Ever imagined owning a mirrorless camera? You’ll finally have that dream come true with the new Sony’s A6000. The good news is that it can be yours this April at only $800 with lens. Now this is what a great deal is all about!
The A6000 is here to replace one of 2012’s most exceptional shooters, and despite the NEX-6’s success, this fresh 2014 model is definitely one that you should own. Sony calls it the “world’s fastest autofocus.” With its brand-new 24.3-megapixel CMOS APS-C sensor paired with a BIONZ X processor at the core, you’ll certainly find it superb.
Its 179 phase-detect and 25 contrast-detect AF points allows you to enjoy lag of just 0.06 second. Aside from that, you will also have 11 fps continuous shooting with tracking AF. You will get surprised at the price drop. The A6000 will ship for $800 with a 16-50mm power-zoom kit lens, a price more favorable when compared with the NEX-6 back in 2012.
Like other recent Alpha CSCs, the A6000 has an OLED viewfinder with 100 percent frame coverage and a tilting 3-inch 921k-dot LCD. This mirror less camera also has WiFi and NFC, so you can shoot via the Android or iOS app, or transfer images from the camera to a smartphone or tablet. Want more? With the A6000, you can get the privilege of having several apps on the camera itself. You can have free Direct Upload that you can use for posting your pictures online. You may also have the Time-lapse and Lens Compensation, these are the ones that you have to purchase which you can use for minimizing lens distortion.
If we’re going to liken it with the NEX-6, A6000 is larger but not significantly so. Their designs are somehow similar but it is evident that the newer model has a slightly more premium look and feel than its predecessor. The button layout is also quite similar and if you’re familiar with previous NEX cameras, you’ll surely enjoy this one more.
With the versatile Sony’s A6000, you can capture life’s most significant moments in high resolution and enhance your creativity too. Its easy and intuitive controls help you shoot like a pro. This is certainly the kind of camera that you’ll want to own.
