The product suited me, I will recommend it to my friends.

I am writing a review specifically about the Sony Alpha A6000 Kit, since in this configuration the price is equal to the cost of the carcass (even if you still have optics from previous nexes, like me, the new 16-50 will be useful, although it is no secret that it is only for unpretentious use, mediocre soap glass).

Fifty dollars 1.8 OSS works faster than on nex'e, but it still takes a long time (for responsible shooting, I advise you to bring it manually), with a pancake, whale zooms, the camera scribbles until the buffer is clogged.

In bad light, learn to shoot on manual settings: today I shot the Mercury Tower in Hong Kong City on a machine gun with a fifty dollars. Dark time of the day, dense fog (upper floors with the naked eye, as in milk) - the glass did not focus for 1.5 minutes.

When opening the built-in flash, I advise you to hold it with your finger - it will last longer.

Camera universal, add. the costs that it will require - a remote (24 megapixels, nevertheless, will help from stirring), a film, a cover, additional. Batteries - +40$ minimum, but it's a "must have" waste.

Conclusions:
if you have grown to the level of this camera, or are ready to learn in a brochure, on forums and YouTube, if you have money for better optics (or already have one) and you can compare + sy and -sy mirrorless cameras, feel free to take it. An excellent choice to wait on this camera for a full frame nex or autofocus refinement in the 4th a7 model.

If you mostly use auto mode, you need crossbows through a 180-degree screen, you are not going to spend money on glass - take the previous 5N, 5R, 5T (the secondary market allows you to take a good set for 13-15 thousand).

Pros

- fast (with a good card - a machine gun compared to other mirrorless ones) - heavier than previous nexes, more comfortable grip - the presence of a viewfinder (for me, its presence was the reason for selling the Sony nex-5T), - the same applies to the built-in flash (I won’t write much about the shoe: with an external puff, the camera ceases to be mobile, but I’ll take the 43rd or 60th model for myself) - three wheel steering - dynamic range - the brightness of the screen suits, it's not enough - you can tweak it (but the battery won't say thank you) - 3 programmable modes. Set the settings and quickly switch between them - great for shooting in difficult lighting conditions: set up once and no longer waste time dancing with tambourines - budget DSLRs will lose in terms of shooting convenience, with whale glasses - and in quality (but if the size is not critical, you are aimed at high-quality images, you don’t need mobility, and there will be money for the further development of the optics fleet, pay extra $ 200-300 and buy Nikon D7100).

Cons

I will try to write about the shortcomings in the simplest language, since experienced users will either find comprehensive information about the camera themselves, or they will be able to bypass the problem areas of settings and hardware. I am writing for those who hold such a camera in their hands for the first time. tactile sensations: - I do not know how long the sticker will last, thin, does not inspire confidence, - the battery cover is very flimsy (it worked better on my previous camera), - it's hard to pull out the memory card (in order not to loosen the socket and not bend the card itself, you have to pull it out, simultaneously grabbing it with your fingers on the sides, pull out the card, holding it hard with a pinch - the above problem with the cover affects), - the battery eats very much: at a temperature of +10 5 minutes of video and 60-70 photos, the battery was discharged to 19% (therefore, I advise you to immediately order 2-4 additional Chinese, the budget is $ 16-40) - when shooting "from the belly" you have to turn off the viewfinder, since at a distance of 5 centimeters the sensor is already triggered and the screen turns off. - no 180-degree screen rotation (you get used to good things quickly, nostalgia for 5T). - flip charging cover with rubber stopper was better for me
