Sigma fp vs Sony A6000

Let's take a deeper look at the Sigma fp vs Sony A6000, both Advanced Mirrorless digital cameras by competitors Sigma and Sony. The resolution of the fp (25MP) and the A6000 (24MP) is relatively well matched but the fp (Full frame) and A6000 (APS-C) posses different sensor sizing.

The fp was manufactured 5 years after the A6000 which is quite a large gap as far as tech is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before going straight to a step-by-step comparison, here is a brief overview of how the fp matches up against the A6000 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Below is a preview of the gallery photos for Sigma fp and Sony Alpha a6000. The entire galleries are viewable at Sigma fp Gallery and Sony A6000 Gallery.

For anyone who is going to travel with your camera often, you need to consider its weight and dimensions.

Oftentimes, it can be tough to imagine the gap between sensor dimensions only by reading through specs. The pic underneath will offer you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the fp and A6000.

All in all, both of these cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The fp due to its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF easier and the Sigma fp will give more detail due to its extra 1 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop pictures way more aggressively. The fresher fp provides an edge with regard to sensor tech.
