Amazing Camera!
I used to be an avid photographer back in 2009 and have been so busy and broke that I haven't had the time since then to purchase any new gadgets. My last camera was a Nikon F4, so as you can imagine how much catching up I have to do! This camera is easy to use. Every function on the dial explains to you what the feature is but, you'll have to figure out on your own how to use it. The kit lense that came with it is decent and the autofocus on thi...

A standout compared to the rest
I have recently bought a a600, and was a full out cannon user. The a600 is probably the best switch i have made. It is a change but is very useful and easy to get used to.

Better than I could have expected
I have used Canon cameras for as long as I can remember. Due to some joint pain (and simple convenience), I needed a light weight GOOD camera. After reading loads of reviews, I chose the Sony a6000 and LOVE it! The silver and black body has a classic look and the body is small, light and easy to take with me everywhere. Now, instead of wishing I had my camera, I DO have my camera with me almost all the time!

Get This Camera!!!
Nikon shooter for 30+ years. Bodies, lenses...pounds of gear. Mirrorless is changing who I am as a photographer. Quit reading the reviews, get your hands on the a6000 and get out there--the image quality is stunning (battery life not so much, so get an extra battery). Repeat: the image quality is stunning!

Worth every penny.
I use the a6000 for nature shots, for portraits, sports photography and for vacations. It is well equipped for all. It is light weight, it is fast, and it is programmable (and has programmes). I love the camera, hands down. One negative thing about the camera: It will not take a fool days outing on one battery. But thats life. It will also - fairly easy - overheat. One negative thing - in connection to the camera and gear line: I bought a Zeis 16... Show More

Switched from Canon - Never looking back

Size doesn't matter, it's how you use it
I replaced my Canon 7d MKII with this little beast and I have absolutely no regrets. Smaller, lighter, cheaper with extra features such as zebras, better wifi, and a tilt screen just to name a few. The continuous autofocus system on each camera is quite impressive and robust so I say Why not go for the lighter option! Of course it all depends on how rugged of a rig you need. For me, the a6000 fits the bill since I'm not out in the jungle or on th... Show More

Expect The Unexpected!
I have been a DSLR shooter for years and always shot with the same brand. Making the move to the mirrorless world was a bit questionable for me. After watching countless video reviews, reading up on multiple mirrorless camera brands, and comparing them all, I decided to give the Sony A6000 a try. I was not disappointed at all! In fact, it has far exceeded my expectations from a camera of this size. As my headline states, expect the unexpected fro... Show More

Nice camera, not so nice kit lens
I find the Sony Alpha a6000 with the 16-50mm kit lens to be a bit of a paradox. If it weren't for the lens, I would give just the camera a solid four stars. I'll start with the plusses on the camera. This is a surprisingly capable camera, especially considering it's cost and size. It packs an astonishing number of useful features. We purchased this camera for my wife, as she has outgrown the capabilities of her advanced point-and-shoot Cybershot ... Show More

Simply Amazing Video and Stills
This little gem produces sharper, cleaner video than my high dollar Pro cam and my Sony Alpha 77m2. It offers complete manual control of all parameters, full automatic, or any combination of both. You can also pre-program three modes with all your prefered parameters. Depth of field is deep enough to provide soft backgrounds but not so deep that only parts of a face are in focus during close ups. It provides amazingly clean video in low light, and even better stills in light where it's difficult to see with your eyes. For video, it's better than most DSLRs. For stills, it's a close match.

A great camera
I purchased this camera after a 5 month review of my own. It works just as advertised. This camera really shines if you will learn to operate in the full manual mode. I did use this on a recent wedding and also used my sony 16mm 2.8 e mount lens and the video was exceptional as well as my nikon 50mm 1.8 I also mounted my sony ea50 18-200mm and it works quite well for day or night time shots. My only complaint is that is does not have audio in.

Not as good as most people say
I heard many reports about the fast AF system, and how this was replacing some pro's DSLR. So, since I shoot a lot of sports and this was inexpensive relative to a DSLR with similar characteristics, I decided to try it. There is no way a professional sports photog would use this. The AF system is no where near as fast as my Nikon. The 11 FPS is awesome but if the subject is running the AF system can't keep up - so the 11 FPS would be worthless. T... Show More

Pocket Rocket
Heard so much about this camera. I had the original fuji x100 (12 mp). Had to upgrade to bigger file size because I'm doing some wall prints. Instead of lugging around my 5D mk3 around, this camera fit the bill in: file size, image quality, quick handling and small form factor. Matter of fact, I'm so happy with this camera's performance, I'm thinking of using it as a 2nd camera for video shooting. The video features on this surpasses the 5D MK3, ... Show More

Stunning Image Quality
Have had this camera for a week after 30+ years w/ Nikon SLR/DSLR. I shoot derelict properties and street photography. So far, 90% has been with the kit lens--bought the 55-210mm but not sure I'll need it much. Mainly in Aperture Mode. Good menus and Fn options. Bottom line is simple: the image quality I'm getting from this camera is stunning. Highly recommend this piece to a serious advanced amateur or semi-pro.

Fast AF & Great Image Quality
I bought the A6000 to be used as a camera for sports, primarily skiing, but love it as a general purpose camera for kids, birds, etc. Another reason I bought it is that I wanted a relatively inexpensive, high quality camera I can take into riskier situations (backountry skiing) without worrying about breakage. Since I also own an A7 I share lenses with the A6000. Thus far I find myself using the Sony FE 70-200 G lens the most but I've also got th... Show More

Go for it
Being recently retired, I find myself traveling more and more. My main camera is a nikon D90, however, it is way too heavy to carry all the time. I've been looking at mirrorless cameras for awhile and finally made the decision to purchase the Sony a6000. What a great decision! The a6000 lives up to it's reviews. Easy to use and beautiful photos. For the price you can't go wrong with this mirrorless gem.

Amazing Compact Powerhouse
So I originally bought this camera to be an interim solution while waiting for the new line of Canon cameras to hit the market. I am officially sold on the Sony's and will probably end up just buying the a-mount adapter and buying some good a-mount glass. Pros: Camera is super lightweight and very compact. With the 150/mbs card the 11fps doesn't ever bog. Great features, including a very good auto-focus system. Cons: Obviously the lens selection ... Show More

Very Gratifed
Have been a Nikon devotee for many years. I own the Nikon D3, 7000, and 800E. I was wary of getting a Sony camera at this time. However, I was gifted an a6000 and couldn't be more pleased. I have 9 Nikkor lenses, including several primes but plan on purchasing a Metabones adaptor for Nikon F lenses to use them on the a6000. The a6000 possesses all of the features that I want in any camera and its portability will be appreciated when my wife and I... Show More

great image quality but needs work on
This would be a perfect small camera if sony would do a couple of things to it.One thing is give it a front dial and rear dial for aperture and shutter speed and do away with the fiddly scroll wheel on the back and just make that a joystick pad for selecting focus points. That fiddly little scroll wheel on the back is a pain because it is so flat and you will constantly find yourself trying to turn it to change your shutter speed in manual mode a... Show More

Great Camera
I am still getting use to the a6000. It has so many controls. Check out Gary Fong's website for tons of tutorials on how to use the a6000. I was able to bundle lens and an SD card for less when I bought the a6000. I love the Electronic Viewfinder. Really excels in low lighting conditions. It is so light weight.

Light, compact, but serious camera
I have two SLR bodies and several lenses. I wanted this light camera for the occasions when I don't want to haul around heavy equipment. Secondly, I want to have a compact lightweight back up camera. The grip is very nice for a camera this size, the menu is easy to navigate and controls are well placed. The 16-50 standard lens is a little soft at the edges as I expected from reading many reviews. Out of the box, the camera was overexposing, but t... Show More
