Sony a7R II and a7S II are highly acclaimed by Sony, and the success of the new A99 II is justified. Let’s talk about design before PerformanceAnn presented by the maker of 42K megapixel full frame sensor and 4K video capability that we are accustomed to from Sony’s top segment cameras. Although the number of compact cameras has increased in recent times, the size of the interest in DSLR machines is also high. Sony has developed the a99 II in this direction with the focus of DSLR enthusiasts. From the design of the machine, it is possible to say that it has a great similarity with the a99 model. On the upper left of the a99 II, where a magnesium alloy body is preferred, there is a shooting mode ring on which you can adjust the shooting modes and press and lock.

The Sony a99 II does not have a built-in flash, just like it does on other high end cameras in the market. Especially if you are shooting in low light, you can choose Sony’s optional flashes using the hot shoe socket on the machine. If you are planning to shoot in the studio, you can connect an external light source to the machine using the flash connection on the left side of the machine. The ergonomics of the a99 II is very successful. Unlike the a99 II, E-Mount systems, which have won the accolade thanks to the quick focus system, the A-Mount type system is the answer. Let’s talk briefly about what these systems are if you want. Sony produces interchangeable lens cameras with E-Mount that does not use reflex mirrors or A-Mount with advanced full-aperture mirrors. E mount cameras, with their portability, while A-Mount machines are more noticeable for professional users. Come back to the photo quality of the machine that the reflex mirror is located between the back of the lens and the sensor. Sony’s new flagship machine, with the high-megapixel value as in the A7R II, is very detailed.

The Sony a99 II also carries magnificent photo performance in the same direction in video quality. Just as Sony is on the market for other top segment machines, the a99 II also supports professional quality S-Log3 and S-Log2 profiles for video recording. Offering a good tonal production to the mid-tone in the shadows, these profiles emphasize and help to control more on the shadows. The a99 II can record 4K videos at 100 Mbps in addition to Full HD video recording. Of course, it is useful to mention that you should use a very fast SD card when selecting this video setting. If you have a slow card, the machine can record 60 Mbps 4K video instead of 100 Mbps. It can play video at 120 frames per second in full HD resolution, and can also transfer wireless images to mobile devices via Wi-Fi and NFC connections. The Sony a99 II meets all expectations of photographers with both photo and video quality.

Canon EOS M6 offers a DSLR photo experience in a compact body. Canon, unfortunately, had not been able to give the photo enthusiast what he wanted with the EOS M, the first machine in the family, about 5 years ago. Especially because of the slowness in the autofocus system, EOS M suffered quite a lot of users. The company later released a solution to this problem with the software, but the Canon EOS M was disappointing. Later on, Canon, which achieved success by selling EOS M2, M3, M10 and M5 models, is confronted with its new machine EOS M6. Having left behind all the problems experienced at the EOS M, Canon also carries on the powerful performance offered by the other top segment cameras with the new compact mirrorless EOS M6.

We can say that the M6, which is lighter at the same time from the EOS M5, which targets more professionals, will be preferred by those who care about both portability and performance. The machine that Canon sends to our office has a black color, but the silver color of the EOS M6 is also available. On the upper part of the rangefinder-type mirrorless machine with metal body, there are 12 different shooting modes including manual and automatic, a wheel that enables you to adjust the exposure compensation, a power button, and a shutter button. The power on/off button on the machine is located just below the exposure compensation wheel.

On the right side is a button for HDMI and a wireless connection, and on the left side of the machine is a flash button, microphone and USB connections. SD card entry is under the EOS M6. When we look at the ergonomics of the EOS M6, we are not as successful as the other mirrorless compact machines on the market. If you are a DSLR user, you may have difficulty using it at first in the compact body of the EOS M6.

The Canon EOS M6 uses the Dual Pixel autofocus system as is the case with the EOS 800D and EOS 77D models. With this system, the machine can detect fast moving objects quickly and accurately. Let’s just say that the speedy autofocus performance offered by the machine has also benefited us. Another feature of the Canon EOS M6 is its 5-axis digital image stabilization. This system, which has recently come to light in most photographic machines, aims to avoid the jolts that can occur in photographs and videotapes. This makes it possible to take higher quality pictures in low light.

The 24.2 megapixel APS-C sensor is preferred, and the low light performance of the machine varies depending on your lens preference. It is also possible to choose the EF-M 15-45mm f / 3.5-6.3 IS STM lens on the machine which achieves highly successful frames at aperture values of F / 1.8 or F / 2.8. Despite the fact that it is a small camera, the EOS M6 still delivers the performance of a successful photo. Although it does not support 4K video recording, it is possible to perform 60 frames full HD video recording on the camera at the moment.
