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.

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
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.
Technically advanced, but the Sony a6300’s controls aren’t in line with the high price
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.
Dont Buy Sony a6000 for Landscape Photography
By seeing many good reviews I bought Sony a6000 before couple of months. I use to do landscape photography.- na

Great point and click and more advance as well
The camera is clearly a great quality camera for the money. But it's not the easiest to use. Especially coming over from your standard DSLR (canon or Nikon). I don't care for the dial by the screen. But it gives you some great quality shots. Just not as easy to adjust on the fly.

The A6300 Is Coming
Four weeks ago at CES 2016 , Sony unveiled a bevy of new products, including a 4K handycam ( AX53 ), a new portable wireless speaker ( h.ear go ) and their "most beautiful 4K HDR TV." But despite the notability of those products, it appears Sony has saved its best for last.
Sony a6300 Review
What format/codec does the 6300 output the video and what NLE software is recommended to use. Does the video file need to be converted first Would you recommend this camera for lifestyle television, keeping in mind to have a external sound recorder How is the 16-50mm lens that comes with it
Sony A6300 blows every mirrorless camera away with insane speed and 4K
The last five months have been really tough. I've been without my trusty Sony A6000 after it suddenly stopped working during my vacation in London last November. After what felt like forever, Sony finally announced the A6300 , the A6000's long-awaited successor. I pre-ordered one as soon as I could.
