  • No dedicated headphone jack
  • Short battery life
  • Overheating issues in direct sun

  • Fixed EVF

  • With the Sony Alpha 6000 being one of the companys most popular cameras of recent years, the Alpha 6300 has a lot to live up to. Thankfully, it more than lives up to its predecessor and takes Sonys next-generation APS-S-sensor E-mount cameras to the nex...

  • Fast, accurate autofocus, Great image quality, even in low light, Invaluable OLED viewfinder, Compact, lightweight and sturdy build
  • Pretty pricey
  • It's hard to find fault with this camera. Yes, it's expensive (£1,000 body only, or £1,100 with a 16-50mm kit zoom lens), but not crazily so. I'd imagine that there'll be better deals available for the A6300 if you're willing to wait a few months. Price...

  • The Sony A6300 delivers class-leading photo and video quality, plus good performance and features for shooting action
  • Myriad small annoyances mar the experience and it has the trademark poor battery life of Sony's A series. Plus it really could use in-body image stabilization
  • A respectable update to its very popular A6000 mirrorless interchangeable-camera model, the Sony A6300 remains great but also retains some of the drawbacks of its predecessor...

  • Abstract:  As one of Sony's best-selling cameras of the past few years the Alpha 6000 was always going to be a hard act to follow, but the new Alpha 6300 certainly seems up to the task. From the short amount of time we spent with the camera recently, it is clear tha...

  • Blazing fast focus speeds, Insane burst rate, In, camera 4K video

  • Compact design and good build quality, Superb autofocus speeds and tracking, Good ISO performance, 4K video support, Can be charged through USB
  • Battery life could be better, No touchscreeninput, Menu system isn't the most user friendly
  • Sony's A6300 costs a bomb, which puts it somewhere in the vicinity of bigger DSLRs such as Canon's 70D. However, we feel it's certainly one of the best mirrorless cameras currently out there, given the of performance and features it offers in such a compa...

  • Sony a6300, rewrote their definition on how a Mirrorless APS-C Camera should be, and it really stands up to what it claims. And it did catch a lot of attention, because of what it had to offer. Personally, I think it's a great camera and it's definitely...
