The Sony A6100 is an excellent all-rounder mirrorless camera that is super compact and lightweight. It supports interchangeable lenses, making it the perfect place to start if you’re looking to grow your photography skills first and your lens collection further down the track. It has a high resolution 24.2-megapixel APS-C image sensor, a built-in electronic viewfinder, and records 4K video as well as still images at an ultra-fast 11 frames-per-second.

24.2-megapixel Image Sensor

At the heart of the A6100 is an APS-C sized image sensor that captures sharp images as well as ultra-high resolution 4K footage. The sensor boasts an ISO sensitivity range of 100-320,00 that can be extended to 512,00 thanks to the advanced Bionz-X image processor.

BIONZ X Processor

If the sensor is the heart of the camera, then the Bionz-X image processor is the brains behind it all. It crunches data read off the sensor to deliver impressive low-light performance and autofocus capabilities. It handles a huge amount of data and delivers eye-AF, which is a first at this price point.

Rear Tilting LCD Screen

The back of the camera has a large 3-inch LCD screen with a 921K dot resolution that can be tilted up and down, allowing you to get more creative with your compositions while still checking your shot on the back screen.

Built-in Electronic Viewfinder

Another neat feature of the A6100 is the built-in electronic viewfinder to help frame and compose your shot. The other benefit is that it allows the camera be used in bright sunny conditions, saving you squinting at the back of the camera. Mirrorless cameras also have an advantage over traditional models because when you look though the viewfinder you see exactly what the camera does.

Wi-Fi for Image Transfer & Remote Control

The A6100 has built-in Wi-Fi connectivity that allows you to connect a mobile device direct to the camera for transferring images, video and for remotely controlling the camera. This ensures you can get content you create online as soon as possible to share with your family and friends.

Ultra-High Resolution 4K Video Recording

Sony have supercharged the A6100 with the ability to record ultra-high resolution 4K video that comes to life when played on a 4K television. 4K video has such a high image quality that a single frame can be exported from the video and printed as big as A3.

Advanced Autofocus System

Boasting a 425 phase detect hybrid autofocus system, the A6100 can follow the eye of a person as they move through your frame with advance Eye-AF tracking technology. The camera also has the real-time tracking autofocus feature first seen in the A9 system that tracks the movement of your subject so you can capture sharp and in focus images every time.

11 Frames-per-second Burst Shooting

The Sony Alpha A6100 is built with a mechanical shutter than captures up to 11 frames every second, making it great choice to capture shots at your local sports event, as well as nature and animal photography.
