Although rumours suggested that Sony would also place its full-frame a99 (and RX1) sensor in the NEX series, the NEX-6 has arrived sporting a 16.1 million pixel APS-C CMOS sensor.
It's joined by a new Bionz processor and a fast hybrid AF system.
Sitting between the high-end NEX-7 and enthusiast level NEX-5R, the NEX-6 is designed to be aimed at traditional DSLR customers who are looking for high image quality in a much smaller body.
As such, it includes an (electronic) viewfinder, and direct access dials to key camera parameters.
There's also Wi-Fi functionality, which ties into Sony's recently announced PlayMemories apps service, which allows for expansion and customisation of the camera via downloadable apps which will be available later in the year.
A new 16-50mm power zoom lens has also been announced in conjunction with the NEX-6. This is roughly half the size of the standard 18-55mm kit lens which has accompanied NEX cameras until now.
With an RRP of around £810 ($1,140) or £830 ($1,135) with the kit lens, the NEX-6 competes with cameras such as the Panasonic G5 and perhaps the Olympus OM-D.
