Leica C-Lux with Sony Alpha a6000 Overview


Let's compare Sony Alpha a6000 with Leica C-Lux. The first model related to Semi-Pro Mirrorless, the second to Large Sensor Compact cameras. Sony A6000 was released in 2014, and Leica C-Lux in 2018. C-Lux is newer, which is a plus. Alpha a6000 4 years older.
The sensor resolution of Alpha a6000 is greater than that of C-Lux. However, the difference of 4 MP is not very significant. The more megapixels the camera has, the more detailed and clear the picture will be. The number of megapixels will also affect the maximum size of the photos, which then can be printed without loss of quality.
At the second camera (C-Lux), the minimum ISO value is lower, which gives more opportunities for shooting in daylight. A larger maximum ISO allows you to take good pictures in the dark. At Sony A6000, the maximum ISO is greater by 12800. C-Lux has image stabilization(Optical), Alpha a6000 doesn’t, it is a big minus. Both cameras feature a 3-inch tilting screen.
Both cameras have a electronic viewfinder. Viewfinder C-Lux has a higher resolution of 2330k dots, Alpha a6000 has a resolution of 1440k dots. Burst mode, also called continuous shooting mode, sports mode or continuous high speed mode, is a shooting mode in still cameras. Sony Alpha a6000 has 10.0 fps continuous shooting.
