    I chose the Sony A6600 after considering multiple other video options. I was between a camcorder(Sony AX100, Canon XA40 or XA 50 and mirrorless cameras. I ultimately chose the Sony A6600 because it had double the battery life of previous Sony A6000 series cameras and no time limit on video length with minimal/no problems with overheating with hours of use. I am using this to film animals and nature. I am very satisfied with my purchase. Be very aware that there is a fairly high learning curve with a DSLR/Mirrorless type camera to record video compared to a camcorder. I have since added a Sony E PZ 18-105 f4.0 lens and a Sony Remote and that has really helped make filming easy!

    I would not have purchased this if not for the sony rep in the store but he was pretty good at his job. He not only showed me why I wanted it but how to use it. Everyone is racing about my pics and it's really a great camera. I'd recommend considering a second lens with a lower aperture to make it more useful but it does 100% of what I expected. It's easy to use, autofocus works perfectly and the pictures are awesome.

    Purchased to replace an older Nikon DSLR, love the form factor and the quality of pictures and videos have been great. I will say the menu is extensive and I'm just now starting to get a handle on all the options. Taking videos have exceeded expectations as I was expecting more rolling shutter based on other reviews. The auto focus has been awesome and the best feature of this camera. The only issue I have is using manual lenses and getting the focus right, an indictment of my skills, not the camera.

    Definitely the best of the A6000’s despite the cost. Battery life alone was worth it so it depends on what your needs are. I have used it for live streaming and/or photos ALMOST every single day for 60 days. The autofocus is spot on!! My favorite lens with it is the 35mm f1.8 fixed lens. Super fast. I recommend the remote control if you can. Clean hdmi out was also crucial to me. No overheating. If you use the dummy battery abs forget it on I think it cuts off in 12 hrs. Zero overheating issues. Of this had usb-C it’s be the best camera in it’s price point. Great build quality as well. A solid feeling cam. (Upgraded from canon M50)

    Without going full frame, this is the best option for mirrorless cameras, especially with the new battery and weather resistance. Sony's software definitely needs improvement though.

    It works as advertised. It is priced to be used by a professional. If you are looking at this for a paid job it should work very well for the advanced users. With proper glass (G Lense) or better this is a very capable shooter. This has been out a while and the price has not gone down a whole lot over the years if you can hold off until Sony comes up with the next best thing I would recommend doing that. This cameras 24mp sensor is just enough but more can be offered with larger sensors and the right software AI.
