Sony Alpha A6500

Mighty Mouse

The camera is a powerhouse, clear images through iso 6400 and features galore. But the user guide needs work, it offers only basic information without detailing the ins and outs of the features and options.

Fantastic small camera!

Overall, this is a great camera body. It's my fourth Sony APS-C Mirrorless body (NEX-5N, NEX-6, A6000, A6500) and I'm really enjoying it. The body is very solid, and the performance is excellent. It's very fast, and I was able to configure it to do what I needed more easily than the previous models.

Sony A6500 review

The A6500 is Sony's latest flagship APS-C E-mount compact system camera and is essentially an enhanced version of the A6300 that provides a number of performance and handling upgrades for those with deeper pockets.

Sony A6500 review

The A6500 is one of the best compact system cameras around, and sits at the very top of the APS-C tree. Capable of producing superb images straight out of the camera, its raft of high-speed features make it a particularly good match for anyone who likes to shoot fast-moving action subjects, be it wildlife or your pet dog. That said, Sony sadly still hasn’t quite reached perfection. Yes, we’ve finally got a touchscreen, but you can only use it for certain things. The A6500 is also pretty expensive, and if you tend to shoot non-moving fare like landscapes, portraits and macro, you might be better suited to the A6300. In that sense, the two cameras mirror the Fujifilm X-T2 and X-T20, which are their main rivals. Which you go for depends a lot on your preferences for a camera's controls and feel, as Sony and Fujifilm differ greatly here - but we reckon the X-T2 just edges it, thanks to its better frame rate and design. Buy the Sony A6500 here from Wex photographic

Sony A6500

by Mike Tomkins | Posted: 06/07/2017 When Sony first told us of the A6500 late last year, we must admit we felt a mixture of surprise and bewilderment. Following very closely in the footsteps of the A6300, the Sony A6500 was in many respects extremely similar to that camera -- much more so than we'd...

This great little camera is great for stealthy performance

This great little camera is great for stealthy performance. But when I want strap on some accessories this Smallrig cage does the trick just fine.

Punches above its weight

I've owned Canon DSLR's (my fallback workhorse), I've also owned an NEX5-N and an A6000, the previous Sony's although good always left me wanting to return to my Canon DSLR but the A6500 is a different beast. An amazing camera which can easily compare to much more expensive equipment.

The camera is really very good! Just I'm disappointed with the paint of the dial... I I used it just three times and the paint (white) of the dial start going out!

Really good and affordable camera

It's a great camera for a beginner or advanced photographer especially with the Sigma 16mm 1.4f lens it's incredible!
