Kai covered the launch of the a6600 and a6100 in his typical style, but he seems to get stuck on just how good real-time autofocus performs. Hopefully, Sony will start to discontinue some of the confusingly named cameras they have out there with the a6xxx series, because as of right now the a6100 and a6600 are the only two seriously worth considering and maybe the a6400.
