Sony has gone a long way towards addressing the issues many reviewers identified with the α6300. The deepening of the buffer memory will please sports shooters as well as bird and animal photographers as will the improvements to the stabilisation system.S...
Rapid AF, Wealth of features, Fast performance, Highquality viewfinder
Limited battery life, No incamera raw processing
With a wealth of features, advanced AF and decent burst shooting, not forgetting 4K video, the A6500 looks like it could be a great camera for a range of disciplines...
In body image stabilization that was previously only available in the Alpha 7 line, Fast and accurate AF system with especially great eye AF, Small, easy-to-handle camera body that improves on overheating issues found in previous models
LCD screen is often too slow to be useful, No headphone jack for monitoring sound during video recording
The Sony Alpha A6500 Mirrorless digital camera is good, just not great. The video features on this camera are good enough, but the missing headphone jack and unresponsive LCD screen makes this camera obsolete for any serious filmmaker. The in body image s...
In-body stabilisation (at last!), Highly sophisticated AF system, Great buffer depth in burst mode
Exterior controls could be better, 8fps now rather average, Awkward handling with big lenses
The A6500 is an oddity. It's a street-style camera with sports-camera performance and high-end 4K video capabilities, and it just feels the wrong shape for the things it's designed to do well. Worse still, it's been overtaken by recent rivals, and it's st...

Abstract: The Sony A6500 is a mid-range, prosumer mirrorless camera. It follows an established line of products that go back to the NEX-6 model when Sony separated the Alpha branding for A-mount SLT cameras from its E-mount mirrorless cameras. The A6500's two prede...
Fast and accurate AF system, 5axis image stabilizer, improved build quality, highly customizable, excellent continuous shooting, great still and video quality
Sony's a6500 is an incredibly versatile, impeccably designed camera. Price-wise, it sits in a kind of gray zone. It's cheaper than flagship cameras like Fuji's X-T2, the Panasonic GH5 and Olympus' E-M1 Mark II while offering a very competitive feature set...
