Questions & Answers

RAYMOND D : Does this camera have a US warranty?ERMIT O : Yes, of courseANDREW R : Grey market or "Direct Import" items are clearly marked as such on our website. The item in this listing is US market equipment. NOT grey market. Warranty is for US.
Sis T : can I do selfie with this camera?GINA M : If you're thinking of doing it the way a cellphone camera works, then the answer is "no". You would have to set up the shot then use the self-timer feature.HIMANSHU S : The LCD screen does not flip out full 180 degrees. So, it is difficult to take a selfie with this camera as it involves some hit-and-trial.rob a : Sort of, the rear lcd doesn't flip over so you can't take it in normal fashion however there's a remote camera app for your phone that allows you to see yourself and snap the selfieJOHN I : The screen will not pivot to face the front so it will be hard, but this is the finest camera I have ever usedDERRICK N : No. The screen does not rotate. It only pulls out about a half an inch and tilts up or down.BROOK R : Yes, best selfies ever. Use built-in timer. Or use compatible remote. Selfies are even better with tripod.
Shopper : Does the 16-50mm E-Mount Lens have power zoom?MIKE D : Yes.PHIL H : yes

A smart buy

I am a full-time professional photographer. I have owned this camera for several years and use it for street photography. Unless the newer versions offer features that you specifically need, I recommend saving your money and purchasing this one. This camera performs exceptionally well and is durable enough that I have left it in my car in various weather conditions without any negative effects. The lenses are very affordable. Of the dozens of cameras I have owned over the years, the 6000 is one of the most reliable, consistently producing great images. It has become one of my all-time favorites.

Superb Camera

The A6000 is still a superb camera in 2025. I purchased this camera new early 2015. Ten years later and it is still serving my hobby taking 1st class photos (even if I do say so myself!). Its a pleasure to use. It can be as simple (auto) or creative (manual) as suits your needs. And the good bit is you can pick up the body for around £200-£300 . An absolute bargain. If you're just starting out or looking to venture into your creative side, I would highly recommend this camera.

Excellent Camera

Don't remember when I start buying Sony products. But no matter what was it and what I still buying, is it the tv, smartphone etc, it's always top top best from all brands I have experience with. Same now with this camera Sony a6000. Had before a200 and never had any doubts that I will not stay with Sony new camera update again. Choose this camera to start with for my architecture photography and my needs and for this moment I know that was the choice spot on.

The camera to step up to from phones!!

For the last 20 years I've always chased the best camera phones available ( except Samsung) and in that chase I've always bought the peripherals, lenses , Shiftcam, polar pro lite etc?. I was just about to add the new ultra lenses from Shiftcam to the set up and then reflected, what am I doing??? God, get a real camera?.. so did my research (I haven't got a massive budget) and came across reviews and videos for the A6000. Well, took the plunge, added 2 other lenses, the SEL35F18 (fantastic) and the 50-200mm (not so fantastic but adequate) I'm so glad I took that plunge and ok, it's a 2014 camera that's got its pitfalls (video) I want a camera for stills. So if I really give this a go then maybe I will step up to another model but right now it's perfect camera for my inexperienced needs. And tomorrow night I can hopefully get my first ever decent moon shot that isn't just an algorithm from a super computer!

Bought a6000 well before Covid-19 Good entry level camera. Imaging Edge App to allow transfer of photos/videos to phone/tablet not easy to use. If you need higher quality video then choose a newer model.

Great mirrorless camera

I bought this a few months ago as a kit with two lenses, and then added the Sony 70-350G super telephoto as I wanted to take wildlife photos. I am really impressed with how easy it is to use and how light it feels compared to my old DSLR camera. All of this means that it is not a huge weight to carry around when "out in the wild". I am very impressed with the quality of the photos - the combination of this body and the super telephoto lens meant that even the scales on a lizard at 20 metres showed up clearly. My only tiny gripe is that the sound quality on the video setting is not brilliant, but then I suppose it is OK for a built-in mike.

Perfect all rounder.

I have just bought two A6000's, one for general photography with an 18-200 lens and one as a wedding backup with a 50mm lens, the image quality is outstanding and is very close to the IQ of my A7iii. Recommended camera.

Amazing

I waited a few weeks to become familiar with this amazing little camera. It'll take much longer! There's so much this camera can do. I bought the book by David Busch for this model which is a great help. For my requirement, I will probably buy a more powerful telescopic lens, but there's enough to be getting on with for now.

Best light weight holiday camera

I find this is such a good camera because the camera body and the interchangable lenses are based on aluminium which keeps the weight of the whole system so light and small for carrying around on holidays and days out. I do have a full frame DSLR system which I use for work but the weight is so heavy I would not want to carry a backpack of cameras and lenses for pleasure

Great reasonably priced camera

Only had this camera for around 2 weeks, so cannot comment on how well it will function. Camera is much lighter than I was expecting, but obviously with the separately bought zoom lens, it makes the camera heavier. This is not an issue. The start up guide is sufficient to get started, but well worth downloading Sony's camera manual. Looking forward to taking lots of good photos. Would recommend this camera if you are just looking to use it for casual, social photography.

By Apocryphon

I want to be blunt about a couple of things to start. Firstly, I am a novice photographer. Most of my understanding of photography came from researching the camera I wanted to buy. Secondly, this is my first camera of any competitive caliber. That said, this is the camera I chose after much research. It has very much lived up to and surpassed my expectations in most ways. That said (part II), it is not perfect and the rating given is for its placement in the camera hierarchy. I think, if so...

Very intuitive.

Compact and Lightweight Mirrorless DSLR
The a6000 is a super-compact mirrorless camera that's about half the size and weight of a typical DSLR, yet it has the same size APS-C sensor as most DSLRs. The interchangeable lenses and E-mount system make the a6000 more versatile than almost any other camera on the market.

High Resolution 24MP APS-C Sensor
Get incredible detail and gorgeous enlargements thanks to the newly developed 24.3 megapixel Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor. It has higher resolution than most DSLRs and adopts the same gapless on-chip lens structure as the a7R for ultimate image quality and light sensitivity.

Better Images through BIONZ X Processing
The new BIONZ X image processor faithfully reproduces textures and details in real time via extra high-speed processing capabilities delivering true-to-life images - as seen by the naked eye. It enables greater natural detail, and richer tonal gradations.

Ultra-fast Response
Capture the perfect moment - the a6000 realizes 11 frames per second continuous shooting with AF (Auto Focus) tracking by making the most of the wide-area 179-point phase-detection AF sensor. Even when dealing with a moving subject the a6000's superb moving-subject tracking performance ensures you get the shot during still or video capture.

Easy and Intuitive Controls
Despite its small size, the a6000 gives you full DSLR control and immediate access to the functions you need to shoot like a pro. Two dials on top and a rear-mounted control wheel allow quick selection of shooting modes and camera settings.

Instantly Connect via NFC and Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi connectivity allows you to control your camera with your compatible smartphone or tablet and the PlayMemories Camera Apps. Frame your shot on your device's LCD, snap the shutter, and then transfer the images directly to your mobile device for quick editing and uploading. And with NFC (near field communication) technology, connecting has never been easier. Simply tap the camera to an NFC-enabled device, and you're ready to shoot and share without wires or hassles.

Stunning Low Light Photos
With 20% higher sensitivity than the NEX-7 due to the newly developed Exmor CMOS sensor and BIONZ X processor, you get stunning detail in low light from ISO range 100 25000. And for an additional burst of light, the a6000 features a pop-up flash and a standard hot shoe for additional flash accessories.

Full HD Output
Capture Full 1920 x 1080 HD uncompressed clean-screen video files with external recording devices via an HDMI connection in 60p and 60i frame rates. Selectable in-camera AVCHD codec frame rates include super-smooth 60p, standard 60i or cinematic 24p, while MP4 codec is also available for smaller files for easier upload to the web.

What You See is What You Get
View every scene in rich detail on the high contrast 1.4M dot Tru-Finder OLED EVF. It delivers 100% frame coverage with an approximately 33½ viewing angle for corner-to-corner visibility. Not only that, the viewfinder displays what will appear in your recordings, including the effects of your camera settings so you can fine-tune focus and preview your shots before you take the picture.

PlayMemories Camera Apps
Personalize your camera by adding new features of your choice with PlayMemories Camera Apps. Find apps to fit your shooting style from portraits, detailed close-ups, sports, time lapse, motion shot and much more. Use apps that shoot, share and save photos using Wi-Fi that make it easy to control and view your camera from smartphone, and post photos directly to Facebook or backup images to the cloud without connecting to a computer.

Cover Every Shooting Angle
Snap shots high over crowds or down low to capture a pet's eye view with the tiltable 3.0" (921k dots) Xtra Fine LCD Display that boasts a range of movement of approximately up 90½ and down 45½. Easily scroll through menus and preview life thanks to WhiteMagic technology that dramatically increases visibility in bright daylight. The large display delivers brilliant-quality still images and movies while enabling easy focusing operation.

DSLR-like Focusing Speed
Enhanced Fast Hybrid auto focus combines speedy phase-detection AF with highly accurate contrast-detection AF, which has been accelerated through a new Spatial Object Detection algorithm, to achieve among the fastest autofocusing performance of any full-frame camera. First, phase-detection AF with 179 densely placed phase-detection AF points swiftly and efficiently moves the lens to bring the subject nearly into focus. Then contrast-detection AF with wide AF coverage fine-tunes the focusing in the blink of an eye.
