Amazing Camera. Nice quality all around. Very solid. Just moved from canon to this and it is 10000x better.

Easy to use with great features

I have had this camera for 8 years. It has proven itself in a range of situations, from sports photography, with a telephoto lens (100-400mm) as well as portraits and landscapes. We also have a professional videographer in the family who frequently borrows my camera

Sony a6300

I've had this camera a few weeks and I am very impressed with it. Shoots great images and the 4K video is excellent. The camera is easy to use and the customise button feature is very good. I still haven't worked out how to use the picture profiles yet but it seems straight forward.

Lightweight everyday camera

I bought this camera a month ago and absolutely love it, I also bought a zeiss 16-70mm f4 lens to use with it and am over the moon with the combination. Every shot is a keeper, brilliant gear Sony. Just a perfect lightweight everyday camera.

Compact but versatile.

I bought this camera specifically to try astrophotography with my 600mm telescope. Although I?m a beginner at this I?m very impressed with the camera. The fact that it?s mirrorless means that I can turn it to electronic shutter and take numerous photos, (eg 200 or so for stacking), without any wear on the mechanism and without increasing the shutter count. So far I?ve only done photos of the moon and planets but I?m very impressed. My only problems so far have been with the complexity of using it. It seems like hundreds of settings and an awful lot to learn. One thing that I don?t like is Sony?s Imaging Edge program to link my smartphone and laptop to the camera. The smartphone app links okay but is very limited in what it will do. I?ve now bought a third party app to give me full intervalometer functions. The Windows app for the laptop won?t connect to the camera at all so I?ve given up on it.

Fantastic all round camera with the correct Lens

I have owned this camera for a few months now and really enjoy using it and have got some nice photos. Worth buying Sony lenses to go with it.

Great first camera

Had this camera now for a couple of years and with out doubt it's been a brilliant first camera. A step up from the A6000 but still at a perfect entry point. Compact, sharp and solid autofocus are just a few benefits of this camera. If you were to get into photography a little more though, you may be left wanting more or a larger sensor, that's where I'm currently at now. But overall it has served me well and I can't complain about the performance or price.

Very advanced menus in a small package!

I have been using Sony products for as long as I can remember. Every product I used, cameras, TVs, surround sound systems, computers like this one, cell phones, etc, the look, the feel, the ease of use up until the smart technology took over, the sound, views, sharpness of the pictures, were second to none! Sony has always been the numero uno cutting edge electronics leader. Even though the stock market will not admit the greatness of the Sony products the proof is in the pudding! A few years ago I came across 2 other brands which I could purchase for a steal. I acquired these 2 products, one a compact camera and the other was a SMART TV. After using Only Sony products for so long these other ones seemed like apples to thistles. The quality of all the mid to higher end Sony products have been amazing to say the least. When blu ray first came out I was, well, what can I say? Blu ray was so far ahead of anything up until 4k arrived on the scene, and I will argue that blu ray is still better then 4k. Take the VAIO. There are two computer brands that show up in movies. Some of the biggest movie titles that showed computers VAIO was there. I'm using one now. I just wish I had my old one with the backlit keyboard. The battle for the best sound in headphones has always been fierce. I was a koss guy with the pro4/AA which were to me the best sound ever in headphones. That is until the virtual surround sound was introduced, then Sony just recently blew away the competition with the 360 virtual mixing environment cordless WF headphones that will take some kind of magic to beat. No matter what kind of reviews Sony has to put up with when a new product hits the market like OLED 4k , oops scratch that 8K. What companies are even trying to compete with that? If they did they would sink, unless they are very quick with reverse engineering in such a way as to not show any Sony tech. . .Well scratch that too! It ain't gonna happen. So let the jealous ones who give everything a bad rap stick to their mediocre sub-tech gizmos while Sony screams by the competition. My camera! My first SLR camera was purchased over seas while I was in the navy. It was a top of the line other brand, and it took great pictures, that is as long as they were in focus. It had no autofocus, but it did have a feature I miss that allows the shutter to be cocked without advancing the film for multiple exposures on one frame. Jump ahead 40 years and welcome to the megapixel. I didn't really understand that term until I saw the Hubble telescope aimed at earth with 4 gigapixel resolution. The image that was created by that lens was shone on a very large table as a tiny dot. This dot got larger and larger as the projector zoomed in, and zoomed in, and zoomed in 500 more times until one pebble in the asphalt on a NY city street was in the whole frame it was as clear as if you stood looking at it in real time. This is what a megapixel does. If you want to see some amazing video, and a real and distinct view of how a higher MP creates stunning, amazingly stunning video look on youtube at the Hasselblad 400 megapixel videos. Even with a mediocre TV or computer monitor the views are breathtaking. Bring on the Alpha 1 with 50mp full frame camera with so many new advancements, I'm thinkin the rest are in awe! Even though the MP rating is higher the rest of the features in the Alpha 1 far overshadow the rest, plus most of the other high MP rated cameras do not have full frame technology. In my MHO the spec sheet does not lie, and it is always the bottom line in the race to produce the best. Sony's specs have always amazed!

Amazing camera for photos and video

I've been using this camera for over a year. From experience I found that the photography capabilities of this camera is outstanding and video capabilities of S log allows more people to get into a cinema video production in an indie production or professional. The only issue I have with this camera is the battery and and the lack of USB type C. I was considering getting A7C but the photography capabilities of that camera does not match this.

Problems With ISO

I’ve had this camera for a year, after using an a6000 for 3 years. I love the battery grip and the battery life compared to the a6000. I want to say I love this camera, but I’ve had a problem with the ISO. The ISO works as expected when in manual mode, except when I use an external flash. When reviewing my photos, the ISO with flash was actually 6000, and it was set at 100. When using auto, shutter priority, or aperture priority, the ISO typically jumps to 6,500-32,000 in well lit environments. I’ve called Sony many times.I put the ISO limit on, and the camera bypasses it. Sony finally agreed to repair it. I sent it out for a month, and the ISO continues to be an issue. I asked to have the camera replaced, but they won’t replace it. They want me to send it back to Precision Camera. Precision camera cleaned and reset to factory settings, which I had already done. They also sent me a condescending note the this camera requires an external flash and more than a kit lens. I have many expensive Sony lenses and a few external flashes. I assume this is an electronic problem, I’m not sure what I’ll do next. The image quality from this camera is good when the ISO isn’t too high, but I’ve had many photos ruined because of it. Proceed with caution if you buy it

The a6300 is my first E-mount APS-C.

Great camera, well balanced. Easy to use. Setting it up was a real challenge but I think I have it fine now. If only it had image stabilisation.

small enough for a small bag

I bought this camera as an alternative to the ubiquitous iphone camera. I wanted something not much bigger, with the same ease of use but with changeable settings and lenses. My search led to the Sony. It is better, but not as easy to use as an iphone. It will partitally connect to my iphone, but its a hassle. the menus are difficult to navigate, and not intuitive, and it should be. Needs a redesign by a product designer not a electrician

camera designed to be difficult to use

I found 4K video unusable, HD video fine for my needs Image quality very good SD card file organisation very frustrating. Menu system nightmarish, unintuitive and clunkier than competing menu design. No intelligible logic to menu assignments. No manual LCD monitor/EVF viewfinder toggle button. With eye sensor set to automatic camera cannot be used with monitor extended Not allowed to assign custom button to manually toggle viewfinders Exposure modes seem very glued to 100 ISO Every now and then camera refuses to focus, resolved by pointing camera on something close and forcing focus Button override or custom button to toggle between viewfinders missing Missing viewfinder toggle button makes for very clunky use

Confusing User interface

The camera works well, short battery life. In hindsight I should had spent the extra for a model that has in-body image stabilization - I would have more options with after market lenses.

Superb hybrid AF, burst mode and image quality

I bought this camera as an upgrade from my NEX 6, which is now my back-up APSC camera, and because it came with the excellent 18-125mm lens. Highly recommended.
