Sony Alpha a6000 Mirrorless Digital Camera with 16-50mm Lens and Accessory Kit (White)
Outstanding camera
I bought my wife an A6000 when they first came out. I was impressed by the quality of photos it took. My main camera is a Sony A99ii with several lenses that range from 17-400 mm. that I use for RAW landscape photography. I have all of it in a Think Tank roll case that is fairly large. I wanted a small camera that I could leave in jpeg and treat as as a point and shoot for travels that space was limited and I knew wasn't going to involve lan... Show More

Extremely disappointed
Purchased this camera in January 2017. Turned it on last week and screen indicates "camera error, turn off and on again". After trying everything suggested by other users and Sony the error message still appears. The solution? Send in for diagnostic repair at cost of approximately $300. From my research this appears to be not an uncommon problem. Extremely disappointed that Sony puts out a product that fails shortly after warranty expires and then expects you to pay an amount that renders the camera worthless. Buyer beware!!

Great for Travel and or Beginners
This camera is small and lightweight which makes it perfect for traveling (it can fit in your pocket). I gave this camera a solid five stars, because in my personal opinion it's everything it claims to be. I bought this camera not long after it first came out and for the longest time I used the lens kit that came with it and that was it...no external flash or nicer lenses or any other equipment. Just the camera and the 16-50mm lens that came with... Show More

Poor quality lens
It was an impressive camera. But the lens is very fragile. The camera was hardly used and one day it could not recognize the 16-50 mm lens. There were a lot discussion in Sony forum about this error code. Most of them are related to the cleanness or some drops. However there was not cleanness or minor drops, it was out of blue that the camera can not recognize the lens. This is purely poor quality or poor design.

Additional accessories included with this kit.
With this kit a Sony lens hood is included with the 55-210 MM lens. A Sony eye piece is also included with the camera. When ordering this kit from B & H Photo, ask to be upgraded to the larger Rugged Onyx 45 shoulder bag. The kit does include a smaller Rugged Onyx 25 bag with it.

Suffers from poor auto focus, bloated menus, jpg processing.
This much-hyped camera has it's good points which do not need to be mentioned here. Instead, videographers and phototgraphers should be aware of three things which I felt made this camera sub-par for my use as an interview camera. 1. Extremely poor auto-focusing mechanism. This camera could rarely hold a face in focus if that face was moving in the frame. This is unacceptable for a camera in this price range. 2. The most basic and ... Show More

What a cool little camera
I bought an a6000 for a trip to Guatemala so I wouldn't have to take my big DSLR, and wasn't sure what to expect. I couldn't be more happy. It has some amazing functions (I mean, who doesn't want to do panos with the swipe of the arm?), and the menu system was a lot easier to pick up than I expected. Will it be a replacement for my Nikon D810s? No, but I've already used it in a business application - and when I just need a banging-around camera, this fits the bill nicely.

Very suitable for what I need!
Pretty simple to use and fun to play around with. I'm no photographer, but it worked well for I needed it for. Brought it along for my travels. Nice and compact. Picture quality is amazing. I like the white one just because it's different than what most people carry around. I definitely recommend this!

Best mirror less camera for beginners
I am using a6000 mirror less since 3 weeks and found it best choice for beginners. Excellent result.

Rebooted my love for photography
I'm by no means a newcomer to digital photography: from the first Canon Rebel all the way to three Samsung mirrorless cameras, my fascination with portrait and close up photography has reached another level: the Sony A6000 and a couple of Sony lenses allow me to capture the world around me and it seems I'm getting a little recognition from my weddings and portrait work (it's all fun and learning). The outstanding capabilities of the A6000 and ton... Show More

I purchased this camera after speaking with a friend who is a professional photographer. I will be taking it on an Alaskan cruise so looking forward to using it.

To Be Determined
I bought only the body to use with my existing lenses. Would not work work kit lens. Hoping it was the lens.

Great little camera and lens
Use this as a backup for A7M2 and for pole photography using wifi and PlayMemories Smart Remote Control. I can control exposure and power-zoom lens focal length remotely, and it takes up very little space in my kit bag. Should have bought this a long time ago.

Worth every cents for this combination.
Quality of the photos taken is great and close to cameras 3-4 times the price (considering the discounted price I paid). I would not say that if I had to pay full MSRP.

Camera developed issues after only four month of use.
I had the company that I work for buy two of these cameras since our Nikon D5300's are 3 years old and well past a 250,000 shutter count. We purchased these around the middle of December 2017 and have been using them daily to take photos of cars at our dealership. We take about 500+ photos daily. I noticed last week that my camera when I turned it on would immediately lock focus without me even touching the shutter button. When it's like this I c... Show More

Great, powerful little camera!
I'm still learning how to use it, but so far, this little camera has many great features & takes really nice photos & video. Love that it has the viewfinder & the screen & that it shoots RAW format.

Amazing camera, however bag doesnt fit both lenses
The camera is amazing so easy to use, however the case included in the accessories kit doesnt fit both lenses. Therefore I am going to have to buy another case, which is frustrating and seems like a waste of money

So far so... GREAT!
Have been using the camera for about two weeks now, and it takes such amazing pictures. I really think this is the best package because you get about $80 worth of accessories for free, which you could look at as a discount. Would definitely recommend to a friend, or honestly anyone looking for a compact camera that shoots (in my opinion) better than a DSLR, look no further!

Needs ergonomic help
I bought this to replace a Canon 7D DSLR. This thing clearly wins in the weight department. It is nice and lightweight like what I was looking for. Changing settings for anything is a pain. if you want to bump the exposure up or down a little you have to press a button to bring up the exposure settings and then rotate the wheel to change the exposure. Manual focus requires another menu selection but fortunately there's a single button to bring up... Show More

Sony A6000
The combination of the camera and lenses is a great way to start a photography experience. I see the need to further advance the camera capability is to get better lens, so keep that in mind when purchasing this package.
