NEX-6/B
Who says you can't have it all? The NEX-6 features a wish list of features
and still fits in your pocket. And it's fast, too. Make quick changes with
a handy DSLR-like dial. Focus and track fast-moving subjects with the
speed and accuracy of phase and contrast detection. It even shoots
16.1MP photos at a blistering up to 10fps. It's the end of compromise as
we know it.
16.1 MP APS-C size HD image sensor
The same sensor format that Sony builds into the full-sized DSLRs. With 13 times the area of the typical point-and-
shoot image sensor, APS-C makes the difference between "snapshots" and "photographs," delivering an exceptional
combination of high resolution, high sensitivity and gorgeous, blurred backgrounds.
Fast Hybrid AF
Sony's advanced Fast Hybrid AF combines two technologies for outstanding performance: Phase detection AF for
quick response that is ideal when tracking fast-moving subjects and contrast-detection AF for added precision. A
perfect match that delivers optimal Auto Focus for fast, precise focusing in any scene.
XGA Tru-Finder™ OLED
There's never been anything quite like the Tru-Finder™ OLED electronic viewfinder. For size, speed and brightness
even after sunset, this is a gem. This eye-level, through-the-lens, viewfinder begins with 2359K dots for amazing
resolution and high contrast ratio for incredible depth. OLED reduces motion blur to a bare minimum. You can also
see the results of camera adjustments in real time with superb color and detail.
