The embargo just broke and plenty of reviewers published their Sony A6300 (p)reviews. Note that the A6300 will start to ship in 10 days according to BHphoto, Amazon and Calumetphoto.de.

For the money this is truly a nice camera to have. I wish the higher frame rate would have been cleaner and audio would be addressed in a more serious matter but I guess there is a limit to what one can ask in this price range. All in all, be it for a family applications or a professional working tool, the Sony a6300 is a very capable tool. Highly recommended!

CameraLabs writes:

“I’m genuinely excited by the new capabilities of the A6300. In my brief time with the camera it felt quicker and more confident at tracking subjects, and I’d be happy to sacrifice 3fps for the new live update in the viewfinder. If it performs as hoped in my tests I’ll definitely be upgrading.”

Engadget writes:

“In my time so far with the A6300, I can already tell you that I’m impressed. The camera’s autofocus system is as fast as advertised, and it works for both stills and videos. Coming from someone who’s used to the higher-end A7R II or A7S II models, the A6300 feels like an upgrade.”

Matthew Durr (Click here) posted the most detailed Sony Cp+ booth report I have seen so far. The United States Navy stationed him in Japan so he find some time to visit the CP+ show:

Sony is so confident in these lenses that they had their own live photo studio set up with multiple A7RII’s and 85mm f/1.4 GM’s, complete with two moving models and props galore. The GM lens lineup brings up the problem many mirrorless shooters are seeing with these cameras—as Sony and others release faster and larger lenses to compete with the big and bulky DSLR lenses, they cannot beat the laws of optics that tend to determine a lens’ weight.

I wish nothing but the best for Sony when the lenses get into the hands of reviewers and real-world testers to see what’s marketing fluff, and what is true performance. I’ve got a feeling Sony is doubling-down on these to help secure E-mount’s future in the pro segment, and they really have put their money where their mouth is. Time will tell.

Take time to read his whole article if you want to get a “feel” of what it means to visit the CP+ show!
