Anyone still tempted to buy the Sony A6700?

[megadarren]

E is reviewing this from a sports videographer's perspective (which is why we came here) and his point is on the money. If you plan to film a lot of 4k120 then get the FX30, period. But if you are a hybrid shooter, or a sports shooter who doesn't always need 4k120 then the a6700 is a great...maybe best, option!

[caheskey]

That is not how heat dissipation works. Also ambient temperature will play a huge part in how much heat a device outputs, humidity too. Any workload that doesnt stress the cooling system to its maximum will by default keep the ability of the device to keep working, if the heat produced is greater than the dissipation then you get into overheating issues. Most channels ive seen that reviewed the a6700 found no overheating in 4k24/30/60, only in 4k120. PetaPixel seem to be one of a few that had different results. In the sony menus you can change the overheat temperature, maybe in their tests they hadn't done that. Anyway, as a hybrid camera it still seems like a pretty decent product.

what lens did you use? 70-200 or anything else?

[carmelobanados]

My use is mostly photography with occasional video so the A6700 suits my purpose. I have a Sony A7RII that I use mostly for landscape photography. My old trusty A6000 has been my hiking/backpacking/street photography camera. So the A6700 is a long overdue and worthwhile upgrade. It will do everything that my old A6000 did but better with regards to AI autofocus/better ergonomics with the new front dial and full touch menu plus give a significant upgrade for video and vlogging use. I think Sony did enough of an upgrade and kept the size of the camera small and the price down to keep a lot of Sony shooters who mainly do photography in the Sony ecosystem satisfied with the value of this update. You do make a good point regarding the overheating especially in 4k 120p so yes the FX-30 is a more suitable APSC video camera for sports. Since most of the heat is generated by the battery, I wonder if using a dummy battery connected to a USB-C power bank will extend the recording time in 4K 120p🤔

What about the ulanzi fan with the 6700

[DANIELPTFITNESS]

Thank you! In order to be able to film without any overheating struggles I will defenilty go for FX30 with the active cooling! Have fun and good luck with you shooting✌️

[nathanealhuley]

Absolutely! I have far too many APS-C lenses not to and already have the FX30. It’s primary function will be still photography and backup video in a pinch. Appreciate the heads up though.

[_mariochristopher]

Finally! An honest informed review. I’ve been wondering about this since it came out and you perfectly answered my question. Another awesome video! Love your channel!

[sumitino]

why is your audio so good on the walking talking shot on the pitch? what did you use?

[philpritchard]

dude, how do you focus on the players moving so fast and changing directions, also tripod, monopod or hand held? be good to know focus settings and aperture?

[cadson]

is the zve-10 still a reliable budget starter camera, and should I buy the sony 18-105 f/4 with it?

[philipcunio]

Yes, l bought it, and I don’t care about the fan! If I did, I’d buy the camera that has a fan. I think it is a great wildlife camera, cropped for extra distance but still with 27 megapixels, excellent AI autofocus for animals and birds taken from A7RV(at a 60% discount), light and portable rig with the Sony 150-400 GM or the 200-600 G and a 1.4 or 2.0 teleconverter. Different cameras for different uses.

[neilgiesen]

when there is written 30 minutes of recording time, does it mean that it was one 30 minute video that was filmed which caused it to overheat ?

[hectorsalcedo]

What if you add something like the Ulanzi camera cooling fan?

[IMDABROWN]

I normally agree with you or follow your advice. I see the a6700 as a good camera to have when you don't pack an FX camera or you want something smaller than a7 style camera. Or you are shooting with your FX30 and something goes wrong or and you have a small a6700 in you pocket/bag to keep you going until you can resolve the your FX30 issues. Everything you said it 100 if you are making it a primary camera for sports, but as an everyday camera or backup its a good affordable option.

[diesolit]

Amazon video man, but i want to do vlogs, fitness content and film car videos, been thinking about the fx30 would that be a better choice for my situation?

[geotid]

What do you shoot on because your colors are very vivid

[eugenemsuya]

The Footage is fire man, I have a question though, forgetting the recording times, on a scale of 1-10, how good is the a6700 footage compared to this fx30 footage?

[naseeb]

Isn't it how every camera is though? Once they overheat, they need to cool off before being able to shoot again.

And I agree with the fx30. That is significantly a better video camera. a6700 is mainly for hybrid shooters that mainly shoots photos. a6700 is perfect for me, I like to shoot photos and shoot some videos as well.
I intend to get the fx30 later if I ever get into videography. For learning and testing the waters, a6700 is more than enough.
