  • Still a Great Camera for 2018! Great Beginners and Advanced Enthusiast!
Color: Black Style: Base Set: Base
I've owned every Sony mirrorless camera since the Nex-5N. I've also owned every Sony A7 full frame mirrorless camera except for the A9. I'm currently shooing with the Sony A7riii professionally. The Sony A6000 was my first advanced semi-professional camera in the Sony mirrorless line and it was a game changer for me. I have since upgraded to the A6500 but in 2018 this is viable camera for those wanting to get into more serious photography and those who want a small compact travel camera that can change lenses. Many professionals also keep one of these as a backup for equipment failures. The A6000 went down in history in the Sony line as a legendary camera. Pros: Price. When I first purchased this, this was $800 with a 16-50mm kit and $650 for just the body. The price has come down a lot now to $500 for body and kit and $450 for just the body. In the used market you can find them for just a little over $300. This is an amazing deal for a camera of this caliber. When I purchased this camera, it used to be the top of the Sony mirrorless APS-C line. It was a replacement for the NEX 6/7. Nowadays there is a an A6300 and A6500 so it's become the low tier product. But at this price it's still viable as a entry-level camera. Size. There's very few cameras that are as compact as the A6000 that packs a punch. The A6000 with the kit 16-50mm lens is small enough to fit in purses and cargo pant pockets. It will also fit perfectly in compartments in backpacks and other bags. It is significantly smaller than most entry level DSLR cameras from Canon or Nikon. FAST. This camera shoots continuous bursts extremely quick. I normally shoot on continuous mode (hold shutter down) so not to miss a shot and pick out the best one later. With this camera I need to be wary of how long I hold it down for because after a few seconds I have 20+ photos in my camera that are all essentially the same. I've tried and I can't shoot less than 3 shots with one push of the shutter. If you shoot moving objects you can almost make a flip-book or stop motion movie with this. Amazing speed. Fast autofocus. The AF of this camera is PDAF and Contrast Detect. PDAF is much quicker and contrast detect is used for fine-grain adjustments. It's the same kind of AF system used in the A7 line of professional cameras. The AF is competent enough to track fast moving subjects well and should be more than capable for most people's needs. Lens Compatibility. Even though this is an older Sony E mount camera, it is fully compatible with the entire lineup of Sony E and FE mount lenses. This means you can attach a professional fast 1.8 or 1.4 lens for great low light photos and beautiful bokeh photos. Upgrading a lens is always more bang for buck than upgrading a body. Construction. Overall the camera seems well built and sturdy. It's not waterproof but good enough to handle everyday use. It would not handle serious drops however. Wireless. The wireless feature is an added bonus that most entry-level DSLRs don't have. Download the Sony Playmemories App and you can use your phone to wirelessly transfer files, use your phone as a remote, and as a secondary screen. Improvements in the Sony app has seen much better features and speed over the years. Apps. The apps on the camera are something mostly exclusive to Sony Mirrorless. They're a welcome addition. Some of the best ones are the remote shooting app, the touchless shutter, and numerous time lapse apps. Cons. LOW LIGHT. The main problem with this camera is the ISO quality has been superseded by its competitors due to the sensor's age. The photos become noisy at ISO 800 and above, which is a common ISO used in indoors situations. In low light you absolutely need some flash to fill in the light. Even in RAW shooting the low light, you'll deal with noisy photos. You can always correct some of it in post but the camera's age and limitations do show. The A6300 and A6500 are improvements in the ISO and image quality. The camera is still good for hobby and non-professional work but the A6000 is definitely not good enough for paid or professional work! Battery life. The battery life on all mirrorless cameras are still abysmal, the A6000 included. Sony has upgraded the battery capacity in the newest gen 3 A7 cameras however they have not made it over to the APSC line. The problem is, without a reflex mirror, whenever the camera is on, the sensor is on. The sensor not only takes the photos, it lets you "see" through the viewfinder or LCD. The consequence is the camera is constantly sucking juice when it's on. With regular SLRs, the sensor is only on when you shoot and a SLR will last you several days without charge with normal use. I always keep a spare battery and an external charger around. If you buy this camera (or any other mirrorless camera), I suggest you do the same. Lens compatibility. Even though this works with Sony lenses, unlike the A7 series, the A6000 is not great with many Canon to Sony mount adapters. The performance of non-Sony lenses were always a toss up even with the A7 series but as the A6000 is not a professional camera, most companies like Metabones and Sigma won't be updating their adapters to work well with this camera. If you have Canon or Sigma lenses, expect only partial support with the A6000. Overall this is a fantastic camera. In 2018, it is a bit dated by its competitors and newer versions from Sony. However its role has changed to an entry-level camera and your expectations should match as such. For the price, it is fantastic for a beginner who wants more serious higher quality photos than cell phone cameras. Additionally, professionals regularly use this camera for personal work, or as a backup camera since it can accept professional Sony lenses. Finally, the size is perfect as a travel camera. ... show more

  • Wonderful travel camera
Color: Black Style: Base Set: Base
Aloha first off a little about myself for reference, I'm an enthusiast shooter that loves landscapes, cityscapes, and surfphotography. I also do model and animal photos too occasionally. I've shot with canon xt/xsi, 7D, 5D, and 5D mrk iii, and now the a6000. I primarily bought the a6000 for it's very small size and great image quality for quick short trips. I have it in my backpack all the time and don't even notice it's there. Being a dslr shooter that loves to control all aspects of the camera, I was worried that I'd be limited to what I'd be able to control. But the a6000 offers me even more control of the camera than my 5d mrk iii! I was also worried about getting used to the button layout but it actually is very intuitive, my time spent learning where everything was was very short. Also the different types of information that you can customize your rear screen with and the evf are incredible! Pros: - Very compact body - Excellent image quality(using the 18-105 f4 G OSS lens), even in handheld lowlight panorama shot jpegs are quite stunning. - Build quality is top notch, doesn't feel cheap at all - Amount of manual control allowed. - control layout is intuitive. - the customizable screen information is ridiculously good! - the Sony app is pretty cool along with the nfc for transferring images to your phone/tablet. -11 frames per second! Oh my goodness! With continously autofocus. - quick and solid focus Cons: - loving the small camera size and all the controls they give you, that being said I have big hands and some buttons are cramped together. So my thumb gets sore from trying to tightly maneuver the buttons. - the evf/rear screen both seem a little flat when displaying images while shooting. (Looks different from reviewing the image after shot) But that might just be me being used to dslr penta prism view finder. - if you use the rear screen a lot for composing like lanscapes and it being on for say 35 minutes while you shoot, you may only get like 50 shots before the battery goes, so pack extra! ***Update 12/24/15 I believe that one of my batteries from Wasabi is not holding its charge very well and gave me very little shooting time. The OEM cannon battery and other Wasabi battery last much longer I'd say 3 to 4 times as long. :D *** So overall I love it, jpeg images have great color and saturation, RAW files have dynamic depth to them, metering and focusing are very good. I'm very happy with this camera. I've attached a few sunrise/sunset images. The panos are handheld, one is in camera processed, the other raw images stitched in LR, the third is a single raw image processed in LR. Mahalo, Mike Flickr : MICHAEL A SANTOS ... show more
