SonyAlpha ILCE-5000 Mirrorless Digital Camera w/ 16-50mm Lens (20.1 MP, DSLR, Black)

Q: Looking for a zoom lens. Does this camera support any inexpensive lens adapters and lenses for at least 14-20x zoom?

Let me answer this in parts. Zoom:When a point and shoot lists zoom as 14-20x, it is calculating this off of the minimum and maximum focal lengths. Mirrorless (like this one) and DSLR cameras do not measure lenses this way, they stick to only using millimeters of focal length. So when a point and shoot says 10x, that really doesn't mean anything unless you know the minimum focal length. If the minimum focal length is 10mm, then the zoom distance is 100mm (10x10mm). The best budget zoom lens is the Sony 55-210 available without an adapter for this system reaches 210mm, but has a minimum focal distance of 55mm. So while it does zoom in quite far, it is technically only a 3.82x zoom (210/55). A combination of lenses can provide you with the same focal lengths as the aforementioned point and shoot zoom lens, but none of them will technically be a 20x zoom. The closest available at the moment is the Sony 24-240 or the 18-200 which are both roughly 10x zooms.Crop Factor:There is also another factor that can effect how much zoom the camera gets. Most point and shoot cameras use very small sensors. This means that a picture taken on this camera and a point and shoot with the "same focal length", say 50mm, will be much more zoomed in on a point and shoot. This is because the smaller sensor means you are basically taking a crop of the center of the image form the larger sensor. There are definite image quality, performance in low light, and artistic advantages to using a camera with a larger sensor, but it does mean that a lower quality camera will be able to get closer to a far off object at the same focal length.Adapters and Lenses:Because of the design of this camera, you can get some vintage manual lenses and attach them to this camera very affordably. You will control the aperture, focus, and zoom on the lens, but it is a very cheap way to get additional focal lengths and lenses for the camera.

Q: How do I charge the camera? Does it come with batteries or cables?

Hi JosephK, the camera comes with batteries, micro-USB cable and an AC adapter to charge the battery. Best regards, Zander

Q: Will this one allow for an external microphone to be attached?

Yes , by adding a $10 hot shoe adapter that you can buy here at Amazon. The one that I find will fit this Sony A6000 is "Neweer hot shoe adapter. It's not just an external microphone that can be added but you can also add an external slave flash on it using that same adapter. Hope this will.

Q: Where can I find a comprehensive guide of how to use all the different functions and advanced settings that this camera offers?

The "?" button is your friend. When you're in the menu settings and looking at different options, press the "?" button and it gives you some information about a particular setting or option.
