Sony Alpha 6600 APS-C Mirrorless Camera with Sony 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 Zoom Lens ( Fast 0.02s Autofocus, 5-axis in-body optical image stabilisation, 4K HLG, Flip Screen for Vlogging )

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.

The Sony a6600 is the company's top-of-the-line APS-C mirrorless camera, with 24MP of resolution and 4K video capture. It looks a lot like Sony's other a6000-series models at first glance, but this one has the biggest battery and the best build quality of the bunch, even if the images it produces are broadly comparable to the less expensive options. The a6600 further differentiates itself by offering in-body image stabilization, which is still a rarity among APS-C cameras. This should help with stills shooting in low light, to be sure, but also combines with excellent autofocus tracking to make it the best crop-sensor video shooter Sony currently sells. Despite its refinements, we still think the a6600 could benefit from some ergonomic updates to make it an easier camera to take control over. Key features: - 24MP APS-C CMOS sensor - Advanced, capable subject-tracking autofocus - In-body image stabilization - 2.36M dot OLED electronic viewfinder - 0.9M dot tilting touchscreen - Wi-Fi for image transfer, and NFC - 4K video capture with log profiles - USB charging - 810-shot battery life (per CIPA)

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.

This little camera punches above its weight. It is light and easy to use, and the Image quality is superb. Since I purchased it, my Hasselblad has been left in the cupboard, as it is too heavy.

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.

What a beast of a camera! I bought this with a Sigma 18-35mm and the quality is amazing. I mainly use it for videography.

Pricey, but great small camera with super images

Senza che entro nel merito avevo preso questo prodotto pero poi non è andata a buon fine. Pero ugualmente gli faccio una buona recensione per via di una che sono riuscita a usare grazie a una conoscenza. Ottima camera veramente molto bella e anche fa delle bellissime foto e video.

Nach einigen Jahren, in denen wir ausschließlich mit iPhone-Kameras bewaffnet waren, haben wir uns im Sommer letzten Jahres entschieden, den Markt der spiegellosen Systemkameras genauer zu erkunden. Relativ schnell stießen wir auf Sonys APS-C Modelle und nach weiterer Recherche fiel unsere Wahl auf die Sony Alpha 6600. Die Kamera kam mit dem 18-135mm Kit-Objektiv, das bei guten Lichtverhältnissen durchaus ansprechende Ergebnisse abliefert. Nachdem man jahrelang von der Automatik einer Smartphone-Kamera verwöhnt wurde, benötigt man möglicherweise etwas Zeit, um sich mit den relevanten Einstellungen der Kamera vertraut zu machen. Leider gestaltet sich das Menü nicht gerade benutzerfreundlich und anfangs kann einen die Vielzahl der Menüpunkte schon etwas überwältigen. Zudem sind einige Begriffe für Laien nicht immer eindeutig. Hier sind jedoch hilfreiche YouTuber wie Stefan Klapszus oder Michael Leidel von „AmazingNature Alpha“ eine große Unterstützung. Hat man sich erst einmal mit den Kameraeinstellungen angefreundet, das Menü durchschaut und die frei belegbaren Tasten nach eigenen Bedürfnissen angepasst, macht das Fotografieren mit dieser Kamera richtig Spaß. Nach kurzer Zeit legten wir uns zusätzlich ein 70-350mm Objektiv von Sony zu und ab da gab es kein Halten mehr. Meine Partnerin und ich wechselten uns ständig ab, bis ich mich entschloss, mir eine eigene Kamera zuzulegen. :D Die Sony A6600 ist eine hervorragende Kamera, die nicht nur für Einsteiger interessant ist. Sie ist leicht, kompakt und bietet ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Der APS-C-bedingte Crop-Faktor bringt einen 1,5-fach näher ans Motiv, was besonders in der Wildlife- und Tierfotografie von Vorteil ist. Als negativ empfinde ich, dass die Kamera über Micro-USB lädt. Das ist einfach nicht zeitgemäß und dauert ewig. Kauft euch unbedingt ein externes Ladegerät dazu. Würde ich sie noch einmal kaufen? Nein. Der nächste logische Schritt wäre der Kauf einer A6700, die eine merklich bessere Motiverkennung bietet, oder wie in meinem Fall eine A7C II, die neben der besseren Motiverkennung noch einen Vollformatsensor hat.

Cool.

Estuve dudando entre la a6600 y la a6400. Me decidí por la a6600 por que la autonomía es muy importante para mi, la necesito para astrofotografía, panorámicas HDR, Time-lapse. Me dejaron probar la a6400 y la batería volaba, aunque cumple con las 400 fotos. La a6600 pasa de las 800 de forma holgada, y la he usado con temperaturas de -5 a -8, la autonomía no se bio mermada. El estabilizador funciona de lujo y permite bajar unos 3 pasos o 3,5 sin que la toma salga trepidada. Las fotos adjuntas son imágenes de una sola foto con iso 800 y 20s de esposicion, tomadas con un sigma 16mm f1.4, objetivo más que recomendable para esta cámara. Recomiendo la compra al 100%, La iso funciona realmente bien, aunque no penséis que es como una A7 III... Tienes botones para asignar las funciones que desees, muuuuchos botones configurable. El grip es muy cómodo en mano y muy seguro. Los colores, para mi gusto, están muy bien, buena saturación y homogeneidad. En edición, las sombras las puedes levantar a lo bestia sin que aparezca demasiado ruido y recupera bien las altas luces, aunque en estas flojea un poco más. Las funciones de bracketing Dan muy buenos resultados y son muy intuitivas, he probado 5 fotos con 1 paso de diferencia y va de lujo, aunque con 3 fotos con 2 pasos de diferencia funciona espectacular y no comes tanta memoria. Lo dicho, recomendable al 100%

Un excellent boîtier pour faire d'excellente photos. Léger, compact, maniable, intuitif, excellente qualité photo, plein de paramètres possibles. Avec des guides et de la pratique, il est excellent et pourrait même suffire à un professionnel expérimenté. L'objectif 18-135mm est polyvalent, stabilisé, et qualitatif, convient parfaitement à des très bonnes photo. Le seul inconvénient est qu'il peine lorsque l'on manque de lumière : - Vitesse d'obturation convenable à la main jusqu'à 1/80 (risque de flou en dessous). - ISO propre jusqu'à 3200 (6400 avec un léger bruit) Mais pour son prix, avec un 35mm ou 50mm (le FE 50 1.8) ou le sigma 18-50 2.8 c'est un excellent appareil en extérieur et conditions de lumières favorables ou contrôlées. Convient pour du professionnel débutant et comme 2e appareil.
