Sony A6000

 

The NEX-6 and NEX-7 replacement is a useful upgrade

Low light performance ; Rounded specification ; Solid design ; Good Connectivity

Lacks a standout feature ; LCD could be better

This light-collecting efficiency allows for improved low-light shooting and reduced noise throughout its ISO sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 25,600.

Sony Alpha A6000 review

 

The Alpha A6000 is now even better value

Small size ; Great EVF ; Built-in Wi-Fi & NFC

No touchscreen ; Screen not fully articulated ; Frustrating AF set process

Sony has come within a whisker of creating the perfect CSC in the shape of the A6000, with just a few niggles stopping it being very good indeed.

Sony Alpha 6000 review

 

The Sony A6000 interchangeable lens camera claims world's fastest auto focus

Quick and responsive ; Tilting LCD ; High-resolution APS-C sensor

Blocky ; minimalist design ; No touchscreen ; Battery not as good as A5000

Sony Alpha A6000 review

 

The Sony A6000 is, in some respects, the older NEX-6 reincarnate. Which puts it in good stead: as far as interchangeable lens cameras go, the NEX-6 was one of our favourite small scale models with a built-in electronic viewfinder, so the Alpha A6000...

Keenly priced, built-in electronic viewfinder, tilt-angle LCD, great build quality, impressive high-res image quality, 11fps and AF-S an achievement at this price

Some autofocus accuracy slip-ups, battery life needs to be better, no touchscreen, JPEG processing a little harsh for higher ISO sensitivities

All told the Sony A6000 is an echo of its earlier NEX-6 model, making it a sensible balance of small and light but also powerful and capable of producing great images. We love the built-in electronic viewfinder, tilt-angle LCD screen and the step...

Hands-on: Sony Alpha A6000 review - Pocket-lint

 

Since Sony ditched its NEX name handle it's certainly not ditched the essence of what that interchangeable lens camera line was all about. But now it's

Sony A6000 review

 

Sony's new system camera may be tiny – but it packs a big photographic punch

Incredibly fast, accurate autofocus ; Tiny, lightweight and sturdy ; Big, clear electronic viewfinder ; Impressive still and video quality

No in-body image stabilisation

A superb mid-ranger that puts the “compact” into compact system camera

Review: Sony Alpha 6000 mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera almost has it all

 

Sony's follow-up to its NEX-6 laps the field with its 11fps burst and comfortable design.

The Sony Alpha 6000 has seriously fast continuous shooting for the money, and its design improves upon its predecessor's already excellent one. Plus it's got an extensive feature set.

The movie record button remains annoying, and while it delivers excellent photo quality, it's not best-in-class in low light. It's also slow on startup.

Despite small annoyances, the Sony Alpha 6000 is a great overall camera for more advanced photographers who want something smaller than a dSLR, especially if they need the continuous- shooting speed.

Sony A6000 Is a Near-Flawless Mirrorless Camera That's Super Fast [REVIEW]

 

Priced at just $800, Sony's mirrorless A6000 is the real deal if you're looking to ditch your DSLR.

Outstanding image quality ; Lightweight design with big grip ; Easier to use UI than previous NEX UI

Overly sensitive electronic viewfinder sensor ; Long buffer times after burst shooting ; Oddly positioned movie recording button

The Sony A6000 is another home run for consumers of all skill levels. Sony continues to set the bar high with a lightweight camera design, stunning image quality and incredible speed, all for a reasonable price.

Goondu Review: Sony α6000

 

The α6000 is definitely one mirrorless system to go for, more so when there's an upgrade path to the excellent α7 full-frame camera.
