Camera Comparison

Sony NEX-6 vs. Sony A55

at 18mm.
Wide Angle - Low light shot - F13 - lowest ISO - Exposure +2/3
 
Comparison by Sinan Ozturk   
Same shot is taken with Samsung NX300(+Samsung 18-55 kit lens), Sony A55 (+Tamron 17-50 2.8 len) and Sony NEX 6 (+Sony 16-50 Lens).

Cameras are on tripod and since its pretty dark inside, I set +2/3 exposure compansation in all cameras. Aperture is F13, focal length widest in all used lenses (16-18mm) and ISO is also lowest in all cameras which is ISO100 for Nex and A55 and ISO200 for Samsung NX300.

Obviously Samsung is the clear winner of this test. Its exposure is very accurate while Sony NEX6 and Sony A55 produced dark photos despite the positive exposure compansation.
