Would anyone recommend this investment for an NEX6 for lanscape photography?

Absolutely yes. Sharp to the edges, etc. I've moved up to the Sony A7r and "full format" lenses because i was so impressed with NEX 6. I sold my Canon 5D III kit. I am waiting for the full frame E-mount so now have my Zeiss 12mm for sale on ebay. Good price!

Absolutely, I have a pair of NEX-6's and keep the 12mm mounted on one and use telephoto on the other. I shoot a lot of panoramas and the NEX-6 with this lens mounted on a mini-PanoFix, on a monopod is the best combination I have found for field work.

Definately yes. I have a Nex 7. Great colors. Vibrant. Very sharp center. Corners sharp by F4. Much much better then the SEL 16 with VCLU. I'm very happy with this lens. Field of view just right for my kind of area.

Absolutely. I shoot this frequently both on land and underwater on an NEX6. Phenomenal wide angle lens - great open and airy shots.

I think this is your best choice for landscape photography on a Nex-6 camera. The other option you have is the Sony 10-18 Wide Zoom. The image quality is not as good, but the lens does have OSS (image stabilization). Hope this helps...

N8TE - Thanks for the advice. I will look into the AF-S (especially the 70-300 VR) but it's good to know my old lens is still an option.

Absolutely fine.. It pairs with both my NEX-6 and NEX-7 (as well as my A7R & A7, of course ;) ) without a hitch. OSS will works as well as all the other controls. However - keep in mind, with any APS-C Sony E-Mount body, it will become a 105-300mm lens, which you probably knew...

There is an intervalometer app that may be purchased for the NEX 6 (I think around $10 - $15 ). I have not yet purchased it, but plan to in the near future (:

I use the MegaGear case on my NEX7, so I would imagine it would work fine with the NEX 6. It is a good case, and works with the kit lens, the wide angle lens, but not the 200mm telephoto. it is weathertight, which is what I mainly wanted, and you can either let the lens cover hang, or remove it very easily. Good case. Does what was promised. ps the strap they provide is worse than the original. I stayed with the original.

Sorry, I have no experience with the A6000 .. I would think it would work fine since it is for the Nex cameras.

This is compatible with A-Mount cameras. I believe the Nex-6 is e-mount. So you would have to get an A-mount to E-mount adapter. Be aware of the type of adapter you get if so you don't lose auto focus. Hope this helped you.

I've used it on the Nex 6 and focus peaking as well as release shutter without lens works just fine. Best bet is to use aperture priority mode.

If the powered 18-200mm servo lens is anything to go by, every model with NEX in its name will work with the lens as far as zoom, OS and AF are concerned. Full-frame models like the 7r will know to crop it since this is an APS-C lens. I would expect most models to require a firmware update for in-camera image correction (I don't know when that's coming).

Can't answer the question. I have no experience with 3rd partyl lens or Nex 6. I have Nex 7 and the A7r.

I have the Nex 6 and I cannot tell any difference between this EVF and that on the NEX 6 - including in low light.

I think it would work great for that. The optics are amazing...I took it on a safari and got some amazing photos. The only concern I could potentially see you having is the stop if you are shooting indoors. They make one that opens up further, however it is nearly double the price. I don't typically shoot low light, so I can't give you any advice here. I found it to be a pretty incredible lens.

Sigma also makes compatible and good but much less expensive e mount lenses for the NEX / alpha cameras. Worth a look. I think those are called DN lenses. Also if you have an old film camera like ones that take Canon FD lenses, you can buy an inexpensive adapter top use those old lenses on the a6000 in manual focus mode using the focus peaking assistance. Let's you save money and get great old fast (f1.8 to f2.8 range) glass for your camera that would cost $600-9000 in a Sony mount.

Sony is in the process of introducing a new Nex7, so this might be the old Nex7. I do think the bundle is a pretty good deal. I can't imagine how they could have improved the picture capabilities of the camera to be quite honest. I just got back from a vacation where I took 2000+ pictures. The camera is flat out tremendous. The best I have ever used and I have had 10 slr's dating back to the early '70s of both 35mm and digital.

My NEX didn't come with an SD card and I don't know what, if any, small onboard storage exists. I would recommend an SD card no smaller than 8GB so you can really take a lot of photos and not worry about what you're going to do with them. Also, if you're going to shoot RAW, consider going at least 16GB as you'll fill up your card even quicker.

No to my best knowledge NEX7 and 6 have same mount use Sigma 19mm F2.8 EX DN-Sony E 440965

Brad answers. . . As long as your nex6 has the "E-mount" style lens mounting compatibility, which I believe they do, then this lens cap system is the proper style. Your nex6 very likelycame with an 18-55 standard lens, (or something very similar), and will display "E-mount" insmall white letters adjacent to a small white plastic dot used to align the lens to the camerabody. If it says e-mount, then THIS IS THE PROPER PRODUCT ! Mine is an Nex5, but I believeall the nex series using e-mount lenses are inter - compatible, and this should work for you. Brad answers. . .
