The BEST Sony A6600 Tips and Tricks!

[@VIShots]

Finally a video that's not bashing this camera and providing useful tips for those that bought it and love it.

[@KobraToldYa]

Yup, this is exactly what I needed. Been putting off my next video because of the trail and errors of using this beast. Thanks again.

[@itdeejay7002]

Yooo Everyday Dad! Long-time-viewer, first time commenter/subscriber. I literally watched your reviews of all the Mirrorless cameras for 48 hours straight before finally deciding on the a6600 and the sweet Sigma 16 prime. I'm so ready to rock content creation right now. Thanks for the incredibly hard work you put into these reviews, they really help. Alright I'm gonna go to sleep now.

[@MagicianDerrickRose]

Just bought this 1 hour ago to complement my A7iii. Very excited to start using and creating content with this. Thanks for the tips.

[@kevin-lu]

Recently picked up the a6600 on a great deal I couldn't pass up! You pretty much hit all the points on what I've been doing to all my new cameras when I first get them. I do like the EOSHD Pro Color V4.0 settings quite a bit for picture profiles.

[@nermaldigital]

Only just bought one for my mini studio. Cant wait to get to learn a few tricks. The audio levels tip is a great shout. Good video

[@sweetbabysean]

Love your videos man! Freakin pro! I just got a a6600 but still love my a7s. But I think they just look so much different it’s crazy.

[@amqmedia]

Strong work on this video! I'd like to see a video on the A6600, specifically what happens to autofocus when switching to 120p. Thanks.

[@AteTreeWon]

Yes! A very welcome video since I just picked this camera up! :)

[@TheEverydayDad]

Nice! Hope it was able to help out 😁👍

[@Mperrymanstudios]

AteTreeWon how are you liking it so far?

[@VWLifeVW]

i want one so bad now! been rocking the a6000 for five years now and need more from my rig :)

[@tumbleweedfarm]

Don't forget about the Sony 18-105, f4. It's a power zoom lens so it's remote controllable zoom just like the 16-50. I have both lenses. 16-50 is great for motorcycle bag. 18-105 is great for paid work.

[@WorldTravelingCouple]

I have the A6600 and use it with the Zhiyun Crane M2 with 16-50mm lens. Great compact travel setup!

[@SBBLURAY1]

You can use clear image zoom with any lens but on the zoom ones you need to start record or go into video mode for it to show up.

[@TechTagged]

Very good camera...started using it for youtube channel..colors awesome

[@mosesfernandez50]

Very helpful

[@GrantSR]

Yup! That collapsible, pancake, power-zoom, kit lens is the first lens that I'm getting when I get my A6600. It's the only affordable Sony power-zoom. And it's just so darned convenient!

[@bloodypuddle.]

Would you do a full setup guide for the A6600 please? I have just brought one!

[@ClassicalTechnology]

Great tips!

[@TheEverydayDad]

Thanks!

[@beautyadvocate]

Great video! What kind of ND filter do you use with this camera to get the blurry background?

[@shammyh]

The A73/R3/A6400 can all do face autofocus in video, in 4K while connected via HDMI. You just have to disable internal recording and only record on the external device (e.g. Atomos). Gerald Undone did an entire video just about this.

[@levarirene]

Super vidéo

[@mariobernardo2504]

Thanks for the info, here's a question that does not relate to the camera, please tell me how to you set your lighting, dark background and sharp in front...much appreciated..

[@mr_red13]

Everydaydad ....I'm thinking of getting the a6400. Which lens would you recommend for shooting in low light for UA-cam (in my bedroom)?

[@user-lg9uy6gy9e]

What do you choose for the video, a6600 or canon xa50?

[@Cianabarbie]

I just bought this camera, and coming from a canon user, everything for it is so pricey 😔 Theres no many things to purchase just be able to get the right vlog setup its insane! I think I'll be returning this one...

[@chuckstaton]

Hey thanks for your videos! The IBIS on the A6600 can be...not great. What's your advice for getting a more stabilized image from walking around and filming with the A6600?

[@santiagodiaz-laguna4127]

Hey man, you probably already figured it out but. An external handle and using the strap properly will help a bunch

[@hylt0n]

a6600 lookin' niceee

[@TheEverydayDad]

Looking reeeeal nice 😁👍

[@Mperrymanstudios]

I love that cam, A7iii mini

[@f2lo2]

sony a6600 or fujifilm x-s10 or x-t4? both for stills and video. P.S. You are so cool guy!

[@markattardo]

Good tips G!
Sony should make an A6xxxCVF...basically take the best features and apsc sensor of the 6400 & 6600 and put it into an A74 style body. They'd need a flip screen because of the Centralized Viewfinder bump. Now that I'm daydreaming, what do they offer for crop sensor wildlife cameras? I'm assuming it's just crop mode on the full frame models. Hmm, I think I'm going "shopping"😂

[@markattardo]

Huh! They do have the α77 II and a68. interesting! Scratch that, they are A mounts.

[@TheEverydayDad]

Dang so close but so far.

[@therollinggreenroom6065]

Does the 4k 30 crop in like it does on the a6400?

[@shawnburgess9870]

how are you in shutter priority and movie mode at the same time without hitting the record button. It looks like your in movie mode with an S instead of the M

[@AccordingToShep]

Great job buddy!!! Sony does have amazing video functions!!!!!

[@TheEverydayDad]

If only they got better touch screen menus 👍

[@AccordingToShep]

The Everyday Dad agreed.... Canon has that all day!!!!!

[@podermanifiesto18]

How do you plug your iPad as a monitor?

[@TingILi]

What camera did you use for this video?

[@martinsyshack918]

When im in my custom mode (1 or 2) i just cant set the record button.. :( its ON but it still do photos

[@GrantSR]

My tip is to wait until the Sony FX30 comes out and people FINALLY start selling their used A6600s at a price I can afford. 😉

[@manikantaphotography]

Sony 6600 or A7iii Which the Better to Video

[@jokesonu999]

What would you guys recommend for the long run Sony a7rii or Sony a6400 for mainly photography

[@Princeton_James]

What are you photographing?

[@jokesonu999]

Erik mostly landscapes and portraits

[@OzzySafa]

I just wonder what they’re going to call the updated model of this in future.. any guesses ? A6900?

[@mirrorlessny]

if they keep same body design/sensor for next refresh then it can be like a6200 & a6700/a6900

[@YuriShevchouk]

Lol you were right

[@PaulFeinberg]

Good tips! Lots of truth here other than 30fps 🤣🤣🤣 j/k I am not a real filmmaker, so I will say not a huge difference between the two 😂

[@TheEverydayDad]

Ha! I put that in there hoping someone would mention it 🤣

[@siddhantkhanal4043]

Since A6600 is now priced $1200 ($300 more than A6400)
Which one would be a better choice?
A6400+ few spare batteries+ lens with OSS
Or A6600+ lens without OSS??

[@OzzySafa]

Siddhant Khanal don’t rely on Ibis for stabilisation on the a6600 if you’re not going to use a lens with oss. If you care about having a internal flash that pops out then the a6400 is a better choice. But if you don’t care about flash then a6600 with better battery life will be great but if you’re going to use it for video with a lens with no oss then you will need a gimbal.

[@josephdoesathing]

Can these tips work on the a6400?

[@TheEverydayDad]

Most of them will but I have a dedicated A6400 video 👍

[@markshirley01]

I was confused by your video settings. Why not just go to manual set your shutter set your f-stop and then set auto iso. Using apature priority or shutter priority seems a strange way to do things ( or is it a Sony thing with auto iso).

[@TheEverydayDad]

I should have mentioned this would be outside when the ISO is already set to as low as it can go and you dont want to go in full auto mode.

[@Ebeoji]

I was planning to buy the 90d but the a6600 is also good... which should I get?

[@TheEverydayDad]

Both are great cameras, if you want a higher megapixel better stills camera go 90d, if you want a more compact better video camera with stabilization go a6600 👍

[@cupface5822]

If you want better low light and the 90d dosen't have real 4k its upcraled 1080p while a6600 has 6k downscale to 4k so it's way sharper in video. 90d is better for photography (barely) while video is whyyyyy a6600

[@vidpic8311]

Hi every day dad, why do you have the external monitor? I thought the whole point of this camera, was it had the flip up screen monitor so you could see yourself and not need the ext, thanks🙂

[@kiloqubit]

he's using it in this video to record the screen

[@JP11]

What audio setup did you have in this video?

[@mirrorlessny]

5th time im seeing a question like this, which means im doing the right thing by writing gear details like that for every video

[@slr7075]

Expecting Sony to release the a6700 with the only difference of adding the hot shoe back...oh and also increasing the price until it makes no sense.

[@mirrorlessny]

see that fuji xt4 ? that's quiet a price tag for an APSC camera

[@Mary-uf9zt]

Hi, can anyone help me to unlock languages on Sony a6600? I’ve bought it China and it doesn’t have English on it, the whole system is in Chinese.

[@vernonnichols1164]

Hey, I cant find the 24p 4k settings on my a6600. Only get 25p 100m / 60m...

[@vernonnichols1164]

NV - Only US uses NTCS out the box - I had to change to get 24p.... all good :)

[@alanhart6407]

K3M!!

[@TheEverydayDad]

The crispiest of audio.

[@AATxindurri]

Do hou think that the a6500 still worth it, even with the battery issues? Is because the price 😬

[@luisg694]

Naw just save your money, I have the A6500 and A6600 and I feel like selling my A6500 now because the A6600 feels alot better and the A6600 battery is amazing!!

[@venchanthony7827]

NOW, I'M 4TH!

[@TheEverydayDad]

And this is the fourth response! 👍

[@umairahmad1703]

your naughty style is very nice

[@OzzieTech]

First im back BABY!!!

[@TheEverydayDad]

Boom! Welcome back!

[@OzzieTech]

@@TheEverydayDad miss me :)

[@tonyhallelujah6364]

Here because he basically sold me an A6600 with his last video

[@genghis2510]

I thought I would learn something new that’s not in the manual. Nice video for those who like to be spoon feed.

[@GrantSR]

If Sony listened to user feedback, they would have cleaned up the menus decades ago. And they would have made touch screens work with the menus.
(Says the guy who bought into the Sony ecosystem knowing FULL WELL just how bad the menus are...)

[@JonnyBravo0311]

Ok... this is the first time I've really seen the Sony menu system. I'd heard it was a mess from other creators, but nobody really dove into it in their reviews. Seeing it here, all I can say is wow... that's just awful. Combine that menu with the complete inability to do anything on the screen itself, and this camera has dropped from a strong contender to somewhere close to the bottom of my list.

[@saltisgood7961]

iPhone 11 Pro FTW Lol

[@TheEverydayDad]

I just use the non pro one 👍
