Review Summary

Considering the price point it is a great product. With all the necessary features of a mirrorless. Sony's autofocus works great even with third party lenses. Plastic build and light. Only complain is the batterylife.

I bought it 3 months ago and have been truly impressed how well this camera performs. It is so easy to operate and there is proper community support behind it so it gets easy learning all the bits of photography. Only drawback is there is no stabilization when recording videos.

I bought this very recently, still learning. I am already very happy with the quality of photos. Have not tried that much of video recording.

I did not like the kit lens. I am a first time camera buyer and I did not know that kit lenses are usually not that good. So I felt a bit cheated.

Not long had my a6100 twin lens kit and only been out twice with it. 1st time at motorsport event - great for the closer shots, only downfall, I was told the bigger lens would capture the shots my phone couldn't. Unfortunately, my phone has a much better zoom and still get the quality I was after. Great for objects nearer.

This is my 1st SLR since my film one (not used for years !). So back to being a newbie . Took some good shots straight away. Still practicing with all the options. I did some research between models. I would very much recommend this model. Yes I could have spent loads more and not necessary got better pictures

Fantastic camera I love everything about it. The only problem I had was getting the app to connect to the camera, but I finally resolved this by changing a setting on my phone. The app could definitely do with being updated as its not very user friendly.

as the title says, Buy The a6400 if you are focused on video more than focused on photography as this camera is lacking a lot of features that are needed for good post production value. I made the mistake of not getting the a6400 which would have suited my needs more, and now im just stuck with this camera as i am not in the position to return and get the a6400. Things such as colour profiles, and the build quality in general to record in different environmental and weather conditions lack on this model. Don't get me wrong, its a great camera, but for my use value, its 1/5. For photography however, easy 5/5.

Camera seems fine but learning to use it is not made easy due to very poor documentation and web site instructions.

Was looking for a small, light camera with apsc sensor that handled well and I could get large prints. The 6100 has proven to be what I was looking for. With dedicated dials for aperture and speed I can quickly select iso or auto iso.I didn't review sound as I only shoot stills.

Getting back into photography again after a long break, I switched from a big DSLR (not Sony) to this model as I wanted to downsize my kit. This is a great camera for an amateur. The picture and video quality is great. For an all-rounder who does a bit of street, landscape, nature and casual family photography, this is great device. I also bought a Sony 50mm lens which has a wider aperture than the kit lens (included with my camera) and I have been very happy with the results. Only note is that this model is not waterproof at all (so in hindsight I should have the A6400), but otherwise a very happy customer!

I been using the Sony a7c but wanted something even smaller, lighter and less expensive. The Sony a6100 is perfect for my needs. The one thing I wish it had was a Minimum shutter speed setting. That way I can tell the camera not to go below a set shutter speed. Other then that This is an amazing camera.

Purchased the Sony A6100 nearly two weeks ago. Great wee camera for street photography I've discovered and a lot of other subjects. It will take me years to outgrow this camera especially with the range of lenses available for it.

Device is perfect, except the battery charging method. We have to keep the whole device for charging battery, that i feel little uncomfortable. It is better to provide a charging adapter.

I bought this camera for my daughter as a graduation present from her art MFA program. She had been researching cameras for months and this is her choice. She will use it to document art and for video projects. Excellent price and arrive very quickly.

I bought this camera for its compact size and the APS-C sensor which is larger than the sensors on bridge cameras. A friend of mine has the A6000 so I knew that the results would be really good. Equipped with the Sony Zeiss 16-70 lens, which gives the 35mm. equivalent range 24-135, you have a camera that will be fine for most occasions. I have wide angle and tele-photo lenses if needed. There are more sophisticated cameras in the Sony A 6 range but you would have to decide if the extra features are worth the cost for you.

Does what I want it to do
By Boblet17
I have in the past had two film SLRs, 2 DSLRs and a number of high-end compacts. I?m not a pro photographer, and I?m not a particularly good photographer, but I do take lots of pictures and avidly process them in photoshop. I know about ISO, f-stops, depth of field and depth of focus. That should give an idea of my knowledge and experience.

- Alpha a6100 Mirrorless Camera -
Sony improves its entry-level camera line with the new a6100 mirrorless digital camera. This lightweight camera features a revised APS-C-format 24.2MP Exmor CMOS sensor with an ISO 100-32000 sensitivity that can be expanded to ISO 51200 when working under low-light conditions. It has an AF speed of 20 milliseconds and 11fps continuous shooting with AF/AE tracking and can record 4K videos in XAAVC S format. It also has 425-phase detection AF points and real-time eye autofocus for stills of numerous subjects.
The a6100 has a 1.44m-dot OLED electronic viewfinder and a rear 3.0" 921.6k-dot touchscreen LCD. It is also Wi-Fi and Bluetooth-enabled, allowing for remote camera control as well as wireless file transfers. Enjoy shooting crisp and clear photos or recording various high-quality footage with the new Sony a6100.
24.2MP and incredible image quality
The Alpha 6100 boasts an impressive APS-C image sensor with approximately 24.2 effective megapixels, the latest BIONZ X image processing engine and the same front end LSI as used on Sony's acclaimed full-frame cameras to deliver outstanding image quality with rich detail and true-to-life color reproduction. Area specific noise reduction results in low noise even at high ISO which ranges from 100 - 32,000 (Expandable up to ISO - 51,200).
