A photographer who takes pictures on the spot.

For those who want to play with cameras, if the budget is enough, most of them will consider starting with high-end full-frame cameras, but in fact, the light monocular of APS-C system can also take high-quality photos comparable to professional monocular. Although Sony α6500 is only the size of a palm, it can take good photos comparable to a full-frame machine. In this paper, the photographer Ronin is invited to play with himself and see how good photos Sony α6500 can take!

For many camera players, when they play to a certain extent, they will start to consider the Quan Huafu model, but usually they will hesitate again and again at this stage because of budget considerations ... There are also APS-C models in the realization stage, which have the same photographic strength as Quan Huafu models. Sony Alpha 6500 has the exquisite body of a consumer camera, but it can take professional photos comparable to Quan Huafu models. For the majority of high-end camera players, Sony α6500 can be said.

Firstly, the characteristics of Sony α6500 are briefly introduced: it is equipped with 24.2 million pixel CMOS photosensitive elements, with the highest speed of 4FOCUS technology and 425 phase focusing points, the focusing speed is as fast as 0.05 second, the continuous shooting speed can reach 1 1 frame/second, and it can store about 307 frames in continuous shooting at most, and it also has the function of high-resolution 4K professional video recording in super 35mm format. However, the biggest highlight of Sony α6500 is the introduction of the first 5-axis optical anti-shake system, which is applied in the photo room and has faster autofocus and high-density tracking autofocus technology. Next, we will follow in the footsteps of photographer Ronin. Because it is an external model, this time we will match the lens of18-105mm (SELP18105g) to see the camera strength of Sony α6500 by taking photos at will.

▲ As an APS-C model, portability is the primary condition. Sony α6500 adopts lightweight magnesium alloy body, weighing only 453g. The design of the handle is about the size of a palm, which is completely ergonomic and feels very light. Even if it is held for a long time, it will not bring a burden to the wrist. In addition, the top of the fuselage is equipped with the same C 1 and C2 buttons as A7 II series, which is convenient for free shooting. In the past, the young lady who took outdoor photography not only had to carry the camera, but also had to carry a lot of outdoor photography lights, light control equipment, lenses and other equipment. But on the same day, I saw the photographer Ronin holding a Sony α6500 and a reflector, and she looked relaxed. The photos she took were not inferior to her own Sony A7 II.

Although Sony α6500 has a variety of scene modes built in, in order to simply show the camera performance and take the model as the main shooting mode, photographer Ronin only used the "portrait" mode to take pictures that day, and other parameters were hardly adjusted, so as long as he focused on composition, he could take professional-grade photos with Sony α6500.

▲ Attached is the first real shot scene-the real shot photo of Shisanxing Museum. Sony α6500 and A7 II are almost neck and neck in color performance.

▲ Because Sony α6500 focuses on 4D focusing technology and high-speed continuous shooting, we will try continuous shooting in the second scene-Tiantai Square. Photographer Ronin kept the model moving back and forth towards the camera. Sony α6500 supports 425 focal plane phase detection autofocus points, and the focus is dense enough to cover the whole image area, easily ensuring that no subject escapes from the focus when taking pictures.

In addition, photographer Ronin praised the continuous shooting effect of Sony α6500, and the continuous shooting speed can reach 1 1 frame per second (up to 307 frames), which is especially suitable for capturing continuously moving models with the same composition. Photographer Ronin also pointed out that compared with A7RII continuous shooting, there is a slight delay, but this is not the case on Sony Alpha 6500, and it is almost completely synchronized when you see the picture and then press the shutter.

▲ Attach the second photo of Sony α6500 continuous shooting in Tiantai Square.

▲ The third scene was moved to a large grassland nearby. Because the lens of18-105mm (SELP18105 g) is used this time, photographer Ronin said that telephoto shooting is usually prone to hand shake, but thanks to the support of Sony α6500 for 5-axis stabilization system, when using105 mm,

▲ Attach some model photos of the third scene, a large grassland.

Just now, the second rooftop scene was just shooting a model walking on the stage. I'm afraid the strengths of Sony Alpha 6500-4D focusing, fast focusing and high-speed continuous shooting can't be brought into play. So after shooting the model that day, we deliberately moved to the karting yard to test the fast focusing and high-speed continuous shooting strength of Sony α6500 by shooting karting at high speed.

▲ Attach some photos of kart turning moment and linear acceleration. It can be seen that even when driving at a high speed of 90~ 100km/h, the theme of go-karting is still very clear, and there is almost no paste shadow and afterimage.

It's hard to imagine that you can take such a high-level photo with a Sony α6500 monocular without using any lamps. It's unbelievable! In terms of color representation, the BIONZ X image processing engine on Sony α6500 is supported by LSI technology. The image processing algorithm optimized by using photosensitive elements can not only reduce noise, but also enhance image texture and clarity. Photographer Ronin praised Sony Alpha 6500 for its bright colors and Bisogni A7RII for its ruddier colors, which is very suitable for shooting female portraits. In addition, the sky is layered, unlike the ashes seen by the naked eye. In addition, unlike the usual ratio of 4:3, this time Sony Alpha 6500 is equipped with a LCD screen with a ratio of 16:9, and the composition is closer to the film. Finally, push the 5-axis stabilization system, and seamlessly connect with autofocus, high-speed continuous shooting, or various lenses. Want to experience the fun of taking good photos with you, Sony α6500 will never let you down! Photographer: Li Yanxun ronin
