Sony A6300 sensor review: Sony’s best APS-C sensor to date 2019

With a 24-amics sensor for still shots, videographers will appreciate UHD 4K video at 30 fps and a 3.0-inch 0.9 M-dot tilting LCD monitor.

 The magnesium alloy body is weatherproof, and despite the small size, the camera features a small 2.3M-dot electronic viewfinder with 0.7M magnification.

Sony A6300 sensor Measurement: Sony's best-performing APS-C sensor


The A6300 achieved a DxOMark score of 85 points, making it currently the best performing APS-C size sensor in the company's range.

This shows a performance advantage over both the 24-Mpix A6000 and A77 II, as well as the highly-regarded NEX-7 (brought back in 2011).

 The sensor at the base has an excellent low noise level, resulting in a wide dynamic range of +13.7 EV, yet retains both a relatively wide dynamic range and low noise at high ISOs, especially when compared to those earlier models.

Like previous tests, the DxOMark score reflects the performance of the sensor and is not intended as an overall rating for the camera.

Comparison 1: Sony A6300 vs Sony A7 II vs Sony A6000: Outstanding Mobility
Comparing the performance of the sensor with the earlier APS-C A6000 and full-frame A7 II, we can see that the new chip in the A6300 shows some interesting results.

In fact, despite the A7 II being slightly less noisy (as we might expect from the larger surface area of ​​the sensor), the A6300 has comparable dynamic range at the base, and thanks to mid-range enhancements at ISO 1600 , It has a slightly wider dynamic range.

The A6000, on the other hand, has a slightly lower dynamic range (though still good) at the base, but is far from ISO 800.

 The color sensitivity results show a similar pattern to the A6000; And finally, the A7 II has the upper hand in low light, which extends to +0.75 EV gain compared to our low-light ISO.

 Nevertheless, the A6300 achieves an impressive result, even though it confirms the advantage that the full-frame sensor has over the cropped imagers.

Sony A6300 sensor Canon EOS 80D vs Sony A6300 vs Nikon D7200: Competitive Performer


The A6300's relatively high price makes it stand out against some formidable DSLR models with impressive sensors.

We'll leave a discussion about the properties of different models to sites run by our good friends at DPReview, but purely in terms of sensor dynamics, the low A6300 is similar to the Nikon D7200 in the entire gamut.

 The new sensor in the Canon EOS 80D is also impressive in terms of imaging performance; However, this may not quite match the noise-low level of the opponent.

That's not to say that the Canon sensor is in any way a bad performer - not at all, but it's still not quite up to par with its peers (and the camera itself may be better than one in other ways, but that's not us 'Discussion again). Canon has lower color sensitivity in every ISO setting, while the A6300 is comparable to the D7200.

 However, while the A6300 has a wider DR than the EOS 80D at every ISO setting, the D7200's DR is not so impressive at least at ISO.

 The mid-range boost matches the A700 to the D7200, which is good news, but ultimately accounts for a slightly better overall score. All three models, however, perform well in comparison to our low-light ISOs, with Canon close to third.

The conclusion


Sony's A6000 sensor was class-leading when introduced and while the sensor in the A6300 is in the same position, it is not alone.

The D7200 has similar performance to the Nikon sensor and the more price conscious D5500. In terms of specifications, the A6300 looks attractive, and for some matrices, its sensor performance, especially the dynamic range, can match the 24-MPP full-frame A7 II.

However, with rivalry rivalry the price seems to be somewhat lower. Even keeping in mind the premium for its 4K video and AF capabilities, it is very difficult for her to compete at this level. But as far as the performance of the sensor is, it is not much better.
