Sony a6000 in 2026 Review

Today we are looking back at the Sony ICLE 6000. This is my Sony a6000 review using it in 2026. It was a very popular a while back but how good is this mirrorless camera today? Well in my opinion it is still one of the best budget mirrorless cameras for photography today. Because you can find them for about 400 euros. You can still use it for travel photography, videography, as a content creator for youtube videos, and much more!

Is this a good cinematic camera for a beginner filmmaker, vlogging or youtube videos? Keep in mind that while it can shoot cinematic video, it is more meant for photography. I will show you a video test using the kit lens.

Because you can still use it as a vlog camera. I will also show street photography samples. It is better than a phone and also good for beginners. But it is not a great budget mirrorless camera for video or vlogging because it has no flip screen and microphone input.
