Customer Ratings & Reviews

The more you work with digital cameras, the more you realize how important accurate focus is. What makes the Sony A6000 stand out is how fast and how accurately it focuses. I am attaching a head crop from a casual shot of my daughter at the swimming pool, first day I had this camera; lens was a Sony/Zeiss 16-70 F4. Focus just doesn't get any better. There's the new A6300 which is even faster, and with a few more options including S Log 2 and 3 and 4k video, but for hundreds of dollars more. On good thing, the 6300 does us the favor of causing some discounts on the A-6000 that make it just an incredible value. I also have and recommend the Nikon D5500...if it is fairly comparably priced. Either of these cameras regularly produces shots of a quality unknown on any digital camera only 10 years ago. And for both, excellent lenses are available at pretty reasonable prices. But if I had to choose only one, it would be the A6000.

Easy to use and the menus didn't take long to understand. Fast focus and the image quality is great.

I love this camera; granted I've been in the Sony line for some time. I have two other cameras (a5000, NexC3). The real advantage to my way of thinking if you're at the point where you're relying on a review is the speed to focus, and the speed to shoot (11fps). Now there other other features, such as the lock on auto focus that garner attention, but those are the biggies in my book. So, if you're a parent with a fast kid, and you need to capture those moments in between moments, this is a great option. It will help you get there. You can use the manual settings, you can leave it on superior auto (which essentially makes it a glorified point and shoot) but the camera will raise to your level of technicality. You can swap the lenses so if you want a different type of looks, you can do that. you can get a lot of lenses off of Craigslist, you can even get an adapter and go old school with like Minolta or Nikon lenses if you want. This is an all around great camera. A little heavy on the he battery life if I'm being critical, but that's the trade off for speed and focus. Get a few extra batteries and you'll be fine.

This camera is the best camera I have ever used. It focuses so quickly I was able to take a pic of The Flash when he ran by my work. This camera is small I can take pic of anyone without them knowing. Also I feel the image quality is way better than Canon 5D, 6D, or 7D. Sometimes I look at the pic on the big screen and it makes me feel like if I was looking at the actual scene through a window. So realistic. So affordable. Just buy this camera with any money you have.

I previously had a Nikon D3200 DSLR camera and an thoroughly impressed with this Sony! As someone who is still learning to use the settings on my camera the Sony has made the setting easier to understand as the screen shows you how your photo will look differently with different adjustments! Mirrorless has been an adventure for me and I have been recommending to my beginner friends! I have gotten some great shots with this camera & love how lightweight it is compared to a DSLR! The wifi feature has been the best- it makes it so much easier to share!

My first dslr camera. Went with the body only and got a prime lens instead of the kit. Very happy so far, so much better than a phone or point and shoot. Pics are crisp! Camera is not to bulky and great for someone that has no clue what they are doing. From what I have read this will grow with me as opposed to needing replacement

I would consider myself a photo enthusiast and this camera is an excellent addition to my camera bag. I think the sony menu is easy to navigate and setting up the camera was super easy for me. Compared to a full blown DSLR, I believe this compact camera with a good prime lense will give it a run (in most situations)!!!

Great light weight camera with incredible reviews that hold true. Easy to use for a beginner!

Perfect camera for traveling and site seeing. Very light weight and easy to use.

I purchased this as an Open Box Special and I am really happy. The camera looks brand new and is great to shoot with since its a small mirror less SLR. The grip is great and the camera is easy to hold with one hand.

Great camera for beginners, enthusiast, and weekend photographers. Really nice picture quality, light weight, and easy to use.

Love this camera! I'm glad that I chose this model over the A5300. It's the perfect camera for beginners and it's lightweight so you can take it anywhere! I ended up purchasing the body only and upgraded to a more versatile lens.

Best mirrorless camera. This is my 2nd a6000. User friendly, nice apps. Good for video, no 4k but no biggie, love taking videos with this camera.

Great camera. Reliable, easy to use. Many lenses to choose from. This is my second a6000.

The a6000 is a great HD camera. Very simple to use. Turn on, point & shoot. Keep in mind, this body does not have an external mic jack.

This camera is super easy to use and I love it. I had the old version and that one was great also but I had problems with it.

Takes Great pictures Daughter loves it! User friendly I would recommend this Camera to novice photograhers

Easy to read settings. Each feature briefly explains what each mode does, so it gives you an idea of how your picture will turn out. I recommend this camera for newbies.

Awesome camera for startup!!! Durable and super easy to use!

I'm in love with the Sony A6000, especially for traveling.
