>>3304666>It has a relatively modern and capable sensor, The sensor is the ONLY thing it has going for it, but a sensor alone is not a reason to buy a camera. A camera is not a sensor. The Nikon D3300 has the same 24 MP sensor, but that doesn't make it a desirable camera to own, either. There's a reason why Nikon can get away with charging $6000 for the D5, even though the sensor has 4 fewer megapixels than the Sony a6000.
>a very nice evf, "A very nice" is code for "it's small by today's standards, but it was still considered competitive back in the more limited market conditions of 2014."
>enough controls wheels for manual control, "Enough," but not adequate. Most people will be menu-diving routinely.
>and an interface that works decently enough"decently enough"...that sure doesn't sound like a glowing endorsement.
>after customization (the menus are pretty dated and bad out of the box though).Wow.
>Combined with the fact you can adapt pretty much any lens ever made to the thing, it is quite a nice buy.Just an admission that the native lenses suck and the way many people will use the camera is without autofocus, i.e., as if it were such a low tech, out-of-date machine that it was designed in the 1970s.
