With the Sony 16-55mm f2.8 telephoto lens this camera is super sharp. I wouldn't bother upgrading to a A7, unless I wanted to print images larger than A3. As a photography camera the a6600 is a fantastic camera. It is light weight, reasonably compact while still being big enough for you get hold comfortably. The battery life is good, and the autofocus is super fast, and subject tracking works a treat. The a6600 with the Sony 16-55mm f2.8 lens will not disappoint ammeter or even intermediate photographers.There are a number of negatives though, mostly around 4K video recording. Eye detection and tracking does not work while in 4K mode, which is super disappointing. Also you only get 8-bit 4:2:0 colour internal recording, or 8-bit 4:2:2 on an external recorder which is a real downer considering the competition is all going with 10-bit colour now.Apart from this autofocus is excellent, HLG video is easy to use, but I still prefer S-Log2 as I colour grade my video footage in Adobe Premiere Pro. My wife loves the Wifi App for iSO, it allows her to take a photo with the camera and then send it straight to her phone for sharing.However, Wifi remote is disabled if PC remote is enabled, and it is just annoying to have to go into the setting and change it. Which I have to do, if I'm going to use the camera with the Ronin SC gimbal.

I've used this camera out in the field for video production. Only just learning it's full capacity but love it.The battery life is amazing and the unlimited record (Depends on battery and card space) is a life saver.Great camera.

I purchased the Sony A6600 for a number of reasons, I already own a Sony A6000 which I have had since the release over 5 years ago, I was tempted to purchase the A6400 as it does have the same simply unbeatable auto focus but I also wanted the Image Stabilisation for my manual lenses and the larger capacity battery.The picture quality and dynamic range on this camera have exceeded all of my expectations but without a doubt the its the autofocus system that really shines both for people and wildlife, I was astonished at how quickly the A6600 acquired focus both with native and adapted lenses.The ISO for low light has also been improved to an extent that it was comparable if not better than my full frame Canon 5Ds.As most of you will know if you are looking at the Sony range of camera the touch screen capabilities are far and few between or non-existent to be honest.The IBIS is ok but not a touch on Panasonic and Olympus.Battery life was very impressive, I was able to use the same battery for nearly two days and took well over 1200 shots, even though the battery is rated at 720 and 810 per charge.Grip - The ergonomics have also improved due to the larger grip which accomodates the new battery.Summary - If you are looking for a camera with a built in flash this will not be the camera for you, If you are looking for a range finder style body with leading autofocus and excellent image quality I don't think you can go wrong with this camera - Would i have upgraded if I had owned the Sony A6400 the answer would be a clear NO but if I owned any of the other A6000 line of cameras it would be a definate YES.

So, the A6600, the latest in the (now) long-lineup of Sony Mirrorless APS-C sensor cameras. Featuring a 2019 model processor and all of the upgrades that Sony has made over the last couple of years since the release of the A6500, this camera is a true powerhouse.Unfortunately for this device however, I don't see the point of its existence. The A6400 was released back in February of this year (2019) and now we have the A6600 in November, only 9 months later.This camera is so close to the A6400 in raw specs. that I simply cannot see anything conclusive that warrants the over £600 price hike (A6400 kit with same lens is £1159 here on Amazon). You get an ever so slight improvement in extended ISO (50, instead of 100 on the A6400), you get in-built body stabilisation (like you did on the A6500 from 2016), you lose the in-built flash in exchange for a hot-shoe mount, meaning you'll have to fork out for a flash speedlight on top, you get access to the newest "Z" type batteries, meaning better battery life and finally you get a headphone socket and a slightly larger grip.This particular model is an incremental upgrade to the A6400, now making it the closest A6XXX series camera there is in regards to the A7 series of cameras.The price of the A6600 Kit is only £100 or so less than an A7iIi Kit, which is a better camera in nearly every single regard. The A6600 does have continuous Eye-AF in video, which the A7iii does not, but other than that, I'd say that the A7iii out-performs the A6600 everywhere else.If you are going to put close to £2000 into a Sony camera, seeing as this is set at £1780 here on Amazon and the A7iii Kit (different lens however) is set at £1880, I would just save up the extra £100 or so and get the A7iii.You will be going from APS-C crop sensor to full-frame, but not only can you continue to use your crop lenses on the A7iii, you also now have full access to the amazing line-up of Sony-own and 3rd party FE lenses.If this camera was much closer to the A6400 in price, say, if it was £1300 or £1400 I could

This is an excellent camera and lens kit, I'm really impressed. The viewfinder is really bright and easy to use, it is as bright as the Alpha 7 (I'm very much old school and do use the viewfinder, although I appreciate that some prefer the big screen!)The grip is bulkier than the Alpha 6100, as the battery is bigger, and it gives a very professional feel, exactly like the old Minolta Dynax 9 (which was Minolta's top of the range film camera prior to being bought out by Sony). The grip is super easy to hold and the whole camera is perfectly balanced whilst you are using the grip in one hand, in fact it has a better grip than the Alpha 7. The build is extremely robust and being made of metal alloy it means that the camera is useable in very hot or cold conditions, so perfect for the traveller to exotic places.The auto-focus is extremely fast, even in very low light conditions. I took a photo of my daughter in a dark hallway where I couldn't even see her face properly and the resulting photo looked like daylight - very natural light, just like the sun had been turned on! Very impressive stuff! So even though there is no built-in flash (although there is a hotshoe for an external flash) this camera does not really need one as the sensor is really amazing.At first glance the zoom lens looked unpromising as it is very plasticky and did not feel premium. I duly took photos of the same items using this zoom lens and some old fixed lenses to compare (I used a Minolta 50mm F1.7, a Tamron 90mm F2.8 and a Minolta 24mm F2.8). The auto-focus on the zoom lens was very fast and there was no discernible difference between the different lenses. On the zoom lens the corners of the pictures were slightly less sharp when compared to those taken with the fixed lenses and the colours were not as rich and vivid, but this is expected and very normal and the results were completely acceptable. The zoom lens is of a very good quality and the range of 18-135mm (equivalent to a 27-202.5mm in a full frame camera) is large enough to

♦ Introduction ♦Being an owner of the A6000, A6400 and having the opportunity to use my friends A6500, it has been really nice to see the changes and upgrades Sony have made over the years and with the A6600, Sony have truly outdone themselves.The A6600 is a compact interchangeable lens camera which features a whole variety of features, such as a large 24.2MP APS-C sized sensor, 5-axis in-body stabilisation, 4K HDR compatibility, Up to 120fps(100fps* PAL) 1080p video recording, a 180° flip-up screen, an incredible auto-focus system and a new improved battery typically used with their full-frame range, all in one compact body.Due to the specifications of this camera, it is more than ideal for photographers, videographers and vloggers.- A6600 Main Features:• 24.4 Megapixels.• 425 Phase detection AF points.• Real-time eye auto-focus for people and animals plus subject tracking.• Silent Shooting.• Touch screen for focus & shutter.• Battery upgrade (can take 720+ photos).• Headphone & Microphone jacks.For those debating which one is more suited: A6000, A6400 or A6500, here is a quick run-down:• A6000: This was released back in 2014 which makes it the oldest version in this range; whilst it lacks many features of the newest versions such as it doesn't have a flip-screen, IBIS or eye-tracking but it is still a decent enough camera and can typically be found for a fairly low price, so great for those who want to get into the interchangeable lens cameras without having to spend excessive amounts of money.• A6400: Released early 2019, the A6400 added a 180° flip-up screen which the A6000 & A6500 models do not have. The other benefits over the last two models mentioned is the incredible real-time eye auto-focus (including animal eye auto-focus with recent update).• A6500: This model was released in 2016, this was regarded as the flagship camera until the release of the A6600. It still boasts impressive auto-focus, continuous Eye-AF capabilities and IBIS (In Body Image Stabilisation) which greatly reduces handshake.• A6600:

Those looking for a top quality camera that want to stay under £2000 really ought to consider this model but it still has some areas that could be improved.Lets start with the changes, you’ll be forgiven if you are a tad confused with the Sony line up and what is newer etc. For example I also have the a6400 which is newer and better than the a6500.This model addresses and resolves one of the biggest floors with the previous older versions, battery life. It is now more than double so you should easily be able to go all day on one battery. This in turn has meant that the camera grip is larger and that definitely is better. The weight gain is slight and not really noticeable in fact, I think the added bulk makes this camera feel more solid and robust.This camera is deigned for those that are taking both photography and videography seriously and doing a stellar job in both. The auto focus in both modes is insanely fast and accurate and the new eye tracing is incredible.Tracking my dogs eye form 50ft as she ran towards me and as i was continuously shooting I was able to get 98% in perfect focus out of 106. The performance in low light is also amazing easily producing great pictures up to 12800 or higher and with the new built in stabilisation it is far easier to get sharp focused images even in very low light.Video in my opinion is the real beneficiary to the new in body stabilisation and I found that I saw a huge difference to my a6400 which really was shaky and needed a tripod in most occasions. Now with the a6600 you can easily walk, pan, zoom and still get great imagery.I love the 18-135mm lens it really is a go everywhere glass and will suit most people in most situations, I would advise to get something a little wider, maybe a prime 12-16mm. Remember that as this is not a full frame the 18mm is really 27mm and the 135mm is actually over 200.The tilting screen is great but remember if you are planning to use the hot shoe mount then anything attached will block the screen. The other great feature is size. To get s

This is a weighty offering from Sony, sitting at the top of the A6000 range and rightly so. It has a new style battery, which offers better capacity, at the expense of some additional weight as well as the obvious incompatibility with the battery used in the rest of the range. In camera charging seems to be Sony’s norm, doable but a bit of a pain. This camera also has no pop-up, integrated flash, so you will need to make use of the hot shoe in situations where the flash is needed, albeit this camera copes extremely well in low light conditions.Built in body-stabilisation makes a real difference to shots and is particularly noticeable at maximum telephoto when even shots of the moon, handheld are in sharp focus - most of the time. I could even zoom in on a distant floral arrangement and found a crisp image produced.The auto focus tracking of eyes for animals and humans makes a marked difference to many shots, with the tracking taking care of moving objects so that you can just concentrate on framing your shot. It sometimes misses the mark, but not often and, where time permits, there is always the DMF option for final tweaking.The zoom lens included with the camera offers a good starting position for making the most of the camera’s capabilities and the digital zoom extends the range, albeit this is at the expense of quality of shot. It is good to find the lens hood, as well as rear lens and camera body caps, all included in the pack. The only omission, given the lens is boxed separately, is a pouch for the lens.I have moved through Sony’s NEX range and then various models from the A6000 range; even so, the menu on this camera is vast and, when new, will be a complex thing to comprehend. Take it slowly and start by just scrolling though; most starting things are pre-set to on, but you may wish to switch on the DMF option for that final tweaking of focus when subject and time permit.Currently, the box contains a minuscule manual that disappointingly only has a few pages of information, but repeated in many languages
