Definitely a good pick, and an EXCELLENT first mirrorless camera! I was thinking about getting that one (since it has an amazing sensor on a tiny body), but when I bought I opted for the NEX-7 (similar to the a6000 series) due to a few extra features, such as a built in flash.
My next camera will be a full frame, so I'm saving up to dish out a couple thousand dollars on a good one. :)
Depends on your usage! I wanted the flash and the viewfinder, even though I don't find myself using them too often -- it's piece of mind knowing I have the option. The viewfinder is quite nice to be able to take sunny shots, which the camera can actually handle quite well! If you go back through a bunch of my photos, you'll see many have the sun directly in them.

Is built in flash important? theres many cameras that don't have it, I wonder if that matters
