August 2020 Style Name: ILCE6600B.CEC Pattern Name: ILCE6600B.CEC 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. 2 people found this helpful

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. 33 people found this helpful

Verified Purchase This is one of the best cameras I’ve ever super crisp focus and great colours Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 September 2022 Style Name: ILCE6600MB.CEC Pattern Name: ILCE6600MB.CEC 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. 6 people found this helpful

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. 11 people found this helpful

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) 5 people found this helpful

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 cover the vast majority of situations and in fact most people could quite happily use this camera and not need to change the lens at all. The lens can also focus on very close objects with ease. The 4K video is excellent, very clean and clear. The auto-focus is amazing and chases the moving object with no blurring at all even with sudden jerky movements. Really steady and hopefully an end to home videos that make you dizzy. This camera and lens kit is definitely worth the high price tag, as it is superb quality and easy to use. However, those with less deep pockets can also consider the cheaper Alpha 6100, which is a great little camera that is also very good quality.

January 2020 Style Name: ILCE6600B.CEC Pattern Name: ILCE6600B.CEC 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. 2 people found this helpful
