I got this camera for video and here are my pros and cons.
Pros:
1. Amazing image quality, it seriously does downscale from 6K to 4K, very sharp and detailed. Almost too much for my 1440p screen. The video quality matches very close to the FS7 when using SLOG 3. That's amazing for the price. it also shoots at the super 35mm focal length which is also found in many cinema cameras such as the FS7.
2. SLOG 3, this camera has an SLOG 3 profile which means you will get cinema camera type dynamic range, 13-14 stops. I usually record in my room for YouTube videos and all of my lights are clearly visible and not blown out.
3. 1080p mode has some of the least amount of rolling shutter I have ever seen. Its almost as if its not even there. Especially when recording in 120FPS. I did a really fast pan from right to left and I couldn't notice and rolling shutter even when slowed down. Its almost global shutter like.

Cons:
1. Rolling Shutter in 4K 24FPS is A LOT. When using 4K make sure to be in a somewhat controlled situation and not moving about too much.
2. Overheating is very present in my model in 4K, even when starting and stopping recording the overheating sign comes on. I was able to record 30 minutes of straight 4K and it shut off, then I had to wait for it too cool down.
3. This is my second a6300. The first one had a sensor problem where I was recording for 10 minutes and my whole screen turned into a purple haze color. This was also baked into the footage when I took it back to my computer.

I recommend getting this camera for video if you are doing YouTube videos or are in controlled situations. But get the GH4 if you are doing professional run and gun paid videography work. Since it is more reliable.
