The Sony Alpha A6500 Digital Camera combines the world's fastest autofocus speed and highest number of autofocus points with in-camera 5-axis image stabilisation, touchscreen AF and a 24.2MP Exmor CMOS sensor. The Sony A6500 utilises the same 4D FOCUS system a Fast Hybrid AF system that combines high-speed phase detection AF with extremely accurate contrast AF and allows it to capture and lock on to moving subjects in as little as 0.05 seconds as the A6300. It also features 425 phase detection AF points and High-density Tracking AF Technology, and, thanks to faster internal processing capabilities, has a maximum buffer for high-speed continuous shooting of 307 frames. The A6500’s APS-C sized 24.2 MP Exmor CMOS sensor works together with a BIONZ X image processor to maximise processing power and achieve an impressive sensitivity range of ISO 100-51200.
Able to shoot 4K (3840x2160p) video in the popular Super 35mm format on the full width of the image sensor, the A6500 uses full pixel readout without pixel binning to collect 6K of information approximately 2.4x (20 MP equivalent) as many pixels as 4K UHD and then oversamples the information to produce high quality 4K footage with exceptional detail and depth.
This M kit includes the 18-135mm f3.5-5.6 OSS Lens. This is an extremely versitile lens, with a fantastic zoom range in a lighweight and compact body. The edge to edge detail from this lens is impressive and the fast auto focus is quiet which is perfect for weddings, christenings or any event, where a noisy lens motor can distract the proceedings. It also means that video footage can be taken, with the same quiet motor. The lens not only gives a brilliant zoom range, but its close focus facility is a mere 0.45m (0.29x maximum magnification), making it really easy to get a close up shot. The circular nature of the aperture means that background blur is not difficult to create and the ED lens and two aspherical lenses mean pin sharp images every time.
