Product Reviews

I bought this camera for its compact size and the APS-C sensor which is larger than the sensors on bridge cameras. A friend of mine has the A6000 so I knew that the results would be really good. Equipped with the Sony Zeiss 16-70 lens, which gives the 35mm. equivalent range 24-135, you have a camera that will be fine for most occasions. I have wide angle and tele-photo lenses if needed. There are more sophisticated cameras in the Sony A 6 range but you would have to decide if the extra features are worth the cost for you.

Great product for the amateur and more advanced photographer alike!!

I bought this camera about2 weeks ago. I am really happy with. Still needs time to get know all the features it knows. Only i would change is the grip. It is just too close to the lens and scratching my finger on longer use (after halfen hour already hurts).

It's a great camera for the cost. The picture quality is great and it's easy to use.

bought it in june 2021 the camera is very good and photos are excellent not used all the settings yet one thing no time lapse

Its my first camera. Looks amazing and will help me build a passive income online business. Cannot expect lower from Sony. Great purchase!

I bought the A6100 in January and after a long consideration which camera to buy, I'm honestly very happy with my choice! Features are amazing, autofocus performance is top-notch and image quality is just amazing! While you might need some getting used to with the menu, this might be a small tradeoff for a great camera. Best value for money in APS-C mirrorless world!

I bought this to replace my aging a6000 primarily because I wanted to have the silent shutter feature which is lacking on the a6000. Performance wise, I don't see much of a difference for photography. For video, I can happily say, you will be able to record more than 10 minutes before the camera shuts down as is the case with the a6000. Sony added touch focus to the a6100 which can be helpful sometimes but they still failed to provide full menu touch functionality which would have made this camera 10 times easier to use. But that is Sony for you, still refusing to make their cameras user friendly in 2021!

I bought this camera a few months ago as I needed to upgrade from the a58 I owned I was not disappointed as the images this camera.produces are of a fantastic quality

im so happy, feature and performnce is good. Very usefull for videograph

Even as one of the lower models in the range this camera has great picture quality, easy to use and get to grips with its doesn't take long till your take some stunning picture

The a6100 is an excellent mirrorless aps-c camera both for beginners and intermediate users. It has enough features and functionalities that you can grow with as you begin/continue your photography/videography journey. I mainly use this camera for video because of the excellent auto-focus and sometimes use it to take pictures. I bought it with the kit lens which provides me a versatile medium zoom lens. I love that this is an interchangeable lens camera which means I can buy e-mount lenses to get more out of the camera.

Been interested in cameras since my college days - Remember those big SLRs and DLSR cameras - well this camera is my first venture into modern mirrorless camera and OLED viewfinders. I have to say for a beginner camera based on the wildly successful alpha 6000 it lives up to the hype. Works quite well with various E-mount lens as well. I picked a few starter Sony lens one being a FE (full frame) lens. The Sony Alpha 6100 is a APS-C which is different than say the Sony Alpha 7S Full Frame camera. The full frame lens works reasonably well on the 6100. Best lens to get started with this product I my opinion in the E 20mm F2.8 pancake lens. Combined this really slim lens and the small frame size of the 6100, lends itself to a great point and shoot experience: best for exploring without the drawbacks of heavy and bulky DLSR cameras. Final note, if you can take the lower resolution of the viewfinder compared to Sony more expensive cameras and its modest LCD basic touch screen display then this is a camera you’ll grow to love. I have used it two months so far and will continue to work with it for a long time.

I bought it yesterday so far I love the camera, the focus, great videos. Really smart camera.

I was deciding between the canon m50 and sony 6100, I took sony because of better video (there is a huge crop on canon 4K). I am happy with the camera, the focus, video and image quality are excellent but the connectivity with mobile app doesnt work most of the times ...

Why there is not Neutral Profile option in Creative Style for this model which is higher in price and higher in specs from A6000 which has Neutral Profile? I bought it in a mindset that it can give me more dynamic range to work on my videos/photos but looks like less expensive model has more option. Very disappointed. Can someone from Sony explain this?

satisfy with the real-time tracking and fast focus

This camera is really awesome. I’ve previously used DSLR and recently decided to try out a mirrorless camera. It’s so light and easy to use.

I have in the past had two film SLRs, 2 DSLRs and a number of high-end compacts. I’m not a pro photographer, and I’m not a particularly good photographer, but I do take lots of pictures and avidly process them in photoshop. I know about ISO, f-stops, depth of field and depth of focus. That should give an idea of my knowledge and experience. Before I bought an a6100 I read quite a few reviews: dpreview, techradar, digitalcameraworld and so on. I checked out all the models in my price bracket (up to £1,000 with kit lens), and the a6100 was the one that ticked all my boxes. The negative reviews seemed to focus on dated looks, limited touchscreen functions and confusing menus. To this my reaction was ‘I’m not buying costume jewellery, it’s a camera, and anyway I like the looks’, ‘over-sensitive touchscreens are awful to use, and extremely complicated’ and ‘I’ll sort the menus out given a bit of time’. There were two overwhelming (for me) positive features of all the reviews though: fast, flexible and accurate autofocus, plus outstanding picture quality. It’s a camera: if it takes great photos that’s its job and the clincher for me. So what’s it like in practice? Well, its great. It can be used as a simple point and press; my partner for instance uses it in this way, she has a good eye for colour, framing and light but can’t be doing with all the f stop malarkey. On the other hand, with a few minutes work setting up the controls, it is as flexible and configurable as a DSLR, in my experience. Picture quality is outstanding, the autofocus is utterly brilliant, the camera is light but feels solid in use. Dynamic range is exceptional, eye focus really works. I’m very happy with it.

This was my first camera beyond the previous point and shoot cameras that I have owned over the years. Great for a beginner!

I bought this Camera before Christmas last year, (my card doesn't work to any store to buy a gimbal that time), i decided to visit to Sony Concept Store (MegaMall) The features of this camera are insane, though it doesn't have IBIS but I still love it, only practice, practice, and more practice.

I am so happy with a6100. It has superb auto focus and incredible tracking. It also has a lot of features that not just gimmcky, but really really useful.

I was happy because my friends are surprised with the great photos taken by me

I upgraded my camera to this one after a few months of reflection and do not regret it !

I bought a month ago.. best for video and good in low light recommended
