New Sony A6500 tests (and it’s shipping in Europe)

Hugh Brownstone published that over 30min long A6500 review. So have your popcorn ready when you starting watching this :)

Sony A6500 Field Test Part I at Imaging Resource:

Although burst performance is greatly improved, write performance isn’t. This has long been something of a bugbear for Sony’s cameras, and the A6500 is no different. With no UHS-II compatibility, it can take a while for the A6500 to catch up after a burst and write your images to memory — and until they’re all written, they can’t be checked for focus, exposure and composition.
You can now, however, at least review those images which have already been written to storage while you’re waiting for the buffer to clear. And there’s also now an indication on the display showing how many images are remaining in the buffer. That helps a bit with the watched-kettle-never-boils syndrome, giving you an idea of how much longer you’ll have to wait before you can review those last images or access the camera’s full capabilities.

The A6500 is shipping in Europe (example Fotomundus) and will ship within 24 hours in USA too:

A6500 in Stock status at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama. In EU at Amazon.de, Fotomundus, Calumet.de. WexUK. PCHstore.
