Mirrorless Camera For Video 2014

[Black] I'd been looking at this camera ever since I saw it unveiled at CES 2014. I was primarily interested in having the newest BIONZ sensor, and this is by far the least expensive instance of Sony's newest technology. Being an early adopter aside, the major features that make this a pretty amazing camera are it's lock-on focusing, which makes it infinitely simpler to take video of moving things and the 40x zoom which is actually kind of absurd once you get to play with it. I would absolutely recommend this camera to anyone and I would say that it makes a number of very complicated photo and video techniques incredibly simple to do.

[TTL] This is an exceptional video camera. While the photography of this mirrorless camera is too notch, it’s the video that reigns supreme.

[Full-Frame] All I ever wanted in a Mirrorless Camera.

[0.55 lb] We typically travel with a DSLR, a mirrorless 4K video camera, and one or two snapshot-type fixed lens cameras. Naturally, all take different batteries. With the Watson system (and it is a system) we only need one charger body (multi-voltage for international travel) and a small, thin adapter plate for each battery. Really cuts down on what you need to carry.

[Cage] This cage is absolutely indispensable for an on-the-go shooter, or anyone turning a mirrorless camera into a video rig. It's like the foundation to a house. You want one that's solid, and this one is. Highly recommended.

[End Address] This is a little shotgun mic specifically designed or mirrorless or DSLR video shoots. It's easy to set up and has a low profile. Insert the batteries and you're ready to go. One of the best features is that it turns on when you turn on the camera, or in my case, my little camera-mounted mixer, then shuts off when the camera is off. Sound is clean and clear if you're in a good range from your subject. The added fuzzy wind screen is a bonus!

[f/22] This is my first mirrorless camera after a decade of using Nikon crop DSLRs for my amateur photo and video. I'm really impressed by this little guy. Fast focusing, impressive image quality, superb ergonomics and fantastic video quality - all I was looking for is in it.

[0.085 lb] I seldom shoot video with my mirrorless camera - the scenes I want a video of are handled by my phone. I have to admit I was a bit skeptical about not buying a big name card. My concerns were allayed after the first shoot with the card. I think I could easily hold a weeks worth of vacation photos on the card and still have room for photos when I returned home. The card is fast and, as I mentioned above, LARGE. And the card is substantially less expensive than the big name cards. I've encountered no degradation of any of my photos with the card, and I transfer my photos to my PC flawlessly. I've had no problems with the card and am completely pleased with my purchase.
