Sony a6600 review: Amazing autofocus, acceptable ergonomics
The a6600 is a capable camera with industry-leading autofocus, excellent battery life, and useful in-body stabilization, but it falls short of a top award due to an aging sensor, uninspiring ergonomics, and stiff competition.

The a6600 is a worthy flagship that impresses with its speed, performance, and advanced autofocus tracking, making it an excellent, albeit expensive, choice for those wanting the best of Sony's APS-C line.

Sony a6600 Review
An excellent performer with class-leading autofocus and strong battery life, though it misses out on an Editors' Choice award because it lacks sufficient improvements in other areas.
Amateur Photographer
Sony Alpha A6600 review
While the camera features outstanding autofocus, great battery life, and image quality, its usability is marred by a dated, flawed body design and substandard control layout.
