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.
Pros:
- Outstanding image quality and the ability to use a very wide variety of lenses
Cons:
- 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

Sony Alpha 6000 review
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,...

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 arrives with high expectations.
Pros:
- 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
Cons:
- Some autofocus accuracy slip-ups
- battery life needs to be better
- no touchscreen
- JPEG processing a little harsh for higher ISO sensitivities

After using the Sony A6000 for a few months on two separate occasions, I can honestly say that it is one of the most capable and versatile mirrorless cameras on the market. With its compact and lightweight camera body, comfortable grip, fast and accurate hybrid autofocus system, bright and...

Sony A6000
Sony's new a6000 is an update of the Sony NEX-6 , a very well-regarded CSC that managed to stay the course for a good four years. That it lasted so long is testament to how special it was, given the brief shelf-life of new models nowadays.
Pros:
- Low light performance
- Rounded specification
- Solid design
- Good Connectivity
Cons:
- Lacks a standout feature
- LCD could be better
