Sony Alpha A6000 ILCE-6000 Silver Digital Camera (Kit Box)

The Sony Alpha A6000 ILCE-6000 Silver Digital Camera (Kit Box) features a 24.3MP APS-C-sized Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor and BIONZ X image processor that produces high-resolution still images and full HD movies. It has marked low-light quality and sensitivity to ISO 25600. Be able to enjoy continuous shooting up to 11 fps and an intelligent Fast Hybrid AF system that uses both phase- and contrast-detection methods to quickly and accurately acquire focus.

• It has a 3.0" 921k-dot XtraFine LCD screen features a tilting design to facilitate easier use from both high and low angles.
• The 24.3MP APS-C-sized Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor and BIONZ X image processor work together to produce high resolution, well-detailed imagery with minimal noise and notable low-light quality and sensitivity to ISO 25600.
• The sensor utilizes a gapless on-chip lens design that fills the gaps between neighbouring pixels with optimized lenses that match the angle of incidence to increase light gathering ability and produce sharper quality images. 

 

α6000

Quicker autofocus than a DSLR

Shoot better with the α6000: superb 24 MP quality, quick autofocus — and very portable. Add an OLED Tru-Finder™, manual controls, and a range of lenses, for a superior alternative to bulky DSLRs.

Shoot in 0.06 seconds with ultra-fast autofocus

The perfect moment, captured perfectly

Unlike many competitors, the α6000’s Fast Hybrid AF combines the strengths of both phase- and contrast-detection autofocus. With a class-leading 179 phase detection points (covering almost the entire image), and a high-speed contrast-detection function, the result is not only an impressive 11fps burst mode, but also highly accurate movement tracking for both stills and video.

Sony launches a new age of autofocus

4D FOCUS enables superior autofocus performance in four dimensions: wide autofocus coverage (2D height and width), fast autofocus speed (3D depth) and enhanced predictive tracking (4D time).

Quality starts with the sensor

More area for more detailed images

The truth is simple: better images begin with bigger sensors, and the α6000 outclasses many cameras in its category. Its APS-C size sensor offers 1.6 times the area of 4/3 sensors, and 13 times that of the 1/2.3 sensors of typical compact digital cameras. The result is an outstanding level of quality in every image.

Sharper details, faster AF

BIONZ X™ Processor

With three times the processing speed of earlier models, the new BIONZ X™ is able to accurately capture textures, reduce blurry details, and even suppress visual noise in specific areas to ensure sharp images. All these advantages apply equally to still images or video.

Exmor®2 CMOS sensor

The new 24.3MP APS HD sensor features optimized light gathering (through angled micro-lenses) and improved light sensitivity.

Advanced processor

The BIONZ X™ image processor ensures images of the highest quality and provides the muscle needed for ultra-fast AF.

Amazing shots in low light

The extremely high ISO range lets you shoot natural, nuanced photos in dim light or indoors without a flash.

Introducing ultra-fast autofocus

Capture everything from flying water droplets to fleeting smiles

An ultra-fast autofocus makes the α6000 one of the most versatile interchangeable-lens cameras available. At a mere 0.06 seconds, you're assured of getting the perfect shot in any situation, from family events to sports and nature.

Never miss the perfect shot

Fast Hybrid AF

The advanced Fast Hybrid AF enables more scenes to be focused via phase-detection only (reducing reliance on the contrast-detection mode), delivering fast AF to capture your subject at the exact moment you intend.

Wider frame coverage

Ultra-precise 179 AF points for greater coverage.

More autofocus points mean a better chance of capturing a perfectly sharp image, and with a class-leading 179 AF points, the α6000 provides extensive frame coverage and continuous, precise location of your subject⎯no matter where in the frame they may be.

 

11fps continuous shooting with AF tracking

Capturing an impressive 11 photos a second wouldn’t mean much if they were blurry. That’s where the α6000 excels; you get a very high frames-per-second (fps) rate while the superior AF tracking ensures your selected subject is crisp and clear.

 

Smooth AF enhances your movies

The α6000’s impressive AF capabilities are not just limited to still photos. It uses the same phase-detection priority to ensure fast focusing and smooth tracking to give a professional polish to your most demanding video projects.

Stop the action, not the thrills

Freeze your subject at an amazing 11fps for dramatic shots that capture the exact moment or expression you’re looking for.

Shoot cinematically

With Full 1080 HD at 60p or 24p, you can make the aesthetic choice to capture film-like motion in your videos.

Lock-on AF tracking image

AF features for any scene

Eye AF, Lock-on AF and more let you delegate that aspect to the camera, freeing you to concentrate on the content of the scene.

More camera. Less to carry.

Expert features, customizable buttons, and manual controls in a compact, lightweight design.

Convenient companion

The α6000 is smaller and lighter than comparable DSLRs

The saying in photography is that the best camera is the one you have with you. With its compact size and light weight, the α6000 compares favorably to bulkier, heavier DSLRs. Yet with the creativity of interchangeable lenses, manual controls and more, you sacrifice nothing.

Smarter viewfinder for better photos

The OLED Tru-Finder™ EVF is another of the α6000’s expert-level tools, with rich real-time data for planning and previewing shots. Exposure Control compensates for overly bright/dim scenes, Focus Zoom accurately enlarges a chosen detail, and Display Mode reveals histograms and more.

Lenses: the ultimate creative tool

Experiment with interchangeable E-mount lenses and beyond.

Snap, tap, and share.

Wi-Fi and NFC (Near Field Communication) connectivity make it simple to show, and share, your genius. It requires no complicated setup and—in one step—enables the transfer of photos or movies to NFC-compatible Android smartphones or tablets.
