Hi all,
I just had a chance to compare the two cameras. Earlier I had read online that the a6300 is just a slight upgrade to the a6000 while some said that the sensor is much better at high ISO. Well my findings are
1) focus is just a little faster on a6300 specially at night
2) out of the camera, the raw from a6300 between 1600 to 3200 is cleaner but not a lot of difference
3) noise at high ISO 6400 upwards is probably the same.
4) the most significant difference is how the a6300 renders black areas. I have a few pics where the a6000 showed purplish shades even at 3200 ISO while the a6300 always remained black even uptill 25000 ISO.
Conclusion:-
It is very very true that if noise or sharpness is the only reason to upgrade to the a6300 from a6000 then it is not worth it. Yes the files from a6300 is cleaner but only so slightly.
However, the a6300 has no purple cast or shades at all in the black shadows and retains the colour better than the a6000. This can be seen even at low ISO. In fact the blacks remains as good as my ex -a7s.
