Sony a6100
2019 · 24.2 MP · 23.5 x 15.6 mm · 396 g · 4K 30p (3840 x 2160)
The Sony a6100 is the entry point to Sony's 24 MP APS-C mirrorless line, suited to families, students and first-time camera buyers. Its strengths are the 425-point phase-detection autofocus shared with the a6400, bursts of up to 11 frames per second, and 4K video at up to 30p, all in a 396 g body with a built-in viewfinder. Battery life is rated at about 420 shots per charge. There is no in-body stabilisation, so stabilised lenses matter for slow shutter speeds. On paper it matches the a6400 on resolution, autofocus points, burst speed and video, which makes it the simpler way into the same system.
