Sony Alpha A6300
This camera is considered one of Sony’s mid-range models—with the Sony A6000 as its lower counterpart, and the Sony A7 II as it’s higher level counterpart. The specs on this camera aim to impress even the fussiest of photographers. It’s a great looking camera too and is easy to handle & operate. Let’s look at some of the other features.
The battery on this camera is also a feature worth mentioning due to its staying power during your shoots. Your camera battery should be able to last approximately 400 photos in, before the battery needs recharging.
The Sony Alpha A6300 has a 24MP sensor with a shooting rate of 11 frames per second. There’s a built-in flash which has an incredible sync speed of 1/160 seconds. The AF system on the camera is hybrid, and boasts an impressive 425 PDAF points. Among other features, one more is worth mentioning; the OLED 2.36M-dot with a 120fps refresh option which will lend a hand to the quality of your photographs.
In addition to these photography features, the Sony Alpha A6300 also has some convenient video recording abilities. 4K is the hero here, with resolution settings of 3840 x 2160 (30p) and 1920 x 1080 (120p/60p). Although the camera is primarily designed for regular photography, you’ll enjoy the quality of these videos as well.
A newer model Sony Alpha A6400 was released in January 2019.

Sony Alpha A6300 Mirrorless Camera First Look Review (Full Resolution Test Images)
Judging by its understated model designation it would be easy to conclude that the Sony Alpha A6300 mirrorless camera is simply an upgraded Alpha A6000 with 4K video capture added to its already impressive feature set.
If you are into Video, this is where you can start.
I bought it from Sony centre and I am still on the learning curve. The grip feels good, the exterior material feels really sturdy. Takes great pictures with good lighting conditions and also good at low light if you use the correct settings. The best i would say in this price range.
Tried to love it
First let me say Crutchfield is fantastic. First purchase from them and will again. For the product, this a6300 is not as good at still images as I would have liked (using SEL 55-210mm lens).- Build quality
- Weight
- Compact
- Low light video/stills
- Silent mode
- Fast burts
- 4K video and better 1080p rates
- Can't get clean stills with all shots
- Expensive lens options
- Battery life
- No touch screen or able to reverse the screen position
- Screen resolution not as clear as its rivals
Top quality compact camera for pictures and v4k video. Highly recomended
Great camera shame Very lowered the price after I purchased it!
I didn't use my DSLR much so I went for a smaller mirrorless camera instead. It does have a cropped sensor but takes great pictures and event better videos. The strap attachment makes jangling noises that come into the video
Love the camera, hate the poor battery life
Still learning the ropes with this camera, but in awe of the variety of features and complex functionality available. Camera is also very well designed from an ergonomic viewpoint, easy to hold and very comfortable to use. But am rather shocked at how short the battery life is.
Sony Alpha A6300 Mirrorless Camera Body Only - 24.2MP APS-C Exmor CMOS Sensor, 3.0" 921.6k-Dot Tilting LCD , Built-in WiFi with NFC Support , UHD 4K30 & 1080p120 Recording
Very capable camera, weather sealing and a magnesiaum alloy body don't add too much of a weight penalty compared to its little brother A6000. It also has a full metal lens mount if you are planning to use heavier lenses.
Great, but not amazing. May have problems!
Don't let the size fool you! I own a Sony Handycam HDRXR550VE for video, and a Nikon D5100 for stills. I was hoping the Sony A6300 would replace both of these cameras so I could have an 'all-in-one' solution. Was I wrong Possibly. Read on... Now don't get me wrong, this is one great camera!
