Abstract: One of the most significant developments in digital photography has been the introduction of mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras. By removing the mirror and optical viewfinder, manufacturers are able to make their cameras smaller, without compromising...
More consumer-friendly controls than NEX-7, including physical Mode dial, Lightweight and compact design, with prominent and comfortable grip, Sharp, bright, responsive OLED EVF, Tiltable, 3-inch high-res LCD monitor, Hybrid AF system with 99-point pha...
Design not as sleek as NEX-7 (though that might be a pro for some), Hybrid AF system still lags behind some comparably priced DSLRs in terms of speed and accuracy, Can't separate AF activation from shutter button, Default toggling between manual and au...
When adding up the pros and cons to the Sony NEX-6, it's pretty clear that there's not much to dislike about this compact system camera. The NEX-6 truly carves out its own space in Sony's CSC lineup, and even though its resolution has been scaled down ...
The NEX-6 is one power-packed mirrorless camera. It's got Wi-Fi, an OLED EVF with a crazy resolution, a tilt-swivel screen and great ergonomics. As for performance, it's got very impressive image quality and coupled up with a superb AF system, we see t...
new mode dial, builtin viewfinder and flash, WiFi, full feature set, good performance, above average image quality, full manual exposure control in video
confusing menu system, even with mode dial, still too dependent on menus, poorly positioned "red" movie button
The Sony NEX-6 is a great little camera and, one of my personal favorites. Other than its sometimes confusing menu system, the NEX-6 is well designed for comfortable and efficient shooting for enthusiasts and those just stepping up from compact cameras. ...

Abstract: Get the NEX-7's top features at a lower priceWhat's Hot: Very High image quality through ISO 3200. What's Not: 3-fps bursts not as fast as we'd like to see. Who It's For: Shooters looking for a mid-level ILC who don't need the resolution of the NEX-7.What...
Continuing with the great success that Sony has had with its NEX series of mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras, the NEX-6 is proving to be both very powerful and versatile. Its APS-C sized sensor and BIONZ image processor give you quality that will...
Quality: slightly above average.Why you'd buy the Sony NEX-6: easy to use; access to a reasonable range of lenses.Why you wouldn't: no touch screen operation; the memory cat\rd slot is fiddly to deal with.If you don't need the image size of the NEX-7, thi...
Exceptional stills and quality videos, Excellent OLED EVF/tilting LCD, Easy to carry, Just plain fun to use
Occasional AF misfires, Should have a touchscreen LCD, Wi-Fi could definitely be improved
The Sony NEX-6 is a superior Compact System Camera we highly recommend. It delivers high-quality stills and videos. Like every digicam on the planet, it's not perfect, but if you're cognizant of its few limitations and can deal with them, you'll be a ha...
Hybrid AF with phase and contrast detect, 2.3 million dot EVF, 10fps burst mode with continuous AF, Wi-Fi enabled with picture sharing, remote control and downloadable apps, Compact lightweight powered kit zoom.
Lack of touch screen, Poor AF performance in low light, Movie button difficult to press and not programmable.
The Sony NEX-6 is a pretty remarkable camera. Though it isn't the flagship NEX model, I can quickly see it overtaking the NEX-7 in popularity at the top end of the NEX range. There are those for whom anything less than 24 Megapixels just won't do and ...

A fine shooting design, great photo and good video quality, and excellent performance number among the Sony Alpha NEX-6's strengths
The camera lacks the option to save groups of custom settings, a real irritation, and we wish it had a neutral color preset. Plus Sony's wireless implementation is awkward, and the app system is annoying
The Sony Alpha NEX-6 delivers an as-yet-unbeatable package of image quality, performance, and design, even for its rather high price.
