Sony Alpha a6000 Mirrorless Digital Camera with 16-50mm Lens (Graphite)
The Sony Alpha exceed my expectation
It is a huge up grade in camera functions over my broken Canon PowerShot G11 but it is about the same weight and about 3/4 inch larger in depth. Continuous shooting at 11fps in raw with different focus area is outstanding. The video quality is outstanding. Below are a couple of test I did in the first week, one continuous shooting and the video shoot edited to 5 minutes.

Great product
Very light camera, very fast focus, reasonably good kit lenses, and ability to use great Minolta prime lenses with adapter, and topped by very prompt , courteous service from B&H Photo. Unlikely I would carry my Dslr and Zoom lenses again on any trips again as they are so much heavier. I would highly recommend the camera and kit lenses and definitely recommend B&H Photo.

Excellent Camera!!
This is my first DSRL like camera. I researched both DSLR and mirrorless cameras and opted for the Sony A6000. I could not be happier with my purchase. The camera is small and compact. It weighs very little and fits perfectly in my hands. It is perfect for everyday and travel photography. This is a camera I can grow and learn with. Below are 2 pictures from my first day.

Great Camera
Had problems with the first and second camera that I had bought. Niether would read or format the SD cards. Received the third camera and It works perfectly. Great photos and Video is very very nice. B and H handled all of the returns of the 2 cameras. Wouldn't buy from anyone else. I will still give the camera 5 stars even with the problems that I had with the first 2.

Great compact camera
I grew up with DSLRs and got tired of the weight. So I rented this little guy and fell in love! I bought it as soon as I returned the rental. The focus is impressive and you cant beat 11 fps continuous shooting. Great size for holding for long periods of time- even with the 18-200 zoom lense on it. Quality of pictures is very impressive. Very happy with my new camera!

really nice little camera
just got it Friday and took it our for a spin yesterday--used it in auto mode and love the colors of the pictures--also read that turn on the airplane mode to save battery power and also turn off prefocusing in menus my battery did last when I did this--now will go to other setting like S and A to see how they work that is the settings I use most in my other cameras--

This is one very impresive camera.
I have been seriously shooting for over fifty years. In 2008 I was diagnosed with an illness I am still fighting. I haven't been shooting since my diagnosis. All my equipment was too heavy to carry around. The Sony A6000 has so many advances that make this camera the best in it's class. The compact weight has given me the ability to get back to shooting. Thanks Sony!

from a cardboard KodaK to this!!
70 years of searching for the best camera is over. this is it! ( for Me ). I s hoot candid portrats ; alot of perfromers in poor light. . It finds the light, and the color. the speed of the Autofocus is as fast as Human. . I am Pushing up into 5000ISO and it still absorbs every pour. I has taken to giving it to friends to shoot me! they have become instant experts. .

Very good outfit
Really good outfit, especially for the price. It is easy to use and the kit lenses are surprisingly sharp. My only problem is that I thought the kit was supposed to come with two UV filters, one for each lens. Mine came with one 49mm filter which fit the telephoto lens but no filter for the wide angle lens. B&H Please send the UV filter if you are listening. Thanks.

Awesome Deal / Awesome Camera
Wanted something better then the point and shoot digital cameras I currently have. Came across the after Christmas deal and decided to buy. Swapping out lens is very easy. Sony has done a good job on their menus and controls. Bottom line; takes great pictures. If there is a drawback, the bag that come with the accessory kit is to small to hold all the stuff you get.

Wow just wow!
This is such an amazing camera! Truly outstanding photo quality, lots of useful features, lightweight & very easy to carry. The 16-50mm lens I need more practice with but so far Im not near as happy with it has the 55-210 lens its what gives this review the fifth star. If your wanting to upgrade your camera or get into photography/videography this is the way to go!

Great Travel Camera
Been using this product for about a month now on a motorcycle voyage across America and it has held up very well. I like the fact that it it is small and lightweight compared to my traveling companions DSLR. I'm not trying to be a pro photographer, just wanted a nice camera to take pictures of the cool things I see on my travels and this camera is perfect for that.

I recommend this product
I love the weight of this camera. I used it for he first time on a trip and was very pleased with the results.I liked the feel of the csmera in my hands. There is a learning curve in adjusting to where the controls are. Unfortunately, the Sony manual online and the one they provide with the camera is virtually useless which is the reason I gave it only four stars.

Love this little camera!
This is my second A6000. Bought one about four years ago and added a second one. Small and very light weight, but it has the features of a very sophisticated SLR. The lens options, which were somewhat limited when I bought the first one, have gotten much better over the years. This is a great camera for hiking, traveling and day trips. It takes excellent photos.

Great buy.
I bought this one after dropping my Sony a7000 into water. Really happy with the camera so far, specifically the autofocus speed. Try to get the SEL50f18 prime lens if you have some extra bucks to spear to get best out of this gem. Don't forget to watch Gary's video on B&H. He teaches you how to get best of this camera with minimal manual changes for each shoot.

Sony makes another great camera
I am well satisfied with how easy the camera is to set the scene and focus is so fast I am amazed. The quality of photo is great. This is my 4th Sony camera, 3 digital and 1 dslr. Can't wait to get home and use my new a6000. Our son is getting married in November and they asked if I would take the pictures for their wedding. I am looking to put it to the test.

Great Camera!
The Sony A6000 takes great pictures. The menus are decent and fairly easy to navigate. Video recording is sharp and clean and the anti shake feature works great. Auto focus is very fast and 11 frames per second is incredible. B&H training hosted by Gary on YouTube is outstanding! Thank you for that. Even with holiday rush, shipping was on time and as promised.

PlayMemories App is worthless.
Sony a6000 is a fantastic camera and the service from B&H is excellent. But, the camera is useless without proper software. In order to download the photos from camera to your iPhone or laptop, you need to download PlayMemories App. THIS APP IS THE MOST IRRITATING SOFTWARE. I am thinking of returning the camera back to B&ah because of this useless software.

Excellent
I was given this camera as a gift. I love it. It is very light weight and does everything that i wanted in a camera. I would give it 5 stars, but I do not like the lens cap. I wish it had something to attach to the camera when not in use. If I don't have pocket, I have to find a place to put it while using the camera. Thus, I have misplaced it several times.

Cant live without on a daily basis
The ideal interchange lens camera for everyday usage, I find myself with this camera everywhere I go, compact light & most of all interchangeable. Development ready via Sony Store. WIDI++, HI-RES VIDEO. Biggest CON: Battery Life, don't expect to shoot all day with this camera with one battery, recommended to buy an extra battery, if generic Watson NP-FW50.

Solid, Responsive Camera
I just got the camera, so I am still comparing to my NEX-6. Paired with the Zeiss 16-70mm, I find the IQ of my shots is excellent. The auto focus speed is amazing. The camera also feels solid. In build it remind me a bit of the Fuji's. Still working through performance with my other lenses, and haven't done any low-light shooting yet, but so far so good!

Brought my old lenses back to life
As a former Minolta MC/MC and Leica R enthuasiast, I had missed the touch, feel and rendering of these gorgeous lenses, which had been all but obsoleted by the digital revolution in photography. With some very affordable adapters, these amazing lenses have come back to life and I love it! I use the very capable a6000 body as a digital film, if you will.

Still in the learning curve
I carry this as a back-up/second camera. Snapped pictures I would have lost due to changing lens on primary camera. Access to instructions/manuals is torturous. Finally downloaded a manual from a U.K. website. Learning functions/buttons, etc., requires clicking through multiple tabs in camera. Takes some getting used to after knowing my D7100 by heart.

Great Camera
The Sony A6000 is awesome! So many features. Buying this camera is like setting off on an adventure. You don't know where it is going to take you. I have taken some great pics and not so great pics. The learning curve is steep. I am an amateur at best, but I live discovering new things and learning. You will learn a lot taking pics with this camera.
