We've got boots on the ground at Sony's a6600 and a6100 launch event in New York City, and are fast at work getting some impressions of Sony's new duo of APS-C cameras. Check out the updated designs and new features here.

Sony's just announced the a6600, a flagship 24MP APS-C camera with in-body image stabilization, Real-time Tracking autofocus - including eye-detection in video - and a larger Z-type battery.

Sony has introduced the a6100, a low-priced APS-C E-mount camera that will slot in-between the a6000 and a6400. It's essentially an a6400 with a lower resolution EVF, smaller ISO range and no Picture Profiles. Otherwise, expect a 24MP sensor, Real Time Tracking AF, a tilting LCD and 4K/30p video capture.

Sony has unveiled two new APS-C lenses at an event in New York today: the E 16-55mm F2.8 G and E 70-350mm F4.5-6.3 G OSS. The 16-55mm F2.8 is slated to arrive in October for $1400; the 70-350mm ships in November for $1000.

Both the EOS 90D and EOS M6 Mark II have the same sensor and processor, and they shoot similar burst speeds and 4K video. In this case, it's really what's on the outside that counts.

DPReview TV brings you our first-day impressions of Canon's new EOS M6 Mark II and EOS 90D, straight from Canon's launch event.

The EOS M6 Mark II renews Canon's commitment to making small, enthusiast-friendly APS-C mirrorless cameras. With 4K video, 30 fps Raw bursts and additional controls, it's a big step forward from its predecessor. And perhaps more interesting than the EOS 90D.

The 90D is essentially the DSLR version of the EOS M6 Mark II mirrorless camera that was introduced alongside it. Like the M6 II, it features a 32MP sensor, Dual Pixel AF, fast burst shooting and 4K/30p video capture. It will be available mid-September.

In this short video we tell you about the most important features on the new Canon EOS M6 Mark II.

From the outside, the EOS M6 II looks like a relatively minor update. But what's not immediately obvious is that Canon's been awfully busy making updates under the hood. We dig in and take a closer look.

The Canon 90D is here and it offers a nice set of upgrades over its predecessor, including a new sensor and processor, the addition of 4K capture, expanded AF capability and an AF joystick. Here's our hands-on impressions.
