I just bought an A6000 mirrorless camera and love it! I’ve had it for a couple of weeks and so far it’s been great. Low light shooting is excellent and 1080p 60FPS video is nice. I don’t care for the integrated WiFi so don’t use it.

The a6000 is the value champion. It amazing that they can sell it for $600.

That you can get a Sony a7 for only $800 is likewise amazing. Such stellar image quality for so little bank.

It'll be interesting to see Canon and Nikon enter the mirrorless camera space in earnest. Hmm.

I bought a NEX-6 for ~$450 4 years ago and am shocked at the total lack of improvement at that price bracket since then. Of course this was right after the price dropped in response to the A6000. The A6000 is definitely nice but actually has a few regressions compared to the NEX-6, with a lower-resolution viewfinder and losing the electronic level.
Did you evaluate any Olympus, Pentax, or Fuji models? I'm looking into mirrorless cameras now too.
