Description

The world's smallest and lightest interchangeable lens camera, the ILCE-5000 features a 20.1 effective megapixel Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor and powerful BIONZ X image processor for pro performance. A 180° tiltable LCD screen lets you experiment with new angles and shots.

  • 20.1 MP Exmor HD APS sensor

    Get detail and enlargements. Thanks to the large 20.1 megapixel APS-C sensor size and Sony Exmor APS HD CMOS technology, the camera achieves high resolution and DSLR quality images with no penalty in low-light sensitivity or sensor noise.
  • BIONZ X image processing engine

    Expect high quality results with Sony's processing engine: truer color rendering, better noise reduction and fast burst mode shooting.
  • Low light situations not a problem

    Built-in pop-up flash in a compact camera body is appropriate when an extra burst of light is needed to get the shot. Combine with high ISO sensitivity - from 100 to 16000 ISO - to enable shooting in just about any setting.
  • Face detection/Smile shutter

    Set the a5000 to recognize faces and smiles. Face Detection locates up to eight faces in a composition then adjusts exposure, white balance and other settings based on these faces. Smile Shutter - adjustable in three levels - automatically takes a shot when smiles in the scene are detected.
  • Full HD 1080/60i/24p or 1080/30p MP4 movies

    Record high quality Full HD video in either 60i or 24p frames per second. Records in your choice of 60i/24p Blu-Ray quality AVCHD format or in PC-friendly 1080/30p MP4 format.
  • Convenient Power zoom lens with motor zoom lever and body control

    A convenient zoom lever on the body of the camera allows for effortless one-handed operation and smooth zooming even when shooting self-portraits, bringing compact camera convenience to the realm of interchangeable-lens models.
  • Auto Object Framing fills the frame with your subject

    Give your photos a professional look with Auto Object Framing. Featuring advancements like two-person portrait capability along with Face Detection and Tracking Focus, Auto Object Framing not only turns ordinary photos into stunning compositions but does so automatically recognizing the scene then cropping accordingly.
  • Up to 420 Shots of battery life

    Take up to 420 shots on a single charge with Sony lithium ion Stamina battery power. Sony's InfoLITHIUM battery system enables you to see the per cent of power remaining, so you can keep shooting in confidence.
  • Beautifully composed self-portraits made easy

    The a5000's tiltable LCD screen flips up 180 degree to make shooting self-portraits a snap. Include other people, experiment with interesting angles or shoot against famous landmarks. When you press the shutter, the camera does all the work.
