Grip:
The bigger grip is a great bonus for this camera. Since sony has changed the battery, you get a deep and comfortable grip to hold.

It's a great update for vloggers who need to take some selfies and film themselves.
But the problem is you are unable to use the tilting screen if you mount a mic on it. To solve that, you can buy accessories.

ISO:
Iso range has been increased slightly to 32000, and expendable to 102100. The A6600 performs extremely well in low light.Noise is well managed up to around ISO 6400, when it starts to become evident even at relatively small sizes, such as A4; However, if you're sharing images online via social media, even images shot at ISOs as high as 25600 can be usable; we'd suggest avoiding ISO 51200 and higher unless you're absolutely desperate, though.
Autofocus:
