Testing Sony A6000 hi-speed continuous shooting at 11 frames per second
The Sony A6000 has a burst mode capable of taking 11 frames per second.
To take the series of shots below, I set the Drive Mode on Continuous Shooting: Hi (11 fps). Other settings were:
- Image resolution was on highest JPEG (6000×4000 pixel)
- The SD card Sandisk Extreme Class 10, 45 MB/s
- Automatic AF
- Zoom 16-50
- Exposure time: 1/400 s
- F number: 5.0
- Exposure program: Aperture priority
- ISO speed rating: 100
It looked like the camera was able to take 20 frames in 2 seconds.

The shots were sharp. Pretty impressive, isn’t it?
