    *Corrected: Thank you Armir Gashi!
    1. It can shoot FULL 1920x1080 HD if your aspect ratio is set to 16:9 instead of 3:2
    2. It can shoot up to 24 mbps not limited to 17mbps - No blu ray necessary.

  • @armirgashi4236
    @armirgashi4236 ปีที่แล้ว +79

    If you choose a 16:9 aspect ratio you get full 1920 x 1080 video and you don't need to burn it to a blueray you can just ignore that and record. It just mentions that because at the time the camera came out it was normal to do that

    Thank you for this video.
    I bought a A5000 for 30 Euro's on Marketplace a few days ago and used it for landscape photography (manual settings). It is at it's best with clouds and reflections in the water. It captures the light beautifully and is definitely an addition to my camera collection.

    While the a6000 is better in pretty much everything, the a5000 simply just FEELS better at the hands.
    I believe that the a5000 is an amazing option if you do a lot of street photography, it really feels that it encourages you to just shoot, and be more creative.
    On the other hand, the a6000 has all the tools you could need if you want to dive into doing work as a photographer (the EVF, the two dials and like twice as many buttons). It does perform decently well in low-light situations, specially with an f/1.8 lens.

    • @MattyDCCollins

    I already own one of these and after it sat on a shelf for the last five years, I wanted to figure out what I might use it for in the future. This video helped a lot. Thank you, fellow Canadian!!
    Also, had a quick look through your Instagram and I saw your Korea pictures.... I was on the exact same hilly street in Bukchon as you just a few weeks ago! Except when I was there, it was full of people.... lucky you to get some clear shots.

    I use a5100's and have several of them. I have paid an average of 250 usd each -- it's so close in price, I wouldn't buy the a5000. At 250 each, I would choose the a5100 over the ZV-E10. a5100 has Phase Detect AF, flip-up 180degree screen, touch to focus, SD Card on the side instead of battery compartment The 1080p is really good. Looks same as an a6000. But for the a5000, probably wouldn't do it. Cheers.

    Hey. I'm currently looking at a Sony A5000 and Sony A58, they cost the same for me with a kit lens as a complete beginner. They are fairly similar. The A58 is not mirorrless but it does have a hot shoe mount, microphone input, sensor shift stabilization and has the exact same sensor and it uses phase detection for autofocus and has an in body AF motor, and a better processor allowing for 1080p30 video instead of 1080p24 and has an electronic view finder. However the A5000 does seem to score better in DXOmark and is significantly lighter and is a mirorless camera. Which one should I get?

    • @MattyDCCollins
      @MattyDCCollins  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Pretty easy decision if it was me. I’d get the a5000 because of the e mount lens type the A58 uses and obsolete A mount. If you need the viewfinder save a bit more and get the a6000, good luck :)

      do you need long record times? I think the a5000 is 15 mins and the 5100 is 30 minutes - you could record your audio externally and then sync it with either of the cameras in 1080p :)

I had been thinking about it for years to get a system camera. My only other camera us an old 4 year old $200 Xiaomi Redmi Note.
