I've owned an A6700 since last September when I traded in my A6600. I think your review is fair. I shoot mostly wildlife and astro stills but very little video so those negatives you identified don't bother me. For photography, I think the image quality is superb as is the autofocus - the eye tracking is amazing. For my astro photos I have in the past used an external intervalometer, eg: to get a sequence of shots of say 90s each. Unfortunately, since Sony adopted the USB C connector for the A6700, I've not been able to find a compatible intervalometer. The built in one works fine, but only for exposures up to 30s. Bulb mode does allow exposures greater than 30s but not with the intervalometer - this is very annoying! Nevertheless, I'm very glad I bought the A6700 - I think it'll be with me a long time. I also have the Sony 11mm f1.8, 16-55mm f2.8 and 70-350mm lenes, which I think are all superb.
How much it is ?
How it works for wildlife? Have you tried it with small birds?
@@jordiolbe I think it works very well. With small birds like Blue Tits the autofocus locks on to the eye very reliably.
I am about 30 days into my a6700. This is my first APC and so far, fantastic! I love having the smaller camera for my fun. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the review - i recently got the Sony A6700 and your videos have been great explaining things - thank you sir!!
It's a nice camera. Would love to see you make more tutorial videos. 👍
Having my A6700 since August and i'm still very happy with it. I also enjoy your A6700 already from the start. Great photos, especially your military aviation photos of the F15 Eagles and the F35!
Thank you, I still love the idea of a small camera like this but the more of these I watch the more I think this isn't for me. You've saved me a lot of cash!
Thanks for the honest review!
I was very interested in this camera, I used to have the a6600 and ZV-E10, but unfortunately Sony hasn’t improved or just barely improved the stabilization, which is a deal breaker IMO. Maybe the ZV-E10 Mark II will come with the same Dynamic Stabilization as in the ZV-E1.
Please make a video explaining SnQ mode settings on a6700.
Please what lens do you recommend, for this camera. The goal is to create content and photograph the family.
Great video TCM. I agree with all you say about the A6700. I've had mine for a couple of months and it continues to amaze and delight. Yes, you pointed out the faults, mine has overheated a couple of times. Mind you I was recording in 32 degree heat!!! I absolutely LOVE it and the autofocusing is unbelievable. I also love all the images you showed. Can you tell me which zoom lens you used for the jet in the air shot? Thanks mate.
Hey Bill hope you are doing well.! The lens is the 70-350mm Sony. 🙂
@@TheCameraManReviews Yes, all well here. Hope it's the same with you. The lens will be worth looking into, thanks for the info.
Love the tiger!
The Tiger is fantastic!
I've had this camera since November (upgraded from an a6500) and I think your review is pretty spot on. I only use it for video occasionally, so the overheating issue wasn't a deal breaker. The big "miss" for me was the omission of an anti-dust shutter. How difficult would it have been to have the shutter close while the camera is powered down? I would have preferred this over some of the video features, but I can understand why they prioritized video given the current market, where content creators are drivers of sales. Otherwise I am somewhat dubious about the battery. I might have been sold a dud, but it seems to drain very quickly. Charging is awful, and it blows my mind a method of charging more quickly wasn't considered or included. These are minor quibbles over what is otherwise a terrific camera, and I am extremely happy with my purchase. The upgrades to the body and features for photography might seem minor vs the a6500, but I find the improved ergonomics, the improved sensor and the switch to USB C and UHS-II (sd card) are enough that I feel like I got a good upgrade over the older model. How someone would feel coming from an a6600 - probably not enough change to warrant the switch.
If you shoot video it's a big upgrade from the A6600. Photography really hasn't the same upgrade needs as video but the low light capability for photos on this is also big step up.
Thank you for this review.
one question.
Which camera has better focusing system and better dynamic range? Sony a6700 or Canon R8?
Do you have experience? Thank you
Sorry to say I have no experience with the Canon R8. Good luck and let me know what you choose!
Fuji Xs20 vs Sony a6700 which one is good in overall terms?
When paired with a lens with oss would stabilization be better? What lens were you using? I just upgraded from the kit lens to the 18-105. Absolutely love this camera. It’s my first.
Emm, it may offer a slight improvement but unnoticeable. I have the 18-105 and the stabilization inside that lens is good, but you will still need a gimbal.
@@TheCameraManReviews even using my 6700 you think I would still need a gimbal?
Depends on what you plan on doing. I have the same set up and some shots I get look like they were shot on a tripod, but if you plan on walking or moving, then you’re going to need a gimbal.
@@49erfan916 I actually just returned that 18-105 I didn’t find it very sharp. I’m waiting on my tamron 17-70 to show up.
@@SlammedCanada the 17-70 is a very sharp lens, you won't be disappointed!
Very interesting video. If someone already has a Sony 6000 series camera, which ones would you say that the upgrade to the A6700 is worth it?
That a very good question, I have had pretty much all the 6 series Sony cameras and loved them all.
Dam that is a tough one to answer, as the image quality is so good from all of them IMO. The only ones I have kept are the 6600 & 6700, I sold my 6400 2 months ago. So I would have to say, if you have the Sony a6400, the Sony 6700 is the next step.
I had the Sony A6600 and upgraded to the A6700 and I'm so glad I did. It's worth it for the image quality the ability to record 10 bit footage and last but not least, the AI autofocusing
@@WilliamHenryAlbert I have the A6600 but I mainly take photos of buildings and don’t take videos. I don’t think the upgrade is worth it, for me.
@@yellit1975 Yes absolutely, you are right. Definitely not worth the upgrade if you are not into videography.
No more overheating issues since the firmware update. Well done Sony 👍
I have been using Nikon D5300 from the last 8 years. Now I am planning to change my camera. So please suggest should I go for Sony A6700 or the Sony A7C or the Nikon Z6ii?
That is a very tough question, I have no expereince with the latest Nikons, but unless it is the Sony A7Cii then the Sony a6700 is better, have you considered the Sony a7iv?
@@TheCameraManReviews No, not A7iv. I want to go with latest camera model. Also, I don't have budget for Sony A7Cii. If given choice between A7C or A6700, considering the photography capabilities rather than video capabilities, what would you suggest?
@@shreyas_india I have both them exact cameras and If i had to choose one, it would be the 6700.
is there not a update for the overheating ? from Sony ? nice pictures i like the plains
They did release an update which gave it some extra run time, but not eliminated the over heating completely.
I’ve only had mine for a few weeks and haven’t experience any overheating yet. Gets a little warm but nothing serious.
@@SlammedCanada did you try it For taking a video 4k 60fps for 30 minutes and see it will overheat or not ?
have we had it that long already
You should do a comparison with the Osmo Pocket 3. It's half the price of the A6700 but it seems video quality is on par!
I have both, totally different usage. Pocket 3 has zero dof, good for travel, A6700 speed , handling and quality is on another level.
@@replay0712 I was asking for the quality difference? Seems many UA-camrs think both cameras have similar output?
@@Burzcasts Define quality. There are a few aspects to it.
can you make more videos about dji osmo action 3? because I dont know how to use it
from a6000 to a6700, grip, battery life, af, video is a lot better but a lot heavier and bulkier.
I come from the 6000, which I had from its first year out, directly to the 6700.
Is it worth it…. I was pretty satisfied for a long while with the 6000 and managed some great pictures out of it. But often frustrated by the noise. I have a nice range of Sony lenses meanwhile, some fast ones, 70-350, 200-600… But in comparison, the 6700 will knock your socks off. The sensor is so much better in terms of image quality, color rendition, and low light performance, the IBIS advantage, the incredible autofocus. On the 6000 I always had the impression I could do better manually than the autofocus, in all sorts of shots. The 6700 autofocus is just unbeatable. The new menu system offers so many additional features, setting options. I also bought the Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 with it, since I only read excellent reviews. It’s a top-lens and the perfect travel combo. I must say I’m not much into video, mainly photography.
@@jefmertens5786 yeah this is what we pay for... the huge jump in performance. be it image quality or video resolution. AF upgrade itself is a no brainer upgrade. i still use my sigma 30mm f1.4 as my favorite lens.. also 70-350,11mm and my new vitrox 75mm f1.2. but still, i miss the small form of a6000 vs a6700. had to change buy new cam bag just to fit 2 lens.
No offense, but you don't know how to use the camera in video mode when walking.
