[@hellzz8585]

The a6000 is an amazing camera for its price, it is the perfect entry point for anyone who would like to try photography but can't afford the more expensive aspc or full frame cameras. It's what I started on and have upgraded to the a6400. I thought about going full frame but the cameras and lenses are too expensive to justify if your just a hobbyist trying to get better photos of your kids/pets.

[@LochamoEzung]

Hey brosky please help me real quick I beg you. . So I’m planning to take SonyA6000 mainly for a videography therefore is it worth it if I take it for real ?

Go for the a6300 or a6400 instead. I kind of think the A6100 is pointless. The A6300 costs what the A6000 cost before the A6100 came out and you get a better viewfinder among other benefits.

[@alexhiguera8753]

it shoots raw and shoots fantastic 1080p; it means that it can be good enough in 5 more years. Pair it with some kick ass glass and lots of creativity and it can last even longer.

[@0ooTheMAXXoo0]

almost all films released in the cinema including all the Marvel movies were done at 2k resolution, so just a tiny bit better than 1080p. There has also been movies released in theaters that were shot on standard definition video cameras. So, yes, 1080p is plenty and still image quality is just as good as the newest cameras apart from maybe a slight improvement in low light in the newest cameras.

A6000 was my first real camera. I loved it. Now I’ve upgraded to an A7Riii. Don’t regret learning on that little beast of a camera. It’s just crazy that 5 years later it’s still $450

[@TheCosmonaut]

Would you say the a600 at $450 or a6100 at $750 is better? I like the new features of the a6100, but I'm not sure they are worth an extra $300, almost double the price. Looking as a first serious camera, shooting more landscapes than people. Nighttime sky photography is important as well.

[@Cachua15]

Benjamin Gartside if you are getting a first serious camera and not gonna shoot tons of video I would save the $300 and invest it in some good quality glass (lenses). A6000 did great all around for me. I took it on vacations, shot landscapes and took it to theme parks. I then sold it to a friend and she is loving it.

I have to borrow my friends EOS R whenever i do commercial shoots, and honestly i hate that camera.

As a A6000 owner that shoots mainly landscapes and little video it doesn’t seem that any of the new Sony crop cameras would give me significantly better results . I’m considering FF. How does the a6400 compare to the 6100 for stills?

[@JasonVong]

probably the same as well.

[@kozys_korner7952]

I'm in the same boat. I have a a6000 and looking to upgrade to FF. But for traveling I'm sure the 6k series is easier to pack.

[@nikokane5]

Matthew Koz I hear you. I’m a backpacker so the lower weight of the APC was a plus not to mention I already have a few APC lenses. I was hoping the A6600 would have had upgrades to the sensor. Not sure if I’m ready yet to commit to FF. I was thinking maybe get a A7R11 and start there.

Interesting comparison, for me a used 6000 is the winning option. Reserve money for the lenses !

Hi Jason and Vivian, Oh my, the a6000 was my first Sony camera, ha,ha and I am now mostly shooting with the a7iii (finally jumped to full frame after first bumping up to the a6500 for the in body stabilization) but I sometimes miss the portability of the smaller APS-C cameras.

I had an a6000 for a few of years (my first camera), invested in 2 of the 1.4 Sigma lenses, the 30mm macro, then finally the 90 G Macro. I recently found a basically brand new A7R II at an amazing price and grabbed it. 2 Days later I sold all my APS-C gear (I had no intention of doing so). The A7R II made the a6000 feel like a toy. My photographer friend told me to move up to FF instead of an a6400 or a6600, and now I know why. The a6000 is a great camera for a beginner and someone on a budget if you buy used, but if you can afford it, go right to FF.
