Have you heard about Ken Rockwell? Well, listen to him..

"Get a DSLR like the Nikons or Canons for serious shooting, or to save money.

Nikon and Canon DSLRs take better pictures, at least if you're as critical about color rendition as I am. They also handle faster, have much better battery life, and cost less for the same features. By the time you spend as much as an a6300 for a DSLR, you're getting a very fancy DSLR. A basic DSLR like the Nikon D3300 or Canon SL1 costs only one-third as much as this A6300, and takes pictures at least as good. Basic DSLRs are also not much bigger or heavier than the A6300.

The A6300 is the girl you date for fun and good times until you find something better, while a DSLR is the woman you marry for a lifetime of serious pursuits. The A6300 is easy and fun, while a DSLR makes better pictures if you're serious beyond just posting on Facebook to be forgotten in a day."

and listen to this one as well..

"Sony and Fuji are completely different from each other:

Ergonomics

Fuji's cameras are designed by and for real photographers. Fuji cameras have far superior ergonomics, with real shutter, aperture, exposure compensation and other dials.

Sony's cameras have the world's worst menu systems, and then they force you to into menus and screens to set the most basic things like ISO and shutter speeds.

Sonys are designed for and by amateurs and online tweakers who don't actually know what's important in a camera.

Quality

Fuji, like Canon, makes almost all of its cameras and lenses domestically in Japan.

Sony usually offshores its cameras — even the $3,200 made-in-Thailand A7R II — to whatever country can do it the cheapest."

I disagree everything Kisaha. Sony has the best ergonomics. Sony is designed by online tweakers because they are heading for the future and want everything designed by people who is online and comparing specifications, reading forums etc rather than out there shooting and wasting time like CaNikon Fuji pros etc.

They off shore to China and Thailand so they can keep the costs down for lovely customers. I heard China and Thailand build quality is better than build quality of devices made in Japan. And Ken Rockwell is also wrong about everything just like you sorry.
