The Sony a6700 - 1 year review

Gear used to make this video (affiliate):

I upgraded to the A6700 from the Sony A6500, which I used to make four corporate videos and two short films with, and they all looked great! The A6700 is a very competent little camera, fabulous images and shoots great video. I use it going for walks in the country shooting pictures, and in a rig, with gimbals, external monitors for short narrative films and it is brilliant for both.

Just bought one and I'm loving it for casual photos and videos

It's the perfect camera for me. As an actor I could easily just use my iPhone for self tapes, but this combined with a sigma 18-30 on the sigma adapter produces beautiful 4k 24p images, with none of that digital over sharpening, plenty of bokeh, flawless autofocus, and it still looks great when exported to a 1080p mp4. I can also use it as really great stills camera AND if I want to shoot my own short films or even produce YouTube content at some stage in the future - this camera does it all without breaking a sweat. All that, with cheaper APSC lenses, cheaper SD cards instead of Cfast AND it's compact and lightweight means for anyone who ISN'T a professional videographer, this is probably the best pound for pound camera out there. I was waiting for the ZV-E10 II to drop but I got impatient and picked this up in pristine second hand condition for £1100 and considering the ZV-E10 II is basically £1000, I think I made the right choice!

This is a camera I would recommend for all beginners who are not budget-conscious. Great for both photography and video with class leading autofocus, also weather sealed!

Great points in the video! I bought the a6400 almost a year ago (Upgrading from Nikon 5100), and it's great for photos, but now I'm wishing that I spend a bit extra to buy a used a6700 instead for 10-bit video and flip out screen.

“The single most important component of a camera is the twelve inches behind it.” – Ansel Adams A timeless quote and one that I think applies well.

I got the A6700 About month ago. I wouldn't say I'm a pro nor an ameture, however, if you get a really good lens, with will easily do all the gigs you're throwing at it. I was thinking of getting the A7C II or the A7 IV but their price is kinda too much, this camer brings everything in the middle ground while having the best price for a camera with these specs

I have A6700 with sigma 18-50 f2.8 and also Tamron 70-180 f2.8 G2 and i love it

Switch the Auto Power OFF Temp options to high. It will tolerate higher temps moving forward.

Great video. Considering upgrading from my a6000. I use to be a canon guy but got my hands on the a6000 and i love it. I think the upgrade would be worth it. The issue I have with the a6000 is low light and the menu system. I understand that has been improved a lot.

Thanks for the video. I really enjoy your take about if enjoying cameras that are not brand new and have the highest specs. It's all about enjoying the process :)

I am a full time headshot & portrait photographer and shoot Fujis. Been Fuji since 2018, but I’ve been shooting for decades. I made the mistake of trying this camera out and shooting with it a bit. It’s insanely good. I’m gonna sell my Fuji gear and buy this and a bunch of primes.

[thelocalfilmpro]

Yea I literally upgraded from this to the a7cii and regretted it the form factor of this cam and apsc lenses are absolutely second to none . I ended up selling the a7cii I use my fx3 for pro work and plan to get the a6700 again

[myblujl]

Purchased it just as it released to replace my A6600, and its been a rock-star ever since. Sigma 18-50 is a great lens for this light/compact body.

Got it. is not considered a professional camera but has professional photo and video capabilities, perfect👌 😉

I am a wedding videographer that shoot panasonic, However I get asked to help as 2nd shooter, my question is 4k 25p for ceremony speeches....broll 100fps will always be a B-Cam would you recommend?

[meetgabriel]

Just buy it, this is the one. No regrets for beginners. I’m keeping this one for a while, no need to upgrade.

[jntechreview]

I bought one last year too. Best purchase ever
