After four years, it is only now that Sony has updated its NEX-6 – one of the most popular compact system cameras the market has ever seen – in the form of the Alpha 6000. The new camera also shares some common features with the equally popular Sony NEX-7 and retains the distinctive NEX body shape,...

With the latest enhancements, Sony's new Alpha A6000 is one of the best CSCs you can buy.

Very good stills and movies; 11 fps burst mode; Super-responsive AF system; Quality EVF and LCD

Kit lens is too limiting; No touchscreen display; Red-dot movie button hard to engage

I agree with the first reviewer in general. However, my priorities are quite different as I am a landscape photographer who earns a living sell prints. If you care about image quality you can hardly do better than the a6000.

Outstanding image quality and the ability to use a very wide variety of lenses

A bit awkward at first if you are new to this type of camera, but not a difficult stretch; Build quality is not Pro level, though still quite good

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.

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.

I use the camera for product photography and have no complaints so far. The screen being tiltable is great and the size and weight is also a bonus. Only thing that stands out as a neucance so far is the battery life but this is a common issue with mirrorless cameras, and buying an extra few...

Durable; Great Features; Great Picture Quality; Lightweight

Battery life

Great product, easy to use and offers very good image quality. Most DSLR users will want one of these eventually. Why because its easy to get on with your work, mimics many much more expensive cameras on the market today.

Quality of images

wish it were little less money for lenses

The mirrorless interchangeable lens camera segment is heating up. We have seen some really good mirrorless cameras across price segments this year. There's certainly more action happening in this segment and the advanced point and shoot segment, than the DSLRs which are just iterating on set design...

First, I am not any species of professional photographer. Have been fascinated by light and shapes, and the drama that lurks there when captured aright, since I prowled Southern California rail yards in the late 50s, happy with the (not-new) entry level 35mm camera slung around my neck.

My Nikon DSLR feels a bit clunky now so time to upgrade. The reviews on this model ticked all the boxes, but it's just not doing it for me. A day out by the quayside in glorious weather produced photos that were fine, but I actually prefer those taken on the oneplus 6 phone.

I recently replaced my NEX-6 with the a6000 and it is every bit as good as I heard it was. I was tempted by Fuji but the Sony is lighter. My only issue is with the 16-50mm kit lens it could and should be better. Five stars for the camera and four stars with this lens.
