Sony a6600 Review
After years of steady development of its full-frame mirrorless system, Sony has set its sights on updates to its more compact and affordable APS-C line. It started things off with the a6400, and followed up with a model below it, the a6100 ($749.99, body only), and one above it, the a6600 ($1,399.99, body only), which is the subject of this review. The three models share the same image sensor and basic feature set, but the a6600 sets itself apart with in-body stabilization, a high-capacity battery, and an overall sturdier build. It's a strong camera, with class-leading autofocus performance, but falls a bit shy of being an Editors' Choice.
Sony's Flagship APS-C
Sony describes the a6600 as its flagship APS-C model. It has a fittingly high-quality build, packing internals in a magnesium alloy body with seals to protect from dust and splashes. The form factor hasn't changed much versus the earlier a6500, though the new model enjoys a better, deeper handgrip.
The a6600 measures 2....
Sony brings its class-leading autofocus tech and big Z battery to its a6600 APS-C camera, but we wish there were improvements in other areas too.
Real-Time Tracking focus system; Big battery; Improved handgrip; Integrated EVF; Stabilized image sensor; Dust and splash protection; 4K recording
Single, slower UHS-I card slot; No focus joystick or front dial; Drops in-camera flash
