Hacking Photography - one Picture at a time
Now that all of the major brands finally have APS-C mirrorless cameras. Or, well, now that Nikon’s finally caught up with everybody else and released an APS-C mirrorless camera, which is the best?
Well, Chris and Jordan at DPReview TV took the four best APS-C mirrorless cameras from each brand and put them all to the test to see where each one shines and where each one… Well, kinda sucks. In the running are the Sony A6600, Fujifilm X-T4, Canon EOS M6 Mark II and Nikon Z50.
With so many manufacturers now offering some pretty decent levels of in-body image stabilisation in their mirrorless cameras, how do they all stack up against each other? That’s what Dave Pardue at Imaging Resource wanted to find out when he built this rig that lets him test four cameras side-by-side at the same time.
In this video, he tests four popular APS-C and Micro Four Thirds bodies. The Sony A6600, Fujifilm X-T4, Panasonic GH5 and Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark III. To make the test fair, and focus solely on IBIS, he paired each with a similarly specced lens with no optical stabilisation. But how do they all stand up against each other?
The title of this post is a somewhat rhetorical question, because whether or not you’ll be able to tell the difference largely depends on what you’re shooting, the lens you’re using, the level of tech in the sensor and how the final image is going to be displayed. But there are definitely some differences between sensors at different sizes.
In this video, The Slanted lens takes a look at four cameras with different sensor sizes in various conditions to see how they stack up against each other. Interestingly, they don’t just pixel peep on the computer screen, either. They also make 24″ prints to see if you can really spot the difference in the real world.
Many of us have our little rituals and must-haves we must buy when we get a new camera. For me, it’s usually some form a cage these days that I can bolt all my other doohickies to, but for Justin “Dunna” McDonough, it’s the humble L bracket. After recently picking up the new Sony A6600, he put together this little video to explain why.
People have been waiting a long time for a high-end APS-C model from Sony, and there’s been a lot of talk about a mythical “A7000”. It looks like that camera might finally now be here, although it’s not called the A7000, it’s the Sony A6600.
Yes, Sony has announced a new APS-C mirrorless camera, but they’ve not just announced one. They’ve announced two. Alongside the A6600, there’s also a new Sony A6100, a replacement for the ageing A6000.
