I own a Sony 6000 since 2014 love the form factor and how versatile it is . My wife has a Sony 6400 since Christmas 2019 she’s relatively new to photography but is enjoying the learning process would recommend Sony Cameras.
Amazing review. I have watched hours and hours of video on this camera while researching and considering purchase. Yours was the ONLY one regarding image quality and real time usage regarding photography. Bravo. Beautiful presentation. Incredibly informative. Found this video by accident. Should have been the first one I saw. I bought it as my “B” camera. I value your opinion. Your presentation is incredible. Looking forward to more videos. Subscribed immediately. Count me as a fan. Thank you.
Your reviews and photography are always a delight to watch. If you can suggest two of the reasonable priced lenses from Sony or third party manufacturers to go along with a6100, that will be more helpful. Thank you once again for this bideo.
It's fun to take the more entry level cameras out for a spin sometimes. I pulled my D3400 out of the closet this weekend and had a bit of fun with it. It was kind of nice to just shoot with no frills and a more simplistic approach and honestly I was more impressed with how well the camera worked after I'd been shooting with my 7000 series for so long. I kind of wish I had waited and got the 6100, but I picked up an A6000 last year for a secondary camera and I absolutely love it. Both the 16-50 and 55-210 kit lenses are impressive and I get really sharp images even out at 200mm with the kit, where as both of my NIkkor zooms that go to 300mm struggle to get any kind of clarity at 300mm. Oddly enough it's become my bird camera now, paired with an old 400mm Tokina prime f-mount and the Nikon to Sony lens adapter. My biggest issue now is that I love my SONY so much that instead of upgrading to a D500 I'm half considering spending that money on their 70-350 lens.
I love my a6100 it was a nice upgrade to my a6000 (use as my backup now) that I had bought a few months before. I don't do video so its fine for me. I have 2 of the three sigma f1.4 primes (16mm, 30mm), defiantly recommend them just need to save up for the 56mm to complete the trinity. down the road id love to get the a7Riv, its just way to spendy for me right now.
Thank you for your excellent review. I am a camera novice and appreciate your great advice. I got the a6600 and actually preached the sermon this week with it but my mic didn't work and had to redo it again with my smartphone camera, but the problem was with the mic and not the camera. Thanks again, look forward to your wonderful videos. Your a breath of fresh air.
Oh, this has been JUST what I needed! So, I was already pretty much thinking I’d end-up with a Sony anyway - but now, here’s what I’m left thinking: - I was wrong in assuming the model numbers were sequential; it was valuable for me to know that 6100 and 6600 are concurrent. - I figure if I go with “any number that’s sixty-one or higher, will be just-FINE”. I can balance the budget along with GLASS. Hey: what might be some real dream lens, normal-ish, that’d be be dreamy on this body? One of the Zeiss? G-Master, I suppose, eh? How’bout one of those teeny-little pancakes? I can’t imagine they’re downright bad, optically - and the portability’s wonderful.
If you want a way to move the mic or flash without having to use a rig, check out Smallrig. They make an adapter that lets you move either out of the way without adding very much bulk.
@@LeighAndRaymond they have given shooters a lot of options, especially those of us using more and more of the video features on those cameras. Good stuff
Thank you for that great review. I'm between the sony a6100 and the canon m50, both with kit lenses. The sony is out of my price range, but i can wait to raise more money if it's worth it. I primarily need it for comedy videos and i also have lighting and sound equipment.
Yes I own the A6100 and the Rx-100 Mkvii. It's still a toss up for me. I do like the bigger sensor on the 6100, and I've noticed better picture quality with it than my mk vii, especially in low light settings. Still don't get me wrong, I love the mk vii for vlogging, due to the size of it.
Ive owned the Sony A5100 with 16-50mm kit lens for about 4 years. Over the holidays I researched the A6000, A6100, A6300, A6400, A6500 and A6600 range along with the Sony APSC E mount lenses. I've ended up purchasing three items used on Ebay - A6000 body, 18-105mm Zoom and the 35mm Macro lens. I really like the controls on the A6000, the viewfinder and the grip that is larger than that on the A5100.
I sold all three of these items to a camera dealer and purchased a new A6100 that is arriving tomorrow. I considered the A6400 but it has quite a few capabilities that I just do not need. I still have my A5100 as it is such a great camera that takes the same lenses and it's a bit more compact than the A6100.
They also do a relocation kit for the camera that allows you to offset the hot shoe to above the 2 top dials you'd be better getting the 6500 or 6600 of you want a wether resistant body tho it is a grate camera
I loved your review, so honest and indepth. I appreciate the fact you showed the animal photos you shot, I'm a retired woman who enjoys taking wildlife photos while I'm out fly fishing! I was originally seriously considering the A6000 but the fact it's 6 years old is a bit of a turn off for me. Which is what led me to this video. I would be taking mainly stills as I also use a couple of gopros for my fishing so the lack of in body stabilization isn't really a concern. However this camera seems to take me to a happier place with it's features and age as to compared to the A6000. All that at still an acceptable price point. Thanks for helping in that process! :)
I started with an a6000 in 2015 and upgraded to a6500 in 2018. Since I have more APS-C lenses than I realy need (8) I will not upgrade to full frame. a6600 was not so interesting since I don't need the better autofocus. But when Sony release an APS-C camera that realy compete with X-T4 I will buy it.
@@LeighAndRaymond The EVF and LCD screen are much better. The body Is bigger. My favourite Sony APS-C lens is the 16-55 and that lens would function even better with a slightly bigger body. Since my left eye is much better than my right I don't like to have the EVF where it is on Sony APS-C. One thing I don't like with most Fuji cameras is the bad grip.
I use Nikon FF cameras/lenses but have an A6500 and a couple of lenses. I like that it is small, lightweight, unobtrusive, has in body stabilization and is a great performer. The 16-55 2,8 is awesome. The only problem is that battery power sucks. Better have a spare with you. Great video!
My daughter has expressed interest in getting into photography. If she's serious, this is the camera I was giving strong consideration to. Thanks for the confirmation.
Excellent review, highly informative and helpful. Will the absence of IBIS be a hindrance in video photography in spite of using a lense with IBIS and a gimbal...?
For video I would say that a gimbal makes stabilisation in camera and in the lens virtually obsolete. A reasonable gimbal is much better at damping movement.
Your reviews are very good and you keep average consumers and hobbyist in mind in review...thats really an relief for me..thanks for that. Nobody seems to review sony kit lense..but u did it well. By the way i had one question ..Is evf of a6100 is good enough as it has lower resolution..will i be able to observe subject sharpness..or is this evf exist just for namesake? ( I have never used sony cameras)
Since you own and use both nikon and sony i need some advice please. I have a nikon d3100 with a 50mm f1.8 that i want to upgrade. I mainly do photography but recently i have been interested in video. I really want a full frame and i am torn between getting the d750, the sony A7ii, and the sony a6400 for my budget. So should o go full frame with old technology and video capabilities or crop with the latest technology?
A6600 doesn't have a built in pop-up flash and also does not have the panorama feature. Bummer 🙁 Anyways I have an A6400 with a gimbal and the Sigma trio and love them all. Decided to pick up the A6100 as my B-Cam so I can still utilize all my current gear. Thank you for this awesome review!
I have a sony A230 and have been asked to take photos at a friends wedding. I've been reseaching cameras and keep coming back to this a6100 but I've never used mirrorless. I absolutely love my a230 and I'm not good with change would the a 6100 be a good choice upgrade or would you suggest something else.
How would you compare the a6100 (with the 16-50 OSS and 35 1.8 OSS lens) to the Z50 (with the 16-50 VR) in terms of stabilization and video over all? Thanks
My a6600 is more exciting. Larger battery and grip plus a cleaner and sturdier top late without a flash. It has also an IBIS as a bonus. A giant leap from my a6300.
Hi mam I want to buy Sony camera but I am very confusing that which is the best cemara Sony zv e10 or a6100 For Instagram reels and shorts video Please tell me mam🙏🏼
When you want to compare bodies, you must also consider comparing lenses. Sony has way more lenses for the APS-C cameras than the Nikon Z50. Another advantage for the Sony is that you can buy Full Frame (EF) lenses and use them on both APS-C and FF Sony bodies (if you ever want to upgrade to a FF Sony camera). There are also excellent choices from Sigma, Tamron, Samyang and Rokinon lenses for the Sony E-Mount. You can also adapt manual vintage lenses that cost $30-$50 used and have awesome image quality, while some produce incredible bokeh. Lenses are more important for image quality. That's my opinion.
The images captured using the kit lens of my a6100 is always less than 1MB whereas the images captured using canon eos 200 d is 8 mb. Why is it like that..?
I want to take class photos and individual school photos fit my niece and her class. I just have the standard lens. Any lens recommendations ? Or can the standard do the job ? Any feedback would be lovely thanks !
I have had the 6100 for nearly a year now and bought the G F4/18-105mm Sony lens. Rarely take it off it's really magic and brilliant for portraits as well as landscapes
So you don't buy a UV filter for every new lens you buy to protect it? That is what I always do as a damaged UV filter is a lot cheaper to replace than any lens. I have another new Nikon camera on the way and I already have a new UV filter for it. Sorry if I should have started with 'Miss.' and put my hand up. ;-)
I used to put UV filters on my lenses but I have found that using a hood provides enough protection for me. If I don't have a hood, then I'm just careful.
@@LeighAndRaymond Thanks for the reply as I imagine you are very busy by the standard of your work - love some of your 'shots'. I've been into photography since I was bought a Kodak Brownie 127 when I was 8yrs old. From the state of that Nikon lens, I have to disagree with the words ' I'm just careful' 😂😂😂. I am really enjoying your RUclips videos. In 35mm film I had a Contax 159MM (I still have it) because I read the Carl Zeiss 50mm f1.7 Planar T* Lens was the best lens ever tested. so I couldn't blame my tools ;-) But I bought two Yashicas to go with it as three Contax 159MM would have been too expensive. Thanks again for the reply
Its good camera ofcours..but i still want more from sony..such as better IBIS & better colors+ contrast & dainamic range & better touch screen...but generally it deserve 600$
@@LeighAndRaymond honestly i want more from Sony... currently i can find most what i want with Nikon Z6 & Panasonic S serious..but still No articulate screen with Nikon Z & and big size with S serious as well as bad Autofocus make me worry.. should i wait more??
Thanks! I loved the X-T30. I think you can get great results with either but the differences would be in terms of usability, which is largely personal preference. Want the magical Sony autofocus detection/tracking - go Sony. Want the legendary Fuji film simulations - go Fuji. I'd recommend getting each into your hands in a shop prior to making a purchase so you can see which you enjoy using more. :)
Fuji XT30 has way superior video at 4k30 no crop with F-Log 200mbps and also Eterna profile(ALSO HAS 10bit out with HDMI). The A6100 was no picture profiles unlike the A6400. The XT30 comes with the amazing 18-55 f2.8-4 lens which is a really high quality lens!
Great shots, completely destroyed by too much bokeh. This amount of background blurriness is completely unnatural. Human vision does not work this way. There is no benefit in blurring the background to oblivion. In most situations you can get pleasant and natural bokeh by trying to reduce it as much as possible! That is also why I prefer these smaller APS-C sensors.
Good question. It isn't highly sealed but all cameras can take a bit of weather and be okay. I wouldn't have hesitated to take this out in the snow or a bit of rain. I'd have just made sure to protect it in between shots.
1st comment, #stayhome #staysafe, Sony always doing same, if you have 6000 no need change for a few new things, every 6 months new cameras, its bullshit. sony have to change mind.
Question from a newbie: I want to create bird videos in my backyard similar to this RUclips video: ( ruclips.net/video/xbs7FT7dXYc/видео.html ). I was going to buy a Sony A7Siii and a Sony 200-6000 lens but then I started reading about the Sony 6000 series which is much cheaper which I like. I started to think maybe I don't need such a fancy camera since I am going to take bird videos with a stationary camera on a tripod. I like the fact that the 6100 is less than $900 and the 6600 is currently on sale at $1,198.00 but I am concerned I will loose the ability to shoot at dawn and dusk with the 6100 or 6600 and I will high quality slow motion. Which camera and lens combo would you suggest for creating bird videos like the one I linked ? Will overheating be an issue with the 6100 and 6600 cameras during long shooting sessions compared to the A7Siii ? Thank you very much.
You are literally the only person I ever hear constantly refer to Sony cameras as Alpha whatever, everyone else just says A whatever, that's so weird. LOL

@@LeighAndRaymond honestly i want more from Sony... currently i can find most what i want with Nikon Z6 & Panasonic S serious..but still No articulate screen with Nikon Z & and big size with S serious as well as bad Autofocus make me worry.. should i wait more??
Love your videos. How would the Fuji xt30 compare to this camera?
Thanks! I loved the X-T30. I think you can get great results with either but the differences would be in terms of usability, which is largely personal preference. Want the magical Sony autofocus detection/tracking - go Sony. Want the legendary Fuji film simulations - go Fuji. I'd recommend getting each into your hands in a shop prior to making a purchase so you can see which you enjoy using more. :)
Fuji XT30 has way superior video at 4k30 no crop with F-Log 200mbps and also Eterna profile(ALSO HAS 10bit out with HDMI). The A6100 was no picture profiles unlike the A6400. The XT30 comes with the amazing 18-55 f2.8-4 lens which is a really high quality lens!
Great shots, completely destroyed by too much bokeh. This amount of background blurriness is completely unnatural. Human vision does not work this way. There is no benefit in blurring the background to oblivion. In most situations you can get pleasant and natural bokeh by trying to reduce it as much as possible! That is also why I prefer these smaller APS-C sensors.
Nice AZ shirt. Cheers.
Awesome!
Weather proof sealed or resistant?
¡No way!
Good question. It isn't highly sealed but all cameras can take a bit of weather and be okay. I wouldn't have hesitated to take this out in the snow or a bit of rain. I'd have just made sure to protect it in between shots.
that is a huge rabbit 0_0
where is this place located?
Those were jackrabbits in Arizona. :)
No IBIS? Use gimbal….?
You could certainly use a gimbal - there are some great ones out there.
I was going to ask the same question , thank you so much
1st comment, #stayhome #staysafe, Sony always doing same, if you have 6000 no need change for a few new things, every 6 months new cameras, its bullshit. sony have to change mind.
Question from a newbie: I want to create bird videos in my backyard similar to this RUclips video: ( ruclips.net/video/xbs7FT7dXYc/видео.html ). I was going to buy a Sony A7Siii and a Sony 200-6000 lens but then I started reading about the Sony 6000 series which is much cheaper which I like. I started to think maybe I don't need such a fancy camera since I am going to take bird videos with a stationary camera on a tripod. I like the fact that the 6100 is less than $900 and the 6600 is currently on sale at $1,198.00 but I am concerned I will loose the ability to shoot at dawn and dusk with the 6100 or 6600 and I will high quality slow motion. Which camera and lens combo would you suggest for creating bird videos like the one I linked ? Will overheating be an issue with the 6100 and 6600 cameras during long shooting sessions compared to the A7Siii ? Thank you very much.
😊
No😐
👌👌👌
You are literally the only person I ever hear constantly refer to Sony cameras as Alpha whatever, everyone else just says A whatever, that's so weird. LOL
i do theyre alphas ? since minolta didsapeared
Yes, somewhere along the way, a lot of folks started to say A instead of Alpha. I'm not sure why. I think they're both acceptable at this point.
No it’s a Sony
What do you dislike about Sony?
TheSnapChick shape, complicated menus, feels cheap for the price, no flippy screen.
Martin Hommel the a6100 has a flip screen...
