Sony announces A5000 mirrorless camera, coming in March for $600

Sony is killing off its NEX camera brand, but don't think there'll be a gaping whole in its camera line up. The company announced at CES 2014 a new A5000 mirrorless camera with a 20-megapixel APS-C sensor.

In typical Sony fashion it's a small camera, cutting down on the extra and going for what matters most, taking pictures. On the back of the camera you'll find a tilting screen for those weirdly situated shots and a few buttons. On the front, there's an e-mount for an assortment of interchangeable lenses to meet your needs. 

The A5000 features both Wi-Fi and NFC, and Sony claims it's the smallest and lightest interchangeable lens camera with Wi-Fi on the market.

"Packing DSLR imaging power into an incredibly small and light package, our new A5000 is the ultimate 'everyday shooter' that will appeal to a wide range of customers," said Neal Manowitz, director of the alpha interchangeable lens camera division at Sony. 

The Sony A5000 will be available in March 2014 in silver, black and white for about $600 in a kit with a 16-50mm motorized zoom lens. The new, black-finish E 55-210mm zoom lens will be available in March for roughly $350.
