Revainrating 5 out of 5

Still great for new photographers or as a backup.

Camera still working years later. Solid for beginners or as a backup camera. It's a crop sensor, which is good. It's a little dated when it comes to video capabilities. If you want to record videos and photos, this might not be the best option. It lacks 4K video and the microphone isn't very good. But if you only want it for good photos, this is a great option. As they are no longer made this could become a rarity in the world of photography.

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • Can be damaged

Beware of this camera!

It decides how the image is rotated and it's very hard, if not impossible, to tell how each application will interpret its results. Images in windows that appear normal will appear distorted on the website when you upload them. Several different photo editing programs did not produce consistent results. I sent a message to the camera's MFG telling me that the rotation information is built into the camera's hardware and CANNOT be disabled or adjusted. "USE" elsewhere will have undefined results.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Compatibility

Overheated, Revain returns AFK.

Bought because the description made me feel warm and fluffy because of the 90 day money back guarantee on 'refurbished' items. I have spoken to Revain via chat, phone or email no fewer than a dozen times about a refund to my account, including this one with no support for this camera. They didn't even acknowledge it. So I currently have a white a6000 which I ordered from here, it's clean and looks very nice. However, it overheats. Please note that I know how to troubleshoot and this is not user

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • No mandatory form
