If you're thinking about using your Sony a6000 series camera as a webcam, here's a quick comparison of the Logitech c920 vs Sony a6100. The a6400 and a6600 have the same output video quality so those apply here too.

You'll also see the difference between the standard lens that comes with the a6100 - the Sony 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 lens (SELP1650) and the Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary lens.

To connect the Sony a6100 you'll need an Elgato Camlink 4k or similar capture device.
