Sony a6000 cameras have long been the brand’s more affordable, compact alternative to the single-digit full-frame mirrorless models. But, more than ten years after the Sony APS-C camera lineup shifted from the NEX name to the a6000, the series is running out of numbers to dole out.
The Sony A6400, launched in 2019, is now more than six years old. Past naming patterns indicate that a successor to the Sony A6400 would be named the Sony A6500…except Sony already has an A6500. The Sony A6500 was released in 2016 as an upper-tier model. It was later outpaced by the Sony A6600 and now the Sony A6700.
