The editors didn't like
Dated ergonomics
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
Underpowered LCD at default settings
Display not touch-sensitive
No in-camera raw processing
Pretty pricey
No in-body OIS
'Entry level' manual controls
No touchscreen
Kit lens could be better
No advanced image stabilization
The LCD doesn't offer touchscreen control
There are few customisable controls
We had trouble connecting the camera to the PlayMemories app on an iPhone
The so called smart features (additional apps) are an additional cost and generally disappointing

If you have no prior commitments to another photo system, the A6300 won't disappoint you for the money — but a lack of long focal lengths and a slightly-flawed approach means this camera isn't ready to replace everyone's SLR just yet...

Speedy AF, excellent image quality, great video quality and feature set
No touchscreen, fixed EVF, no inbody image stabilization, no headphone jack
At $1,000, the a6300 is missing features, such as a touchscreen or tilting EVF, found on competitive models, but those aren't major liabilities. More serious drawbacks, at least for some users, include a limited flash sync speed (1/160th) and a slower mec...

Sony's A6000 sensor was class-leading when it was introduced, and while the sensor in the A6300 is in a similar position, it's not alone. Nikon's sensors in the D7200 and the more cost-conscious D5500 perform similarly. In terms of specifications, the A63...
High build and image quality (photo and video), Extra sealing against dust and splashwater, Fast, light-sensitive AF, Hundreds of AF points (both phase detection and contrast detection) over the whole sensor, No blackout during series shots, 4K video, Fre
List price over 1,000 euros, Short battery life, No built-in image stabilization (Sony A7 II series does have that), Screen only tilts, No disc for the index finger, Overheating of the sensor from extended recording in 4K
Abstract: These days, many (if not most) consumers are likely to shop based on price and capability, rather than according to whether a certain model contains a mirror, or not. We think this is a good thing; with all the increased competition, cameras are improving...

You can make some really amazing stuff with just an iPhone, but smartphones do have limits. They don't feature interchangeable lenses, they come with fixed apertures, and don't have the optical zooming capabilities that standalone cameras possess. This pl...

Excellent high resolution photos, Amazingly fast Auto Focus at 0.05 seconds, 425 phase detection points, 4K video with no pixel binning, Tough, rugged build, Great price
Difficult to manually set a focus point, clumsy main control button/dial layout
Our bottom line for the Sony a6300 4K mirrorless interchangeable lens camera is that this is one superb, well priced shooter for almost any consumer or even prosumer needs. If you want high performance and especially high low light performance on a budge...
