I like the CDN $ price. Wonder if the asian prices will be lower.

Both are on the large size but both receive great reviews in general. I've thought about buying them for video as there was a sale on them a few months back where you could get both for ~$1800 I believe.Sigma has two interesting APS-C lenses; F1.8 50 - 100 and F1.8 18 - 35 that can be fitted to an E mount via the MC-11 adapter.
I have no APS-C lenses and am wondering how these would work on the A6500.
I noticed the size. The longer lens is about 3.5lbs. The max aperture is compelling for events and the APS-C 24Meg frame is reasonable for that kind of work.Both are on the large size but both receive great reviews in general.

Interesting read, thanks for the link :thumbup:A review with a long list of suggestions to improve (A6700?) from a sony tester:
http://pmrphoto.blogspot.nl/2016/10/first-review-of-new-sony-a6500-a6300-on.html
And 2 of his 10 suggested improvements won't need an A6700, since the first is asking for similar capabilities in an A7 body and further down he is suggesting a list of new lenses in E-mount.Patrick Murphy-Racey said:The verdict? The A6500 is a miniature BEAST of a camera, extremely responsive, fast in every way, and perfect for shooting sports. To use an old car term, it's "a wolf in sheep's clothing." It is by far the best sports action E-Mount camera Sony has made to date.
At first, you might think it's just a rebadged A6300. Same chip, same megapixels, same fps, same old story as Canikon, as they so often a couple small improvements to the same old cameras and call them new. Not so with the A6500.
