The editors didn't like
No touchscreen
Screen not fully articulated
Some autofocus accuracy slip-ups
Battery life needs to be better
JPEG processing a little harsh for higher ISO sensitivities

Slow startup
Photosaving time is quite slow
Sony's 1650 mm OSS lens should be avoided
No electronic level
Menus could be organised more effectively
The movie record button remains annoying

Abstract: 3. Making really good cameras that are smaller. Sony, in particular, has attacked this item with a vengeance. It has recognized that the Holy Grail is a big sensor inside, to absorb more light and produce better photos, but a small body outside, to make t...

The movie record button remains annoying, and while it delivers excellent photo quality, it's not best-in-class in low light. It's also slow on startup

Overly sensitive eye sensor. Slow start up. EVF lags in very dim light. Lacks analog mic input. Some apps must be purchased

Sony's re-alignment of the range with the new A6000 offering a better performing sensor than the NEX-7 in more –or-less an NEX-6 body is an intriguing development. When making comparisons, it's always worth looking at the camera's capabilities as a whole...
