As I say in the video, no camera is perfect. I came across six problems that really bugged me about the Sony a6500, but thankfully I was able to find a solution for all of them.
1. Weak battery
2. Bad LCD
3. No in-camera timelapse
4. Rolling Shutter
5. Overheating
6. Video Recording Time Limit

The A6500 has a beautiful image, wonderful DPAF, I love it despite it's quirks, and you've just given us some excellent ideas to deal with them , packed into a skinny 7.5 Min yet. It's never a waste to watch your content - Thank you! ... Oh and if you feel like you'd like to elaborate on how you came to create that profile I'd love to know!
Some really good tips there many thanks!
yooo thank you so much, for the timelapse app tip!! 😍
Thank you so much for helping me out with the timelapse app. I had to do it with an external app on my smartphone and now it's so much easier.
I couldn't find it on his website, where do you get it?

Thanks for your Informations
Thanks a lot, you`ve made great tutorial to improve using 6500 for a video matters!
Just found the rolling shutter was something I always kept in my mind in 4k... hand-held footage still had some distortion with the repair in premiere, hoping it will be less with my gimbal
Ugh you saved my life with this!
Thanks again
So cool! Thanks!
Very usefull ...
thanks tom!
Thanks for all these great Pros videos : i am learning a lot thru them. I just got the a6500. i need an advice about how to set up in advance my camera, for some shooting from a small plane (cessna) of a forrest above. I will have no times to try different set ups. I am afraid of shooting in 4 K with the rolling shutter mentioned so often. What would you do, you PROS ?
thank you !
Excelente explicação the best
good video, can you disable recording time limit for 4k video also?
Thank you
Very Good...
Tom, great video as always. I am a long Panasonic shooter using the GH4 currently and shoot stills with a Nikon D800 with lots of great Nikon glass. I am considering purchasing the GH5S over the GH5 because I use a Ronin stabilizer. I was wondering what other video camera that I should consider? Thank you.
thank you!!
Hi, thanks, great video.. I have a question please.. Do you know how can we enable touch screen focus pulling for either the A6500 screen or Atomos Ninja Inferno screen.. when connected via hdmi it appears to be disabled and this is a key feature on the A6500.. Many thanks!
First off: Thank you for this informative video. Seriously, 'Rolling Shutter Repare Effect'... Youŕe a lifesaver!
I have one question though:
I'm running a A6300 with the SmallHD Focus monitor. But the camera LCD screen turns off when I hit record . Are you aware of any way to fix this? Thanks in advance.
Good presentation. But which camera is the alternative of a6500 for 4k recording without these problems? ??
Hey Tom, what drone was used for that music video you shot? Great tips by the way, thanks
You from Tampa? Great video thinking of getting one this camera.
Good to know these problems are fixable, and the low camera initial cost makes it easier to buy accessories. GH5 is great camera but I think I prefer 6500
I want the a6500. But I've got the feeling that if I buy it now, its successor will be announced the second I put it in my hands, with (almost) all of those problems fixed. I FEEL IT. So I'm saving.
Same here. I'm about to replace my A6000, but there will be a new sony announcement in 2 weeks or so, and I'm quite affraid I'll miss the better camera if I buy this now.
If you need a camera now then just buy it. If you don't then buy it when u need it this way you'll have the latest. But don't wait just cuz a new better camera will come out soon. These days new models come out pretty much every year so regardless of when you buy it in a year your model will be old... but at least you will have shot all this cool stuff with that older camera instead of waiting around with nothing to show but the latest camera.
Benjamin Tran its an amazing camera. only lacking thing for me is the lack of headphone jack. Otherwise most of its problem can be solved if you are creative with it :)
when will the successor come?
im just waiting for as fs5 mk ii now :/
Always appreciate more a6500 videos. What hand strap are you using at 1:43? The Peak Clutch is too large unless I’m using a cage.
It's the came tv cage for the a6500 that comes with the strap
Tom, I have a question for you, on Play memories app to smart remote with my ipad, I only have shutter button, no other controls available to use, no ISO no zoom in-out ? What am I missing there? thanks
Tom Antos Sir,Please review your thinking on sony zv-e10
Heyooo Tampa represent 🤟🏼
Hi Tom, great video. I have a questions that I hope you have answer to. I've noticed that when I use my sony a6500 while charging from various power sources battery still drains while charging (not as quick but still) Is this a common issue with sony a6500 do you know? Thanks
I found that when I add the hdmi ext monitor an the external microphone, this last does not record sound: practically shut off. Is there any solution about that?
Antos! Thanks for your advices which made a big difference! Would you recommend a small and portable gimbal for A6500?
Yes this is the perfect gimbal for it
th-cam.com/video/Ld_5flfyfiw/w-d-xo.html
How do you do that focus pull like from the plant in foreground to waterfall in background? Is that manual (touching the sceen)? Or, a specific focus mode and settings? Thanks!
Thanks
When you stated that there is no time lapse, do you mean this is something I would deal with in post?
Wonderful advice, Tom!
I had given up on the a6500 'til I saw this video.
Thanks!
Hi like the videos can you do video about set up and slow motion if yes thx Execlllent video
first of all ....it very informative video ........10q very much!
right now i have decide to buy a digital camera for the first time with the price between 800-1500 dollar so that i have a few questions for you
1.can you recommend me a 4k best camera with this price including battery and lense(18-135mm)?
2.if not which one of the following camera is your best canon 80d(1080p+dual AF) vs lumix g80 (4k) and gh5 (4k) vs nikon d7500(4k) vs sony a7ii(full frame + 1080p)vs sony a6500(4k + 425 af)?
Note:-i need this digital camera for music clip production+photo studio work
Can you tell me Sony a 6500 is better or Canon 6D Mark II? I need a camera for both filming and photography but filming is my
first priority
Hey Tom! I'm from Toronto. You still here? Do you do any meet ups with other shooters? Thanks!
What's the best Color Mode Pro or S-Gamut3, for pos production on premiere?
How do i set up the a6500 to take photo timelapse with variable auto iso? When the app kicks in the camera locks on the first photo settings no matter what the camera settings are. It is impossible to shoot a photo timelapse in variable exposure scene(sunset/sunrise) with fixed settings. Thank you
Does any external monitor allow touchscreen functions? I use focus jumps heavily, and keeping this function active is vital. $600 for a monitor is a no go, but what about the 170 bucks option? Thx.
Ciao Tom, hai riscontrato anche tu il problema sulla luminosità del monitor che si riduce quando registri a 100p - 100M? Hai una soluzione in merito? Grazie
couldn't agree more with the cine 4 pro colour setting.
Dale Roossien how do you work around the lack of face detect AF when an external monitor is used? I didn’t even realize this was an issue until recently.
Cine2 is just as good, and I don't have to use ND filters as often. Especially if you adjust your knee settings correctly.
Hi Tom, very informative video. Could you please tell me if the profile you set up work on the Sony FS5? Thanks
Sajeev Raghavan thanks! Not sure if it works on the fs5 because I haven’t tried it on that camera
I have that same gimbal. Whenever I put in that position you have at :09, it doesn't like it and it will turn off the motors.
Nice bro
Hi there, so does the sony a6500 face recognition AF still works if record 4K internally / externally via monitor i.e atomos ninja v?
