Verdict
Pick the Sony A6000 if you prioritize a lighter, more compact body and faster continuous shooting for action or moving subjects. The Canon EOS 800D stays the better choice if you prefer the optical viewfinder and slightly newer technology of a DSLR, or if the small weight difference isn’t critical for your use. Both deliver nearly identical resolution and video specs at a similar price.
