Sony’s A6500 Mirrorless Camera Brings 5-Axis Stabilized 4K & Touch Focus

Back in March, Sony introduced us to the 4K-capable Alpha 6300 mirrorless camera – a successor to the popular A6000 shooter. Now, we welcome its bigger brother: the A6500. A higher end variant despite the fact that the internals remain the same, the new camera gets an upgrade on a few important things especially if you’re shooting video. First off, you’re getting a new built-in body 5 axis image stabilization, which is compatible with OSS lenses as well. Second, is users will finally be getting a touchscreen. And lastly, improvements on the shutter, buffer, and focus confirmation should help action shooters get the perfect shot. Retailing for a bit higher price at PHP 81,999, you should check out our quick preview video (with 4K video samples) above or read up on more specs below to find out if its for you.
