Compact APS-C camera with defects

Sony NEX-6LB Compact system camera (16.1 megapixels, 7.6 cm (3 inch) TFT display, Full HD, HDMI, WiFi) incl. SEL-P1650 lens (Electronics)

Customer Review

The Nex-6 is still the most compact APS-C - camera with 3x zoom.
That was the main reason to buy for me. The fact that the battery can be recharged in the camera is for me an advantage because it saves me taking along a charger. Nevertheless, Sony could attach a charging cradle.
When I use the bag Hama Seattle Equipment Bag size 90 navy in the Nex-6 only just fits included charging cable.

Positives:

+ Very compact
+ Very good BQ
+ Focus peaking at manual focus
+ Fast image sequence to 10 images / sec. at full resolution
+ High-resolution LCD
Swivel LCD + 90 ° upwards and 45 ° downwards
+ Very good EVF
+ Built-in flash (can be for indiektes flashes
with his finger pointing upwards Press)
+ Freehand HDR images possible
+ Sweep Panorama possible
+ Battery can be loaded in the camera
+ Apps
+ WLAN

Negatives:

- Menu Structure confusing
- Auto ISO will not be limited manually
No supplied charging cradle -
- No self-timer / remote tripping when bracketing possible! (If foolishly interlocked in the menu)

The Apps are becoming more numerous, so visitors can now third lenses in the camera correct (vignetting, CA, distortion).

With the latest version 2.0 of Smart Remote you can now change via smartphone aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and exposure compensation, as well as determine the focal point via touch. (Prerequisite is the new firmware 1.02)

Those looking for a highly compact equipment, or an "always with you", and on good BQ, a viewfinder and built-in flash can not do without, is well served by the NEX-6.

*** ADDENDUM Battery Life ***

On the web I found the following:

"Sony has two charging states for a
Battery: Standard and Full.
Normal is the state you have once the
charging light has gone out; Full is
whathappens if you keep the battery
charging one hour after that. "

To German: when the charging LED turns off in the charge status "Normal"
If you can store about an hour longer is the state "Full".

I have tried with my Nex-6:
In Live View mode and "normal" charge it takes 2 minutes to the charge level of 100% is reduced to 99%.
After "Full" - the battery charge level drops only after 20 minutes! Live View at 99%.

Unfortunately, this is useful information not in the manual.
