Sony a6600 vs Fujifilm X-T3 Review: King of compact cameras?

[@teridzard1776]

I always wonder how many percent of camera buyers are actually "vloggers". Maybe it is a number like 0.5%?

[@marcd7332]

Jason Levine Hm I’m sure most people stopped buying cameras for vacation since the iPhone came out

[@dash3dot]

it's actually closer to 0.01%

[@Ell.06]

Was thinking exactly this!

[@Fabio-rg9nv]

The thing is that most camera reviews are on KZbin and those are pretty much the only people that really vlog a lot. So it seems like a whole lot of people complain about it, but in reality there are so many other photographers and videographers that enjoy Fujifilm‘s screen design and I really hope they don‘t change it just because of vloggers complaining.

[@trolledyou7032]

That flippy screen is very handy not only for vlogging you idiots. And ibis is just awesome for pictures too, not only for video.

[@joe_a_photo]

I love how people want a flip out screen to take selfies with a $1,400 camera. Selfies seem like the LOWEST priority when buying an expensive camera.

[@starwf07]

For real. I actually even get a bit annoyed that people spend time discussing vlogging potential in a review of a premium camera. Vlogging is at about the very bottom of the photography/videography totem pole in a close race with bathroom-mirror-selfies and sending pictures of your mole to your doctor.

[@Fabio-rg9nv]

I‘ve always preferred Fujifilm‘s screen. Vlogging is literally the only capability the screen lacks while doing great in every other situation, in landscape AND portrait orientation. I think the reason so „many“ people complain about no flip screen is because we‘re on KZbin and those people making reviews are pretty much the only people that vlog. But the truth is that the majority of photographers and videographers don‘t film themselves at all. I really hope Fujifilm keeps their screen design, no matter how many KZbinrs complain about it, because there are so many other people that (I bet) really enjoy their display the way it is.

[@legend240891]

untrue. this screen is for monitoring purpose when you dont want to bring a dedicated monitor along. it can be very convenient.

[@praftman]

[@shang-hsienyang1284]

I don't think the 4:00 shot is blurry due to the lack of stabilization, I think it's blurry because Chelsea was moving.

[@marcd7332]

And it’s actually good for 1/30th

[@stuartschaffner9744]

I grew up using cameras with no stabilization. When stabilized lenses came along, it was liberating. Yes, back in the old days, 1/30th of a second was too slow. To get sharp images, you needed to carry tripods or flashes or simply avoid taking images inside. Think of the reciprocal rule as a limitation on unstabilized camera systems, not some general rule for all photography. Having an entire new area of the exposure triangle opened up gives you many new creative opportunities. Personally, I prefer having one IBIS system in the camera body and then be able to use unstabilized lenses. Also, I strongly suspect that the combination of lens and body stabilization is even better.

[@subject8123]

Was this really a versus video? Seems more like the first 10 minutes are 100% paid for by Sony and the remainder has a few brief comparisons between the two. With some look at all my camera clips thrown in.

[@Rek-55]

+ 70% of time about sony.

[@stuartschaffner9744]

Yes, this is a versus video about a just-released camera compared to a very well-known and reviewed alternative. It would make no sense to spend the same amount of time on the details of both. It’s an interesting concept that a mixture of positive and negative comments about the 6600 must be “100% paid for by Sony”, whereas a long list of specific differences (many favorable to the XT3) is “a few brief comparisons”.

The Fuji X T3 is ART in every way. There are lots of native high quality OIS lenses for it, that won't tire you out before the end of a shoot, so no in body stabilization is not an issue. The battery inadequacy is an issue, if you shoot a lot of 4K, but not so much for the still shooter. The EVF alone is one of the best out there and Fuji support is second to none.

But I didn't hear what I needed to hear from any of the youtubers I've watched.

it's true. but those kind of review videos are usefull for some people who are beginner or who can't try those cameras because not shop selling the cameras around (in my case).

[@kingweddingmedia]

I’m an a7iii owner with a6400’s as my back ups. For me, the a6400 is a better value purchase over the 6600 as you’re pretty much only getting sensor stabilisation (which isn’t really all that great - the extra battery life doesn’t bother me) as an extra. If they had gave it 2 card slots then I’d say the difference would have definitely been worth it.

[@willbrink]

This was perhaps the most useful review, especially for those on the fence between the Sony and the Fuji. I ended up going with the Sony 6600. I can see the attraction of the Fuji, especially at it reminds of cameras of old, like my Nikon FE2 for which I have such fond memories and learned on, but I time waits for no one and I felt Sony the modern APC that should be more camera than I'd ever need and is smaller than the Fuji, a major reason for having an APC.

Quick question, how does the X-H1 compare to newer cameras in 2019? Due to the price drop, is it a worth purchase for the IBIS for stills in exchange for the worse auto focus over the X-T3?

I've been wavering between picking up a XT-3 or an A7iii for a while. I love the Fuji lenses, ergonomics and overall joy of using the camera. The A7iii is a powerhouse but an expensive eco-system to buy into past the body. Still going back and forth but Sony a6600 doesn't change that for me. If I wanted crop I'd go for the X-T3, If I wanted full frame I'd go for the A7iii.

No it's absolutely necessary, your some kind of heretic who clearly knows nothing. Ibis is so essential that photographs taken without it are completely blank. No one can possibly take a 1/125th second shot without massive blur due to shakes and shutter shock. It's madness to proceed without ibis. Cameras without it should be binned.

[@Hazard4Tactical]

Great video. We just got the xt3 and 6 lenses but love our Sony’s. For video the Sony has so much rolling shutters hand held that it’s better off to get the jittery XT3 which is more natural and easier to fight in post.

Post production is the main reason I got rid of most of my sony equipment. I find that when I use the Fuji, there is little (comparatively) that needs to be done, while Sony files don't look right to my eye and almost always require work.

[@TheEulerID]

Look at the Canon EOS RP for vlogging because it has full frame? Not when you use 4K with a 1.6 x crop. What's more you lose access to dual-pixel AF. Of course, you can stick to 1080 and use the full frame, but it still suffers on video quality compared to some of the competition, as it doesn't do full video frame readout. Of course it doesn't have IBIS either.

It’s hard to compare cameras without talking about the lenses available. It’d be interesting to see how the E 16-55mm f2.8 compares to Fuji’s XF equivalent. Even so, the XF 16mm f1.4 alone keeps me in the Fuji camp; that lens is pure magic.

[@garystackhouse5787]

8:18 The shotgun mic ABOVE the lens vs BESIDE the lens makes no difference. Unless you mount it IN FRONT of the lens, it's still not lined up. For optimal audio, you need to aim it no matter WHERE it's mounted. If it's above the lens, you aim it down at the subjects mouth... if it's to the side, you aim it sideways at the subject's mouth... no difference whatsoever. -Signed, an audio engineer/producer.

The issue that I have with many reviewers is not that they discuss vlogging potential of a camera, but the amount of emphasis they give to those features and the negative marks they give cameras that don't cater to vloggers. I also think that being a video user (as a career), you tend to revolve around other videographers (it's only logical), and given that youtube carries so much weight these days, the few reviewers, who are vloggers by necessity, skew the feedback that manufacturers get...

Well, I guess I'm not gonna switch to X-T3 soon. I'm 50\50 photo video shooter, and after more than a year of savings I initially bought Sony a6400, which is a great camera, but due to some tech issues and really annoying sensor dust attraction, it wasn't suitable for me. I was on hurry with my purchase, because at the time I needed to film an interview with elderly person, which had a lot of health issues, and could probably, you know, die. And due to possibility of that interview be the final moments of the life of that person, I wanted to film that in rather good quality etc. When a6400 launched it was ridiculously overpriced in my region, about $200 more compare to officially announced prices. The initial price was roughly 1/3 of yearly wage of our family, so it was pretty substantial purchase for me. Weeks after I filmed that interview Sony announces a huge discount on a6400, which was about $158. Some stores claimed that it's gonna be until November 3rd, but discount is still there. So, just like that, even if I try to sell my a6400, I lose a pretty noticeable amount of money, and I'll still need a lot in order to buy X-T3 (kinda afraid to buy used, due to scams and frauds, which is sadly pretty common in my region).

[@pf4773]

I just completed my own quick still-image assessment of the Sony A6400 (slightly older version of the A6600 so slightly less image quality in the processor) and the Fuji XT3 using Imaging Resource's Comparometer. In their lab settings all you need to do is scroll down to a test image, set the ISO (in this case 3200 because I want good low-light image quality) then compare the two camera images enlarged considerably side by side. Remember, given today's technology we are looking at only slight, but still noticeable differences between cameras within their respective class types (in this case ASPC). Although the difference is slight I would comfortably rate the Sony A6400 image as good as to slightly better (perhaps up to 10%) than the Fuji XT3. Given that the A6400 image is slightly better and the Sony A6600 has the best auto focus in the business along with IBIS that the Fuji does not have, I would overall bet that the core quality of Sony A6600 images will be consistently better than the Fuji XT3. There is no comparison between an objective, lab-based image quality assessment with parameters carefully controlled for and someone's subjective measurement, although subjective assessments can point out a great deal in terms of other factors. So, if one is looking for the camera that will consistently take the better picture, all other factors controlled for, I would hands down bet on the Sony a6600 over the Fuji XT3. Again, see for yourself by going to the Imaging Resource's website-then click on the top of the home page for 1. camera reviews, then 2. compare images: Comparometer.

For the most part, flip up screen does the job. Except vlogging. And so, SONY has provided a very small converter kinda thing to shift the hotshoe mount to the side which gets the job done.

[@wfp9378]

15:42 having used almost all of the brands over the years this is right on the money. Sony should spend some money, get a few different independents to formulate some options for a menu replacement, put them up on line in an interactive way for people to comment and vote on and release their cameras with one of them while maintaining the option for the others to be unofficially installed. They would slay their competition. But they won’t. An open source development for their camera firmware like what we have in Linux would astound them with the amount of love it would garner them.

Size matters. Aps-c should be as compact as possible. If you need a bigger body, there is plenty good reasons to buy full frame, and few to buy aps-c.

[@lboymusic]

The Canon RP/R, doesn't do Dual Pixel AF, in 4K video, and it is heavily cropped . Why didn't you say that?

[@davva360]

I upgraded from the A6000 but got the A6400. Has most of the features of the A6600 the main thing missing is IBIS. I am sure IBIS is a good feature but I do not have an issue with camera shake even with the Sigma 16mm F1.4. I did not think it was worth another $500. I thought about going full frame but the lens prices put me off. I would have needed to buy a body and a good 24-70 and did not want to spend that much. I may go full frame at some point but not ready to do that yet. May wait for the A7iv, and buy an A7iii once the price drops.

[@allenschneider1847]

I'm hoping for an xt4 or an xh2, either one should hopefully address the current shortcomings.

[@klarion]

I feel totally set with xt3 and xh1

[@gizmoriderfulye8007]

For me, the biggest point was the size and quality of lenses. = Fuji was the clear winner. Just get some 20 buck spare batteries if thats a prob.

[@KingofStreet3]

They do sell a battery pack that connects to camera. Dummy battery to a power bank. Been looking at it but is always sold out.

[@TheRealLivingWithLisa]

I have a Sony a6300 ... wondering if it's really worth going to the a6600? Or should I continue to wait and see what comes out next? I have ALL crop sensor lens ( otherwise I'd go a7c) Thoughts anyone????????

[@HappyHubris]

Tony, when you compare lens options it would be great if you included the more mundane lenses like 35mm OSS/35mm WR, the 18-135mm options from each company, etc.

[@subramoniams9850]

Trying to get back to photography after a long time. COVID days is the main reason. Had migrated to Fuji from a SONY SLR fan thanks to their superzoom X-S1 and a bad back. Smitten by Fuji colors and in camera processing, later got a XE2 with the kit lens, XF55-200, XF100-400. Family events, some travel, birding etc. are my aim. Still I have a SONY SAL16-80ZA and SAL70-300G from SLR days. No takers (made a mistake selling the A580 body alone) for these lenses now. To put them back to use with a LAEA5 adaptor do you see any issues with A6600? Would these lenses benefit from the in body stabilization? A6600 is selling discounted now

[@wildgeesemediaagency]

The one thing that puts me off from considering fuji cameras is the absolute lack of any grip. You really need to buy that separately and that is just something I do not need as it is extra weight etc.

[@1ccfjeff]

In another video ~"are DSLRs" dead (or dying?) you mentioned that Fuji mirrorless weren't selling well & they were a prime candidate for discontinuing them... & a risk to buy into a system that might be going away. Did I understand that correctly? Do you think that is a factor to take into account?

[@yoramlebovits6361]

Hi if you did not notice the Canon RP occasionally loses focus while you recommend it

[@GabrielZota]

Not fair!! 6600 vs X-T3 ,when fuji already released X-T4 ,wich has ibis and bigger batery. Hmmmm

[@SteveMillerhuntingforfood]

The XT4 was and still is not ready to ship, B&H shows May 11 for ship dates. This video was released in Nov 2019, so the XT3 was the comparison.

[@AllCarsUnited]

Not feeling this one. Was hoping for 10bit for video. A7s3 hopefully withing the next 20 years maybe?

[@JohnDrummondPhoto]

Nowadays when Tony holds cameras and stuff way close to the vlog camera, it feels like he's just trolling Camera Conspiracies... "Oh look! See how fast my Canon refocuses on my face!"

[@bryanauer]

all he wants is the perfect cammmerrraaah...

[@logancall6826]

All of the drawbacks mentioned with the X-T3 are addressed in the X-T4. Is there any plan of a comparison between the a6600 and the X-T4 in the future?

[@TonyAndChelsea]

We’re working on our X-T4 review now.

[@mikldude9376]

what about video record time ?

[@AtonalMeasureRecords]

XT3 for me all day long, its more of an artists camera if that makes sense, magical pictures roll off of it rather than technically perfect, sharp and flat. Sonys are great tools, but the images from them always require post processing to make them into something, the fuji's files hardly need touching. The fuji has an organic quality no other digital mirrorless can do.

[@loudandclearmedia]

B&H currently has the A7iii for $1799, making the A6600 with it's limited, mediocre glass even tougher of a sell. If it had 4K60 that'd be different, but the 6600 seems like its just a 6500 with a firmware update and a bigger battery.

[@Hughguru]

I admire you and Chelsea and how much you guys are offering generously for free, thank you and keep it up. Hugh

[@yowandbm]

I went for a6600 due to stabilization, battery and better focus in the end. But Fuji look so vintage, much much better to me.

[@craigpurcell2919]

Tony, what is the beautiful brown leather half case / strap you are using on the X-T3?

[@CharlieVN]

It doesn’t work with the Sony mic mentioned............

[@RangelCostes]

I'm rocking the a 6400 and I never EVER go under 1/100 at 50m 1.8

[@djixyacine]

Unless you shoot in low light.

[@thomasfeldbauer5025]

What's your opinion about a selfie screen that flips down? It should not be that hard to produce a grip with a window-frame that let you see through for vlogging? And on top of this it is better to sometimes look a little bit down when talking to people. We do this all day long if we switch from looking to eyes and mouth during conversation.

[@bennielaars]

You make a big point of in-body stabilization yet the XT-3 (without) is your favorite camera to use.

[@youknowwho9247]

How does the a6600's autofocus performance compare to the D500 for sports and wildlife? Is real time tracking as good as 3D tracking for sports? Does the a6600 do as good in modes comparable to group af in picking out birds against tricky backgrounds in low light?

[@EdoardoLegnaro]

Very nice content as always! You mentioned Final Cut, have you switched from Premiere? As a frustrated Premiere user and being in the market for a new laptop, I'd be very interested in hearing your experience with Final Cut and your Macbook Pro. Thank you!

[@CoveringFish]

NOOOOOO go windows and go davinci resolve

[@Asagohantabemasuka]

Fcpx is amazing. I've been using it since its crappy 10.0.0 version back in 2011, and since then it has evolved into a powerhouse, its fast, stable, fluid, intuitive and versatile. And also, forget about rendering. Its one of the best investments I've ever made. For professional use is among the best, together with DaVinci Resolve.

[@eliasalerno8942]

"okay it lacks a joystick but you know what, you can FOCUS AND RECOMPOSE now!!"

[@Daniel-tj5qv]

When do you publish the comparison between the sony and fujifilm lenses?

[@TonyAndChelsea]

oh lol forgot about it. Let me edit it and upload it today. Sorry about that.

[@thinkdee_]

Tony, I really love the leather like case you are using for the X-T3, can you share the link for it? Great video again. Thank you for making these videos.

[@tuan056585]

Hi Tony, I do have a question on the A6600. While shooting a video, can we take a picture also? (Dual Recording). Thank.

[@850Tech]

Hello Tony I am currently using EOS M6 Mark II. What do you think a Worthy upgrade in 2022 in midrange price range? ( Already I got some Canon EF lenses btw)

[@shibunarendranathan5592]

Got interested in the Canon R you are using ... are you using any setting that makes foucs slow? I saw some focus lag around 9:45.. I am considering a6600 mainly because of foucs tracking during video shoot...

[@RS-qr7ck]

With my Sony A6400 I focus with my thumb on the touchscreen while Iooking through the viewfinder.

[@danbrowning2418]

You focus and recompose. Do you use back button focus or just the half-depress shutter button?

[@SkyGW]

Dan Browning pretty sure tony is a back button focuser

[@danbrowning2418]

Duc Nguyen I agree, on other cameras, but it looked to me like he used the shutter release button to focus on this one.

[@evanwanous2466]

So couldn’t you just get a stabilizer to compensate for the lack of IBIS on xt3?

[@KingofStreet3]

Yes but no. Cause most vloggers are too lazy to get a gimbal.

[@FunPaa]

Hmmm what about zv1 now ? Low light ? Indoor ? And lense performance as its non interchangeable

[@TonyAndChelsea]

We're discovering that the ZV1 is pretty bad in low light. Otherwise, check our ZV1 review.

[@BiggMo]

Tony - off topic question (from a beginner) - are there any cumulative benefits to using a stabilized lens on a stabilized body?

[@dansvid1023]

Yes, it allows more stability. Olympus and Panasonic have the best dual-IS systems. You can literally handhold for 1 second+ exposures and get tack-sharp results.

[@drashadibudi]

And you always complaint about sony ergonomics before. But never once realized that fuji grip very very very not ergonomic. And never complaint about it

[@Tophymaster]

9:04 I thought you don´t use the Sigma 18-35 because of the focus problems?

[@benomatography]

Tophymaster I guess it works better with mirrorless cameras than with dslrs

[@AnthonyTeasdale]

I updated the firmware on my 18-35 and it went from poor focus on a 80D to nailing focus all the time.

[@ryanthomas9306]

Seems like I'd rather save a few extra bucks and get the a7iii. I really want a gh5 with phase detection. I could live with the 15mm 1.7 all the time

[@orshanti]

Why not go olimpus omd em1 mk2 than? Or even em5 mk3...

[@Ridaz4LifeR6]

For video yes Gh5 other wise nah

[@Smoothblue90]

If the Panasonic Engineers are watching all these videos. The GH6 should be awesome.

[@ryanthomas9306]

@@orshanti Olympus is compatible with only olympus lenses right ? I didnt see any great in between lenses, it was either kit or go pro, so I went Panasonic back in the day with the g7. Loved the camera (not the shutter sound)

[@AlumarsX]

@@ryanthomas9306 Panasonic and Olympus share the micro four thirds mount. Even Sigma has lenses for it.

[@petrh.4947]

Why is camera so small and lens so big? Is this "perfect" balance?

[@ShadyEltaweel]

To make u look and focus at sony camera

[@user-ok6ef9zn4f]

4:00 maybe Don't shoot at a 30th of a second
