For all those undecided - the a6700 is a beast. Sony took the best of the fx30 and a7IV, then added new firmware and a new AI processor with features from cinema line cameras. It's unbelievable what they did for this price. I mainly use it to shoot video, the quality of the recordings exceeded my wildest expectations for an APSC sensor. A6700 - Tamron 17-70 - Sigma Trio - Sirui Anamorphic - Weebil 3S - Rode VideoMic is everything you need for semi-professional work.

$800 Price difference. I bought a A6700 and used the remaining to invest in a good lens. A6700 is a beast! Best APS-C camera ever!

As an APSC Shooter This video sold me on the a6700. As much as I think the full frame setup is great I just don't think its needed for most common small youtubers on a budget. Thanks for this comparison video! Very well done!

[asiadmajeed]

Hi brother. I don’t have any of this cameras. I enjoy your videos so I watched it anyway.

Feedback, the only thing I can say is a great video. It comes across very clearly that your data/test/thoughts comes from real world experiences not just reading off a chart and comparing numbers.

Kudos for keeping genuine 🫡

I have A6700 and this is fantastic crop sensor camera! Great balance between take photo and videos. And I really love your review! Your color still so beautiful

1) Overheating is a non-issue, if you buy one of those magnetic i-phone coolers (or the Tilta cage with fan.
2) chosing the right lens negates the slo-mo crop, like the Sony 11mm f1.8. This lens also works on full frame cameras, if you activate the lowest stabilization setting.
I had 3 full frame cameras and eventually decided full frame isn't worth carrying a much bigger, heavier bag.

[jntechreview]

I usually use my camera for filming tech gadgets. The shallow depth of field of a full frame can sometimes be a con when I want to shoot the whole product in focus.
Yes, I can just crank up the f stop value, but then I would need more light to remain at the same ISO.
For a crop sensor, I can keep more layers in focus at lower f stops, allowing me to have more room to adjust my ISO.
I know it's a niche situation, but I'm perfectly happy with my A6700
Oh, and it's hard to mount a full frame camera + bright zoom lense on a consumer level gimbal too

❤ this video. Now I can justify my purchase for the a7cII as my second camera . Already have the a6700 and it’s a great camera. Appreciate the in depth review and comparison.

Dude no BS, im newer to photography and videography, but you have made the learning curve almost non existent, im consistently putting out content ( photo and video * some video not on my channel yet*) that i am extremely happy with.

Getting into photography and video was extremely daunting task to undertake, especially since I am a notorious perfectionist. I have gotten so much value from your channel !

[margaretisolan]

After using the zv e10 for around 2 years I can say, for the most people APSC is more than enough. Would I like to have a FF instead? Sure. But it is so much more expensive and nowadays with Software you can achieve the same look.

[alexanderkasperovich]

The big advantage of A7C2 in video is the possibility to use APS-C lenses with wider field of view. Sigma 16 mm + Active stab + 1.15 Cleaimagezoom make a kind of 20 mm F1.4 lens.

[NormanRabaya]

Just got my a6700 a few days ago. The crop factor and the 120fps were what won me over. No-brainer for me. I'll get a full-frame if sony comes up with an a7siv or zv-e1 mk2 🎉 thanks for the comparison!

[Jamesmatthews]

12:28 Bro you killed me 😆 Great video and breakdown of both cameras 👌🏻

[jimsowter]

Great content Sean!! I recently got the a6700 and really loving the camera. I was a little worried about the overheating, but got the Ulanzi cooling fan which just clicks in the back, and all has been fine so far! The biggest thing I haven't had much luck with is using SLOG3 indoors, in terms of nailing the exposure and not having quite a lot of noise (at ISO 800).

[kenrickhadley]

Sean i like that statement about full frame feel. It's like wearing a Swiss watch compared to a Japanese movement, they are both capable of telling time. In our minds we feel like a million bucks with that Swiss watch on.

[JaylenSmokey]

I don't own a camera, I don't know anything about photography or videography but the way you explain things and all that, I feel like you should have at least 300k-400k Subs.

I own the A7Cii for backup/travel/video to my main A7RV. The 6700 is a great entry to the Sony eco-system and would make a nice camera instead of the A7Cii with less expensive lenses and even more compact combo. I'm standardized on FF; so the A7Cii was a no question. Lastly, I really like the aesthetics of the silver version!

[altynnazar]

It's a simple decision, if you have the budget for full frame camera and full frame lenses, get A7c2, if you have tigher budget you can get A6700 with lenses for the price of A7C2, you can actually get a used sigma trio and a6700 for the price of A7C2

[LarsBergan]

Dang! Another video to push ne closer to purchase a new camera.. A6700 for me though! Excellent video, good points and outstanding quality!

[davidbangean]

Incredible video my friend! Been looking for a b-cam for vids and I think I’ll be going with the 6700 bc of this video!

Appreciate the effort invested to provide us with such helpful and enjoyable content!
