SONY HAS IT BACK FOR CAMERA AND PHOTO

I consider myself a beginner in photography, although I've been an amateur photographer for decades. So I wanted a good DSLR (smart) camera that could take good photos and videos without having to worry too much about setup. After extensive research, I chose the Sony A65V for a number of reasons: first, the price has stabilized compared to other cameras on the market with the same features over the past year, second, it supports all my old Minolta lenses, which means that I don't have to spend hundreds of dollars to buy lenses. Sweet. When I received the camera, I immediately charged the battery for about 6 hours at a time and then attached a Minolta lens to it while studying. various functions in the menu. When I had enough knowledge about most of the features, I took it outside and started taking pictures with different settings including using GPS, which is a good feature to impress your friends (laughs). I found this camera to be lightweight, easy to carry, and ergonomic for my large hands, meaning I can reach every camera button while looking through the viewfinder. The images are clear, colourful, lively, you could say postcard quality. I also did a 30 minute video at the Epcot Center of a Choir that turned out pretty well. I'm still evaluating the camera as we speak, but for now I have to say I'm very happy with its performance. I will update this review if I come across anything negative in the future. Would I recommend this camera to a friend? YES SIR. Absolutely.

Pros
  • Nice design
Cons
  • I'll write later
