24.3-megapixel Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor
Create images of astounding beauty that surpass your expectations with Sony’s newly developed 24.3-effective-megapixel APS-C image sensor. The same size as found in the most DSLRs, this sophisticated sensor offers high resolution, high sensitivity in dimly lit environments and strikingly attractive foreground and background defocusing. You’ll enjoy the increased light collecting efficiency of a gapless on-chip lens structure, extremely low noise throughout a wide sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 25600, and superb corner-to corner image quality with lifelike colour, supreme detail and smooth tonal gradations that reveal every nuance of your scene.

BIONZ X image processing engine
Astonishing fast, Sony’s sophisticated BIONZ X image processing engine reproduces textures and details in real time as seen by the naked eye. The resulting images are remarkably realistic with especially rich tonal gradations and a natural three-dimensional appearance. Whether shooting still images or movies, noise is nearly imperceptible thanks to further advanced area-specific noise reduction. Detail reproduction technology delivers more finely detailed textures and diffraction-reducing technology optimizes the performance of any lens you mount to enable advances such as finer details at small aperture settings.

Stunning Quality. Lightning Speed
Reach for the a6000 to enjoy record-breaking AF performance, gorgeous image quality and DSLR-style operation in a compact, lightweight form. The world’s fastest AF performance (0.06 sec)*, 179 wide-area AF points and 11fps continuous shooting with accurate AF tracking let you capture swiftly moving subjects with crystal clarity. Sophisticated new imaging technology and wide-ranging ISO sensitivity deliver astoundingly beautiful image quality in all kinds of scenes. And precision dials combine with an OLED viewfinder to provide quick, intuitive DSLR-style operation. Whenever photographic opportunities arise, satisfy your passion for precision with the new a6000.

The world’s fastest AF performance*
Capture every subject clearly with unparalleled precision at record speed, thanks to Sony’s newly advanced Fast Hybrid AF with vastly improved autofocusing capabilities. It selects contrast-detection AF (Fast Intelligent AF) or phase-detection AF depending on the scene and enables more scenes to be auto-focused via phase-detection method only, resulting in the world’s fastest AF (0.06 sec)*.

179 wide-area focal plane phase-detection AF points
The improved Fast Hybrid AF system features 179 extremely accurate phase-detection AF points that cover nearly the entire image area, enabling enhanced subject tracking and capture of fast-moving subjects anywhere on the screen, as well as improved scene recognition and subject size detection. Also featured are 25 higher-speed, higher precision contrast-detection AF points.

11fps continuous shooting with AF tracking
When your subject is moving fast, 11fps continuous shooting with superior AF tracking performance ensures you capture the decisive moment. This feature makes the most of the superb tracking performance of Sony’s wide-area 179 phase-detection AF points to accurately track your subject anywhere on the screen.
