Quick Primer on the Sony a6000

Announced back in February 2014, the Sony A6000 became one of the best-selling mirrorless cameras of all time. Even today, thanks to its low price, it remains one of the best entry into the mirrorless camera world.


Pro Tip: Check out What’s In My Camera Bag, if you’re interested in my current camera gear choices!


The Sony Alpha A6000 was based on Sony’s NEX 6 mirrorless compact system camera and has taken the baton over.

The a6000 is no slouch either; it boasts a super-fast hybrid phase/contrast-detection autofocus system along with a blistering 11 fps burst rate.

With the fast capture, you would think the image quality suffers. That’s not the case; the image quality is excellent and smaller than full-frame offerings.

STAY LIKE A LOCAL!
Do you want to know how to make travel (especially long-term) interesting? Stay like a local! To experience a place like a local rather than a tourist gives a whole new dimension to any adventure. I use Airbnb to rent anything from a room to an entire house. If that's not attractive enough, how about $55 off your first stay via Airbnb?

Ergonomics is also refined, with an OLED viewfinder and hinged rear display, which is all packaged into a solid body that is small and lightweight enough to shoot anywhere and carry anywhere.

Despite subsequent iterations of a6xxx cameras that incorporate numerous enhancements, like in-body picture stabilization, the A6000 has stood the test of time.

You can still buy it today at an exceptional value for the price. It is most often offered with a lens kit, together with Sony’s E PZ 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS. It’s a reasonable starting lens that is particularly small and great to travel with, however, no match for the offerings mentioned in this article.

Why Choose a6000 Series?

Though this series came out before the equally excellent A7 series did, the a6000 series is more of a younger brother to Sony’s flagship full-frame mirrorless cameras.

It matches the APS-C 23.5 × 15.6 millimeter sensor dimensions and consequently able to stay housed in a smaller body. They pack most, if not all, useful features of the A7, including ultra-fast autofocus minus the full-frame sensor.

Which a6000 Series Camera to Choose?

Choosing between the a6400 and a6500 can be tricky. Their title order is out of step with their actual release dates. The a6500 is older than the a6400!

The a6400 is equipped with newer technology like having a 180° flipping screen, quick AF, and superior tracking and unlimited video recording capacities.

However, the a6500 still boasts a broader ISO range, larger buffer for continuous shooting with RAW, and with a 5-axis in-body stabilization. Both have 4K shooting, 3.5mm microphone ports, and slow-motion shooting capabilities.

If you happen to own one (no matter which iteration), you know how lucky you are. If you don’t and are considering a travel camera, you should definitely give the A6000 series a hard look. In addition, you will need the best lenses to get the most out of your A6000 series camera.

We’re going to take a look at the best lenses for your A6000 series. We split this line up into two main sections: zoom and prime lenses, with each one having a set of benefits.

Modern zoom lenses provide you with the flexibility of multi-focal lengths in one easy to carry package. Prime lenses, on the other hand, have a fixed focal length but are exceptionally sharp and fast.

No matter what your style and preference, you will find the best lenses for the A6000 series camera below.

The Best Lenses for Sony a6000 Series

No matter which A6000 series camera you have, you will no doubt benefit from having the best lenses alongside it. Below are our picks for the best lenses:

1 – Sony Vario-Tessar 16-70mm TE f/4 ZA OSS

Best standard walk-around zoom for Sony a6000

MSRP: $598
Weight: 0.94 lb
Minimum Focus Distance: 1.48 (Wide) 3.12 ft (Tele)
Maximum Magnification Ratio: 0.11x
Focal Length: 18-105mm, 27-158mm (35mm equiv.) zoom range
Angle Of View (APS-C): 76° 15°
Filter diameter (mm): 72 mm

Lens Overview

Sony Vario-Tessar T E 16-70mm The ideal step up from the Sony E PZ 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS kit lens sold with the A6000 is a considerably higher-quality optic. It is predicated on a Zeiss design that contains four aspherical elements and one ED (Extra-low Dispersion) element, as well as Zeiss’s high-performance T* coatings.

The Vario-Tessar TE 16-70mm lacks both the space-saving, retractable mechanism of this 16-50mm lens but provides a higher overall zoom range, along with a constant-aperture layout, which makes f/4 accessible at any given focal length.

It is not as ‘fast’ as the more pro-grade Sony 24-70mm f/2.8 G Master but is much more compact and affordable. Weighing in at 308g, it seems balanced in an A6000 body and is absolutely excellent for everyday shooting.

The Sony 16-70mm f/4 ZA OSS is one of the best E mount zoom lenses to the Sony a6000, a6300, a6400, and a6500. This lens has a broad focal range, allowing it to capture all types of subjects.

The 16-70mm f/4 lens includes Carl Zeiss anti-reflective coatings to lower glare and ghosting. The Optical SteadyShot picture stabilization minimizes the camera shake on the long end of the focal range or when in low light situations.

This lens does have a small amount of chromatic aberration in the kind of purple fringing near the borders of the framework, but it’s relatively minor and can be managed by stopping down your aperture.

The 16-70mm f/4 has some barrel distortion standard of wide-angle lenses, but it is not severe. In case you need one super flexible glass to have your travels or use while walking around in the city, this is a superb option.

Sony Vario-Tessar T E 16-70mm f/4 ZA OSS
  • Outstanding image quality
  • Constant F4 aperture throughout the zoom range
  • Larger and more massive than the 16-50mm
  • No space-saving retractable mechanism

2 – Sony E 10-18mm f/4 OSS

Best wide-angle and landscape zoom for Sony a6000

MSRP: $798
Weight: 7.94 ounces
Minimum Focus Distance: 0.82 ft (0.25 m)
Maximum Magnification Ratio: 0.1x
Focal Length: 10-18 mm, 15-35mm (35mm equiv.) zoom range
Angle Of View (APS-C): 109 ° – 76 °
Filter diameter (mm): 62 mm

Lens Overview

Sony E 10-18mm f4 OSS Fit this lens for your A6000, and it might feel like taking the blinkers off your camera. The shortest focal length of 10mm is equivalent to having a 15mm lens onto a full-frame camera, providing a large viewing angle of 109 degrees.

The lens is very much like the Sony Vario-Tessar T* E 16-70mm f/4 ZA OSS in terms of layout and handling, with a constant-aperture f/4 score and Optical SteadyShot built-in.

Perfect for dark, cramped interiors, sweeping landscapes, and any time you would like to exaggerate the effect of a perspective, this lens takes over where the 16-70mm leaves off, and with a bit of overlap to play.

Picture quality is quite good besides slightly mediocre sharpness when shooting wide-open at f/4, mainly in more half of the zoom range.

The built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization system of the A6000 gives a 4-stop shutter speed benefit, making it much easier to attain crisp, blur-free video and images.

The inner focusing system allows for a quick AF reaction time, and extra-low dispersion glass prevents chromatic aberration and increases contrast.

The Sony 10-18mm f/4 is super sharp and well built, which is reasonable considering it is likely to be used by landscape photographers. With a minimum focusing distance of under .82 feet, you might even get dramatic perspectives when shooting up close.

Sony E 10-18mm f/4 OSS
  • Ultra-wide viewing angles Continuous Aperture
  • SteadyShot picture stabilization
  • Constant f/4 aperture at max
  • Lackluster sharpness at f/4 and quite pricey

3 – Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS

Best mid to telephoto zoom for Sony a6000

MSRP: $348
Weight: 0.94 lb
Minimum Focus Distance: 3.28 ft
Maximum Magnification Ratio: 0.23x
Focal Length: 55-210mm 82-315mm (35mm equiv.) zoom range
Angle Of View (APS-C): -29 °–7 ° 40.’
Filter diameter (mm): 49 mm

Lens Overview

Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS Costing only about a third of the price of this Sony 16-70mm and 10-18mm lenses above, this lens maintains a relatively compact and lightweight build, mainly since it’s a telephoto lens.

As a result of the 1.5x crop factor of this A6000 and other Sony APS-C format E-mount camera bodies, the lens provides an ‘effective’ zoom assortment of 82.5-315mm in full-frame terms, with powerful telephoto reach in the long run.

Downsizing is mostly as a result of this reasonably narrow aperture score, which shrinks from f/4.5 into f/6.3 as you stretch throughout the zoom range.

It also enables a much higher balance on an A6000 camera compared to lenses like the Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 along with f/4 constant-aperture lenses, which can also be a lot more expensive to purchase. However, sharpness in the lightweight 55-210mm drops off somewhat in more extended zoom settings and maybe better at the broadest available apertures.

The Sony 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 lens is a fantastic sports lens for the Sony a6000, a6300, a6400, and a6500. It’s also a superb alternative for safari because you get all this range to get under 1 pound. This lens will zoom in on your subjects from far enough away that you’d never miss the action while also being just broad enough to catch wildlife shots.

This lens doesn’t have significant distortion, but it will exhibit a relatively large quantity of sun flare once the Sun is near the frame – a bonus to a, depending on your style.

The Optical SteadyShot image stabilization minimizes the look of camera shake by around four stops and does an excellent job of preventing image blur. While this lens may not be able to handle low light in addition to others, when it comes to well-lit sports and wildlife shooting, it does a good job, especially for the price.

Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS
  • Cheap with massive zoom coverage
  • Relatively narrow aperture at the long end
  • Optical SteadyShot
  • Sharpness drops off at more extended zoom settings

4 – Sony FE 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 G Master OSS

Best Extreme telephoto zoom for Sony a6000

MSRP: $2498
Weight: 3.08 lbs
Minimum Focus Distance: 3.22′ / 0.98 m
Maximum Magnification Ratio: 0.35
Focal Length: 100-400 mm zoom range
Angle Of View (APS-C): 16 °-4 °10’2
Filter diameter (mm): 77 mm

Lens Overview

Sony FE 100-400mm f4.5-5.6 G Master OSS This is the heaviest lens we’ve picked for the a6000 series. It’s also one of the most expensive. It’s large, chunky, and weighs in at almost 1.5kg, which makes it feel a mismatch rather than get an A6000 body.

So why is this lens even in the lineup? Well, if you would like monster telephoto zoom reach, there’s no genuine alternative to this lens other than equally large telephoto primes.

You’re presumably not going to be walking around with this lens in the streets of Copenhagen or Oslo, but you’re going to be capturing some serious close-ups from a relative distance if that’s one of your requirements. Add a Sony FE 1.4X Teleconverter, and you’ve really got some serious reach.

Being from Sony’s G-Master line, this one has fully pro-grade build quality and superior performance. The autofocus system is super-fast, perfect for tracking fast-moving wildlife and sporting action, Optical SteadyShot is exceptionally powerful, and image quality is outstanding.

It is pricey to purchase, but you get what you pay for, and also an excellent choice for bird photography, safaris, or faraway portraits.

Sony FE 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 G Master OSS
  • Superb image quality and all-round performance
  • Magnificent 600mm effective telephoto reach

5 – Sony E 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS

Best Beginner all-in-one traveling zoom for Sony a6000

MSRP: $548
Weight: 11.5 oz
Minimum Focus Distance: 1.48′ / 45 cm
Maximum Magnification Ratio: 0.29x
Focal Length: 18-135 mm 27-202mm (35mm equiv.) zoom range
Angle Of View (APS-C): 76° to 12°
Filter diameter (mm): 55 mm

Lens Overview

Sony E 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS If you’re looking for a superzoom lens that provides everything from wide-angle coverage to telephoto reach, in a single bundle, it’s easy to get removed.

We can frequently feel more is merrier, especially at the telephoto end. Sony and Tamron both make 18-200mm superzooms for E-mount cameras like the A6000; however, there are downsides.

The widest available aperture at the long end of the zoom range shrinks to f/6.3, straying a little to the dark side.

A larger zoom range also usually will come with a more significant compromise in picture quality. This 18-135mm is our preferred alternative. It is more lightweight and easy to manage, pairing better using an A6000 body and gives outstanding image quality. Additionally, it has a quicker f/3.5-5.6 aperture score.

The Sony 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS lens is an incredibly versatile lens to the novice photographer. With the crop sensor, the 18mm wide end is solidly wide without entering ultra-wide land. The 135mm telephoto end will also provide a reasonable sum of reach for if you want to zoom in.

The variable maximum aperture is most likely not fast enough for aspiring photographers; however, the image stabilization can keep your photos sharp even when you need to slow your shutter speed a little bit to compensate for low light.

Variable maximum apertures mean that on the 18mm end of this range, you are able to open your aperture as broad as f/3.5.

However, on the telephoto end, your maximum is limited to only as wide as f/5.6. But for a lens of this range, it does have a comparatively close 1.5′ minimum focusing distance, which is nice in smaller spaces. This is a great and affordable travel lens.

Sony E 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS
  •  Good zoom coverage (7.5x)
  • Built-in optical stabilization
  • Good distortion and vignette performance
  • Could be wider for the crop factor sensor of the a6000

6 – Sony 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS LE

Best all-around travel zoom for Sony a6000

MSRP: $848
Weight: 1.01 lbs
Minimum Focus Distance: 0.3 (Wide)–0.5 m (Tele) (0.99 [Wide])–1.64 ft.
Maximum Magnification Ratio: 0.11x
Focal Length: 18-200 mm 28-320mm (35mm equiv.) zoom range
Angle Of View (APS-C): 76° 8°
Filter diameter (mm): 62 mm

Lens Overview

Sony 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS LE This lens is much like the lens above but with just a tiny bit more reach on the telephoto end (but that includes a forfeit in a maximum aperture in the range).

The 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS LE is a good alternative for photographers looking for a high-quality wide-to-long-range zoom.

Although this lens is notorious for taking quite sharp pictures, especially in the long run, its biggest asset is most likely its wide focal selection, which allows for one lens to be used in a variety of configurations and even for the video! It’s also quiet; a linear motor is inherited from higher-end Sony camcorders.

Because of its variable aperture range of f/3.5-6.3, it’s not quite as capable as some of the others in low light conditions. But if you’re shooting in well-lit areas, it is more than competent. This lens produces no apparent fringing throughout most of its focal length and only a tiny amount in both 18mm and 200mm.

As expected with a lens using this wide of a focal range, some barrel distortion will occur, particularly near 18mm. Post-processing in Lightroom or even Photoshop may fix these problems. The vast focal range makes this among the very best travel lenses for Sony E mount cameras.

7 – Sony FE 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 G OSS

Best carry around long zoom lens for Sony a6000

MSRP: $1,173.00
Weight: 1.88 lbs
Minimum Focus Distance: 0.3 (Wide)–0.5 m (Tele) (0.99 [Wide])–1.64 ft.
Maximum Magnification Ratio: 0.31x
Focal Length: 70-300mm 105-450mm (35mm equiv.) zoom range
Angle Of View (APS-C): 34° to 8° 10′
Filter diameter (mm): 72 mm

Lens Overview

Sony FE 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 G OSS for Sony A6000 Making a super-telephoto range at a portable form factor is uncommon. The Sony FE 70-300mm is a sports-and-wildlife-dedicated lens that is also under 2 lbs. It features dust and moisture resistance for use outdoors and has a convenient Focus Zoom button for crucial shots.

Its focal range equal to a crop sensor is 105-450mm, which is phenomenal reach. A unique Focus Range Limiter allows you to constrain the available focusing array to either 9.8′ to infinity or the full range of 3′ to infinity for rapid focusing during sports and wildlife shooting.

Equipped with Optical SteadyShot image stabilization, this lens can perform admirably when shooting with slower shutter speeds but do notice that it’s a variable maximum aperture that will sacrifice your wide aperture options in the long end of the range. It’s sharp throughout although it is a hair thinner in the wide end of the range.

Slimming down your gear will enhance your results, which is typical of several zooms in this range. Do note that this lens doesn’t have any panning or tripod-sensing collars, which could be sorely missed in a lens of this type intended for wildlife and sports. The variable aperture means you’re losing some light, and the focusing does tend to slow down in lower lighting conditions.

Focal Length: 20mm
Angle Of View (APS-C): 70°
Filter diameter (mm): 49 mm

Lens Overview

Sony E 20mm f/2.8 Pancake for Sony A6000 This is one weird lens, a mere slip of a thing, this pancake lens is just 63x20mm small and weighs 69g. It’s meant to be small and light. Couple it with an A6000, and you have a perfect package for travel photography.

The sufficient focal length of 35mm is ideal, and the ensemble is little enough for you to shoot candidly without drawing attention to your self, so it’s perfect for street photography in crowded streets of Paris or London.

It’s one of those few lenses in this roundup that lacks Optical SteadyShot, but the f/2.8 aperture makes up for it and is faster than that of zoom lenses.

The only catch is that, when shooting wide-open, sharpness is only so-so instead of good, and vignetting (darkened picture corners) is quite noticeable. At apertures of between f/4 and f/8, image quality really goes tack sharp.

Minimum Focus Distance: 11.81 inches
Maximum Magnification Ratio: 0.149x
Focal Length: 35mm 52.5 (35mm equiv.)
Angle Of View (APS-C): 44°
Filter diameter (mm): 49 mm

Lens Overview

Sony E 35mm f/1.8 OSS for Sony A6000 The so-called ‘nifty fifty’ is a higher standard lens class on full-frame cameras, in which it gives a standard viewing angle. Nearly every photographer will have had the pleasure to use the ’50 mm’ lens on every camera system.

Why? Because it’s sharp, little to no distortion, fast, and usually very cheap on full-frame cameras.

Take the 1.5x crop factor of the Sony A6000’s sensor into account, and this lens includes an almost identical 52.5mm focal length and a generally fast aperture of f/1.8.

The design makes perfect sense, as the lens would have to be considerably more substantial and bigger if it had an f/1.4 aperture rating, and less well balanced on cameras like the A6000.

Sharpness and contrast are excellent, thanks in no small part to quality glass that includes two aspherical elements and an ED (Extra-low Dispersion) element. For handheld shooting beneath dull lighting, Optical SteadyShot is another bonus. We’d expect this lens to be the sharpest at this range, and we’re not complaining, but it could stand to be sharper than it is.

Lens Overview

Sony E 50mm f/1.8 OSS for Sony A6000

Having a sufficient focal length of 75mm on an APS-C format Sony body like the A6000, and also a fast f/1.8 aperture makes this is a fantastic lens for portraiture.

You’ll be able to take shoulders and head along with half-length portraits from an ideal space, not crowding your sitter while being close enough to engage together.

The f/1.8 aperture allows a tight depth of field, which means you can throw the background out of focus and produce the person you’re photographing really stand out from the image.

Corner-sharpness is a small poor at apertures wider than f/5.6, but that shouldn’t be an issue in portraiture. The aperture remains fairly well-rounded when stopping down somewhat from f/1.8; however, based on seven rather than nine diaphragm blades, it could be better.

Lens Overview

Sony FE 90mm f/2.8 G OSS Macro for Sony a6000 As a little big for the a6000 show camera, the Sony FE 90mm is worthy of almost any E mount list. It is very popular and scores excellently on DXOMARK.

Offering a 1:1 magnification ratio and a fast f/2.8 maximum aperture, this lens works as well for portraits as it does for work. It features a focus hold button, which, when pressed, keeps the lens secured to that focusing distance. This makes fragile macro shooting and wildlife tracking simpler.

This lens is equipped with a linear motor which delivers, fast, smooth and silent autofocus for shooting movie. Additionally, it offers Optical Image Stabilization to minimizes the appearance of camera shake when shooting at slower shutter speeds.

The 90mm focal length is long enough to give you the distance between you and your macro subject (you frequently don’t want to be too near insects and other small living animals ) while also being extended enough for a few wildlife issues.

The bokeh possible is strong with this particular lens, an excellent attribute for portraits.

Tips for Taking Awesome Photos with your A6000 Camera and Lenses

Here are some photography tips to improve your A6000 photos.

Use a Tripod Whenever Possible

The A6000 has 3-axis in-body stabilization, and some lenses on this list add optical stabilization (the other 2 for a total of 5 axes). In layman’s terms, it just allows it so you can shoot handholding the camera and lens without getting blurred images. Some people report going 2 – 4 stops (some even longer with steady hands!) before the images start getting blurred.

camera mounted on tripod

You’ll need a tripod to get a shot like this.

So generally on a bright day, you can shoot 1/120 second shutter speed, and when it gets darker, you might need to shoot 1/30 second shutter speed – without the stabilization, these images will already be blurred because of the handshake (every human’s hand will have movement).

Using a tripod, even a small cheap one, can make the difference between an OK photo vs. a remarkable photo. Sure, there’s an in-body image stabilization built inside the body of the A6000 series camera, but you’re not going to be able to capture images that require long f-stops (think motions). A tripod, along with the right lens, is one of the best investments you will make as a photographer. Check out our recommendations for the Best Travel Tripods for Under $100.

Shoot Using Auto Exposure Bracketing (AEB) Mode

Find the AEB function on your camera (read the manual) – that stands for Auto Exposure Bracketing.

Use it whenever you can. It takes three or more photos in succession with an over and underexposed version of the image.

This will give you a little bit of leeway in exposure mistakes and extra capabilities to process the image in HDR or something similar later.

AEB allows you to capture subsequent shots in different exposures in increments you choose. You can have the camera capture 3, 5, and sometimes nine shots in succession, with each one a different exposure than the other.

Memory is pretty much cheap nowadays, so it’s best just to capture different exposure for each shot. It’s also great as insurance for over and underexposure.

Shoot During the Golden Hour

On bright days. The best times to shoot are during the golden hour, which is the period of daytime shortly after sunrise or before sunset – roughly 1-2 hours. Shoot with your back facing the Sun or 90 degrees for best results. If you want really dramatic shots, shoot facing the Sun for silhouettes or even HDR if you do #1 above with five or more photos in succession.

Turn on the Rule of Thirds Grid on the Viewfinder

Your camera will have a grid option on the viewfinder. Turn on the rule of thirds. Use it to compose your image. Try to place the subject where lines intersect on the viewfinder. Here’s a good article about it: https://www.photographymad.com/pages/view/rule-of-thirds

Use Some Filters

Filters are fun and great for creativity. Mount one on your lens and have a go. A polarizer should be the first filter you buy. Read why you should get a polarizer.

Shoot in RAW mode

Shoot in RAW (instead of JPEG) or a combination of both whenever you can. The RAW mode will capture all the information that your camera’s sensor is capable of while JPEG will compress the information in an algorithm – which is lossless (you will lose some data). RAW is excellent for archival and post-processing later if you want.
