||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Phenomenal Camera For Entry to Medium Level
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

the reason to buy a Sony
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The reason to buy a Sony 6000 series camera is the autofocus system: absolutely industry leading in every way. That said, however, there is no other compelling reason to buy a Sony 6000 series camera: • It feels like a computer, not a camera. • extraordinarily poor physical design (everything has to be operated with the same thumb) • Too few manual controls on-body (see Fuji and Olympus for the way to do it) • No Image Stabilization (Olympus puts it in far less expensive cameras and it is industry best) • Worst menu system on the market • expensive lens lineup • Poor build quality • No fun to shoot with. • excessive noise at high ISO (my micro 4/3 has less noise on a MUCh smaller sensor) • Poor colour science (see Fuji) BUT: it DOES have KILLER autofocus, and that may be enough. I'll be keeping mine because I have a 4 year old and I don't want to miss the moments...but the day Fuji or Olympus AF catches up, this thing will be on a yard sale table.

Posted .Sony commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. High-quality movie recording and high-speed continuous shooting require large amounts of power. Therefore, if you continue to shoot, the temperature inside the camera will rise, especially that of the image sensor. The Help Guide is available online at the following link.
