You gonna be shooting 4K video? Video seems like the main improvement over the a6000 after looking at the specs

The upgrade in autofocus and viewfinder as well as 4K video look extremely appealing.

However, the prices on a6000's might be too much to pass up.

Might be honing in on an A6000 bundle on Gumtree(UK's Craiglist) for Β£530 (roughly $750). Comes with 35mm lens, 55/210mm lens, 3 batteries and a 16bg sd card. Is that a steal considering you can get one on amazon with solely a kit lens for $698? Me says steal:patrice:

EDIT: It seems I can get it for Β£500 ($700). Brehs, I need advice :damn:

If everything is working, pull the trigger. The 35MM is a great lens on that camera. Haven't taken it off much since I copped it.

Primarily a Sony RX-10 since I wanted something that was primarily a video camera but could take good stills. I'm gonna upgrade to the RX-10 III eventually but love the images I see from the a6000 and it's form factor.

I was just checking because when you decide on which one you're going with, you have to also factor in lenses. So that 350-400 difference from the a6000 and a6300 could go towards a prime lens... but if that ain't an issue go with your gut
