Here we are comparing two cameras with different body types: Sony A6300, which was introduced in February 2016 is a Advanced Mirrorless camera with a 24.0MP APS-C sensor whereas Pentax KP, which was introduced in January 2017 is a Advanced DSLR camera with a 24.0MP APS-C sensor. There is 12 months difference between A6300 and KP so we don't expect to see a huge technology difference between these two cameras but it would still give an advantage to younger KP, especially in sensor tech.
Despite some fundamental differences of these two body types, Mirrorless cameras are becoming serious alternatives to DSLR cameras thanks to their size/weight advantages and recent improvements in their focus speeds , which makes this comparison even more interesting.
Here is a brief look at the main features of the Sony A6300 and Pentax KP before getting into our more detailed comparison.
Let's read on in the following sections in order to better understand in detail how the Sony A6300 and Pentax KP compare and hopefully end up with enough arguments to decide which one is better for you.
