    I read every review on this Sony A6100 camera....and perhaps that was a mistake. I guess I was ready to be blown away! Now, don't get me wrong, this is a VERY nice camera, hence the 4/5 stars. I really love the smaller size and the flip up "vlogging" screen works great! My biggest complaint has to do with the quality of the photos. They are not mind-blowing. I am not a pro photographer by far and it takes really nice pictures but that's about it. Pics just don't wow me as they tend to be sometimes out of focus or when you zoom in, the details tend to pixelate quickly. I mean, my Samsung Note 20+Ultra phone seems a very close 2nd in quality. Should that even be the case? You can decide.
