Alex Uzan Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 4k30, 8bit, one dual slot, no joystick. So disapointing. Even one year later, they can't keep up with the X-T3. At least the 16-55 seems great. But we still don't know the price, and if it IS. Snowbro 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedazin Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I think the a6600 is just the answer to all youtube vloggers that reviewed the a6400 and stated that only IBIS is missing. The sequence of introduction reminds me of the sequence a6300 and a6500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf33d Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 This is so disappointing from Sony. With that lens and upgrades the A6600 with a proper 10 bit codec and 4K60p would have been great. Now it’s a joke. I was surprised they would release the new tech in the APSC first before the A7S. Now it makes sense, they just want their A7S line to be top for video. Still unacceptable, they give the sensor tech to Fuji a year ago and don’t even use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Bowgett Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Okay, seriously, how is it that in the week when Sony and Canon are releasing new mirrorless APS-C mirrorless bodies, Canon is the one who (24p shenanigans aside) is offering more meaningful upgrades over its predecessor, and also has a more reasonable price point?

MeanRevert Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Marketwise though, I thought I saw a graph a little while back that Sony was the only one selling a lot of cameras.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even one year later, they can't keep up with the X-T3. Add to the shortcomings: same sensor, same terrible rolling shutter, probably same poor pixel binned 120fps quality as well and Sony's lovely "colour" If A6600 is a flagship they should be embarrassed. Quote At least the 16-55 seems great. But we still don't know the price, and if it IS. 16-55 F2.8... Wow they finally got round to it. Shame it doesn't match the Samsung effort of 5 years ago though. That was F2.0-F2.8! Sony = new Canon. Kisaha, Juank and currensheldon 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salalah Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Big yikes. Can they finish the new video codec at least. Seems there is not going to be any big improvement without it. A7Siii probably still 6 months out uhhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazeballs Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Really shitty updates from Sony. Feels like they didnt want to put any effort and R&D money into it but they wanted to keep their piece of the pie buy introducing small incrimental upgrades.

frontfocus Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 It feels like Sony just gave up on the APS-C market. It seems even Canon is putting more effort into their Eos M cameras nowadays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems even Canon is putting more effort into their Eos M cameras nowadays. Given the frequency they release APSC cameras I don't think you can say they've given up on it. They've just stopped trying to innovate (or worse have hit a wall and can't innovate.) I saw people talking the a6600 up because it takes Z batteries and has a headphone jack. It feels like some have really set the bar low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

currensheldon Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 If the Sony 16-55mm f2.8 at least had stabilization, they would have sold one to every FS5 and FS7 owner out there - awesome lens less than 500-grams, but without stabilization, it becomes way less useful for those cameras. Would much rather use the 24-105mm f4 from Canon/Sigma with a speedbooster and also have a greater range + stabilization. Since I greatly dislike Sony's color and image, I'm happy to see them stumbling. Hopefully more money goes to Panasonic, Sigma, and Fuji, all three which seem to be at least trying to make innovative and updated products.

ND64 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I didn't see anywhere in the press release explaining why should anybody spend $1.5k for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
