Sony ILCE-6000L/B Alpha a6000 Mirrorless Digital Camera w/ 16-50mm lens - Black - Refurbished

Bought this A6000 while I still have other cameras mostly MFT This however is a sweet game changer love the dynamics and quality of the photos, a must .

This camera has a lot of features! Too many for me to begin with. Having changed from another leading brand, I had difficulty changing platforms. I didn't use it for more than a year until I found out about Sony in store Sessions. I really liked the in store one on one session that I had with Sony Advocate Jo at the Castle Hill Sony Store. She really helped me figure out some problems that I had with the camera. I was not at all comfortable with driving it. I highly recommend the sessions that she has been giving and hope there will be more in the future.

I am truly satisfied by the weight, quality, and the pictures that I have taken. This was my dream camera. I bought it on New Years Eve 2018 and since then, I have taken over 8000 photos. It was worth it.

The a-6000 is probably a great camera. However, it is NOT a good model for moving up from basic digital cameras and photo editing software. A user-friendly "Quick Start" guide for both still pictures and videos would have allowed early success and been MOST appreciated. Even including the Y following the model number on the camera body or instruction manual-- to ease product registration-- would have spared some frustration. (It's on the box, if you're still looking.) Figuring out how to take and view pictures is easier and much more intuitive than videos. To be clear, taking videos is easy. Viewing and/or editing is another story, and the PMM software ridiculously complex. Understandably, there's a learning curve with new technology. However, manuals and videos tend to render most accessible even to novices. This one does not. Truly, this camera is designed for an intermediate photographer--regardless of alternate reviews. Effectively using the basic technologies of this camera has been a very frustrating process for this newbie--who has a doctorate and uses a wide variety of tech regularly. Although I have viewed more than 3 hours of tutorial videos and read the manual, I may need to return it since I still can't simply rotate the short video I took, and reviewing youtube learning videos to find the right one has become too time-consuming. I may even go back a digital recorder and my Nikon film camera, multiple lenses, and photo-editing software since I find point & shoot digitals and camera phones too limiting. #Marketinggap

This camera has replaced my big, bulky DSLRs. The reason we went to DSLR cameras was the photo quality from lens, to sensor, to printed or displated photographs. The Sony A6000 camera gives us the lens-to-photograph quality of the best DSLRs.
