I Bought This Camera This Week & I Am So Happy That I Did.

This is an awesome camera! Got this to replace my NEX-5R and it is great. Only thing I dislike is that it does not have a touchscreen like the NEX-5R I use to have. Easy to use!

I bought my A6000 over a month ago as an upgrade from my RX100 M3. It's a great entry level camera on the A6xxx series and I am quite happy with it so far. For the money paid, it's excellent value! I am a bit disappointed with Sony's app store as I can't purchase apps through the camera. Also, there's a limited availability of (pricey) native Sony lenses, however Sigma fills that gap perfectly by making amazing glasses for Sony E-mount at an affordable price.

Bought recently and very pleased with results so far.

I know this camera is being by passed by newer models but it still represents excellent value for the amateur photographer. I think additional Sony lenses are a little expensive but I have had very good results with both the 16mm 2.8 ( northern lights) and the 30 mm 3.5 macro which are reasonably priced.

BOUGHT THIS CAMERA THIS WEEKEND JUST TRYING TO UNDERSTAND ITS VOPERATION

I’ve been using this camera for quite a while now and I can find nothing negative to say about it. It is a beautiful camera to use. Light, a good range of lenses, very intuitive menu, very little noise up to 3200iso. The only camera I would change it for is a full frame Sony mirrorless ( if I could afford one) but even then I would retain this as a backup.

a6000 makes great photos and videos, the choice was prompted by a profi photographer friend, and I have not been disappointed so far - RAW or JPG (or both) 11fps when shooting movind object and still in same good resolution, the colours are natural and not distorted, HD videos are great. The only noticeable challenge was to find the software that would allow to work with Sony RAW format (ultimately found throuhg the same Sony website) if you do not want to buy Ps or Lr. Great camera, especially if one buys a couple of suitable lenses for specific tasks with it. The lense that comes with it is a very good all-arounder too.

I use the camera 3-4 times per week, for snapshots and for landscape photography. Great pictures and fantastic tools integrated to have professional look a like pictures.

All what I miss is a touch screen. But I knew that before ordering.

I bought this camera couple days before going to a rock festival but only had the 16-50 lens as the 55-210 lens could only be delivered at a later date that being said I got some great pics in the challenging light conditions on stage very very happy with it then when I got back and picked up the longer lens went to the local country park

Only had this for approx 2 week, but so far a great camera. Bought from Sony Centre in Leeds, fantastic service....i had visited the shop a few times before buying though). I still have my older Sony NEX F3(so to navigate the menu system on the new A6000 wasn't too bad), but sold a larger DSLR to get this A6000. Very fast focussing, and fantastic continuous shooting. Fits my coat pocket too which is a bonus.

Bought this 2 weeks ago and still trying to get to grips with all of its features. It is not intuitive to use. The complete lack of a user manual, other than ‘Online’ is a complete failure by Sony to recognise that not all users would have ‘Online’ access especially when outdoors. Even then the online manual is hard to find and follow easily. As for trying to use remote functions and connect to Sony Memories Mobile, forget it! read all the forums where this is covered, it is not a good revue and will show that Sony have not listened to their customer for a number of years.

I used to have SLR cameras before, usually Pentax, but since the digital revolution, I have stuck to compacts and lately my phone, but the results are often disappointing. Now I am retiring, and the price of this sort of quality has come down, I decided to try ILC again, hoping that I will have more time for hobbies. Had this just over a week now, so early days, but so far I am really pleased with it. Still learning all the things it can do. the wireless control is useful, just wish I could use it via my AP, not just direct connection, but I expect there are reasons for that. I bought it with an additional 55-210 zoom lens, haven't really had a chance to use that yet. The menu system could be better, but the amount of info available in the screen and the EVF is great. No touch screen, but I actually prefer that.

Bought as a travel camera because my DSLR is too bulky. Really impressed with quality of pictures, features and ease of operation.

I have been an SLR user for 15 years and looked down on “compacts” but I am a reformed man! This camera does everything and more that my SLR does.....

Very modern camera nice and compact. It would help me if there was a easier instruction booklet for novices like myself. But I have use the cameras different settings, but as there is a quite a lot, an aid memoir style would be good. K Elliott

The camera was purchased for a holiday where I didn't want to have a large DSLR to carry. It performed really well and was very easy to use once I'd got used to the differences in the UI. Photos turned out very well and I was very happy with the purchase. Battery life could be better.

I have been using my Sony A200 and A58 for some years now but was finding them just too heavy to carry around for any length of time. Having looked at the A6000 for some time and after talking to a Sony demonstrator in a local photo retailer I decided to take the plunge and invest. After initial tests against my other camera on various subjects, I was impressed with the performance of the A6000. So much so that I rarely use either of them now as the A6000 is so convenient to have with me, especially at times when I would not have taken one of the others. The image quality is excellent, focus extremely fast and accurate. If you want a compact camera with a good large image sensor, and the ability to use other lenses I recommend you to by the Sony A6000.

i bought this for a new hobby, glad i did as its a quality product

I wanted something more versatile than a compact camera but smaller than an SLR. I have not been disappointed. The kit lenses provided cover most of the range I could want, the quality of the images is great, and the range of settings is comparable to a reasonable SLR. Wifi connection is an added bonus, so I can download photos to my phone or use it as a remote control. This particular model also has a viewfinder, which many compacts don't, and is a bonus in bright light. Overall, very happy. I will use it a lot.

Everything I have tried in the little time I have had the camera works perfectly.

I bought this product as a replacement for a DSLR which was too big & bulky for my beginner photography needs.

I have been using this camera for 2 months and it's brilliant to use. Light to carry and suitable for any occasion. Excellant colour rendition and image quality with lots of detail.

Brought this a couple of weeks ago and it’s definitely living up to it’s reputation of being one of the best mirrorless cameras on the market, quick focus, amazing picture quality and details and this is from using the stock lens !

bought this camera as a place to start out! LOVE it the photos that it takes with ease are brilliant. I did buy another lens for it however the kit lens is that good that i have swapped back to it for general day to day photography. It lightweight, and easy to carry around.

I call it ultra slim... a multipurpose in a little frame. From street photography to adventuring in West Africa...It’s been an amazing experience!

Since i have had this camera i have gotten my moneys worth out of it. clear images, great light capturing, and easy to use configuration.

As a novice I am keen to learn and to take good quality photographs . The Sony A6000 is absolutely wonderful and exceeds all expectation .

Bought a couple of months ago, moved up from point and shoot camera, the Sony a6000 is a great camera with great features still learning how to use them but having fun doing so.

I bought this a month and half ago, I am very happy that A6000 has adaptive with vintage lens functions. if you are concern about expensive lens. Also in general performance are good for photo beginners.

Excellent camera very good camera very happy with it

This is an amazing Camera, best on the market. Highly recommend having a look

Bought this as a compliment to my A5100 as I wanted a viewfinder and it was a bargain in a 1 day only price on Amazon. Image quality is the same as the A5100 i.e. excellent (they share the same sensor and much of the software). Feels well made and a pleasure to use and good to have some dials for a change, the only negatives being the so-so battery life and lack of touch screen which I miss from the A5100.

Absolutely love this camera, it's a definite upgrade from my previous Sony bridge camera. The kit lens that came with the camera does a good job at various things but isn't great for long range (due to low zoom range) or portrait (aperture lowest level is 3.5) so I am now in the market for more lenses. Definitely recommend the camera but if you know what kind of photos you want to take then get a package that includes a lens suitable for your needs

Fantastic value ultra professional live how the iso changes can be seen

Great little camera and with 16-55 and 55-210 lenses I have a good range of focal lengths. Bought this as a lightweight holiday kit as I normally use a very heavy proffesional DSLR and lenses so needed something to give me quality without weight.

I bought the product a few weeks ago but have already lots of fun with the camera and made beautiful pictures.

I bought this camera having talked to a friend who is a member of a local camera club/

Great item, very simple to use and the navigation in the menu. Beautiful pictures, very fast focus. I love it

I bought this to replace an EOSM3 and I’m impressed with the ease of set up and use. Easy to programme the custom buttons, decent battery life, pocketable. Good results so far with a variety of manual adapted lenses.

Its a compact camera, but has great capability to capture nice images.

I bought this camera one month ago and I'm very happy with it. It's easy to use (of course you need to try things first). The only thing I don't like that much is that the battery get's low so fast... Further this is really a great camera!

I treid to connect my A6000 with my Iphone 8, but the connection fails.

I am satisfied with the services of the camera and the quality of the pictures taken. Mistakes / shortages: *battery recharging is through the camera and not a separate charger *the cover of the lens cannot be attached to the camera, it can easily be lost

Bought this camera for starting to play with photography. I soon found out that with cheap adapters it is possible to use vintage lenses on this camera. It's very cool and very addictive :-) . Offcourse the camera is great quality. Only cons are the small batteries (buy an extra one with the camera) and small things like not able to mute the shutter.

superb product, from camera, mobile phones, play station & TV all SONY

Best price to best quality! Good codition. Quiet zoom

Sony 6000 is perfect camera. Light in use and perfect features.

I bought the a6000 a month ago, it's better than my last Sony camera which was aim and shoot, You have to set the camera up for your own style of photo's,i've had very good results indoor & outdoors.

Nice and compact, plenty of lens options, durable.

I gought this a month ago and so happy that l did good camera, the small one makes very good photos and is a fast good quality of the photos

I bought one month ago and I have take many photos...I m absolutely satisfied

I use the camera more tha my DSLR . No need to carry in my bag .

I bought this just over a year ago and am now advancing to using a flash gun as night class. I am having serious problems getting any flash system to fire and have read on the internet many people experiencing the same problem. Love everything else had nex 5 before I upgraded just very disappointed with this hot shoe problem.

I went into the shop to buy a camera that I could be more adventurous with (don’t be rude!) and was shown this awesome beast. The camera functions and ability is absolutely class and can not fault it at all. Even the night time shots are beyond expectation.

Great little mirrorless camera, came with a couple of excellent lenses. The sensor is great for its size producing very clear photos. the auto-focusing is extremely quick and the majority of the selects the right subject. The only complaint that I would have is that some of the features that would be expected to come as standard on this sort of camera come as paid-for applications in the PlayMemories store (e.g. time lapse and mobile remote).

I bought the Alpha 6000 2 weeks ago and have been using it nearly every day since. No matter in which mode I use it, it's easy to handle in every way. It's easy and fast to change all basic settings to get the desired picture. The kit lens is pretty sharp, auto-focusing is fast - and last, but not least, the automatic settings and scene possibilities provides really good pictures. The video function is easy to use, fast and provides very good recordings. A really good and handy camera.
