    Test the limits of your creativity with the premium mirrorless DSLR that’s focused on speed. Every artistic shot you take—from fast-action to candid—benefits from 24.3MP detail and the world’s fastest auto focus6. For capturing crucial moments that go by in a blink, the a6000 can shoot 11 photos in one second. It’s compact and easy to use, too. Two quick-access dials let you change settings on the fly. Very intuitive.

    Features

    All the quality in half the size & weight of other DSLRs

    The α6000 is a super compact Mirrorless camera that’s about half the size and weight of a typical DSLR, yet it has the same size APS-C image sensor as most DSLRs. The interchangeable lenses and E-mount system make the α6000 more versatile than almost any other camera on the market.

    World’s fastest auto focus6 with 179 AF points and 11Fps

    Never miss the moment - the α6000 captures 11fps frames per second in continuous shooting mode with AF (Auto Focus) tracking by making the most of the wide-area 179-point phase-detection AF sensor. Even when dealing with fast action the α6000’s superb moving-subject tracking performance ensures you get a great shot during still or video capture.

    Capture life in stunning high resolution with 24MP APS-C sensor

    Get incredible detail and gorgeous enlargements thanks to the newly developed 24.3 megapixel Exmor APS HD CMOS image sensor. It’s higher resolution than most DSLRs and adopts the same gapless on-chip lens structure as the α7R for ultimate image quality and light sensitivity.

    Features

    Better Images through BIONZ X processing

    The new BIONZ X image processor faithfully reproduces textures and details in real time via extra high-speed processing capabilities delivering true-to-life images - as seen by the naked eye. It enables greater natural detail, richer tonal gradations, lower noise and more realistic images whether you shoot stills or video.

    Instant sharing via smartphone with Wi-Fi and NFC

    Sharing has never been so easy. Wi-Fi connectivity allows you to control your camera with your compatible Smartphone or Tablet and the PlayMemories Camera Apps.5 Frame your image on your device’s LCD and control the camera shutter. You can even transfer the images taken directly to your mobile device for quick editing and uploading - Connectivity has been simplified to one-touch utilizing NFC (near field communication). Simply touch the camera to the compatible NFC enabled device to connect.

    Gorgeous low light photos with ISO range of 100-25600

    With 20% higher sensitivity than the NEX-7 due to the newly developed Exmor CMOS sensor and BIONZ X processor, you get stunning detail in in low light from ISO range 100 – 25000. And for an additional burst of light, the α6000 features a pop-up flash and a standard hot shoe for additional flash accessories.

    Features

    Easy and intuitive controls help you shoot like a pro

    Despite its small size, the α6000 gives you full DSLR control and immediate access to the functions you need to shoot like a pro. Two dials on top and a rear-mounted control wheel allow quick selection of shooting modes and camera settings. In addition to the Fn button, there’s seven customizable buttons, which can be assigned any of 474 functions.

    Record Full HD 1080/24/60P video3

    Make movie magic with Full HD 1920 x 1080 video in cinematic 24p, or capture fast action at incredible 60p and 60i frame-rates.3 Made even easier with the α6000’s 179 point AF (auto focus) system – tracking moving subjects is not a problem. Selectable in-camera – Blu-ray quality - AVCHD or simple and easier upload to the web - MP4 codecs are available. For serious videographers, uncompressed clean-screen video files to external recording devices is made possible via the HDMI connection.

    What you see is what you get with an OLED Viewfinder

    There’s never been anything quite like the Tru-Finder OLED electronic viewfinder (EVF). The OLED EVF features a new optical system with four double aspherical lenses that deliver 100% frame coverage and a wide viewing angle (approx. 33°) for clear visibility from corner to corner dramatically improving visibility. View every scene in rich tonal detail and gradations on the high contrast 1.4M dot OLED EVF. The viewfinder faithfully displays what will appear in your recording, including the effects of your camera settings, so you can accurately monitor the results. There are many advantages to electronic viewfinders, including the ability to display the effects of various camera settings before you take the picture, the use of MF Assist, and Peaking function for fine-tuning focus and previewing the shot.

    Features

    3.0" 921k dot LCD tilts for high and low angle framing

    The tiltable 3.0” (921k dots) Xtra Fine LCD Display makes it easy to photograph over crowds or low to capture pets eye to eye by swinging up approx. 90° and down approx. 45°. Easily scroll through menus and preview life thanks to WhiteMagic technology that dramatically increases visibility in bright daylight. The large display delivers brilliant-quality still images and movies while enabling easy focusing operation.

    Exactly what I expected!
    I have been looking for a camera like this ever since my Sony Alpha 3 was stolen. I don’t take photos with a real camera very often and b/c of that I didn’t want to invest a lot of money in something I would rarely use. I am very happy with the camera so far and it is by far the best camera for the price point I was willing to pay.The seller was great, I had no issue with receive the device and it was a quick delivery.

    (1台目)見た目は綺麗な商品が届きましたが、「レンズ内わずかにちりございますがクリアです。」とのご説明でしたのに、実際には大きなゴミ(カビ?)が映り込みます。センサーのクリーニングが必要かと思い西宮の販売店にご相談したところ、「返品対応しかできない」というご返事でしたので、やむを得ず返品しました。大いに落胆しました。
    (2台目)気を取り直して別のところに注文。もっと綺麗な商品が届きました。しかし見ると底部に三脚使用によるものと思われる大きな傷がありました。中古品なのでやむを得ないかと思い、一応出品者の評価欄にその旨記載したところ今度はすぐにお電話いただき「見逃しておりました、修理させてほしい」とのこと。大阪駅前の大手販売店に返送してメーカ修理の運びとなりました。結果ケースだけでなく液晶ディスプレイまで交換されていました。ご丁寧かつ素早い対応をしていただき感謝、感謝。なおα6000の写り、操作とも期待通りです。大事に使用したいと思います。

    5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Camera; Compact, Lightweight, Fast Auto Focus, Great Quality and Easy to Use.
    Reviewed in Canada on January 7, 2016
    Superb little camera! I've owned this for 2 months now and took this to on a 3 week trip around Japan and South Korea. I normally shoot a full frame Canon 6D with 4 lenses, but the thought of lugging all that heavy gear around Japan and Korea for 3 weeks was just too much. So I decided to go for a compact mirrorless. I picked the Sony a6000 based on 1) industry reviews and 2) competitive price point compared to Fuji mirrorless.

    I love:

    Size - so small compared to the massive full frame DSLRs. it fits in a large coat pocket.
    Weight - can hand around your neck no problem. In a backpack you barely notice its there.
    Auto Focus - lighting fast. Also great at tracking moving objects
    11 frames per second - great fun if you're capturing sports or anything action.
    Control dials - I set on dial to aperture, another to shutter speed. ISO is located with one button.
    Image quality - look at my photos on this review. Yes. I've tweaked and played around with them in Lightroom but the sharpness and quality to begin with is there. (Shooting RAW, of course)

    I don't like:

    Battery Life - The battery drains even with the camera turned off. Battery seems to depend how long the camera is on for instead of how many frames are taken. However the easy solution is to buy the secondary battery and wall-socket charger. Speeds up the charging time and allows you to keep shooting with a new battery.I bought both at same time on amazon and was very glad I did so.
    Electronic Viewfinder - it's simply not the same as looking through the viewfinder on your DSLR. You can tell its computer generated and not looking down a mirror of a DSLR. At night or in low light conditions the you can see graininess in the viewfinder. Using the - LCD screen is also handy. However I like the way the camera senses when the camera is brought up to the eye and the LCD switches off and switches to the viewfinder.
    ISO Noise - you can start to see it at ISO 800. If you're using Adobe Lightroom/photoshop or equivalent this can be easily cleaned up.

    The kit lens is reasonably sharp. I'm sure with more the expensive E mount lenses it just gets better and better. Combine it with a pocket tripod and your all set for some stunning travel photography. I also think it is perfect for beginners to learn the craft in manual mode. Its also reasonably priced if you don't want to stretch out to top model DSLRs.

    Overall, for me, (an enthusiast photographer with some paid gigs under my belt), it's a perfect leisure and travel camera. It won't replace my DSLR. But its my "go to" camera if I'm just hanging out with friends or the subject matter does not require the expensive top end DSLR accompanied by the full arsenal of lenses.
