A fantastic APSC camera
ILCE-6600 / ILCE-6600M 08 April 2020 by S4Ducati (USA)
I have owned many a6xxx models and this one is incredible. I've paired it with the new 16-55 f/2.8G and the image quality is on par with my a7iii and a GM lens. In fact, the autofocus is better IMO. For me it's a a6500 on steriods.

To fix the port the motherboard needs replacing after 6 days. Sent off to fixation in London. Could possibly be the last sony camera I buy. VERY UNHAPPY :(

ILCE-6600 / ILCE-6600M 27 March 2024 by Reggie34 (United Kingdom)
This is my first “serious” camera and for an amateur photographer it’s perfectly matches me current skill set. The best part I think is how light and portable it is. Also, I can get pretty pro-grade pictures after tweaking in-camera settings. One point though that I have struggled with is the focus settings which may be entirely due to me not fully grasping but the focus point jumps and down and has a very small focus area which can render an entire image not sharp as it has focused on a tiny part of the whole picture.

Better focus plus 'In Body Image Stabilisation'
ILCE-6600 / ILCE-6600M 20 June 2023 by Davec005 (United Kingdom)
Having previously owned an ILCE-(A)6300 for a few years I was reasonably familiar with the somewhat awkward menu system that has had a bit of a refresh on the A6600 but overall there isn't much of an improvement and the camera itself other than its main/key features which are the faster and more accurate auto focus, larger battery that seems to go on and on (....and on and on!) for ages compared to the smaller battery in the A6300. Also, because the battery is physically bigger, so is the grip which is much more comfortable in the hand. This newer camera also has the in body stabilisation which helps with both stills and video ....but is far from perfect and could be better! The auto focus can now be switched between human and animal eye focus which is good for animal photography which I rarely do but the option is now there for those that do. If there is a downside to this camera it would be the price compared to other makes with a similar spec but as I'm already invested in the system with a few Sony lenses plus a lot of third party alternatives, this camera is good for me plus it is a lot cheaper than a full frame Sony camera with lenses with similar specs.

Good camera but some firmware issues
ILCE-6600 / ILCE-6600M 15 October 2021 by RonLG (United Kingdom)
The camera produces very good results and is extremely light and small. However th esmall size does mean that the range of controls is more limited than on a full size DSLR and those controls are set closer together. The sensor is extremely good and noise levels are contained up to relatively high ISO's. A major issue is the poor algorithm that is used to select a combination of aperure and shutter speed in the P setting. That renders the P setting almost unusable and I have found that best results are obtained by using the Manual mode, setting the aperure and shiutter speed appropriate to the occasion and using Auto ISO to adjust the resulting image. Unfortunately this leads to two additional defects in the firmware. As on many DSLR's aperture is adjusted using the control on top of the camera and shutter speed by a rotary dial on the camera back. While the top control is very positive and easy to use once its position is learned the same canot be said for teh rotary control on the back of the camera. That control not only rotates but can also be depressed in 4 directions and it is far too easy to depress it while adjusting the shutter speed and to accidentally move, for example, from auto ISO to a fixed ISO value. To undo this accidental change can be time consuming. Such accidental errors could be so easily avoided if the firmware required any of the four "corners" of the dial to be held for, say half a second, before the rotary dial assumed its other function. The second firware defect is that, when the exposure settings are being changed in manual mode with Auto ISO the displayed ISO selected by the camera is replaced by "AUTO" instaed of changing as, say, the Shutter speed is changed. The new ISO only appears when the shutter is half pressed. Thi sis in stark contrast to my Canon 7D Mk2 where the apropriate ISO remains live and changes in response to user changes in Aperture or Shutter speed. Both these defects lead to loss of time in selecting appropriate settings which can be the difference between taking and missing a good photograph. Because of that I have reduced my rating to only 3 stars.

Bought the 6600 to replace an old 6000. As a professional who carried heavy camera bags for decades, I needed something small but high quality for a trip to Italy. The images are so very crisp! The big surprise for me was the low light performance. Shooting in a church in Florence at ISO 3200 gave me beautiful images with almost no noise and were wonderfully sharp when viewed at 100%. I use the Zeiss 16 - 70 f4 lens.

Amazing mirrorless Camera
Body + 18-135mm Zoom Lens 14 July 2021 by Chris1988 (United Kingdom)
Waited a while to get this camera for price wise, was surprised when the box turned up with how small it was and once out of the box how small the camera is in the hands. Holding it tho is really nice, fits in my hands perfectly and having the larger battery it lasts a long time shooting too. the image quality out of this camera is brilliant and the auto focus is so fast and eye AF is amazing on people and animals. Really well made, the menu system is a little confusing to someone who doesn't know anything about photography coming to this camera for a starter camera but once you get using it, you pick it up pretty quick.

ILCE-6600 / ILCE-6600M 18 February 2021 by Richie707 (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
The Sony A6600 is my first camera, a bold move I know as I could have purchased a cheaper camera. The continuous great reviews across platforms, the weight, build quality and AF are some of the many reasons I bought this model. There are a couple of designs I wish were different. The screen had multi tilt to the side. The flash was available as per previous models. As this is a new model, the megapixels could have been increased inline with other competitors such as Fuji. These certainly didn't stop my purchase, but would go along way to making the product more favourable. That being said, after all my extensive research across both DSLR and Mirrorless cameras, I still purchased the A6600 and certainly don't regret it. My only other comment is that I wish ther were more packages with different lenses available. I wanted this camera for wildlife photography and if there were other packages available with a telephoto lens, that would have been my pick.

The main reason I bought this camera was I first intended to buy G 16 55 F2.8 with no OSS. A5100 also had no IBIS so I decided to upgrade. The eye auto focus is amazing but can be hard for the camera to track for full body portrait shots, especially if the shots are taken vertically. The custom buttons can be customized and made the user an easier time the access certain functions instead of having the dive into menus and sub menus as in A5100.

This is the 9th E Mount APS-C Sony camera that I have used and it is, without doubt, the best of them. Is it perfect? No, it has some niggling flaws but none of them detract fully from the camera. Chief amongst these is the lack of a joystick which would be a really useful addition to the camera. Whilst the current methods for fixing the focal point work well (once you get used to them) a joystick is becoming the norm on cameras at this price point. Secondly, effective in camera processing is also something that one expects for a camera at this level. Thirdly, for those of us who shoot in B&W it would be nice to have other monochrome options (such as those offered by Fuji, Panasonic, Olympus). On the positive side, the focusing on this camera is class leading. The new 2.8 G master lens makes the most of that focussing capability. Add to this the image stabilisation and the weather sealing and it is clear that this line of E mount cameras has come of age and it is the first one that I would certainly recommend - I liked it enough to order a second body and so I am not certain that I can give it a stronger endorsement (despite the niggles)

ILCE-6600 / ILCE-6600M 04 October 2020 by Talk2bry (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
For the size of the sensor, the image quality is very good. The camera build is also very good. The features are as good as a top end camera. The handling isn’t bad, but takes a little time to get use to. The view find good, as is the image information. Cons The program menu is bit bit long winded and I’m still find it slow to change setting, although this will get better as I get use to the menu. They camera isn’t rain poof. Overall a good camera for it price Am I going to replace replace my Nikon D750 and D850 for the Sony’s cameras. I’m really not sure as it’s a lot of money to replace all the lenses on top of the camera. I purchased this camera as a try out the menu which I’m still a bit unsure about.

Great still image quality, very good even in low light, amazing auto-focus capabilities, great video capabilities. Very sturdy build. Needs a UHS-II type SD card slot or faster card type - The camera outperforms the card write speed. Still has really bad battery drain even when turned off - That's a problem from the original a6000 that still hasn't been fixed. 4/5 stars because Sony could easily fix these flaws and they should on their top of the line APS-C camera.

Body + 18-135mm Zoom Lens 20 August 2020 by SethC (Malaysia) Verified Purchaser Verified
Good if you have a lot of money. Otherwise, go Full-Frame A7III with that minor price difference. As a beginner to video production, I purchased it thinking that APSC is the same as full frame. However, that's a large misconception. On APSC, you can perhaps go 1600 ISO before video noise makes your footage undesirable to you. On a full-frame camera like A7III, perhaps 3200 ISO. On the latest A7SIII, even up to 16,000. Imagine that. 16,000 ISO. With that knowledge in mind, if you know you won't ever want to upgrade to full frame for that low-light video capability - then the A6600 is a good buy. APSC lenses like Sigma are really affordable and amazing. However. If you know you'd have the slightest voice inside you that low light video shooting is something that'll pull at your heart strings, invest in a full frame camera. The full frame lenses you start investing in will get you really far. Look at the A7SIII. That's 10-bit 4:2:2 4K 120FPS. That's a camera that allows you to go 16,000 ISO with good footage. If your budget doesn't allow you to get the A7SIII anytime soon, then if you're looking at the A6600 - with a bit of increase in budget, that'll get you the A7III which is a legendary workhorse for a consumer-friendly mirrorless camera.

ILCE-6600 / ILCE-6600M 14 August 2020 by Accessman (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
I bought this about two weeks ago to use for work and pleasure. In my day job visiting buildings I can take 200+ photographs and have used a compact camera in the past. This time I wanted a camera that would still allow me to do that with ease but also take good quality images when used for pleasure, this allows me to do that and its not too big.

"This a fabulous and versatile camera from Sony"/
Body Only 17 July 2020 by emm73 (Singapore) Verified Purchaser Verified
I am tru;y happy that I bought this camera after trying it out at M S Color/ It can be used with all kinds of lenses, full-frame or APS-C including manual focusing lenses. The EVF is good and lots of features and functions to please the most demanding photographer. It's a superb APS=C camera.
Most functional APS-C camera.
Body + 18-135mm Zoom Lens 14 July 2020 by VinnieSW6 (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
I’m very satisfied with the A6600, it’s the perfect companion for street & travel photography. The autofocus is best in class, so is the battery. The image quality is very high-end. It’s easy to use even for beginners. I wish that the body has two SD slots, or at least one but UHS-II and USB-C charging instead of micro-USB.

great bokeh but focusing not good as a webcam
Body Only 08 July 2020 by Eric Sim (Singapore) Verified Purchaser Verified
I bought the A6600 for live streaming but the focusing is not intelligent enough. I did a live streaming to 1000 people via Zoom webinar on 2 July. When I showed an item, I need to ensure my eyes are blocked from the camera before the camera can focus on the product.
A6600 - 1st Impressions

Having owned an NEX7 for 7 years, the A6600 is a real pleasure - the NEX7 has really matured, build quality is superb, simplified & modernised. 1st impressions are excellent,

Terrible Rolling Shutter!
ILCE-6600 / ILCE-6600M 11 June 2020 by caliskanuzay (USA)
I'm really sad that I bought this camera. Everything is great but 4K video is useless. Rolling shutter is so high even you move the camera little. A person who like to record videos in 4K shouldn't buy this camera. There are lots of better alternatives out there!!!

I have previously been rolling with the A6000. I was looking for something with all the features the A6600 presents. The longer shooting time for video and many more focal points was a selling point for me. 4k is defiantly a major bonus. Some features of apps are already built in so I don't have too down load. I will always love the fact of lens versatility.

Body + 18-135 mm Zoom Lens 17 April 2020 by Global Nomad (USA) Verified Purchaser Verified
Ever since I've owned and used this camera, and during this Covid-19 period I am shooting about every day, I have sensor issues. Not only do I get specs on my images but I also get dark thick lines that appear on images. They are not consistent. In other words they do not appear on every image. I've cleaned the sensor (every time I finish a shoot and view my images) as well as the kit lens that came with the camera. I've cleaned this camera so much, that I have run out of cleaning swabs and have had to order more. I'm going to take this issue to the distributor where I purchased this camera. I have owned a Sony full frame camera in the past, but this camera has a problem.

Hello, we're sorry for the negative experience. Unfortunately, sensor dust on a mirrorless camera is unavoidable. We recommend a rocket blower to periodically gently blow the dust out. As far as the dark thick lines, this could be LED lighting causing this phenomena. Sometimes turning off silent shutter can mitigate this. For further troubleshooting, please give us a call at 1-239-245-6360
A fantastic APSC camera
ILCE-6600 / ILCE-6600M 08 April 2020 by S4Ducati (USA)
I have owned many a6xxx models and this one is incredible. I've paired it with the new 16-55 f/2.8G and the image quality is on par with my a7iii and a GM lens. In fact, the autofocus is better IMO. For me it's a a6500 on steriods.
