  • A small camera that packs a big punch
Color: Black Style: Base Set: Base
PROS --------- - Dynamic range is better than Canon's cameras; comparable to Nikon's cameras since Sony makes the sensors for most Nikon bodies. - Better color accuracy than Canon cameras. Canon sensors process the infamous and very slight red hue. - Great continuous shooting rate: 11 frames per second! - Portable - Light - Extremely fast autofocus speed. Sony boasts the world's fastest auto-focus for their mirrorless lineup. - High ISO performance rivals full frame cameras. - Built-in wifi - Built-in NFC - Ability to directly install camera apps via Sony PlayMemories via wifi. - View finder displays how photo will look depending on settings. - Awesome video recording capabilities compared to Canon and Nikon - In-camera HDR feature - Articulating screen CONS --------- - Short battery life compared to traditional DSLR's (However, spare third party batteries are very affordable) - Changing some settings seems to require a couple more steps compared to Canon and Nikon platforms - NFC feature does not appear to work on iOS as of 3/2016; works perfectly on Android platform - Sony PlayMemories mobile app is required for NFC transfers - In-camera HDR feature only works when shooting in JPEG - 1.5x crop factor compared to full frame cameras (explanation below) PERSONAL TESTIMONIAL ----------------------------------------- I vowed I'd never return to cropped sensor (APS-C) cameras after purchasing a Canon 6D full frame camera. However, I did my research on the mirrorless platform, and I was sold on the Sony a6000, so much that I sold my Canon gear to fund the purchase of this camera body. The weight difference between the 6D body and the a6000 body is like night and day, and my neck will thank me later. Upon taking my first photos with the a6000, I instantly noticed the difference in color reproduction and dynamic range over my former camera. Then, I tried continuous shooting and I was floored--11 frames per second, which now allows me to take much better action shots. That, along with the a6000's extremely quick auto-focus resulted in some great photos of my daughter's very first soccer game. High ISO performance on the a6000 rivals that of a full frame camera. Now, it will be better on full frame, but the a6000 comes very close. With my Canon APS-C cameras (t3, t4i, and 60D), noise level was quite prominent above ISO 1600. With the a6000, photos at ISO 6400 are usable, and in some cases, even up to ISO 12,800. The built-in wi-fi has been helpful in allowing me to download apps directly to my camera. I've tested NFC on an Android phone, and it works perfectly (after downloading and installing the Sony PlayMemories mobile app). However, I have been unsuccessful in getting it to work on my iPhone 6S. I was never able to record acceptable video with my Canon bodies. I soon learned that Canon DSLR's are notoriously awful at video recording. I no longer have this issue with the a6000. Its quick autofocus does wonders on video as much as it does on stills, and it can record at 1080p, 60 FPS. The a6000 does have an in-camera HDR feature that's pretty decent, but since I mostly shoot RAW, I prefer shooting bracketed exposures and merge them later in post-processing as the in-camera HDR only works with JPEG's. The camera's articulating screen also comes in very handy when shooting at extreme angles, although it cannot be flipped all the way out for selfies. A smaller camera body obviously results in a smaller battery footprint. Since the a6000 packs so much power in such a portable body, battery life is unexceptional. The average battery life on the Canon 6D is rated at about 950 shots per charge, whereas the a6000 is rated at 310 shots on the view finder and 360 in live view. Fortunately, third-party batteries for the a6000 are very inexpensive. The trade-off was worth it in exchange for actual video recording ability, better quality photos, and significantly better continuous shooting speed. Now for crop factor. A full frame camera sensor is the same size as a 35 mm frame of film. The Sony a6000's APS-C sensor is 1.5 times smaller, so photos will have a narrower field of view. For example, a 14 mm lens on my Canon 6D has a 14 mm field of view since the 6D is a full frame camera. On the a6000, the same 14 mm lens will actually give me a field of view equivalent to 21 mm on full frame (14 x 1.5). Although the focal length is the same, the a6000's field of view will be tighter because of its smaller sensor size. This is a disadvantage to some, but for me, it was another trade-off I was personally willing to make because of how awesome the a6000 is. Just like I had no regrets buying the Canon 6D as it is a great camera in its own right, I have no regrets selling the 6D for the sake of adapting to the future of photography. My a6000 is pumping out better quality images and performing nearly as good at high ISO than my former camera body. I've yet to use it in more real world scenarios, but so far, I'm very impressed despite trading off battery life and crop factor. For over half the price of my previous setup, I couldn't go wrong. This is the perfect camera for the enthusiast and professional alike. In the case of the Sony a6000, big things really do come in small packages. ... show more

  • Sony is EVIL!
Color: Black Style: Base Set: Base
What was Sony thinking? This camera has just been released a little over a year ago and its price has dropped to a bargain level at $448 recently. When I saw this, I couldn't believe my eyes and immediately pushed the BUY button. I myself have already owned the entry level A3000 and that was another good bargain. But this with WIFI, NFC, best in class 24 megapixel sensor, and best in class frame rate? You 've gotta be kidding me. The list could go on and on and other reviewers have already mentioned some of its great features. So I 'm not going to repeat them here but focus on my perspective as a Canon DSLR shooter I always think Canon has been milking its APS-C sensor for years and the recent update over my 5-year old 7D was just a meh. The opportunity of adding a Sony came when I looked for a compact camera I could carry for those long hikes and international travels. Hauling a DSLR makes my shoulder hurts. The Sony A3000 was an answer. I have had that camera for a little over 5 months and I liked its value proposition. But in my mind, I always wanted the A6000 because it 's just a far better camera with its WIFI, EVF, and CMOS sensor. Its body shape is also less DSLR like and looks just like a rangefinder. It 's perfect for street photography with a prime lens on it. At the time I bought my A3000, the A6000 was selling for well over $600 and I wanted just to test the water with the A3000 and see how things go. Because Sony E mount body has such a short flange distance, you can literally mount any legacy lens with an appropriate adapters. I myself have a Metabones Canon FD lens adapter and it works very well with the Sony E mount bodies. If you are not into sports or wildlife, manual focus is a breeze with the Sony. All their bodies have focus peaking and magnification with one touch of a button. However, the A6000 has far better resolution on the EVF than its A3000 sibling. So that was a blessing for me as I have an aging eye sight. The tilted LCD screen is also very helpful if I need to raise my camera to shoot with a crowd in front of me. All these additional features and the price justify the A6000 over the A3000 if you ask me today. The A3000 price has dropped slightly but not as much as the A6000. $200 is a big drop forthe A6000 and I can tell you its CMOS sensor is far better than any Canon sensor at the same APS-C size. The RAW files from the A6000 have more latitude to push shadows in post without revealing any color banding noise unlike my Canon. This makes it easier for me to shoot under a high contrast situation. Speaking of which, I absolutely love the Sony built-in HDR function. The resulting photos came out very natural and you could even do it handheld as the Bionz X processor has the intelligence to do image alignment. With the A6000 fast frame rate, that becomes unnecessary unless you are making long exposures. I cannot do this with my Canon DSLR. I normally need to use ND grad filter for highly contrast scenes. But with this Sony, I no longer need to carry those ND Grad filters and the mounting bracket. That saves me some space in my camera bag. To augment this camera for street photography, I have recently acquired a Sony 35mm F1.8 and it 's a perfect match in heaven with the A6000. The setup is so compact, light, and discreet. The only thing I would complain is that the shutter on the A6000 is much louder than my other A3000. So now my A3000 has become my backup. These cameras are perfect for travel to those third world countries and unfamiliar neighborhoods. At least you don't look like a walking ATM machine. Ain't Sony EVIL? (aka electronic viewfinder interchange lens). I am now thinking to switch some of my Canon gear to Sony. Sony has a habit of introducing new bodies every year or so. You just need to time it if you are looking for real bargains. Their bodies might be cheap, but they make that up by selling you more expensive lenses sometimes even more than the camera bodies. Their Zeiss lenses are among the best yet expensive. But you can always get away with legacy manual focus lenses if you don't need autofocus. Sony 's manual focus aid is the best in the industry IMO. I cannot even do manual focus efficiently with my Canon 5D Mark3 which is over 6 times more expensive than the Sony A6000. ... show more
