Excellent summary with good voice, great clear speech and perfect length of vid. Well done for speaking up on the brilliant little kit lens, you put it to good use and made the point that people should heed, that super IQ is ok but convenience trumps often. Just get out and shoot is a better alternative to Chat Shops. Thank You for uploading and very best of luck with your new venture!

Great follow love this camera...I have the Sigma 16mm and the Zeiss 16-70mm and love them both.

Great stuff. Just went back to my A6300 as I think it is a great camera. Actually sold my A7R2 to go back to it and done film about it as I was starting to suffer from GAS. Done a comparison of the kit lens against top of the range Sony full frame setup at about 3x the price and quality isnt that different. However I would be keen to see what the A6700 will be like if they bring one out, more so if it has a lot of the features from the A7 range.

Good video!
I have had my a6500 for 18 months now, and I love it! IQ is sufficient for my landscape and nature photography and I really appreciate the small size. Weaknesses in my opinion are LCD screen which is below par and the selection wheel.

Thanks for all these comments. I just got mine. i need an advice about how to set up in advance my camera, for some shooting from a small plane (cessna) of a forrest above. I will have no times to try different set ups. I am afraid of shooting in 4 K with the rolling shutter mentioned so often. What would you do, you PROS ?

[isaiasvara]

Thanks a lot for your review. It was really useful for me as this camera is among my options. Keep the good work.

Thanks for your excellent review on Sony A6500. I have a question for you. Which one do you think we have to buy between A6500 and A6400 for videography? Thanks in advance!

[Justsome_Randomdude]

Love mine. It’s a tank too. Dropped mine on concrete from chest level and thought the camera and lens (sigma 30mm 1.4) was done for but no major damage at all except for the chips and crack on the screen protector and lens hood got beat up. The rolling shutter does get annoying at times tho and battery life sucks. Other than that, no complaints if you buy a few $10 batteries.

I have the A6500 for about 4 to 5 years. I like it very much, even though I have the A6400 as well. My setting is very interesting. I have two autofocus EOS to NEX speed boosters. Most of my manual lens are adapted to EOS mount, so I can benefit from one more stop of light, together with 0.71x. With clear image zoom and digital zoom. X2 an x4. So making the A6500 very super set up. The 5 stop of OSS, making using manual lens very convenient and cheap.

Excellent Video, Hands down the best one yet.

My issues with the alpha NEX/alpha include weather resistance and the body shape. I had the 5n, 7 6 and 6300. I moved away from the line mostly do to it being overly small and the other issues. I still don’t like the menu system although it has continued to improve.

You are one of my favorites in the YouTube Photography world👏👏👏👏

Well done video. I just ordered the 6500 as the price dropped. I have the 6300 which is a great camera also. The only negative I have is the battery life. I carry a spare all the time but that isn't a real problem for me. I am a still shooter and rarely do video.

I was deciding to get the g7 but my camera store had a really good deal on this a6500...and now im so confused. I shoot more photo on a daily basis, but when traveling I do want to get a lot of cinematic footage. My main cons about the a6500 is the UI/UX, lens selection, LCD screen (also it doesn't flip out), and the color. What I love is the autofocus, bigger sensor, and 120 fps. which do you recommend?

[smalltalk.productions]

thank you for the effort and the sharing. i wish i liked the ergos, the menu and the sony color. still not a fan. that said, i am an appreciative subscriber. thumbs up.

I got the a6500 and I like it so far. One question I have is when shooting landscapes will the built in (vibration) stability control interfere with the picture? On my Nikon I shut the VR off on the lens. Thanks in advance!
