Question 1

SONY a6000 (better sensor & few reviews)  VS  OLYMPUS EM10 (more lens selection & good reviews)?  Please help me decide which to buy....

Accepted Answer

Questions like yours are always difficult to answer, because of factors like brand loyalty and that there are so many variables it is difficult to be comprehensive or objective. However, since I am going to buy the a6000 I'll give you my two cents.I think the a6000 is the superior camera in at least these 4 categories:1. Sensor quality. Check out dxomark.com to see their sensor scores for the two cameras. The a6000 is a clear winner by their tests. I just like the larger sensor, APS-C, that Sony uses over the micro-four-thirds size the Olympus uses. The downside is that Sony does not have as many lenses as Olympus, so if you already have a micro-four-thirds collection then maybe Sony isn't a good choice, but if you are starting from scratch then I think the Sony sensor is better. It has more pixels and greater sensitivity and it is physically larger, so the greater number of pixels does not necessarily mean less light per pixel.2. Electronic View Finder Location: The EVF for the OLYMPUS EM10 is right in the middle of the camera which means half the camera is going to be smashing into my nose whenever I look through it. The a6000 has the EVF on the left side, so when I look through my right eye I will not have a smashed nose.3. Better autofocus and faster capture speed: the a6000 does 11fps with active focus for each frame. Olympus does 3.5 fps with active focus for each frame.4. Cool apps. I like that Sony is into pairing their cameras with smartphones and you can download apps for the camera. For example there is a time-lapse I'm interested in trying out.If this isn't enough to convince you to buy the a6000 I'd recommend googling for a6000 reviews, because there are some very thorough reviews out there. Also, you might want to ask this question on the black color version of this camera, because there is a longer list of questions there that might indicate more web traffic.Goodluck!

Yes, when you will purchase this Sony A6000,  it includes a rechargeable battery pack NP-FW50 and an AC adaptor (AC-UB10) for charging. As for a case, it depends for you, currently there are a wide variety of camera cases in the market. -Ely

Question 4

Can you use your old nex compatible lenses with this body?

Accepted Answer

This is similar to my question. I have a Sony that is about eight years old. I am not extremely knowledgeable. Generally speaking would those lenses be too old to be compatible with this camera?   I understand there are no guarantees.
