    Moving from the RX-100 II, the a6100 is a very nice upgrade in capabilities. The kit lenses included aren’t necessarily the best, but with the kit you can have mode situations covered and get excellent pictures. The biggest issues I have with it is the rolling shutter when recording videos, but it’s still an amazing value despite this issue.

    I’ve had this camera for about a month and I love it! When I first got it I was pretty confused on all of its functions, but over time I’ve become accustomed to it so now I know how to function all of it’s settings. It’s a great camera for both photos and videos. I highly recommend it.

    I got this camera as my first mirrorless / DSLR and it has been phenomenal. The automatic function on the camera is great, while it still allows for more in depth custom controls, which has been great for encouraging me to learn more about my camera and how to use it.
