I purchased my Sony a 6600 about four months ago. YouTube suggested your video. I want to thank you for doing it. It’s just as useful as it was four years ago when you made the video. And the excellent feature of having it timestamp to jump from one topic to the other and keep it as a reference for future use just a great saver.
Thank you for your video.

[youuuuuuuuuuutube]

I jumped to some specific sections just to get more knowledge, wow this is really reference material, Sony couldn't have done better themselves, amazing work!

[AdamWitt]

Dude. I'm not sure who in the right mind would "dislike" this video. You're thorough, yet to the point and very informative. This was a great video - lifesaving at that. Thanks for putting in the work, Mike!

[grahammutton]

Thank you Michael, I got my a6600 a few days ago and a lot of the mist has cleared. You have done a great job of demonstrating the functions and menus. I've just signed up for your A6600 Crash Course and I can't wait to dive into that. Many thanks and keep safe..

[matthewdodson]

OMG I've been looking for a video like this. Other people put so much junk in their a6600 videos - this is extremely thorough, organized, clear, and the inclusion of topic bookmarks is so great. This video is amazing, thank

[AustinPartyBand]

Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial. I just watched all 2 hours 19 minutes and 25 seconds, and I'm sure I will be watching it a few more times over the coming weeks.

[dcastro]

I haven't watched 10 mins of this but based on the length of your tutorial, no stupid intro/b-rolls, and the positive comments has already made me subscribe and also put your CC on my list. Thank you for making this available!

[steverees]

This is really great stuff. I really like how you can speak as someone who's clearly used the camera a lot, rather than just going through the motions from the user manual. I particularly like the menu deep dive! Thanks for a great job.

[lucyferito]

Thank you very much for this tutorial. Impressive amount of time you’ve put into educating people like me. I have nothing more than appreciation for guiding this beginner into the beauty of photography with this amazing Sony tool.

[jtwolfstories]

Thank you so much for making this video. I have watched about a hundred videos on Sony menu and yours is by far the most informative.

[eldhaww]

I have like 3 months since I bought my camera and I was so intimidated by it that I haven’t even used to have at least 1 decent pic! After this video I feel way more confident and confortable when using it! Thanks

[justsomeasiandude]

@Michael The Maven, you're still producing the best camera review on YouTube. Keep up the good work!!!

[bighenrywun]

Extremely well organized initial guide for Sony A6 series users, and also a good refresh guide for experienced users. Thank you for the work and useful information.

[kathyweigelhi-lophotovideo]

I’ve had Sony camera forever and there are still some settings on the menus I didn’t understand. Thanks for taking the time and cataloging. I was taking an underwater photo workshop and having issues where the image would not show prior to shooting. None of the experienced instructors could figure it out. Many thanks!

[chrisheldman]

Excellent video. Been shooting an A55 for 10+ years but I picked up a lot of valuable info here for my new A6600. Great job👍!

[pf]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! It is so appreciated! I've now been in quarantine for a month and this is the perfect time for such a tutorial. Thanks, again!

[PaulSter]

I'm guessing that I will watch and re-watch various segments of this awesome video for a few months at the minimum.

Thank you! This is fantastic.

Best, in-depth tutorial. Your presentation is a mark of a great educator!

[rohanj]

Amazing stuff. Thank you. Just got my 6600 in 2024. After selling my Canon DSLR I’ve had for years. Super useful video. And will be going through this again, and saving it for future reference. Thanks again 🙌

[KennethBDone]

This tutorial is the best welcome for my new 6600. Many thanks, Michael!
