone so you can record the audio separately and sync it later.
Just purchased this camera. I don't understand how image size and aspect ratio work. I want to enlarge and create a canvas on line but keep getting the message 'low resolution'. What am i doing wrong?
Do you mean you want to use this as a wallpaper for your pc? If yes, make sure that the aspect ratio is 16:9 and that your picture quality is set to the best setting.
I really love taking videos and photos with this camera. I love the easy way to put the pictures in my phone. it is pure magic. I like your review. great job (y)
For double the price over the 350 imho it’s not double the camera flip screen ? ok but very limited use and an extra 10x on the zoom could be useful but boy are you pushing the ability of the optics to achieve it and retain decent image quality.
I’m using this for vlogs mainly coz it’s th cheapest I can find and it has a flip screen so even tho u said it’s heavy I might buy this I need to buy a tripod and a ring light of some sort of lighting x tysm - sophie
Tripod will be easy to get cause there are so many to choose from but the ring light might be difficult. Keen to see what you come up with for your setup though.
I use this camera to make Stop Motion Animations, and I realised as I slowly moved other objects into the frame (depending what they were), the photos would turn out darker or lighter, how do I turn this auto brightness off, I have searched through the camera but I can't figure it out, there must be an auto brightness setting somewhere, can you help me?
+Karthik Acharya For a compact camera it does very well compared to other cameras on the market. Plus you've got some modes like multi frame noise reduction to help reduce noise for stationary subjects.
Hi John, very nice video :) can you tell me if there is much difference between this camera and the sony wx350 in video quality? the extra zoom and the flip up screen is not much important to me. i just would like to know if there is any major difference in video quality? thank you so much and keep up the awsome work
Hi, I know is already passed two years but I'm looking for cheap compact camera like this one. What would you recommend, Sony WX350, Nikon b500 or sony dsc h400? I don't need big zoom, I'm looking for good quality video especially inside the car, interior, and pic's body car. Mostly in clouding weather, rain (UK).
Sir i m planning to buy a compact under 25k for travelling and for day to day purpose primarily to take photos. Please suggest the best one. Thanks in advance
hey. I plan on using this for filming me at the gym, and potentially starting a TH-cam channel where I'll vlog, do Q and As and stuff like that. the reason I want a point and shoot is for convenience and draw as little attention to me as possible while at the gym. do you think this is good? my budget is very limited
Oh congrats if you do start off a YT channel. For its compactness and because its reasonably cheap. This camera would probably be one of the best ones to go with for sure.
Hey John, I have just watched your reviews on the HX90, RX100M2 and this one, obviously and I am very impressed! Very very good reviews. I am a pretty amateur vlogger/film maker wanting to step it up a notch in terms of camera quality, upgrading from my iPhone to one of the suggested models above. The reason I am looking for a new camera is because in a few weeks I am heading off to Kilimanjaro to trek up the mountain and then go on a safari and am looking for a suitable camera. I'm pretty torn between the WX500 and the HX90 mainly due to the RX being a bit too pricey, and I was wondering which one you would recommend out of the two? By the looks of things the WX500 seems to have a better microphone, but doesn't have a grip on it. Anyway, i'll stop twitter on and let you get back to me haha. Essentially my question is which out of the WX500 and the HX90 would you recommend? :-) (quick last question, how long do the batteries last when recording and how long do they then take to charge back up)
CPLrusty video quality is good. good focus, good image stabilization. but, still pictures are noisy and not so clear. I use this camera to take videos and phone for photos...
Vali Budu what time of day are you taking them... inside/outside. My day inside and outside are awesome, lowlight inside a bit grainy, but that’s not what I need it for. Play around with the camera mode. Plenty of stuff on google.
Great review man! I am planning on getting this camera for Christmas or anytime sooner! I wanted to make sure it had a good microphone quality because I would be using it for vlogging/creating TH-cam videos with it, and really no pictures! Great review again man, subscribed and like! BTW, how do you like the camera still, do you think I should purchase for creating videos? Thanks man!
Bro it will be nice if you could make a vlog about Avchd file format...it's so confusing file format actually... and how to transfer and editing from final cut pro or may be adope premier pro cc....
Good presentation....one Question...Does this model have date and time stamping facility on photos taken... Waiting for ur valuable feed back...Thank u
HELP Thanks for the review. I can't decide between this camera and the Sony Alpha5000, I will be using it for photos and videos equally. I like the ALPHA because of the grip and the wide sensor but I like the 10fps and image stabilization of the WX500, besides this one is cheaper in my country. Which one would you recomend me? Sorry for my english
Thanks for the video! The difference between the "sony dscwx500b.ce3" and the "sony dschx90vb.ce3" is just the viewfinder? Can you make video lapse? Can you add something to improve the audio? Thanks!
Is the viewfinder, the GPS, the control ring on the lens. Those are the main differences. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like time lapse is available for both cameras. There isn't anything you can add to the camera to improved audio. You can record sound separately using an audio device and sync it later on in post but I think that it would be too much effort.
+Roshan Kanesan If its for vlogging, the WX500 is a cheaper option than the HX90, the only thing you would be missing out on the higher model is the pop up viewfinder and the control ring and the grip. If you don't think you need this for vlogging, I think the WX500 is the way to go.
Hi John! Is it possible to take videos in this camera with blurred background? I plan to use this camera for more cinematic shots rather than vlogging. Thanks. :)
Cheers man! Im going to thailand for two and half weeks in 3 weeks so I think I will get this bad boy to bring with me! Don't wanna bring my big DSLR around! Far too big and risky!! But from the looks of it this camera would be perfect for me! Thanks!!
Hi John. Very nice and detailed review. I have a question. Is the flash auto popup or manually controlled via a button? Also If I have to compare this with Nikon S9900 which one would you suggest?
Hi, I'm really confused what kind of camera to buy. I want to start a blog and a vlog. Is this camera good for blogging and vlogging? Or should I get the fujifilm x-a3 instead? Please reply.😁
I have this cámara but my only issue is that when I am shooting a video the image is dark and grainy looking it's not as good quality than the pictures how do I change the settings in the cámara to change that????
Hey John🙂. How are you doing🙂? Tell me something please if you can please i need your help please 🥺🥺🥺, why does the camera sony DSC-WX500 show double screen when you put it in a TV or a monitor screen please let me know please 🥺🥺😔😔😔???
hey john i recenctly got this camera but i dont have a memeory card for it but theres so many to pick from and i know so little about them , which one did u buy ?
They're very similar cameras when it comes to zoom and image quality. The only reason I would go with the HX90 over the WX500 is for the viewfinder and the added grip.
Tks so much for your reply. Please can I also ask you - a couple of the pictures that were taken 8 or so rows back from a stage the faces were blurry. What setting should I have had it on? I tend to have it on intelligent auto and hope for the best. I'm quite a novice with cameras but trying to learn from experience. Tks for your help.
Thank you so much for this video. :) I'm planning to buy this camera to record my videos. I have a few questions, can you help me out here: 1. How much is the maximum storage capacity of the memory card that is supported by the camera? 2. What is the maximum duration I can record a video? 3. Is it possible to record video while connected to the AC charger?
Sony A58 or Sony cybershot dsc wx500? Both the cameras are in my budget. But sony a58 has external mike jack (which is a plus). I am looking for vlogging and pictures. 99% my vlogs will be indoors but from a distance. The rest I will do voiceovers. And pictures will be for my Instagram. Thankyou
Hey I am confused between this camera & an entry level DSLR ( cannon 1300d/Nikon d3300/d3400) the only reason I am avoiding DSLR is that, (1) I don't know much about this cameras [ eg-apeture, shutter speed rest of the options] (2) I am in budget & I have heard that DSLR camera needs servicing every month or something. So plzzzz suggest me what should I do??? & My reason to buy a camera is mostly for taking good enough pictures & decent quality videos as I am planning to open a channel on TH-cam will you plz tell me..??????? 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
With DSLRs. you can always just shoot in Auto and let the camera do all the thinking for you if you don't understand aperture, shutter speed, etc. but it is good to have those options if you feel like experimenting with other types of photography. DSLR cameras don't need to get serviced every month. That's for sure. Unless you don't really take care of your camera, that may be the time you may actually need to get it serviced but I haven't serviced my camera for over a year now. Hope that helps.
The zoom of this camera is wow.
Francisco Hernández DAM, it was awesome
is it good for recording live concert?:)
I just said wow too
Thank you.
I bought the camera yesterday, and all I can say it's that it worth the money. very calitative for it's price.
In the past , I used one DSLR photo camera, Canon EOS 7D, but now, I reallised that if you don't intent to make professional photos, you don't need that kind of monster.
I was planning to get this camera. Thanks for mentioning the USB charging. This gets rid of the need to carry additional charging kits. Always good for a travel camera.
Yay finally!! I've been searching for a good informative video on the Sony WX500 and this has been by far the best! Thanks for that!!
Aw thanks for the compliments! Great to hear my videos are serving their purpose :)
they are definitely good! keep up the vidoes coming :)
When it does not support external mic then hw ds is d best vlog cam ??❓❓
Bought it at Aldi for 189 EUR to use as a hidden snapshot camera to complement my Canon D60. Used its creative programs a lot (never did on D60) and I am absolutely satisfied with this camera. Put it in your jeans pocket and take it anywhwere.

I was thinking of buying this one for my vlogs! Thanks for this great review :)
You're welcome! Let me know how you go :)
i finally bought the HX80, because te WX500 wasn't available. I use it on my vlog channel, its good quality, but when its dark it's a little weird :)
hey are you still using it for your recent videos?
yes but on my vlog channel, not this one, its on AmelieBarbeauVlogs :)
how was the HX80?
3:54 oh god no
=)))
Lmao
My eyes widen as you show its amazing optical zoom.
Needed a new camera for my channel and I just ordered one of these on the strength of your review. Thanks a lot!
This was amazing! I’m considering purchasing this one but I’ve been lacking a bit of information!
-How long is the average life on the camera when filming?
-what type of resolution is it filming in? 1080p? 4K?

@ANZIL Muhammed x2. Please help
Just bought this for my vlogs, really really happy so far! Great Camera.
Once the hunting issue is solved on these tiny cameras then they are all we need (with web browsing abilities of course)
Thanks for the video. How would you say it performs in low-light or night?
I wonder which one is better, the HX60 or WX500.
This is the reason why i bought this camera, it's amazing zoom. I have a sample vlog on my channel using this camera. Though my video is very shaky because i didn't realize that intelligent active is the strongest stabilization mode.
My battery run out in the heat I bought another now the grey protector thing that covers the lens only comes down by half any ideas what´s gone wrong?
I don't recommend you to buy a new battery - instead u can buy a good power bank and plug the camera to it and enjoy your many hours of video or photo shooting - i use this method on my sony zv - 1and im so happy
That’s for this. I just got this camera and your video helped me understand the features better.
Hey! Is the screen touchscreen?
Beauty Spectrum I have the camera and it's not touchscreen but it's a really nice camera... Totally Recommend
I still find this camera,best
Hey John, I owned one of this camera. Can you make some tips on how to use it on low-light area for a better shot? (Eg: Aquatic Underwater World)
i am travelling so which one is best
Canon SX60 HS , Nikon P900 , Sony DSC-HX400V ??
Would you recommend this camera to be my first one for vlogging? Or is there a comparable model out there for less money?
+David Mills For a vlogging camera its definitely a good one to start off with.
One more question. As far as wireless microophones are concerned. In your opinion, which brand would be the most compatible with this model?
+David Mills Unfortunately you can't attach wireless microphones to this camera. The only other option is if you record the audio on an external device and sync it to the video later on in post.
Got it. I figured that. I just thought there might be another way to record wirelessly. Thanks
+David Mills There really isn't a compatible brand because there is no mic input BUT the Rode smartlav + will allow you to connect the mic to your smartphone so you can record the audio separately and sync it later.

You’re one of the newer coments so i’ll ask, how does this 2015 camera hold up to a modern day phone camera? Do you find the quality better?
Hi John, please help me out. Which camera is better? Sony HX90V or the Sony XW800 for vlogging and take pictures during travelling? Thanks heaps!
Both are very similar and will give you the same quality. It really comes down to the hardware. If you want to save a few dollars, go with the WX800.
For double the price over the 350 imho it’s not double the camera flip screen ? ok but very limited use and an extra 10x on the zoom could be useful but boy are you pushing the ability of the optics to achieve it and retain decent image quality.
Catch a cheating man with this camera
Haha umm if that's what you want to use it for, then yeah lol.
Hahahaha Gold! They can run but they can't hide 😂😂
I tought the same 😂😂😂
Hi, what settings are you using for the camera?
Hi John. Great shot. Is it possible to connect a external microphone to this camera? If so, how? Thanks
Hey! I need a camera for making videos for TH-cam. Does this has video auto focus? Canon sx610 or this one. What would you recommend?
thanks John..I'm thinking this over the Canon g7x..because of the zoom. But I think the G7x is better in low light. What do you think?
I’m using this for vlogs mainly coz it’s th cheapest I can find and it has a flip screen so even tho u said it’s heavy I might buy this I need to buy a tripod and a ring light of some sort of lighting x tysm - sophie
Tripod will be easy to get cause there are so many to choose from but the ring light might be difficult. Keen to see what you come up with for your setup though.

I use this camera to make Stop Motion Animations, and I realised as I slowly moved other objects into the frame (depending what they were), the photos would turn out darker or lighter, how do I turn this auto brightness off, I have searched through the camera but I can't figure it out, there must be an auto brightness setting somewhere, can you help me?
It might be best to use manual settings and possibly shoot in continuous lighting and turn off Auto ISO.
Hello, I would like that you solve a doubt I have about choosing this one or the HX80. What should I choose? Thanks.
Great job on the review. Very clear and concise and as importantly...informative..
on my channel there were performances WX500 at night and the zoom month.
I'm thinking of maybe get this and use it as an vlog camera.
How's the low light capabilities? Please reply
+Karthik Acharya For a compact camera it does very well compared to other cameras on the market. Plus you've got some modes like multi frame noise reduction to help reduce noise for stationary subjects.
i do vlogs with the wx500 and its not bad in low light
The zoom is incredible🔥
Hi John, very nice video :) can you tell me if there is much difference between this camera and the sony wx350 in video quality? the extra zoom and the flip up screen is not much important to me. i just would like to know if there is any major difference in video quality? thank you so much and keep up the awsome work
It has a better codec for video which is the XAVCS codec and is a great option to use, especially if you intend on editing your videos.
Does this camera support the external mic for better audio..?
Hi, I know is already passed two years but I'm looking for cheap compact camera like this one. What would you recommend, Sony WX350, Nikon b500 or sony dsc h400?

Hey John, I have just watched your reviews on the HX90, RX100M2 and this one, obviously and I am very impressed! Very very good reviews.

not so good for photos, but great for vlogging

I'm still debating between this and the DSC-HX90V. Other than the OLED viewfinder and the price tag are different,what else makes the cut?
On the WX500 you don't get GPS and the control wheel on the lens of the camera and you lose the grip which has the HX90 has.
got this camera for about a week plus, loving it~
+Desmond Yeo Great to hear! Enjoy it :D

Thank you! 🙏 Appreciate the kind words! 😊
just being a camera for fun. does the DSC-HX90V get me a better picture than the WX500 (night of day).
Thanks man, do you think it does the same job as the RX100 when it comes to video recording?
+Toys&Stories The RX100 should be much better when it comes to video, especially when it comes to low light conditions.
Thanks for the answer, keep up the good work. :)
John Sison Thanks for the answer, keep up the good work. :)
Is there any way of taking photos with the camera without touching it like voice activation, a remote or a 10 second timer or something?

Is it worth the extra money for the flip screen compared to the DSC-HX60V?
+jscarborough89 I would say so, plus you're getting a better lens and a slimmer body.
Hi John. Very nice and detailed review. I have a question. Is the flash auto popup or manually controlled via a button? Also If I have to compare this with Nikon S9900 which one would you suggest?
+Rahul Satpute You need to manually pop up the flash by sliding the switch on top of the camera.
hi :) sony ws 500 or samsung nx mini, which would u recommend? thanks!
+diana azx Hi. If you want better quality, go with the Samsung and if you want more zoom, go with the WX500.

I am gonna use for travelling, and sometimes vloging.
i think the only diff of two is view finder.. i u not concern about that
I'm poor I can't buy one and i need a compact cam for videos en TH-cam
How does the camera do when shooting at night? Could be just on the streets or a brighter night-life area.
+infearitrust For a compact and in that price range it will do an alright job. The RX100 would be a better option although it will be more expensive.

Hi, do you prefer Sony hx90v or this one Sony wx500? And please tell me your after thoughts too thanks!!!
They're very similar cameras when it comes to zoom and image quality. The only reason I would go with the HX90 over the WX500 is for the viewfinder and the added grip.
Would you go with a Sony Wx350 or Wx500? I'll be using it for vlogging
I would go with the WX500 for vlogging.
Tks so much for your reply. Please can I also ask you - a couple of the pictures that were taken 8 or so rows back from a stage the faces were blurry. What setting should I have had it on? I tend to have it on intelligent auto and hope for the best. I'm quite a novice with cameras but trying to learn from experience. Tks for your help.
Thank you so much for this video. :)
I'm planning to buy this camera to record my videos.
I have a few questions, can you help me out here:
1. How much is the maximum storage capacity of the memory card that is supported by the camera?
2. What is the maximum duration I can record a video?
3. Is it possible to record video while connected to the AC charger?
Imagine you're filming something for a youtube video or something and you want to show a product upclose, does it focus automatically on the product?
it has auto focus
planning to buy camera.Thanks for sharing the reviews.
Just picked one up Whats the best sd card to use for normal photos and video?
Sony A58 or Sony cybershot dsc wx500? Both the cameras are in my budget. But sony a58 has external mike jack (which is a plus). I am looking for vlogging and pictures. 99% my vlogs will be indoors but from a distance. The rest I will do voiceovers. And pictures will be for my Instagram. Thankyou
Should I buy a Canon elph 360 hs or Sony wx500? Thank you!
WX500 :)
Hey I am confused between this camera & an entry level DSLR ( cannon 1300d/Nikon d3300/d3400) the only reason I am avoiding DSLR is that,
(1) I don't know much about this cameras [ eg-apeture, shutter speed rest of the options]
(2) I am in budget & I have heard that DSLR camera needs servicing every month or something.
So plzzzz suggest me what should I do???
& My reason to buy a camera is mostly for taking good enough pictures & decent quality videos as I am planning to open a channel on TH-cam will you plz tell me..??????? 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
With DSLRs. you can always just shoot in Auto and let the camera do all the thinking for you if you don't understand aperture, shutter speed, etc. but it is good to have those options if you feel like experimenting with other types of photography. DSLR cameras don't need to get serviced every month. That's for sure. Unless you don't really take care of your camera, that may be the time you may actually need to get it serviced but I haven't serviced my camera for over a year now. Hope that helps.
John Sison thank you so much sir really appreciate your advice thanks for helping 🙏
Thanks for sharing this. Just bought one yesterday and I'm loving it.
