A6300 - my first impressions


Recommended Posts

A few days ago I received my A6300. After my impressions SONY has taken a big step forward with this camera. I am most impressed with the new AF system and the (opposite the A6000) even higher image quality. And (together with the LA-EA3) my Sony A DT 2.8 / 16-50 mm SSM awakens to new life!

The example image has been created with the E PZ 4,0 / 18-105 mm G OSS.
Image data. F / 11 - 1/350 sec (-0.5) - ISO 100 - focal length 70 mm.

I got mine about 10 days ago and was really impressed about how much better it handles in action settings when compared to the A6000. The new EVF and live action shooting modes are a lot responsive and UHS2 support is nice for clearing of the buffer after continuous shooting. Also I got the feeling that the ISO performance has increased slightly. 

 

Got the chance to shoot some women's football on sunday to test it out: https://goo.gl/photos/4NNJcY8fBzHiiu4x8

 

(I know the pics aren't that great, was just playing with the camera a bit)

I'd love to see someone compare the a6300's copper-connects sensor with the RX100m4's BSI sensor. Aside from being able to swap lenses, I'm not sure if the a6300 takes better stills under what conditions.

Even the A6000 was better. I had both, and the A6000 was cleaner with much more DR at low ISO, way better at mid ISO, and still usable at high ISO where the IV was mush. The A6300 is very similar to the A6000 up to 1600, then starts to pull away up to 6400, and is in a different league past that.

Thanks, that helps  :)

    • I recently got an a7cii and to pair with the compact body, I thought of getting 2 of the trio compact lenses, 24mm F2.8 and 40mm F4.0. (I already have a 70-200mm) However I stumbled upon the newly released 24-50mm F2.8 G. I'm not sure which to get - I like the small factor of the prime lenses ON the body because it's discreet and helps me blend in as an average tourist / doesn't make it obvious when doing street. But if I add the dimensions of the 2 primes together, it takes up more space in the bag than the zoom lens. BUT THEN, the weight of the 2 prime lenses is 110g lesser than the zoom lens. The zoom lens has the added benefit of being more versatile.   So now I'm stumped. Each has their pros and cons and I can't decide which to get. I'd like to hear the views of you guys who are more experts at this.   Edit: I'm a bit concerned about weight because the last time I went overseas my shoulders were aching from carrying too much. Which is why I was looking for small compact primes in the first place.
    • Hi, I have got a6300 which shutter stopped working. I managed to change shutter but unfortunatelly broke shutter motor tape but I fixed that. After repair the shutter is working but not in a proper way, watch with sound. I bought the second shutter and tried to test it before dissaembling again and it doesn't react to magnet but it works fine when I apply 3V. Are there different type of shutter for a6000 - a6400? Back to the question what is wrong with my shutter after first repair? I don't want to put next shutter unfoundedly. Do your sony cameras perform such a self-check after start up?  IMG_5579 (1).webm
