Why I Switched to the Sony A6000

[@karlreyes2064]

What's the Pentax lens and adapter?

Well, I'm convinced. I'm in the market for a quality mirrorless camera primarily for the purpose of shooting video. I love the idea of using old manual lenses with new cameras. When i saw your results I was convinced. Thank you sir

[@freddiedadumb]

FOMH you should check out the panasonic gh4, it is much more video oriented! It also supports 4k and adapting to older or other mounts is a breeze

[@fomh]

Thanks freddie, i'll check it out.

[@RanggaDjati]

but GH4 is way more expensive

[@freddiedadumb]

Rangga Djati yup, but for his purposes I think it would be a perfect choice, pay more but get much more. I for one could not work daily with the a6000. The difference between the two is astounding.

[@RanggaDjati]

What about a6500? It got 4K and still cheaper than GH4?

[@rsanchez9192]

Omg!!! Was researching knowing nothing and you demystified the subject for my Christmas purchase for my son. Unbelievably accuracy and spot on to the point. Thank you very much. You saved me hundreds of dollars.

[@arevir68rivera]

I switched from a Nikon D7000 to the Sony a6000, and haven't looked back since! By the way; selecting 'Monitor' (disabling viewfinder) in the settings menu on the a6000 prevents battery drain. Also, when not in use, turn off Wi-fi.

[@ValladaoMateus]

What about the overheating?

[@NiqHowie]

Ive been shooting the past week in 100 + degree weather without issue...

[@ValladaoMateus]

NiqHowie That's good to hear. I hope it doesn't.

[@NiqHowie]

+CallmeMat I hear the a6300 overheats with continued use of 4K video shooting. The a6000 stock 16-50mm lens is pretty good but I had TWO brand new cameras with faulty lenses. One right after the other. But the one I have now is great. I also have the 55-210mm lens and a couple of canon FD lenses, a Pentax 50mm f2.0, and a canon EF 50mm 1.8 II

[@therobinjohn]

if you are shooting for longer than an hour or so continuously you will experience some over heating. I have friends with a7's and they over heat. Its a common issue unfortunately

[@DScott-be7pg]

I am sold. the fact that you can get cheap adapters AND lenses is a big appeal to me. thanks for the video 👍

[@timothymadrid7462]

Regarding battery life, the first thing you should do (before even playing with any of camera settings) is to go into the wifi section under menu, and turn on airplane mode. You can turn it on if you're syncing with a smartphone or the PlayMemories app, but with airplane mode, you will be able to save a lot more battery life-especially when the camera is off.

[@YoungDen]

A6000 works like a charm and with Ziess lens hits the sweet spot. I use 24mm 1.8, 16-70mm f4 and 55-200mm lens and those are all I need.

[@carloss6383]

I’m in the car scene so I absolutely love taking pictures and I’ve been wanting a camera for the longest not but never knew what to get I watched this video when you posted it and now I just purchased my own A6000, thank you! Keep up the great work I will stay subscribed for long time to come

[@ashevilletrainman6989]

IMPORTANT: for those looking to get into filming or KZbin, and wanting a better camera (like me), and trying to decide from a 200 dollar handycam, or an expensive camera like the Sony a6000, GO WITH THE A6000! Why? Let's see. If you are really serious about filming and thinking about doing it for a really long time, if you buy a cheap ish camera after a while you will long for better quality. Instead of buying the 200 dollar one, save up for a little while, get the more expensive camera, get a good mic, and save yourself from wasting a camera.

[@bobjohnson6131]

is it still worth getting in 2018? or are there better options? I'm looking at the rx100 v for just its pocketability so i'm torn between that and the a6000..

[@Ric9hardify]

I have the a6000. I have used the heck out of it. But when I need my wow factor, I go to my Canon. From an artistic perspective, Canon is actually my go to. For the type of photography I do, I found that the a6000 and the a6400 just doesn't cut it. I don't switch, I just use both systems for their strengths. Also the compactnesss and ability of the alphas have aloud me to get a shot I could never take with my cannon, although the RP could probably do it. So, it's not about what is better, because the Sony's have been so frustrating at what would be a breeze with a Canon. But some shots would be almost impossible to take without the Sony. That's why you go to school for art to learn the subtle differences of your tools and medium, inorder to create a certain vision. True artists never say I switched from oils to acrylics, they use both to their advantage depending on what they are creating.

I bought the A6000 6-8 years ago, then the A6600 4 years ago. My a6600 worked great but was stolen earlier this year, so I decided to wait for the hoped for A6700 that just came out. I was excited, just as you were, for this update, and loved your video (one of the best) on the new camera. I just now caught your video on the A6000, so very satisfying to see how this camera series has grown on you, and how your own video channel has matured over the years :). Congrats :)

[@snakebait4244]

This is like one of the best reviews I've ever seen

[@Bunce1949]

Excellent review. I bought the a6000 last year, here in the UK at a good price due to a Sony summer special offer. I have been using a Canon 40D for years, and found it to be a very reliable camera. A brief experience with the Canon 7D Mk II was enjoyable due to its quality and results, but I just found it was far too heavy for travel photography. Sadly it had to go, and I bought the a6000 which has been brilliant. I agree with all your comments, battery life is much less than my 40D, but I also bought a charger and a couple of batteries on Amazon. As you remarked, the E-fit lenses are stupid prices, so I'd be interested in an adaptor to make use of any of the lenses I all ready have. I have a Pentax ME Super from years ago, with a 1.4 lens, so maybe I'll follow your lead and try it!

[@Anjediva]

I upgraded from my canon to Sony a6000 this July 2016. I m so happy with my decision now. A friend of mine bought a6300 I did nt find major difference in terms of image quality though. Except the fact a6300 is a 4K but I don't know how does that matter for someone who is just shooting portrait and close ups. I may b wrong in my openion. Could u please suggest best lenses to work with this a6000? For fashion blog photography purpose. Thanks! Cheers!

[@ArthurR]

Check out my newest videos. I would recommend the SEL50F18 as a good portrait lens.

[@AndersMagrioteli]

Having used Nikon since the late 1980s, it wasn't easy to change to Sony. All those buttons, wheels and all other stuff I was used to suddenly "were in the wrong places". But, it is always a but, now I am on my third Sony (since summer of 2013). I had a Sony a65 (which was excellent in all aspects). However, five different lenses and an external flash is a load to carry on when going abroad. It also yells: "Pinch my stuff!" I sold it this summer and bought a Sony HX60V. That camera has an amazing zoom, however it ends there. "Point and shoot" (with "wait" in between) is good for a bright sunny day. So, I went on Internet and looked first at a Sony A7, but I fell in love with this α6000. The Sony α6000 kit I bought came with the 16-50 (f/3,5--5,6) lens and a 55-210 (f/4,5-6,3). Of course, not the best lenses on the planet, however the camera's performance is balancing these lenses shortcomings. I like to believe in that for now. However, with an adapter one can use a bunch of different lenses (of course with an adapter that fits). I will go for a better fixed lens in a (as I hope) short future. E.g. "Samyang 35mm f/1,2 ED AS UMC CS". I am a coward when it comes to buying second hand lenses. I know, silly. Enough said. The α6000 is an amazing camera for its price. Small, fast, accurate, intelligent, silent and... I said small. One negative thing is the absence of GPS. Both my previous Sony's had GPS built in. I dare to say that GPS is among the coolest things when it comes to taking photos in places that aren't "at home" (abroad, or what ever). Thanks for sharing your words about the camera. Happy shooting!

[@evafontijn4114]

Thank you for the clear review! I have a Nikon D3300 and bought the Sony A6100 a few days ago. I need to replace my D3300 since it is to old and I am thinking about making the step to mirrorless beacuse the autofocus is great and because of the compact format. I didn’t sell my Nikon yet. I tried the camera for a few times and I am very excited!! The image quality is amazing! And seeing your review of the A6000 (pretty much the same camera) it gave me inspiration to buy old prime lenses and put it with an adapter to my a6100! Thank you very much! As is said already, you are straight to the point and inspirational! I subscribed!

[@hollielou2436]

What is the name of the batteries you purchase on Amazon for this camera?

[@colslw760]

I've been wanting to make the switch to a more compact camera such as a mirrorless for a while - my Canon doesn't get much action nowadays because of how big and bulky it is. The Sony a6000 came up on my radar and after seeing some test shots and video footage I really started considering getting this. Now after seeing your video I am ITCHING to get this thing, it's freakin awesome!

[@svtcontour]

you do realize you can adapt vintage lenses to the Canon as well right?

[@NuntiusLegis]

But it seems hard to get them focussed. Canon SLRs have no EVF, not even focus peaking on the display out of the box, you must install 3rd party firmware for that which risks your warranty. The affordable Canon SLRs also don't seem to have a split image screen in the OVF, and for some reason installing one is not always easy and is reported to cause problems with autofocus. This kind of expected headache made me buy a used Sony A 3000, which is mirrorless but has the look and feel and good grip of a small SLR for 160 Euros with focus peaking just there.

[@svtcontour]

Its no different on a Canon than doing manual focus with a native canon lens. One can also just enable live view and do the focus that way if the viewfinder is not to be used.

[@NuntiusLegis]

Canon cameras don't have focus peaking which is vital for manual focussing, unless you install the 3rd party software "Magic Lantern" which risks your warranty. Even if you risk that, you only have focus peaking on the display and not in the viewfinder, which also lacks focussing aids like split image, unless you fiddle with a special viewfinder screen, which can become expensive and complicated. I wanted a camera that allows to use the viewfinder with vintage lenses out of the box, so I decided to buy a Sony camera.

[@svtcontour]

Again, this has nothing why you decided to go with a sony camera. My statement is that Vintage lenses can be adapted to Canon - and its function is no different in manual mode than any other canon lens.

[@NuntiusLegis]

It seems you don't read my comments. My statement is that vintage lenses can indeed be adapted to Canon as well (although with problems and rather expensive adapters in some cases because the Canon EOS flange focal distance is longer than that of Sony E-Mount) - but it is harder to focus them manually due to the lack of focussing aids compared to Sony cameras, as pointed out in detail. I researched into it because I wanted to use my vintage lenses (mounts: Exakta and M42) and found Canon would have been too much of a headache.

Very helpful video. Thank you. It is helping me solidify my decision. The kit lens gets some poor reviews, but the adage, "A carpenter never blames his tools" comes to mind.

@@saucyjack8548 thanks a lot man I really appreciate the reply and thanks for the info think the a6000 will be my second camera I own a dsc-w310 but want something more and I rather the mirror less cameras than DSLR soo I think this a6000 is a good selection of a camera

[@stevestruthers6180]

I used to own a Canon T2i. I sold it and bought a Sony a6000. One of the reasons I went with the Sony is that it's much more compact, to say nothing of lighter, than the T2i. Another reason is that it has an electronic viewfinder that shows 100% of the image (or very close to it) and I find this works better for me because I wear glasses and can see the whole viewfinder. Although I still have trouble understanding why, in this day and age, Canon still use optical viewfinders when virtually all of their competitors have gone with EVFs, with issues like lag and blackouts having long since been fixed. Not long after I got the camera, I noticed a dramatic improvement in the quality of the images I was shooting. Sure, the T2i uses image sensor technology that's at least seven years old. And the difference in resolution isn't that great, 24MP for the Sony versus 18 for the T2i, or just six megapixels. But it's clear the sensor tech in the a6000 plus the generally excellent E-mount lenses are winning the day for Sony. Canon's latest mirrorless cameras, the M5 and the M6 are too little, too late, when their competition is offering 4K for less money. To get 4K in a Canon DSLR, you have to spend $4 - 5K on a top-of-the-line EOS 1D -C. Yet another reason why I switched to Sony. The best video bitrate offered by the M5 and M6 is just 35Mb/s in AVCHD. With a free download, I was able to upgrade my Sony a6000's firmware so that it can shoot in 50Mb/s XAVC-S, which is a professional codec. To get the same bitrate in anything from Canon, I would have to buy one of their cameras costing at least $3K (in Canadian dollars).

overheating issues during video?

[@ArthurR]

Sometimes. If i am recording 15-20 minutes straight.

[@astigmatik]

TechnologyMafia i keep hearing about the overheating issue and it worries me.. does it overheat if i shoot videos for like 1 or 5 mins max and stop? like in a wedding

[@ArthurR]

No, if you stop video and record later, there arent issues.

[@withoutpassid]

On Thanksgiving 2016, I was able to record 29 minutes 50 seconds (maximum limit for the camera) without overheating issue. One trick to overcome overheating, in case you encounter, is to change the battery.

There are in deed overheating problems with the Sony A serie. I had to wait a few minutes during an important interview for my Sony to refresh. This can be a major problem if you shoot long sequences. There are of course all sort of workaround like opening the battery door, poping out the flah and detaching the lid... but I mean... come on SONY!!...

[@spirituslibertatis]

Thanks for your amazingly sincere and informative reviews, really made the difference.

[@tugboat8475]

i like your a6000 review! what lens would you recommend just for videos? thanks

[@kirkp_nextguitar]

6 years later and I’m still using my A6000, with my old NEX6 as a second body when I want to have two lenses mounted and ready to go. The A6400 tempts me for its advanced autofocus and lower noise sensor, but for now I’m putting those funds into better lenses.

[@ImGyrusa]

How did you get it so cheap?

[@ArthurR]

Check Best Buy on eBay.

[@WilliamNevius]

Ahaha mafia gang!! Funny I was using the 60d and just switched to a 6300 been watching a lot of your videos to learn about Sony!! Keep them coming dude crazy I was going to buy a bunch of Sony glass but from watching your comparison videos doesn’t seem to be a major jump in quality. Keep creating bro 🤘🏾

[@DarioGalvans]

When transferring photos through wifi, do they loose resolution?

[@LaxmiV138]

You can chose whether original file or only 2mb file

[@lernen.ohne.angst.official2737]

Just made the same switch. My a6000 is in route. Thanks for the video.

[@hart5483]

[@askjrvbjkrfbvhjbdjf]

i have the D5300 and just bought the a6500.... NO REGRETS! superior camera

[@Nik-kv7dc]

Hartanto Agung Wicaksono the a6000 destroys the d3300 in every way, no doubt about it.

[@pulp1405]

the 3300 video capabilities are nothing compared to the a6000

[@ErezRikin]

A week ago, I did the same but with my Nikon D7K. I have now sony a6300. Very happy with this.

[@DJBOBOLIVE]

the canon 70d has wifi too ...

[@davidtengblad.]

Check the price for the 70d...

[@andrebauer777]

Bo Little ... but lacks in many many other point behind the a6000. or even better a6400...

[@shanezhou3259]

Bo Little very hard to use for setting and need change authentic setting for switching mobile device .

[@NIstrumone]

[@ArthurR]

+Nistrumone Nice, congrats! Are you planning on getting any other lenses for it?

[@sadnessinthedeep]

[@FormTrends]

[@pschroeter1]

Had an a6000, then got a Nikon that taught me I really need a mirrorless camerara. Traded it in towards an Sony a61000. What I really like is your camera bag. It's smaller than mine.

[@Alessioiba]

[@ngbowenng]

Alessio De Nardi nope only recent ones

[@Alessioiba]
