If you know you want a great camera but you’re not sure exactly what a mirrorless camera entails, don’t worry. We’ve got great explainer on what is a mirrorless camera is and how it differs from DSLR cameras. Basically, it’s a camera that has an imaging sensor that is exposed to light at all times instead of bouncing the image around via mirror (as in the case with a DSLR). That offers advantages you don’t get with a DSLR.
We previously checked out the best mirrorless cameras and found the Sony A6100 to be a great beginner’s device so it’s a similar story for the Sony Alpha a6000.
