Sony Alpha a6600 Mirrorless Digital Camera (Body Only)

Wide AF area, super-fast AF speed and steady subject tracking

Densely distributed focus points cover around 84% of the image area, and the Fast Hybrid AF system combines the best of phase-detection AF and contrast-detection AF to achieve a world-leading 0.02-s(2) acquisition speed. When subjects are in motion, AF points densely positioned around the subject are activated for accurate tracking.

Fast continuous shooting with AF/AE at up to 11fps

Shoot at up to 11 fps(3) with minimal display lag, and 8 fps(3) with live view, in bursts of up to 1164 shots in JPEG (Standard) at one time. With your settings clearly previewed in the electronic viewfinder, and the virtually real-time display, it will elevate your action shooting to a whole new level.

How optical image stabilisation works

The 5-axis in-body optical image stabilisation mechanism used on Sony's acclaimed full-frame cameras has been adapted as the stabilization unit for the APS-C sensor on the α6600. Relying on a highly accurate gyro sensor, it detects and compensates for camera shake along five different axes, including angular (pitch and yaw), horizontal, vertical and rotational, for stabilisation equivalent to a 5-step(9) faster shutter setting.

High image quality by design

Exmor™ APS-C CMOS sensor and latest-generation BIONZ X™ image processor

The 24.2-megapixel10 APS-C image sensor is optimized for highly efficient light collection, a wide sensitivity range and low-noise performance even at high ISO settings. In conjunction with the latest-generation BIONZ X image processing engine, it delivers superb image clarity and outstanding textural reproduction.

Low-noise performance for high ISO sensitivity

Across a wide sensitivity range of ISO 100–32000 (expanded to ISO 50–102400), the α6600 delivers excellent low-noise performance for high-quality images even in dimly lit settings.

Improved colour reproduction

Algorithms inherited from Sony's highly regarded full-frame cameras are responsible for the α6600's faithful colour reproduction. Depiction of human skin tones has been significantly improved, as have the vibrant colours of flowers. Jaggies and false colours are also suppressed. 

Versatile movie-making capabilities

Full-pixel readout with no pixel binning enables high-resolution 4K movie recording(1), while a new HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) picture profile supports instant HDR delivery. Sophisticated image stabilization completes the picture. 

Interval Shooting to create time-lapse movies

The camera's capabilities include built-in Interval Shooting(11), for time-lapse videos with a selectable shot interval of 1–60 seconds. Resulting images can be combined in high resolution on a PC, and viewed with a simple variable-speed preview function on the camera.

Tell your stories in your own way

The α6600 is designed for powerful film-making, so pros and enthusiasts alike can share their stories with the world. The 180°-tiltable display makes self-framing easy for vlogging or challenging shooting angles. Professional audio is also covered with an external mic jack and headphone jack for monitoring. And the improved grip ensures rock-solid, comfortable shooting for hours at a time.     

Notes:

(1) 3840 x 2160 pixels. A Class 10 or higher SDHC/SDXC card is required for XAVC S format movie recording. UHS-I (U3) SDHC/SDXC card is required for 100 Mbps. Connect this product to an HDR (HLG) compatible Sony TV via a USB cable when displaying HDR (HLG) movies.

(2) Based on Sony research, CIPA-guideline-compliant internal measurement with an E 18–135-mm F3.5–5.6 OSS lens mounted, Pre-AF off and viewfinder in use.

(3 )Up to 11 fps in continuous “Hi+” mode and up to 8 fps in continuous “Hi” mode. Maximum fps will depend on camera settings.

(4) With "Hi+" continuous shooting mode. Sony internal measurement.

(5) Maximum fps will depend on camera settings. Some distortion may occur with fast-moving subjects or if the camera is moved sideways rapidly while shooting.

(6) AI (artificial intelligence) including machine learning technology is used.

7) Still images only. Does not work with all types of animal. Tracking and right/left eye selection are not available.

(8) The selected eye cannot be toggled while the shutter button is half-pressed. Touch Tracking should be selected in advance for touch operation.

(9) Based on CIPA standard. Pitch/yaw shake only. With Sonnar T* FE 55 mm F1.8 ZA lens mounted. Long-Exposure Noise Reduction off.
