Super camera for both the novice and advanced photographer. Compact in the hand and high-quality photos. Really recommended.

Photo quality in this camera is unmatched in this price range. The focus of this device is super fast, making sports and street photography a great experience. For portrait photography, you can enable face and eye detection to take very sharp photos. To get the most out of the camera, it is best to shoot in RAW as the JPG compression is quite rough. Very fine camera, especially in combination with the Sony prime lenses such as the 35mm or 50mm 1.8! Recommended!

In 2017, the A6000 is still a relevant mirrorless system camera. The quality of the APS-C sensor is still good and the possibilities of the camera are sufficient to satisfy the most critical hobby photographer. The autofocus is one of the best and fastest on the market. The included kit lens (16-50mm) is practical but not a high flyer.
My biggest complaint is that this camera from 2014 is still relatively expensive while there are already 2 successors (6300 and 6500). Sony is also very bad with the supplied accessories: no body cap, no (rear) lens cap and no external charger. Even a plastic insert around the hot shoe was too much trouble. Come on Sony!
Furthermore, the screen cannot go into 'selfie' mode (because of the viewfinder that is in the way). You can solve this by using the app on your smartphone, but it is not convenient & fast. The emphasis is also on shooting, which is evident from the fact that this camera can "only" handle 1080p.
Nevertheless, because of the viewfinder, the many settings and the fast autofocus, the camera is still an excellent choice in 2017 if photography is your main focus. It is advisable to buy an extra lens asap, preferably a "prime" lens. In that respect, the Sigma 30mm F1.4 DC DN (C) SE is a good candidate.
