tldr; The legendary budget camera. Still works, incredible value used.

Best praise vs top criticism for Sony a6000
“Just got an a7iv as a hobbyist this year and would say that I would be overwhelmingly happy with either the a7iv or a7v based on the reviews alone. Coming from an a6000, I found the autofocus on the a7iv to be better with Sony lenses than with my Sigma, which wasn’t the case with my a6000. Honestly, the Sony ecosystem seems to be so well rounded because of the versatility of the e mount, the selection of lenses, and now with a strong mid range and pro camera line up, with the only exception being video, which is where I see the most complaints from people online. As someone that uses the a7iv for photography, and only uses the video sparingly, and is happy with the super 35 crop for fast moving videography, I don’t think I was wrong to get the a7iv steeply discounted and get to enjoy the hobby. Happy new camera day to all in the sub.”
“Holy CRAP, I just saw a number of these for sale during my crazed frenzy to replace my stolen gear prior to my next scheduled shoot (my house was broken into and everything of value stolen, including my A6000 and $800 ultra wide angle lens (I can’t do my job without it.) I was like “JESUS that’s a BIG LENS!” Like, it really looks like it would weigh enough that it drags the body of the camera downward!”
