Sony Alpha a6000 24.3MP Mirrorless Digital Camera with 16-50mm OSS Lens (Black)

Capture crisp and clear images and record Full HD with the Sony Alpha a6000 24.3MP Mirrorless Digital Camera. It is equipped with a 24.3MP Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor offers a better coverage than the 4/3 and 1/2.3 sensors of typical compact digital cameras. The improved BIONZ X Processor ensures that all the images and videos captured by Sony Alpha a6000 is of the highest quality with reduced visual noise. The camera uses a Fast Hybrid AF that combines both phase- and contrast-detection autofocus to quickly focus your subject and capture it – all within 0.06 seconds. The Alpha a6000 Mirrorless Camera comes packed with features like OLED Tru-Finder, manual controls, and is compact and portable as compared to the bulky DSLRs in the same range.

Astounding Images

At the heart of the Sony a6000 Camera is a 24.3-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor and BIONZ X image processor that work together to produce superb corner-to-corner lifelike images with supreme detail and smooth tonal gradations that reveal every nuance of your scene. The sensor offers high sensitivity in dimly lit environments and strikingly attractive foreground and background defocusing – perfect for capturing portraits or close-ups. The sensor ensures extremely low noise throughout a wide sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 25600, while the processor’s advanced area-specific noise reduction significantly reduces visual noise, resulting in sharp images with finer details.

Fast Hybrid AF System for Quicker Autofocus

The Fast Hybrid AF System utilizes both phase- and contrast-detection autofocus, unlike many other DSLRs. Thanks to 179 phase detection points that cover almost the entire image and a high-speed contrast-detection function that result in impressive 11 fps burst shots and highly accurate movement tracking for both stills and video. With an astonishing ultra-fast autofocus, you’re assured to never miss a shot!

4D Focus

The Sony mirrorless camera also comes with a new 4D Focus feature that enables superior autofocus performance in four dimensions. It offers wide autofocus coverage, fast autofocus speed, and enhanced predictive tracking.

Cinematic Full HD Videos

With a simple click of the “Movie” button, the a6000 Digital Camera starts recording beautiful movies in your choice of 60p, 60i or 24p. As said before, the Fast Hybrid AF system provides remarkably fast and accurate auto-focusing and movement tracking while shooting movies.

Stunning Low Light Photos

With an extremely high ISO of 25600, the Sony Alpha a6000 captures amazing stills in dimly lit environments or indoors without a flash. For an additional burst of light, the camera features a pop-up flash and a standard hot shoe for external flash accessories.

Smart Viewfinder

The camera comes with a 0.39" 1.4M-dot OLED Tru-Finder EVF that gives you clear edge-to-edge views with rich real-time data for planning and previewing shots. You can also use the 3" 921k-dot rear Xtra Fine LCD display for comfort shooting. The screen smoothly tilts to accommodate everything from low to high-angle shooting.

Wireless Connectivity

Wi-Fi and NFC (Near Field Communication) connectivity lets you easily share your clicks to your smartphone for sharing them online to social networking or cloud storage sites. NFC allows for one-touch connection between the camera and NFC-enabled devices, without any complex set-up. The PlayMemories Camera Apps are also supported via the built-in Wi-Fi connection.

Sony 16-50mm OSS Lens
