The a5000 can transfer images and video, and supports remote shutter functionality with other smartphones and tablets using the Sony PlayMemories Mobile application. The rear LCD screen is tiltable and can be flipped up to 180 degrees. The camera has a 16-50mm kit lens that can be used to record video. Sony offers the a5000 in black or silver colors. Sony plans to ship the a5000 in March for $600 in a kit with the 16-50mm zoon lens. Another lens will launch in March featuring 55-210mm zoom for $350.SlashGear
