Pros: To date I would say excellent value for money, dynamic range of the sensor, absolute practicality.

Cons: The autofocus suffers a bit with low lights and, but this I would blame more on Sony in general, I think that with a different software it can be exploited even better.

Opinion: I have had this camera for 6 years, my trusted travel companion at all times with its small and plasticky 16-50. At first the feeling was difficult, I was tempted to sell it several times, but then I realized that after all it was me who did not exploit it properly and after a while of learning I never left it. Are there better machines? Yes. Does it have any limits? Yes. But in the end everything must be related to what you are looking for, I have spent years looking for equipment, advice etc but in the end what matters is how you find yourself with the equipment you use and the feeling you give. This machine is compact, light but at the same time resistant, I never leave it at home, and in the end I believe that this counts. I have always liked the sensor, the dynamic range is good, the resistance at high iso is not bad, personally I never shoot above 3200ISO so for me it is more than fine. I don't do sports and wildlife photography so the AF suits my needs, as well as the burst. I really like the files, I find the raw it generates easy to process and with a good margin. To date I have seen it used even around € 300, to start or simply to have something that is not a phone or a compact I think it is perfect. Like everything you have to know the limits and learn to exploit them, then Sony lenses are excellent (expensive, but now which ones are not? And anyway there is starting to be some good used around compared to when I bought it) So I would say that I can only recommend it

Pros: Value for money, compatible with all Sony lenses

Cons: Suffers at high iso, little " three-dimensionality "

Opinion: Bought as an entry level and it proved to be an excellent entry level camera in fact, unfortunately after a while that you photograph the limits are felt. The sensor gives little three-dimensionality to photos, at high ISO it suffers but at that price there is no better. Also recommended in 2025 for those who want to learn, great pro compatibility with practically all Sony lenses

Pros: Great value for money

Cons: Viewfinder does not satisfy me

Opinion: I bought this A 6000 for my daughter, I got to try it during a holiday as I wanted to have something light and I must say that it is an excellent machine, I tested it with its kit lens and it has a good yield, in fact I am opting for the purchase for a more performing lens so I imagine that the files it churns out will be great. The only sore point is when I have to extract the SD that always falls because it is so close to the bulkhead where it is inserted and it becomes difficult to remove it. All in all it is pleasant and I am satisfied.

Pros: General quality of files (just look at the gallery below), great value for money, autofocus.

Cons: Battery life, feeling of fragility in use, viewfinder

Opinion: Taken new at just over 400 euros in kit with the 16-50, I replaced the lens (not even so bad as you read around) with a more comfortable 18-135 and it became my favorite travel car, at least until I replaced it with a 6400. Its strength is in the quality of the file (up to 800-1600 iso), in portability and operating speed, including autofocus.

Pros: Price, image quality, autofocus, weight

Cons: Display not fully adjustable (no Vlog), battery, high ISO, Poorly defined histogram

Opinion: I took this machine in 2022, exclusively for the street and also to try the mirrorless system, given the cost of 500 euros absolutely contained. Immediately abandoned the improbable kit 16-50 (I wonder why they provide it supplied ...), I mounted the 50 mm f / 1.8 sony (which I still find inferior to the canon counterpart) and, once I understood the menu quite complicated, I realized that for the street the mirrorless has no comparison. Of course, the display is not completely adjustable so, in conditions of strong brightness, it is a bit complicated to use it, but beyond this it is an extraordinary camera, with an autofocus that left me speechless. Very important, if taken in RAW, is to disable DRO / Auto HDR, otherwise the photos will be underexposed, unlike what you see on the preview of the screen. I do not know other mirrorless to make comparisons, but surely the battery has a limited duration (I recommend two more spare), the noise at 800 ISO is well present and on the Histogram there would be a lot to say (it is really skimpy), although probably those who have a mirrorless tend to look at it little, relying on what they see on the display. The weight is really feather, which makes it a wonderful travel companion especially in a crowded city.
