Good purchase
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There is no perfect camera. I'm glad with this purchase. I feel I can do more with this camera than the one I was using. I'm planning to get a telephoto lense to try out the camera.

Good camera, but so much to learn
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just started using my camera and there's so much to learn- it could be a bit overwhelming. So far, I have an issue with my short lens: the focus is not that sharp.

Sony discontinued the Imaging Edge Mobile app.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony discontinued the Imaging Edge Mobile app that controls this A6100, so it is difficult to even download photos. You can still just use the flash drive in your computer. And Bluetooth will not pair, so location is not saved.

Posted .Hi Bryan, Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. We're sorry to hear that there must be a misunderstanding. Although Sony has introduced the new Creator Cloud App to enhance content sharing experience, the Imaging Edge Mobile App is not being discontinued. A number of our cameras will still be able to use the Imaging Edge Mobile App such as this Sony A6100 camera currently. You will still be able to pair via Bluetooth for the location link and download photos via the Imaging Edge Mobile App if you wish or use a memory card reader to optimize your download speed. If you need any assistance or have more questions, please contact Sony Support at 239-245-6360. We would love to offer any help. Thank you again. -Linda Sony Social Support

Where's The Zoom?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this camera recently. When using the 210 lens the subject does not zoom in close, it appears distant. I got better zoom from my average 18x point & shoot Canon camera, this is very disappointing. This camera is hard to work with, I read great reviews about auto focus and saw very good close up photos, I am not getting that result.

Not worth the price and bad picture quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the worst purchase I have made ever on a camera. Poor poor picture quality. Even after using the E55-210 mm lens the quality of picture when zoomed in doesn't give a great picture quality. Disappointed for the price it is. Not at all worth. There are much better cameras for lesser price and great picture quality.

Maybe if you're on a budget and want a big sensor
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The vignetting of images from these kit lenses is unacceptable. This is a problem on both lenses. You won't tell if you don't look for it. However if you are taking a picture of a white refrigerator, wall or anything that should look white around the edges of the frame you'll see a lot of shadow. I recommend getting the body and a good lens separate.

A Great Camera at an Affordable Price Point.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the weight and size of this camera. I’m a hobbyist and I’m just getting started. The price point for the kit was super affordable. Sony should think of including a USB-C adapter in the package along with the charger.
