Killer $350 Vlogging Camera and Lens Setup

For those who’re on the lookout for a stable little vlogging digicam and lens you must take a look at the Sony a5000! That is most likely the perfect vlogging digicam on a price range with exception to at least one single fault…

This digicam and lens combo is sort of excellent.
You have got a extremely stable APS-C sensor supplying you with respectable low mild efficiency and nice shallow depth of discipline. The flip up display is among the greatest I’ve seen on cameras permitting you to EASILY verify framing, publicity and focus.
The 16-50mm has stabilization (OSS) and at 16mm is ideal for arms size filming. For Sony cameras, that is most likely the perfect vlogging lens on the market for the value.

Lastly, the not so good things. Actually the one draw back to the digicam is the audio. There isn’t a option to plug in a microphone leaving us with 2 choices:

We will use the interior microphones which you’ll be able to hear within the video. This isn’t optimum as we don’t have guide audio however as I talked about, I do get pleasure from not worrying about sound and specializing in filming. For informal filming I’ve no downside with this.

The Second sound choice is to make use of your cellphone with the Lav microphone I linked to above. In case you have a sensible cellphone you should use a free recording app and that $12 mic and also you’re achieved!

Both means, I’ve actually loved utilizing this digicam for vlogging and I shoot extra BECAUSE OF it’s limitations.
