Overall, the Sony Alpha a6600 receives mixed reviews. Some users appreciate the camera's autofocus and image quality, while others find it to be too similar to previous models and not worth the price. The camera's compatibility with lenses and software is also a point of contention. However, many users recommend pairing the a6600 with specific lenses and accessories for optimal performance. Ultimately, the decision to purchase the a6600 may depend on individual needs and preferences.

DPReview TV: Sony a6600 First Impressions

So with the very short time we've had to play with the a6600, these are my final thoughts. First off, I can't help but feel that this camera is what w...

Camera Gear to document a thru-hike: what weight is manageble in an ultralight set-up?

But, if you are absolutely set on a dedicated camera I would look at APSC rather than full-frame. The Sony A6600 with a wide zoom, a polarizing filter, a Rode microphone and mini tripod would be about **1.5lb in total**, so maybe 0.5lb less than the equivalent A7C set-up. The images can be outstanding if you know how to use the camera and how to process the images.

Great battery and IBIS, but comes up short elsewhere

The pros make for a great shooter, but at this price range there are other cameras with fewer of the cons listed below that make for better video cameras (like Panasonic's Lumix). I, for one, would not miss the EVF and would appreciate a larger LCD screen overall and flash. Currently using with 20mm...

A7C gets rid of the recording limit and I can re-use all my existing lenses/accessories. I don't love the ergonomics of the A7C body, but this solution wins on utility. **4) Sell JUST the M50 and get an A6600 for hiking and long form video**. This has some utilitarian benefits as both bodies share the same batteries and I can use my FF lenses on the A6600.

Why doesn't the camera have a standard MP4?

Have you learned nothing from customer complaints about a6400 video incompatible with social media and mobile device video editing? Why does this camera have only Sony video formats? Do you not understand the common need to quickly upload and share in social media? Social media and mobile devices ar...

Need advice on which DSLR I should buy.

I don’t think so. Before getting the Z50 I tried the Sony A7iii and the A6600.

Disappointment. I was waiting for Sony to make 4k 60fps. This camera is functionally the same as the a6500. The rest is marginally better. With this update, it makes no sense.

The 16-50mm kit lens is good not great, but overall really happy with the camera for $1000. I bought a Sony 50mm 1.8 that I primarily use, but have other lenses lined up that I'd like to purchase as well. If you can stretch your budget just a bit, you can get an a6600 for $200 off at $1200 right now.

Amazing camera, can overheat when streaming

Got this camera for a streaming setup and love the look and quality. Paired with cheaper sigma lenses, it's one of the most cost-efficient to quality images I could create before buying the semi-professional a7 series and above. Works well with Elgato cam link or direct USB connection with sony imag...

should i buy a6400 or a6600 and18-105 f4 or 18-135 kit?

A6600 has in body stabilization as I recall. The a6400 doesn't. If you can afford it, then, go a6600. I have no recommendations on the lenses you mention.
