Sony Alpha ILCE-6600 24.2 MP Mirrorless Digital SLR Camera Body only (APS-C Sensor, Fastest Auto Focus, Real-time Eye AF, Real-time Tracking, 4K Vlogging Camera, Tiltable LCD), Black

A full-fledged toolkit for your imagination

The α6600 packs in the features, to deliver what you need for just about any situation you encounter – fast AF, steady image stabilisation and stunning image quality, a high-capacity battery and serious 4K HDR (HLG) movie shooting.

Reliable and persistent AF

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-sec. 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 11fps with minimal display lag, and 8fps with live view, in bursts of up to 116 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.

Silent continuous shooting won't disturb the peace

When the situation calls for absolute quiet, silent shooting with no shutter noise is possible at up to 8fps, even in AF-C mode. Used with Real-time Eye AF or with Real-time Tracking it dramatically expands your range of shooting options.

Initiate tracking in an instant

Initiate Real-time Tracking by half-pressing the shutter, or simply select the subject by touch, to start tracking. You can also assign Tracking On to a custom key, and press it to start tracking.

Real-time Eye AF for human

Even when your portrait subject is on the move, Real-time Eye AF provides continuous, stable eye detection and tracking to keep your scene in focus. It also works when the subject's face is partially hidden, backlit, or facing downwards.

Real-time Eye AF for animal

The same eye-detection algorithms that make great portraits of people have been adapted to animals as well, to help you get beautiful pet portraits and wildlife shots.

Right/left eye AF selection by touch

Not only can you prioritise the subject's left or right eye in settings, you can even do it with a simple touch to the camera's monitor screen.

Smooth focus transition

Depending on the condition of the subject you're tracking, the focus area will automatically and seamlessly switch between the subject's face and eyes.

Real-time Tracking activation with Touch Tracking

With the Touch Tracking function you can simply touch the monitor to initiate Real-time Tracking for either stills or movies.

Pitch and yaw control

Compensate for angular shake, also known as pitch and yaw shake, especially evident when shooting at longer focal lengths.

Horizontal and vertical axes

Compensate for camera shake in the horizontal and vertical directions, most apparent at high magnifications such as macro shooting.

Roll compensation

Compensate for roll, or rotational shake, most obvious in hand-held, long-duration movie shooting.

High image quality by design

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

The 24.2-megapixel APS-C image sensor is optimised 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 our 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, while a new HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) picture profile supports instant HDR delivery. Sophisticated image stabilisation completes the picture.

Keep the focus on your subject

Working together, the camera's Fast Hybrid AF system, Real-time Tracking and Real-time Eye AF maintain steady and dependable focus on your subject, so you can enjoy the more creative aspects of movie-making.

Interval Shooting to create time-lapse movies

The camera's capabilities include built-in Interval Shooting, 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, and comfortable, shooting for hours at a time.
