Product Reviews

I bought it just over a month ago and it has been amazing, the quality of the photos and videos is great, but there is no manual focus with the kit lens which is slightly annoying depending what you need it for.

Great features. I'm happy that I choose sony as my camera.

Lots of great features. Easy to use. Very impressed.

I'm a professional photographer and I do usually force myself to take my Canon 5Dmklll wherever I go with the kids in the holidays... But this year for me really felt like a busman's holiday... but why shouldn't I capture beautiful images of my own children when that's what I'm paid to do by others for a living? So after a few chats with other togs, the Sony A6000 kept coming up. So I decided to bite the bullet and treat 'us' to one I can take on our outings and camping trips etc... and I must say I LOVE IT... The lightweight, easy to use point & shoot camera does all the work, 24.3 megapixels (my Canon is 22.3!) and you can send images straight to your phone!!! What more cld a girl wish for??? Would Highly recommend xxx

I am an abosulte beginner when it comes to photography and bought my Sony A6000 about a month ago to pratcice and develop my skills. It is a neatly designed and versatile product that is easy to carry and is a perfect companinon for someone starting out with photography.

I bought this for my son for uni he loves it and says it's so easy to use.

I bought this last November an I love it... easy to use and to carry anywhere.

This is a great little camera. I have replaced my DSLR with it as it does everything a DSLR can do better and faster. It is very compact but feels solid. Its high quality and is easy to use. It's auto settings are useful but there is still full manual control if required

Bought this a month ago to take pics of my collies, the quality is fantastic

It's an Easy to use camera and has some amazing features

Reasonably intuitive to use for an analogue troglodyte like me. Takes excellent images and lets me do things I haven't done since I had an old FE thirty years ago.

Was recommended this by a friend as a good all rounder, as a beginner I am still learning all the settings but on the auto settings it delivers great photos as a point an shoot. I love that the lens is interchangeable and the size means it’s not too bulky to carry around on trips.

The real test comes when we go to Sri Lanka but so far captured some bird life with the zoom and sport sports action using the sports mode, rapid shoot at Parkrun. Brill.

Bought this on the way to Spain at the airport. Never considered before but I was looking at a new Nikon body D500 and bought this in spur of the moment. Absolutely no regrets, fantastic for the price. It’s size belies it’s performance, easy to dismiss it for a DSLR but don’t. Only gripe is that the manual is poor and I have relied on YOUTUBE if I want to know anything. Would recommend to anyone especially when only £399.

Got this camera two weeks ago and v happy with it. When initially researching which camera to buy I did not realise how good the viewfinder would be for people like me who need reading glasses. I have already taken some fabulous images and I am looking forward to becoming fully expert in all its features!

Easy to use a lot of features and easy to use. There is a lot of scope for using differing techniques and the picture quality is great. One very minor gripe would have been realy nice if it came with a protective case.

great light weight . good pictures, have use it for a month. Sony could have inclued a hot shoe cover and a mains charger to charge battery outside of camera. NEED TIME TO GET TO KNOW ALL THE MENUS

easy camera to use .and value or money .as good as a camera three times as expensive

Having used medium format film until the early naughtiest then gone on to Pentax digital with a bag full of heavy lenses I decided to try out this little fella. Lenses not cheap but the quality is absolutely superb. Goodbye to my K3 mark 2. No regrets.

Bought this a few months ago, and I am astounded with the quality.Together with 55-210lens, its unbeatable

Everybody (well not everybody) moans about the menu system. I don't find it bad, yes it takes a bit of hunting for some settings if you don't use them often but that's to be expected. The menu system is actually quite well laid out for the amount of information it holds. I don't do video so cant comment on that aspect, I do however take pictures. I am not a pro but can churn out good results and this camera is more than capable of producing some very nice pictures. you can crop heavy if you need to thanks to the 24mp. There is nothing I can really fault about the camera or the picture quality, its on par with my dslr. The downside to Sonys e-mount is the price of good glass, and the size of that good glass. however for most the kit lens will be more than enough. Having said that the 30mm Prime lens from sigma is fantastic and cheap and thats what i use 90% of the time. The issue with the sony is the play app is clunky and connecting my camera to the app is a pain in the side, so i just don't bother using it anymore. In summery, I love this camera, I nearly brought the rx100 mkiii but went for the larger sensor on the a6000 in the end and glad I did. in an ideal world i would have both (maybe one day) If I broke my a6000, I would replace it with another one! (I have dropped it while on holiday from a height while travelling at speed and it hit tarmac and luckily it still works fine however it no longer has a battery door as it snapped off, but it does show these cameras are really well built and durable.

Wanted a change from dslr so opted for the a6000. Initial impression of the camera is very good. Having used Canon dslr for the past seven year or so i considerd the Canon user interface to be very easy to navigate, however i must say that the a6000 is just as easy to operate! Only took around 400 shots so far so looking forward to using the camera when we go to Norway in August.

happy life, happy sony product, my life is change.

I bought it a month ago and I am enjoying it. I used it to photograph my buddies surfing and some landscape at night and it went great. I'm still learning how to operate it,but I'm happy with the price/bennefit of it.

I bought this over a year ago and it it great then and still is

It was time to replace my older Sony SLR. Was disappointed to find that an adapter was needed to fit my own lenses and this was very expensive.

So pleased with it, and I am now looking at additional lenses.

i just both 4days ago and im a beginner and i want to know how good your product

The A6000 makes it fun and easy to create images. Thaks sony Instagram @blinstig

I bought this camera (two weeks ago) as a step up from an older point and shoot camera and it unquestionably gives greater control. The kit lens gives reasonable photographs, but I do feel these could be better - with a better lens, using a tripod or using the RAW formatting. The clear zoom is very clever, but does seem to lead to pixellation earlier than those taken without. It does, however, give greater flexibility and since I am unlikely to ever print very large images, no one will really notice. With the creative styles (Partial colours, watercolour, high contrast B&W etc) you can create some very appealing images very quickly. My only real gripe so far is that I don't seem to be able to turn the shutter sounds off: surely as this is a mirrorless camera, there needn't be a noise? The batteries could last longer, so if you're going far, get some spares in. So overall, I really like the camera and hope to have many happy years using it. Half the fun of having a camera like this is learning how to get the best from it and I am happily still learning :-)

I have just recently purchased this fantastic little camera. Light and compact, with interchangeable lenses. The quality of the photos with the right lense are amazing. It will take a little time to learn the in and outs of the Sony alpha 6000 But I am looking forward to learning and enjoying it.

This camera has proven to be very god, with the right lens. I use older M42 lenses with an adapter, so I really appreciate the focus peaking and electronic zoom preview that allows accurate manual focusing. The speed of the camera is amazing. The focus is very fast in auto mode with a dedicated lens. The wifi features are very good, with the Android app software being very useful (having Live View) The lack of Live View on my Acer laptop software was a loss, but it seems not all support it. The batteries, in an average environment for temperature, lst quite a decent time for such small batteries. Turning off the wifi helps with this. The real view finder is a wonderful grace. The 5000 doesn't have one and is noticed when gong back to a 5000. The lack of 24p video was a downer, although I can obtain this in NTSC. PAL is of course my preferred for quality. One thing that lets it down is the fact the video and photo settings are intrinsically linked: if I adjust the shutter and aperture in video mode, it keeps that when I switch over to manual photo mode. That does annoy me. I have to say this camera does give good quality and features.

I am used to Canon DSLR camera which is cumbersome and a pain carrying it around. I decided I needed a smaller more portable camera and after a lot of research I decided upon Sony A6000. Well I have to say it was a brilliant decision. It can be used by beginners and professionals. Some of the modes takes the photography out taking great pictures in all sort of conditions, night, twilight sunshine without really blinking. Great camera

Always happy with my dear camera, no complains,easy to learn how to use ,good price and accurate recommendations in Best Buy

I bought this two weeks ago and I am delighted with so far.

Recently bought this camera to use with legacy lenses and find it to be simple but very versatile. Many useful features for example the viewfinder on a bright day is a godsend. As a more mature user the built in focus aids for manual focus are very clever.

Wanted a lighter camera than my old dslr, fits the bill perfectly. Will be after a 6500 when budget permits. Well done Sony.

I bought the Sony A6000 18 months ago as a compact camera for a milestone holiday. Not wishing to carry my DSLR lit around, I wanted something compact that still gave excellent results. Th A6000 fit the bill. While retaining the ability to change lenses if I ever want to it is compact enough to fit in a jacket pocket or my wifes purse. The image results with the standard lens are superb and I now carry it with me nearly all the time.

purchased 4 weeks ago as a holiday /easy to cary camera ,bought with 16 -50 lens ,not a great lens ,wouldnt recommend it as it was slow and fish eye and vignetting problems ,camera itself is a bit over rated for the mobey ,but it does what it says on the box ,almost

Nice piece of kit not heavy or clumsy and hopefully will add more lens when needed

My first camera that doesn’t use film... Great so far!

I purchased the camera one week ago and so far have been disappointed with the colour rendition. I am not sure if the problem is with the camera or my printer. I have changed to shooting in raw to see if this solves the problem.

Bought it a few weeks ago and one thing is more than obvious. I can’t wait to come from work and to go outside to take a zillion of photos. This minute beast is making me healthy that’s for sure. Am I better photographer, well, thats another question. This real aloha is doing its best.

I BOUGHT THIS A MONTH A GO. i LOVE IT. THANK YOU SONY..

purchases 2 weeks ago to replace a bulky DSLR still finding my feet with this camera but very impressed with it up to yet and the size and weight are really good will give it a real workout when we go on safari next month really looking forward to that

I bought this to replace my M8 and to use its leica lenses (with adapter). Has worked perfectly with great image quality.

This camera was to replace my NEX 3 Sony, my new a6000 camera has brilliant new features , Great to have view finder and LED scene.

I bought this camera a week ago and I am very pleased with it. Good picture quality, easy to use, I love the electronic view finder, buttons are very tactile, screen could have been a bit brighter, battery it’s acceptable. I’m really pleased with my purchase. I highly recommend it.

As a retired photographer I wanted to carry smaller camera while retaining the quality of my DSLR and Medium Format. I researched several brands and this fits the bill incredibly well and offered the most for the price. It has the quality I demand in my images and more features than I require but am glad to have. Only con is the "OK wheel and up/down/left/right buttons" around it can easily be changed if not careful such as aperture or ISO accidentally changed. You will get used to it. Defiantly will recommend this camera to anyone.

Bough the camera a few weeks ago as a replacement for a Panasonic , which, in my opinion was giving inferior pictures, I had just sold a Pentax s.l. r and in all honesty can say that this camera is as good , if not better but thir n.f c feature is rubbish. I have a Samsung phone and they will not marry up however hard I try so a little disappointed with this feature , hence the 4 star . However it is a very good camera

Glad to have purchased this after some years away from photography. Excellent features and easy to use.

Bought this camera for a trip to a track meet to see my son race. The camera is a dream to use, fast and friendly. So glad I spent a few more dollars to carry this lightweight and powerful tool.

Product is good and if it is had 70-300mm lens it is very good product

Love it!!! So cool and easy to carry!! Love finding new things

Easy to use, takes great pictures, great travel camera

I've been using Nikon and Canon for over 2 years. I bought this two days ago and it already has impressed me more than the other two brands combined. Beautiful photos, easy to use, charges relatively fast, and the graphite color is just awesome!

Bought a few weeks ago and has not disappointed even with kit lens,when funds become available will upgrade to a 50mm and 55-200mm,ideal size for travels.
