    Very happy with this purchase. It is a great camera to start photography with and is fairly easy to use with minimal knowledge of photography. Excited to learn more about the settings and how to use it for photos

    I had the Sony 6000 and loved it. I do a lot of hiking and take it on all my walks. It is lightweight and takes great photos. You can easily send the photos to your phone. I updated to the 6100 due to an unfortunate accident while hiking. I took quite a fall and the camera stopped working properly. I am. Very happy with the updated 6100

    The Sony A6100 is a great camera for beginners and professionals alike. High-quality photo and video in 4K. Great for all kinds of photography and videography needs. Interchangeable lens allow for a ton of versatility for projects. I have two because they're great cameras.

    It's a great camera but I would warn people about the type of lens you choose to go with this camera. I have a tamron 17-70 and it blocks the flash. it's a bummer because I have to purchase a smaller len or larger flash

    I absolutely love this camera! I have a blog channel where I do make up reviews and the screen being able to flip helps tremendously. Easy to hold in my hand. The lenses are expensive, but this was a great start.
