0:00.0	Yesterday we got some news from Sony where they announced the A6300 which will be the
0:10.0	successor to the very popular A6,000 that's been out for about two years now.
0:14.8	If this camera performs as well as what they're saying it's going to, this will be a complete
0:19.0	game changer because you're looking at a mirrorless camera that will retail just under US $1,000 and when you consider
0:26.0	what they're putting into this camera it's extremely impressive.
0:29.2	So at the heart of this, rather than be an upgrade from the A6,000.
0:33.0	This is really a redesigned camera

1:03.0	we will see when this comes out in March whether this actually is accurate or not but
1:06.8	it looks like the whole idea here is to give you a more powerful camera that operates
1:10.8	much better in low light in terms of performance you're going to see some major upgrades on camera that
1:15.0	the operates much better in low light. In terms of performance, you're going to see some major upgrades on this camera. Sony is incorporating along with this new sensor a technology that they are calling 4D
1:20.0	autofocus. And what 4D autofocus involves is 425 phase detection
1:25.6	autofocus points which is pretty amazing when you consider the autofocus
