Yea. Sony has 2 mounts. A for the SLT cameras. And E for the mirrorless. For the a6000, you're locked into the E mount system.
Didn't know, can you recommend a good lens, im just looking to take dope pictures during my vacation at various distances I might go with the 55-210mm

Sony stuff isn’t cheap at all.
But I’d recommend the 18-200
I’m hearing it’s a great all around lens. It will be my next purchase honestly.

I got a question for the advanced photographers out here, how do I keep both the foreground and background in focus at the same time? I know it has something to do with depth of field, I just haven't studied this aspect enough to get it down. Take this pic for example:

The arm is in focus but her face isn't, shyt has been driving me crazy all day :snoop: Also, I was shooting in program mode cause I didn't wanna mess with the knobs all day :snoop:

You have to shoot at a small aperture, like f/8.0 to f/16

When you shoot at f/1.4 to f/4.0 you get the shots like you posted.
