Since mirrorless cameras ( mirrorless or EVIL) are at this level, it is difficult to resist them. The struggle between brands to seize this booming market, continues to give us improvements and constant progress. Undoubtedly, one of the brands that stand out in this segment is Sony, which has bet heavily on this type of cameras with more than outstanding results. The magnificent Sony A6300 is one of its flagships and I warn you, it does not disappoint. If you are lucky enough to have a good budget in your pocket to get your first, second or third camera, make a hole in this article, because this may be the camera of your dreams .

This camera is aimed at the medium-high fan who is looking for a light, robust and ultrafast camera and who knows how to take advantage of its high performance. While the focusing speed is going well for us on any occasion, I see an action camera in this camera . If your thing is to photograph and go hunting for the movement (sports, children, etc.) this is a great option because it boasts of having the fastest autofocus in the market (0.05s).GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

Without a doubt, what stands out of this camera is the speed and quality of its autofocus, of 0.05s and its multitude of focus points of its hybrid system (425 by phase detection and 169 by contrast detection), which translates in a very effective camera to keep the focus on scenes in constant motion. It also highlights the rapidity of shooting of up to 11fps, as well as the lightness, small size, but at the same time the robustness of its magnesium alignment body or its folding screen of 921,600 points. Its great image quality thanks to its latest generation sensor and processor, with 24MP and a good dynamic range and noise control, also stand out in this little jewel of Sony. And of course the video recording in 4K.WORST
It has no stabilizer in the body, and you have to go look for it in optics. The starting price of the camera exceeded one thousand euros (only the body), although today it has dropped considerably since it went on sale. However, it remains a high price beyond the reach of many enthusiastic photographers, because the body must add an optic (and a good one that lives up to this wonder) . I always think that the problem is not to buy a very good camera (most today they are) but to buy optics that are up to par and can take advantage of the economic investment we make in the body of the camera. And after this reflection, let's see the gallery .GALLERY

The truth is that it is a camera with few buts for anyone or anyone who can afford it and intends to squeeze all its possibilities. A lightweight, robust camera, of very good image quality and sometimes professional benefits. If you like to take the camera on top, photograph the action of the street, sports, etc., I think this can be a great option. No one seems to regret having this jewel with them .Sony Alpha A6300 - Compact Camera with Type E Mount (APS-C CMOS Exmor R Sensor, 24.2 MP BIONZ X processor, 425 AF Points and 4K recording) - Body only * - Electronics
