Maybe some of you guys know I have been blogging for quite some time already. If you've been with me since I started blogging then you already know that my blog is already almost 6 years old now. I first started blogging my daily life (my oldest posts are still up but they're too cheesy so please bear with my 17-year-old self) and when I started reading other blogs I realized I have a lot more to share aside from my school life and personal thoughts. 

Kryz Uy and Camille Co were the first ones that I have looked up to. And so eventually I started sharing my style and fashion finds. I wasn't really a fashionista that time because I used to be very shy and it reflects with how I dress: very BASIC. Thanks to these two fashion icons, I was able to push myself and express myself with fashion. Since then I have always blogged about what I wear and eventually, I also started sharing some beauty related stuff. 

It wasn't long ago when I decided to invest in a decent camera. Since I started I have been using my phone to capture my looks and beauty finds. I bought my first camera (Canon Ixus 155) with my blogging income which was approximately P7,000.00. It was newly released way back 2013 and it was one of the best yet cheap camera I could afford. I was so happy that I finally have a decent camera to use but then I realized top notched bloggers have already bid farewell to point and shoot cameras and have been using DSLR cameras. Fast forward to this current time, I am still using my digital camera LOL. I have always wanted to buy a DSLR camera but I find the size bulky. Good thing I found SONY α5000.


This was released in 2014 (If I had known, I could have bought this one instead) but I must say it is still one of the best camera for fashion and beauty bloggers and vloggers now! Here's why!

• It is from SONY. And knowing the brand, they are one of the best when it comes to cameras!
• Full HD AVCHD (60i/50i/25p/24p) video recording.
• Features a 20.1 megapixel Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor
• Has 3-inch 180° tiltable LCD panel with 460k-dot resolution that can be flipped 180 degrees to face forward. Definitely the perfect camera for bloggers and vloggers!
