* Some very nice shots in there.
* It's a very capable little camera. I still have my NEX-5N...

I recently picked up the A6000 and I am falling in love with it, liking it more thamy D750 for video for some reason. What Lens and Picture profiles do you use? The images look great along with the grading

I use the A6k as the B cam to my A7s. Every since the FW update brought XAVC I'm constantly shocked at how close the footage looks to the A7s.

Just did the update last night, now to buy SD cards that will work for XAVC

My settings for the NEX-5N work great on the a6000 as well: http://www.similaar.com/foto/flaat-5n/index.html

The a6000 doesn't have slog2, and it's not as clean as an a7S, but it's very nice anyway. It has some aliasing/moire but it's monochrome so much less of a problem than the old Canon rainbows:

An a7000 with IBIS and clean internal 4K and slog2 or even slog3 woudn't be "humble" at all. Actuallly it would be 90% of an a7S II for less than half the price including a speedbooster... (I've been waiting for this since the spring)
