GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Holidays, Casual Shooting & Fujifilm Colour Fans — QuickSnap Flash 400: Fujifilm's disposable camera favourite — cooler tones and fine grain give a different character to Kodak. The go-to for those who prefer Fuji's aesthetic.
Travel, Street & Versatile Everyday Photography — A6500 (2016): The first Sony APS-C with IBIS — the A6500 added in-body stabilisation, touch AF, and a far deeper buffer to the A6300's already strong formula.
Who should buy what
A6500 (2016)
- Travel photographers who want IBIS in a compact weather-sealed E-mount body
- A6300 owners who need the stabilisation or touch AF the A6300 lacked
- Street and documentary photographers who want a capable compact with weather sealing
- Sony E-mount shooters looking for a capable used body at an accessible price
Quick take: The quicksnap flash 400 is the most affordable; only the a6500 is weather sealed. Scroll down for the full spec breakdown.
