CORRECTION NOTE: I managed to delete a text overlay that pointed out the A6600 has in body stabilisation and eye AF in video, both of which are slight differences to the A6400, but otherwise the comparison to the A7C is similar. Thanks for watching, like, subscribe and let me know thoughts in the comments:)
I just upgraded from an A6100 to the a7C and like anyone who has seen a Michael Jackson music video during Halloween, I'm thrilled. Catalyst Browse is phenomenal and just down right mind blowing. I got the 28-75 f2.8 Tamron and it's my new favorite lens.
I love the analogy (as you might expect 😂) and awesome to hear about the upgrade. I’m a big fan of catalyst too - really flexible and powerful once you’re used to it. You might know it already but there’s some catalyst tips I collated a few months back which may be helpful:ua-cam.com/video/RB-tWQxzQoM/v-deo.html Have fun shooting with that excellent setup:) Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👍
To me, I think the Tamron 17-70 really raised the bar for APS-C, and especially the a6400. Having that fixed 2.8 at such a focal zoom range is really a game changer for cropped sensor cameras. Also, the ISO capabilities of the a6400 is pretty damn good, too, and so..... I often struggle with upgrading, but I am never unhappy with the results of what I am shooting, and so... I'm sure at some point I'll upgrade, but probably not because I really need to. ;) It never ends.
Hey Rock, thanks for sharing the great insights:) That Tamriel is definitely on my wish list when funds allow - I hear the stabilisation is good too which is important for me. I’m working on a low light comparison of the zv-e10 and a6400 now and it’s interesting to see the high iso performance as I’m running tests! As always, if your current gear is working well then upgrades might be nice, but wait a bit longer and there’s probably a bigger upgrade coming:) As you say, it never ends 😂 Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👏
Hey Molly, great to hear from you as ever:) Sounds like your use case is similar to mine: the a6400 gets a lot less use since the a7c arrived 😆 I’m not ready to part with mine yet though - having 2 bodies is genuinely useful a lot of the time and it’s cool to have a body with no stabilisation for testing purposes. But otherwise I think I’d have followed your example 😆
@@Iamfiance56 yes for sure! I can see the quality difference in all my videos :) I’m usually do on the go vlogs so I “smooth” my footage using the catalyst browse app but I love the quality! Works great with the Sony 20mm 1.8 lens too. I posted vlog with that combo.
i know this is pretty late. But do you feel any different with the viewfinder, ive heard the viewfinder magnifier are much smaller on a7c and if so does that make a huge difference or slightly bad/good
Excellent video! Just got the a7C and have been comparing it to the a6400, so your video coming up in the algorithm confirms UA-cam is actually psychic 😵💫
Haha - crazy timing:) Thanks Ben, great to hear from you and very much appreciate the nice words:) Congrats on your new purchase too, hope you have fun shooting! I think the a7c is pretty great as probably gathered 😆 Take care and have a great day dude 👍
Couldn’t agree more man. I admit I wondered about the full frame hype a bit before I jumped on board but I’m very happy with my investment. I also think the colour science has improved a bit since the a6400. Both the a7c and zv1 are a little more pleasing to me. Would love to be able to justify getting an a7s3 and playing round with the cinetone profile but that ain’t happening any time soon 😆
@@dbvares8745 agreed, the color differences are subtle but something about the a7C to me looks more “natural” and barely needs any color grading out of the box. It’s magic! Just subbed btw!
That’s awesome man! I’m a big fan of HLG and once I’ve mapped that to standard dynamic range I barely touch grading most of the time - are you using any of the picture profiles? And welcome on board! Awesome to have you and look forward to more insightful chat 💪
Very good point Hitch, a much more useful and readily available connection! Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have an amazing day 👍
Not a fan of comparing such a wide price gap. We're talking about 2 very different price points. With 1 being a hybrid apsc and the other being a hybrid full frame. We're asking if you should buy a really good hobby camera or a professional entry to mid-level camera. Maybe looking at it as a one-time buy and keep for 10 years. I can see the a7c being a good option. But if you factor in the much much higher cost of the body and the higher price lens. You'd come out much better with the A6400. I think it would have been better to compare the a6600 here. And even then it would be hard to justify going to the a7c unless you plan to make a living with it. Maybe an A7iii would make for a better comparison for the class of camera that the a6400 or a6600 are.
Bought the A7C as a B camera to my a7Siii and I LOVE IT!! Great autofocus and low-light so I can push my ISO a lot higher. Takes great photos too! I immediately bought the SmallRig cage with the amazing silicone handle and it is WAY MORE COMFORTABLE to grip now. Used is on a tripod wide shot on a big choir festival while I did run and gun with my A camera. Same colour science so no colour matching to do. Highly recommended!!!
"Like Elton John in the '70s, let's consider how cool our lens options are." 🤣🤣🤣 Fantastic video. Shooting on an A6400 now and considering adding the A7C to the collection, so very helpful info.
Hey LWTB, really appreciate the kind words and really glad the content was helpful:) Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 💪👏
I wasn’t looking forward to a camera comparison video but you made it so entertaining and engaging! Thanks for the awesome comparison. Question- I already have an a6400 with a sigma 16mm 1.4. would it make sense to stay with this kit as a beginner youtuber and maybe invest in a drone or a gimbal for a better variety of shots instead of marginally improving the talking head shots with a small audience size?
Really appreciate the kind words Aparna:) I’d say the drone and gimbal would certainly give more radically different shot opportunities; whether that is the best fit for what you want to achieve compared camera/lens options is entirely up to you and what you want to create:) Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👍
Great video, thanks! I'm looking to buy my first proper camera but would prefer to stick to the APS-C lenses due to the lower price, size and weight. I was looking at the Sony A7c but would it make more sense to go for an APS-C camera like the Sony a6600, or does pairing an APS-C lens with a full frame camera still have its advantages?
Thank you for all the categories. Often the better bokeh is not mentioned but for me it is a key benefit of a full frame. Also being able to take photos in close circumstances (alle family members at the table) is often not possible with the crop of a APS-C.
Hey PL, my Jedi master, always great to hear from you mate. Agree about waiting for the autumn. I would not be surprised by either an a7iv or a full frame zv evolution of the a7c - either of which would be very interesting 🤔 Hope you’re doing well and having a great day 👏
Hello DB Vares, Love your channel. I have a question. I'm on a fence of buying a camera for my Casual Filmmaking and doing some videos on the go while I travel. Few years ago I purchased Panasonic Lumix G85 with kit lens, and returned it the next day, because the video quality was comparable, almost the same with my smartphone. So I want to risk again and try going with Sony, but I'm not sure what to choose. I love how you can get ultra-wide with FF A7C, and I don't seems to find a Speed Booster for the ZV-E10. So here are my options: 1) Get ZV-E10 with kit lens + Sigma 16mm 1.4 + Gimbal 2) Get A7C with kit lens and maybe a lens down the line. I shoot mostly videos, sometimes photos. As far as I know image quality between a6400 and ZVE10 is almost the same. What route would you recommend going? I know A7C is better camera, but is it $1,000 better? I want to keepy camera long-term, and I'm scared that If I purchase ZVE10 and Sigma Trio, they would be redundant when I decide to go FF because I think APSC is going to give me the same image I get on my Samsung Smartphone. And yes, you can use APSC lens on A FF, but what's the point if the FOV is narrow. Looking forward for your reply.
Hey iFA, thanks for the kind words and interesting Q. And apsc camera will destroy a smartphone for image quality and bokeh in many situations so I wouldn’t worry about that. Apsc isn’t far off full frame and has some advantages like price, lens size, weight etc I wouldn’t worry about zve10 becoming redundant you can use apsc lenses on full frame anyway so those won’t lose any utility. Generally camera gear holds some resale value so you’d always be able to get a reasonable chunk of cash back if choosing to upgrade later. So based on what you’ve said I think zve10 would be a good match for the use you describe:) Hope that helps! Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great weekend 💪👍
@@dbvares8745 thank you so much. I also noticed that Lumix G9 retails for $999 and GH5 for about $1,200. Do you think they would do much better than the ZV E10?
The main thing that I wanted to hear and watching this whole video was does both cameras do unlimited Record Times. I know the a6400 does, but does the a7c have that capability as well? If not, the a6400 wins hands down for video
Hey SBW, yep both have unlimited record time - I think you can see it in action if I remember correctly and there's a battery comparison in this vid. Your only limiting factors for recording time are SD card capacity and power availability:) Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you like the content and have a great weekend:)
Hey Scott, it won’t change the f stop directly, but will give bokeh closer to f2.7 as you say because the sensor size is just smaller than a full frame sensor. Hope that makes sense. Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👍
Hey Andrew, from memory I think it was iso2500 on the A7C at 1/50. Hope that helps:) Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great weekend 💪
Hey brother. I enjoy your videos and I'm subbed! There's a video I was watching about APSC, vs. full frame, medium frame, large frame, in a topic entitled "film making and it's history". The UA-camr talks about how relatively the APSC and Full Frame are not so different. Going to medium and large format. Now that's a drastic difference in size. I think the push to go the full frame route may be due to some camera manufacturers using marketing strategies. What do you think about that? Thanks for your videos!
Hey Francis, thanks for watching and sharing the genuinely intriguing question! I think it’s all relative. There will be people who create amazing content on smartphones-the nature of what they shoot means the constraint that make you or I want different cameras and lenses won’t impact them so what we see as upgrades wouldn’t impact their use case. Change what the creator cares about/notices/nature of what they make and aps-c could be perfect. Especially if low light or extra bokeh don’t matter too them. It’s all about where they feel constrained and if that sensor size doesn’t limit them then there’s no need to upgrade. Jumping to full frame is, as you say, quite incremental in some areas. However while the jump to medium format might be more significant it seems like the price of bodies, lenses, gimbals etc would be just as noticeable if not more so. Very simplistically a bigger sensor should help low light and bokeh amongst other things - I love shooting with both so I’d love to get some medium format gear one day - but I’d be lying if I said I felt constrained with full frame so there’s no urgency there for me - others could legitimately have a totally different perspective. As for marketing: definitely some truth there. A good business will always segment its products o reach as many people as possible in the market and the more you convince to upgrade over time the better so many will get things they like the idea of but maybe don’t fully utilise - I’m probably guilty of that with some stuff but I always try to grow into any gear I invest in 😆 Value wise full frame is definitely a jump - systems like Sony where lenses are usually across aps-c and full frame help a bit though. Plus for me I’d rather spend a bit more on an a7c than an a6600 to get the bigger sensor, catalyst stabilisation and flip screen. If the only difference were sensor size I might have made a different call. Anyway sorry for the stream of consciousness super long answer but there’s a few thoughts 😆 Let me know yours and any other Qs and thanks again for the fascinating topic 😁👍
@@dbvares8745 hey DB! Thanks for the response! The world of cameras and GAS (gear acquisition syndrome) is interesting! Hehe. I am definitely guilty of it. I do agree with you. I enjoy my full frame low light advantages and DOF. Definitely no mistake about that. You've got a great channel with unique insight and jokes and it isn't over the top. Keep it up brotha!
Thanks for the great video, can I ask for your advice? I am looking to get into wedding videography and need a camera, I want one that will last me a long time, I am thinking of getting the A7C with the kit lens for now and then upgrade the lens over time or getting the A6400 with a bit better lens from the word go? My current thinking is the full-frame allows for far better video quality potential down the line with quality lens whereas the A6400 has its limitations with the small sensor irrespective of the lens. Which would you suggest though?
Hey Robin, thanks for watching and the great question:) I’d say the benefits of full frame can get over emphasised sometimes. There’s definitely and advantage for bokeh and low light potential (both of which I love so full frame is my preference 😂) but it’s possible to get great images with either. However if you’re buying for the long term and you care about those things then full frame is the way to go. The bokeh especially can be confusing since the f number of a lens on a crop sensor is not equivalent to the same f number on full frame - ff will always give more blur: this is how I try to explain that factor: ua-cam.com/video/gxvFJgCxEQQ/v-deo.html I’d say the fact that full frame can use both its own and crop sensor lenses for video is another advantage which I use quite often. If you wanted a flexible zoom lens with the a7c you could consider something like the crop 18-105 which I get a lot of utility from, for instance: ua-cam.com/video/LQxEcfo4jW4/v-deo.html As for the a7c specifically I’d prefer that for weddings for a couple of reasons beyond sensor size: you get the fully articulated screen rather than a flip up screen. If you’re shooting high angle or portrait orientation shots it’s just waaaay better. You also get a larger battery which should be beneficial for longer shoots. You also get gyro stabilisation as an option, which you don’t with the a6400. For reducing reliance on a gimbal or smoothing handheld shots this is really great: some examples of how that works in practice here: ua-cam.com/video/RB-tWQxzQoM/v-deo.html Sorry for the long response but hopefully some thoughts that are helpful:) let me know any other questions, consider subbing if you like this sort of content and have an awesome day 💪👍
@@dbvares8745 thank you very much, definitely helped me a lot, in the beginning while the budget is tight - based on getting the A7C - would you suggest a Sigma f1.4 even though it is cropped, for the great low light ability and pair it with a zoom lens like the one you linked?
@@robinjonker11 I got the kit lens and it is great quality! Love it for me zoom lens for now and then I got the Sony 20mm 1.8 for on the go vlogging and LOVE it! Blown away by the quality of that camera/lens combo!
@@robinjonker11 using apsc lens on full frame will darken the corners of the photos and I wouldn’t have f1.8 still. Just as the zoom changes so does the f-stop
Thanks for your amazing video. What about the video recording limit for both cameras? You didn't mention this. I'm so curious to know about A7C's ability since I know A6400 can record videos more than 30 minutes up to 1h. So, can A7c do this? Thanks.
Hey Vahid, really appreciate you taking the time to share the nice feedback:) I can confirm both cameras have no recording limit. Your only limit is size of sd card and battery life:) When I did a 4k24fps battery test recently I got around 95 mins with the a6400 and 165 min with the a7c Hope that helps! Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👏👍
@@dbvares8745 Thanks for responding so quickly. As a matter of fact, I am interested in starting my own UA-cam channel but don't know what camera to get! In addition, in our country, prices are so high due to the low value of our currency. This means buying A7c, for me, will take a while to get the money. Accordingly, I would like to know if beginning with A6400 is a good idea or should I wait to buy A7c? Thanks again for your time.
Thanks for the extra info Vahid, that’s helpful in making suggestions:) I certainly don’t think you need something as capable and expensive as the a7c to just get started. If you want an interchangeable lens camera primarily for shooting video I’d actually recommend the Sony zv-e10; review here: ua-cam.com/video/LCCCYPIvMCg/v-deo.html And comparison with a6400 here: ua-cam.com/video/gWNkvIGQfBU/v-deo.html If you’re just looking for something simple, good quality and not too expensive to get started then the zv-1 is also worth a look. Comparison with a6400 here: ua-cam.com/video/D-PPIus5-DI/v-deo.html Hope that helps and if you have any Qs on those just leave a comment and I’ll get back to you. I don’t always get notifications for replies but I do for new comments 👍
Hey Ron, it does the job and works fine but isn’t anything special would be my summary. Definitely usable but not a selling point. Hope that helps:) Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a good day 💪
@@dbvares8745 The electronic viewfinder isn’t a strong point, either. Without a center hump like other A7 cameras, the EVF is pushed to the left corner. As a result, it’s small and lacks a decent-sized eyecup. The resolution is also not great at 2.36 million dots. It does improve on the A7 III’s EVF by doubling the refresh rate to 120 Hz, but because of the small size and wide magnification, it’s not as pleasant to use.
Same, though my a6400 is about to be sold since the zv-e10 replaced it. Both great cameras but was a choice that made sense since I shoot almost all video
Great question! so I’d say for a music video having a zoom lens which covers multiple focal lengths is probably going to be most helpful since you can get a variety of shots with one lens. From the ones I’ve tested I’d say the 18-105 is a good choice for crop or full frame bodies: ua-cam.com/video/LQxEcfo4jW4/v-deo.html And I haven’t tested too many full frame zoom lenses, but the A7C kit lens, 28-60, did a very solid job for video in my experience: ua-cam.com/video/5R5QZzRBwBI/v-deo.html Hope that helps and let me know any other Qs:) Thanks for watching and the kind feedback, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have an awesome weekend 💪👍
Hey Kev, really appreciate you taking the time to share such nice feedback:) Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 💪
Do you think I should get the m50 with the sigma 16 or the a6400 with the kit lens (for vlogs and talking head)? Also is it better when starting a UA-cam channel to spend more and get the a7c with the kit lens and zero other gear or the a6400 with the sigma 16 and some nice mics and lighting. I can stretch my budget to a maximum of 2100$ but I am kinda afraid of putting this amount into something idk nothing about and idk how to use cameras, this is why I asked about m50 or a6400 at first to keep it under 1000. What are your thoughts
Hey Georges, sorry for the slow reply-hectic times with day job and non YT life just recently 😆 So I’d definitely agree with keeping to a smaller budget until you’re confident in your understanding of cameras and techniques. Full frame stuff like the A7C is great but there will be plenty of people who don’t use the full potential of that kind of gear and are therefore better off saving money on something which will give equally nice results for their use case. I’d say in terms of end results for talking head: get audio sorted first; a cheap lavalier mic will be a solid start although a shotgun or condenser mic are also good. Again jumping to even cheaper options with these kinds of dedicated mics will be a big upgrade over the built in mics of a phone or camera, after that spending more for nicer mics will give less and less noticeable improvement so a good value dedicated mic is a nice balance for getting started. I’d then say some simple lighting and experiments with your space would actually be the next most noticeable thing to improve your video quality. I did an experiment using just a smartphone torch and some lighting techniques with results I liked a surprising amount: ua-cam.com/video/bNFSYdgmhV8/v-deo.html and a review of what you can do with one super cheap LED light here: ua-cam.com/video/tIFUPxvCtUY/v-deo.html As for gear: if your just doing talking head stuff I’d say an M50 with the sigma will give nicer visuals than the A6400 and kit lens. However from the little I know about the M50 I think it has a pretty significant crop when shooting in 4K, and not the greatest autofocus. I can’t remember for sure but there was a time where cannon cameras weren’t supporting shooting at 24fps either. The A6400 has none of these problems so could be a better option depending on your use case, especially if I’m right about that 4K crop. You could also consider the ZV1, which gives similar results to the A6400 with kit lens but has the advantage of great portability and a few extra features. I did a side by side of those here in case helpful: ua-cam.com/video/D-PPIus5-DI/v-deo.html Sorry for the super long answer but hopefully that helps! I’ve likely missed some points so let me know if you have any other Qs. Otherwise thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have an awesome weekend 💪👍
Personally, I don’t see the a7c being the winner in the category of lens options. There simply are more options in lenses for the APS-C bodies than for full frame bodies, when looking at compatible lenses which can produce images at the intended resolution for the respective body.
You can use emount apsc lenses on the a7c. And ff emount on a6400. So they actually have the same # of lenses. The difference is the sensor size giving the a7c a wider range of 'crop' especially in the ff lens dept
@@MrCowfood There are more options in lenses for a crop e-mount body than for a FF e-mount body, when looking at compatible lenses which can produce images at the intended resolution for the respective body. For example, either the APS-C Sony 50mm f1.8 OSS or the FE Sony 50mm f1.8 on the a6400 will produce the same angle of view and roughly a 24mp raw file. However, only one of these lenses will produce an image which utilizes the full intended resolution on the a7c; the crop mode will leave you with only about an 11mp file. Because of this drastic compromise in resolution, most working photographers and even hobbyists will not accept an APS-C lens as a compatible match for the a7c when shopping for available glass.
Hey both, thanks for the insightful comments and dialogue:) Daniel is right about being optimised for resolution from a stills photography perspective. The focus here (and across the channel) is mainly videography where the disconnect between 4K (and even 1080p) is already significant compared to the full stills resolution of both cameras / lens setups. For video I’ve struggled to notice any appreciable difference in 4K even on large displays when using lenses interchangeably between full frame and aps-c For photography I suspect the disconnect is more noticeable! From a video perspective I’ve therefore had a similar experience to Mr C where i get good results without any noticeable issues:) Thanks both for the input, consider subbing if you like this sort of content and have a great day 👍

Hey Doc, that depends entirely on what your use case is. The zv1 and a6400 definitely have some advantages vs the m50 but if what you have already is working well for you then it’s important to work out what the upgrade would achieve. What are you shooting most and what are the constraints you’re finding with the m50? A bit more info and I can give some more useful thought:) Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👍
@@dbvares8745 Hey, thanks for the quick reply. Foremost I use the M50 to shoot some Shortfilms and Vlogs. For me the disadvantages of this Camera are in first place the cropping in 4K and there aren’t as many lens options as there are for the Sony a6400. The only „problem“ with the a6400 is that there isn’t any Image stabilization, but I own a DJI RSC2 which is a very good Gimbal. Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹
Ah thanks Doc, that makes a lot of sense. For me I’d say the a6400 is a great shout if you get a lot of use from interchangeable lenses and don’t mind a gimbal setup when vlogging. If you don’t need quite as many looks the zv1 could be an even better option: more compact, better stabilisation including with gyro data and a more versatile flip screen. Plus neither have the 30 min record limit I believe the m50 has which would drive me crazy 😂 So I’d say either a6400 or zv1 could be a god choice with the importance of lens selection and portability probably being the key decider between the two. Hope that helps and let me know if you end up grabbing one:)
Hey Daxter, always pp10, HLG3 mapped into standard Dynamo range through rec.2020 colour space override. I really like that look so most often don’t do any colour grading. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👏👍
It's crazy how he's trashing the a6400 and it's better than ALOT of camera that's on the market now. But as long as he's a Sony guy I can't complain lol
Hey Hagaishi, no trashing here - the a6400 is a great option BUT it can't compete with the a7c in some areas if you shoot mainly video like myself. That's all I was getting at:) Plus given the price difference it can still be a better choice for some use cases. Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great weekend!
Hey Jazz, I use a rode lav mic with a rode wireless go system (links to the exact ones in the description) but I’d say compared to using the camera mic any dedicated lav, condenser or shotgun mic will be a great jump in audio quality:)

@@dbvares8745 yessss loving the a7C so far! The a6400 is still a beast, but full frame seems to be slaying dynamic range and skin tones so well!
Couldn’t agree more man. I admit I wondered about the full frame hype a bit before I jumped on board but I’m very happy with my investment. I also think the colour science has improved a bit since the a6400. Both the a7c and zv1 are a little more pleasing to me. Would love to be able to justify getting an a7s3 and playing round with the cinetone profile but that ain’t happening any time soon 😆
@@dbvares8745 agreed, the color differences are subtle but something about the a7C to me looks more “natural” and barely needs any color grading out of the box. It’s magic! Just subbed btw!
That’s awesome man! I’m a big fan of HLG and once I’ve mapped that to standard dynamic range I barely touch grading most of the time - are you using any of the picture profiles?
And welcome on board! Awesome to have you and look forward to more insightful chat 💪
and 1 more point for AC7 for the USB-C port rather than the Micro USB in A6400 .. thanks for your video mate
Very good point Hitch, a much more useful and readily available connection!
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have an amazing day 👍
Not a fan of comparing such a wide price gap. We're talking about 2 very different price points. With 1 being a hybrid apsc and the other being a hybrid full frame. We're asking if you should buy a really good hobby camera or a professional entry to mid-level camera. Maybe looking at it as a one-time buy and keep for 10 years. I can see the a7c being a good option. But if you factor in the much much higher cost of the body and the higher price lens. You'd come out much better with the A6400. I think it would have been better to compare the a6600 here. And even then it would be hard to justify going to the a7c unless you plan to make a living with it. Maybe an A7iii would make for a better comparison for the class of camera that the a6400 or a6600 are.
Bought the A7C as a B camera to my a7Siii and I LOVE IT!! Great autofocus and low-light so I can push my ISO a lot higher. Takes great photos too! I immediately bought the SmallRig cage with the amazing silicone handle and it is WAY MORE COMFORTABLE to grip now. Used is on a tripod wide shot on a big choir festival while I did run and gun with my A camera. Same colour science so no colour matching to do. Highly recommended!!!
jesus..you have an A7C as a 'B-camera'? Here I can't even afford the a6400 properly.
"Like Elton John in the '70s, let's consider how cool our lens options are."

Fantastic video. Shooting on an A6400 now and considering adding the A7C to the collection, so very helpful info.
Hey LWTB, really appreciate the kind words and really glad the content was helpful:)

I wasn’t looking forward to a camera comparison video but you made it so entertaining and engaging! Thanks for the awesome comparison. Question- I already have an a6400 with a sigma 16mm 1.4. would it make sense to stay with this kit as a beginner youtuber and maybe invest in a drone or a gimbal for a better variety of shots instead of marginally improving the talking head shots with a small audience size?
Really appreciate the kind words Aparna:)
I’d say the drone and gimbal would certainly give more radically different shot opportunities; whether that is the best fit for what you want to achieve compared camera/lens options is entirely up to you and what you want to create:)
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👍
Thanks for the great review.
I think you could mention the a7c's battery life advantage as well.
Great video, thanks! I'm looking to buy my first proper camera but would prefer to stick to the APS-C lenses due to the lower price, size and weight. I was looking at the Sony A7c but would it make more sense to go for an APS-C camera like the Sony a6600, or does pairing an APS-C lens with a full frame camera still have its advantages?
thanks for making this review video comparing both models, I was looking to compare this 2 cameras.
Thank you for all the categories. Often the better bokeh is not mentioned but for me it is a key benefit of a full frame. Also being able to take photos in close circumstances (alle family members at the table) is often not possible with the crop of a APS-C.
Appreciate the feedback Bifty and completely agree with your analysis!
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day!
I seem to have missed this one, I really want to pull the trigger on the A7C. though hanging off for now to see what drops in the Autumn from Sony.
Hey PL, my Jedi master, always great to hear from you mate. Agree about waiting for the autumn. I would not be surprised by either an a7iv or a full frame zv evolution of the a7c - either of which would be very interesting 🤔
Hope you’re doing well and having a great day 👏
Thanks a lot! Very nice video. Exactly what I was looking for. :)
Hello DB Vares,
Love your channel.
I have a question. I'm on a fence of buying a camera for my Casual Filmmaking and doing some videos on the go while I travel.
Few years ago I purchased Panasonic Lumix G85 with kit lens, and returned it the next day, because the video quality was comparable, almost the same with my smartphone. So I want to risk again and try going with Sony, but I'm not sure what to choose.
I love how you can get ultra-wide with FF A7C, and I don't seems to find a Speed Booster for the ZV-E10.
So here are my options:
1) Get ZV-E10 with kit lens + Sigma 16mm 1.4 + Gimbal
2) Get A7C with kit lens and maybe a lens down the line.
I shoot mostly videos, sometimes photos. As far as I know image quality between a6400 and ZVE10 is almost the same.
What route would you recommend going? I know A7C is better camera, but is it $1,000 better?
I want to keepy camera long-term, and I'm scared that If I purchase ZVE10 and Sigma Trio, they would be redundant when I decide to go FF because I think APSC is going to give me the same image I get on my Samsung Smartphone.
And yes, you can use APSC lens on A FF, but what's the point if the FOV is narrow.
Looking forward for your reply.
Hey iFA, thanks for the kind words and interesting Q.
And apsc camera will destroy a smartphone for image quality and bokeh in many situations so I wouldn’t worry about that. Apsc isn’t far off full frame and has some advantages like price, lens size, weight etc
I wouldn’t worry about zve10 becoming redundant you can use apsc lenses on full frame anyway so those won’t lose any utility. Generally camera gear holds some resale value so you’d always be able to get a reasonable chunk of cash back if choosing to upgrade later.
So based on what you’ve said I think zve10 would be a good match for the use you describe:) Hope that helps!
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great weekend 💪👍
@@dbvares8745 thank you so much. I also noticed that Lumix G9 retails for $999 and GH5 for about $1,200. Do you think they would do much better than the ZV E10?
The main thing that I wanted to hear and watching this whole video was does both cameras do unlimited Record Times. I know the a6400 does, but does the a7c have that capability as well? If not, the a6400 wins hands down for video
Hey SBW, yep both have unlimited record time - I think you can see it in action if I remember correctly and there's a battery comparison in this vid. Your only limiting factors for recording time are SD card capacity and power availability:)
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you like the content and have a great weekend:)
Question - When you place a full frame lens on a A6400 say the 50mm f1.8 This will also change the F stop as well to F2.7 ?
Hey Scott, it won’t change the f stop directly, but will give bokeh closer to f2.7 as you say because the sensor size is just smaller than a full frame sensor.
Hope that makes sense.
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👍
There’s more on the topic here: ua-cam.com/video/gxvFJgCxEQQ/v-deo.html
Quick question: When you threw that 1.8 lens on the A7C at the end of the low-light section, do you remember what ISO it was?
Hey Andrew, from memory I think it was iso2500 on the A7C at 1/50. Hope that helps:) Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great weekend 💪
Hey brother. I enjoy your videos and I'm subbed! There's a video I was watching about APSC, vs. full frame, medium frame, large frame, in a topic entitled "film making and it's history". The UA-camr talks about how relatively the APSC and Full Frame are not so different. Going to medium and large format. Now that's a drastic difference in size. I think the push to go the full frame route may be due to some camera manufacturers using marketing strategies. What do you think about that? Thanks for your videos!
Hey Francis, thanks for watching and sharing the genuinely intriguing question!
I think it’s all relative. There will be people who create amazing content on smartphones-the nature of what they shoot means the constraint that make you or I want different cameras and lenses won’t impact them so what we see as upgrades wouldn’t impact their use case.
Change what the creator cares about/notices/nature of what they make and aps-c could be perfect. Especially if low light or extra bokeh don’t matter too them. It’s all about where they feel constrained and if that sensor size doesn’t limit them then there’s no need to upgrade.
Jumping to full frame is, as you say, quite incremental in some areas. However while the jump to medium format might be more significant it seems like the price of bodies, lenses, gimbals etc would be just as noticeable if not more so.
Very simplistically a bigger sensor should help low light and bokeh amongst other things - I love shooting with both so I’d love to get some medium format gear one day - but I’d be lying if I said I felt constrained with full frame so there’s no urgency there for me - others could legitimately have a totally different perspective.
As for marketing: definitely some truth there. A good business will always segment its products o reach as many people as possible in the market and the more you convince to upgrade over time the better so many will get things they like the idea of but maybe don’t fully utilise - I’m probably guilty of that with some stuff but I always try to grow into any gear I invest in 😆
Value wise full frame is definitely a jump - systems like Sony where lenses are usually across aps-c and full frame help a bit though. Plus for me I’d rather spend a bit more on an a7c than an a6600 to get the bigger sensor, catalyst stabilisation and flip screen. If the only difference were sensor size I might have made a different call.
Anyway sorry for the stream of consciousness super long answer but there’s a few thoughts 😆 Let me know yours and any other Qs and thanks again for the fascinating topic 😁👍
@@dbvares8745 hey DB! Thanks for the response! The world of cameras and GAS (gear acquisition syndrome) is interesting! Hehe. I am definitely guilty of it. I do agree with you.

@@dbvares8745 I'm a sub' 100% 😎
Thanks for the great video, can I ask for your advice? I am looking to get into wedding videography and need a camera, I want one that will last me a long time, I am thinking of getting the A7C with the kit lens for now and then upgrade the lens over time or getting the A6400 with a bit better lens from the word go? My current thinking is the full-frame allows for far better video quality potential down the line with quality lens whereas the A6400 has its limitations with the small sensor irrespective of the lens. Which would you suggest though?
Hey Robin, thanks for watching and the great question:)
I’d say the benefits of full frame can get over emphasised sometimes. There’s definitely and advantage for bokeh and low light potential (both of which I love so full frame is my preference 😂) but it’s possible to get great images with either. However if you’re buying for the long term and you care about those things then full frame is the way to go. The bokeh especially can be confusing since the f number of a lens on a crop sensor is not equivalent to the same f number on full frame - ff will always give more blur: this is how I try to explain that factor: ua-cam.com/video/gxvFJgCxEQQ/v-deo.html
I’d say the fact that full frame can use both its own and crop sensor lenses for video is another advantage which I use quite often. If you wanted a flexible zoom lens with the a7c you could consider something like the crop 18-105 which I get a lot of utility from, for instance: ua-cam.com/video/LQxEcfo4jW4/v-deo.html
As for the a7c specifically I’d prefer that for weddings for a couple of reasons beyond sensor size: you get the fully articulated screen rather than a flip up screen. If you’re shooting high angle or portrait orientation shots it’s just waaaay better.
You also get a larger battery which should be beneficial for longer shoots.
You also get gyro stabilisation as an option, which you don’t with the a6400. For reducing reliance on a gimbal or smoothing handheld shots this is really great: some examples of how that works in practice here: ua-cam.com/video/RB-tWQxzQoM/v-deo.html

@@dbvares8745 thank you very much, definitely helped me a lot, in the beginning while the budget is tight - based on getting the A7C - would you suggest a Sigma f1.4 even though it is cropped, for the great low light ability and pair it with a zoom lens like the one you linked?
@@robinjonker11 I got the kit lens and it is great quality! Love it for me zoom lens for now and then I got the Sony 20mm 1.8 for on the go vlogging and LOVE it! Blown away by the quality of that camera/lens combo!
@@robinjonker11 using apsc lens on full frame will darken the corners of the photos and I wouldn’t have f1.8 still. Just as the zoom changes so does the f-stop
@@robinjonker11 A7iii has stabilization and two memory card slots for backup incase one card fails.
Do you have a video for a6400 using somy 28-60 f3.5?
Great review! Thx.
Thanks Dr Wasim and great to hear from you again:) Hope you’re doing well and had a good weekend 👍
@@dbvares8745 Thx man. Always good when your videoes show up 😊
Thanks for your amazing video. What about the video recording limit for both cameras? You didn't mention this. I'm so curious to know about A7C's ability since I know A6400 can record videos more than 30 minutes up to 1h. So, can A7c do this? Thanks.
Hey Vahid, really appreciate you taking the time to share the nice feedback:)
I can confirm both cameras have no recording limit. Your only limit is size of sd card and battery life:) When I did a 4k24fps battery test recently I got around 95 mins with the a6400 and 165 min with the a7c
Hope that helps!
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👏👍
@@dbvares8745 Thanks for responding so quickly. As a matter of fact, I am interested in starting my own UA-cam channel but don't know what camera to get! In addition, in our country, prices are so high due to the low value of our currency. This means buying A7c, for me, will take a while to get the money. Accordingly, I would like to know if beginning with A6400 is a good idea or should I wait to buy A7c? Thanks again for your time.
Thanks for the extra info Vahid, that’s helpful in making suggestions:)
I certainly don’t think you need something as capable and expensive as the a7c to just get started.
If you want an interchangeable lens camera primarily for shooting video I’d actually recommend the Sony zv-e10; review here:
ua-cam.com/video/LCCCYPIvMCg/v-deo.html
And comparison with a6400 here: ua-cam.com/video/gWNkvIGQfBU/v-deo.html
If you’re just looking for something simple, good quality and not too expensive to get started then the zv-1 is also worth a look. Comparison with a6400 here: ua-cam.com/video/D-PPIus5-DI/v-deo.html

How did you find the EV on the A7C ??
Hey Ron, it does the job and works fine but isn’t anything special would be my summary. Definitely usable but not a selling point.
Hope that helps:)
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a good day 💪
@@dbvares8745 The electronic viewfinder isn’t a strong point, either. Without a center hump like other A7 cameras, the EVF is pushed to the left corner. As a result, it’s small and lacks a decent-sized eyecup. The resolution is also not great at 2.36 million dots. It does improve on the A7 III’s EVF by doubling the refresh rate to 120 Hz, but because of the small size and wide magnification, it’s not as pleasant to use.
i own both, also. great cameras!
Same, though my a6400 is about to be sold since the zv-e10 replaced it. Both great cameras but was a choice that made sense since I shoot almost all video
I just have budget for one not expensive lens for musicvideo which u would prefer? Love i videos
Great question! so I’d say for a music video having a zoom lens which covers multiple focal lengths is probably going to be most helpful since you can get a variety of shots with one lens.
From the ones I’ve tested I’d say the 18-105 is a good choice for crop or full frame bodies: ua-cam.com/video/LQxEcfo4jW4/v-deo.html
And I haven’t tested too many full frame zoom lenses, but the A7C kit lens, 28-60, did a very solid job for video in my experience: ua-cam.com/video/5R5QZzRBwBI/v-deo.html
Hope that helps and let me know any other Qs:) Thanks for watching and the kind feedback, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have an awesome weekend 💪👍

Do you think I should get the m50 with the sigma 16 or the a6400 with the kit lens (for vlogs and talking head)?
Also is it better when starting a UA-cam channel to spend more and get the a7c with the kit lens and zero other gear or the a6400 with the sigma 16 and some nice mics and lighting.
I can stretch my budget to a maximum of 2100$ but I am kinda afraid of putting this amount into something idk nothing about and idk how to use cameras, this is why I asked about m50 or a6400 at first to keep it under 1000.
What are your thoughts
Hey Georges, sorry for the slow reply-hectic times with day job and non YT life just recently 😆
So I’d definitely agree with keeping to a smaller budget until you’re confident in your understanding of cameras and techniques. Full frame stuff like the A7C is great but there will be plenty of people who don’t use the full potential of that kind of gear and are therefore better off saving money on something which will give equally nice results for their use case.
I’d say in terms of end results for talking head: get audio sorted first; a cheap lavalier mic will be a solid start although a shotgun or condenser mic are also good. Again jumping to even cheaper options with these kinds of dedicated mics will be a big upgrade over the built in mics of a phone or camera, after that spending more for nicer mics will give less and less noticeable improvement so a good value dedicated mic is a nice balance for getting started.
I’d then say some simple lighting and experiments with your space would actually be the next most noticeable thing to improve your video quality. I did an experiment using just a smartphone torch and some lighting techniques with results I liked a surprising amount: ua-cam.com/video/bNFSYdgmhV8/v-deo.html and a review of what you can do with one super cheap LED light here: ua-cam.com/video/tIFUPxvCtUY/v-deo.html
As for gear: if your just doing talking head stuff I’d say an M50 with the sigma will give nicer visuals than the A6400 and kit lens. However from the little I know about the M50 I think it has a pretty significant crop when shooting in 4K, and not the greatest autofocus. I can’t remember for sure but there was a time where cannon cameras weren’t supporting shooting at 24fps either. The A6400 has none of these problems so could be a better option depending on your use case, especially if I’m right about that 4K crop. You could also consider the ZV1, which gives similar results to the A6400 with kit lens but has the advantage of great portability and a few extra features. I did a side by side of those here in case helpful: ua-cam.com/video/D-PPIus5-DI/v-deo.html
Sorry for the super long answer but hopefully that helps! I’ve likely missed some points so let me know if you have any other Qs. Otherwise thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have an awesome weekend 💪👍
@@dbvares8745 thank you so much for your reply it is much appreciated
Personally, I don’t see the a7c being the winner in the category of lens options. There simply are more options in lenses for the APS-C bodies than for full frame bodies, when looking at compatible lenses which can produce images at the intended resolution for the respective body.
You can use emount apsc lenses on the a7c. And ff emount on a6400. So they actually have the same # of lenses. The difference is the sensor size giving the a7c a wider range of 'crop' especially in the ff lens dept
@@MrCowfood There are more options in lenses for a crop e-mount body than for a FF e-mount body, when looking at compatible lenses which can produce images at the intended resolution for the respective body. For example, either the APS-C Sony 50mm f1.8 OSS or the FE Sony 50mm f1.8 on the a6400 will produce the same angle of view and roughly a 24mp raw file. However, only one of these lenses will produce an image which utilizes the full intended resolution on the a7c; the crop mode will leave you with only about an 11mp file. Because of this drastic compromise in resolution, most working photographers and even hobbyists will not accept an APS-C lens as a compatible match for the a7c when shopping for available glass.
Hey both, thanks for the insightful comments and dialogue:) Daniel is right about being optimised for resolution from a stills photography perspective. The focus here (and across the channel) is mainly videography where the disconnect between 4K (and even 1080p) is already significant compared to the full stills resolution of both cameras / lens setups.
For video I’ve struggled to notice any appreciable difference in 4K even on large displays when using lenses interchangeably between full frame and aps-c
For photography I suspect the disconnect is more noticeable!
From a video perspective I’ve therefore had a similar experience to Mr C where i get good results without any noticeable issues:)

I hate that I'm always unimpressed byt the images of the a6400, there's something missing... Maybe that "full frame look" everyone is talking about

A6400 + sigma trio is all I need
Should i upgrade my M50 to an a6400 or an a7c?
Hey Doc, that depends entirely on what your use case is. The zv1 and a6400 definitely have some advantages vs the m50 but if what you have already is working well for you then it’s important to work out what the upgrade would achieve.
What are you shooting most and what are the constraints you’re finding with the m50? A bit more info and I can give some more useful thought:)
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👍
@@dbvares8745 Hey, thanks for the quick reply. Foremost I use the M50 to shoot some Shortfilms and Vlogs. For me the disadvantages of this Camera are in first place the cropping in 4K and there aren’t as many lens options as there are for the Sony a6400. The only „problem“ with the a6400 is that there isn’t any Image stabilization, but I own a DJI RSC2 which is a very good Gimbal.
Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹
Ah thanks Doc, that makes a lot of sense. For me I’d say the a6400 is a great shout if you get a lot of use from interchangeable lenses and don’t mind a gimbal setup when vlogging. If you don’t need quite as many looks the zv1 could be an even better option: more compact, better stabilisation including with gyro data and a more versatile flip screen. Plus neither have the 30 min record limit I believe the m50 has which would drive me crazy 😂
So I’d say either a6400 or zv1 could be a god choice with the importance of lens selection and portability probably being the key decider between the two.
Hope that helps and let me know if you end up grabbing one:)

But as long as he's a Sony guy I can't complain lol
Hey Hagaishi, no trashing here - the a6400 is a great option BUT it can't compete with the a7c in some areas if you shoot mainly video like myself. That's all I was getting at:) Plus given the price difference it can still be a better choice for some use cases.

Hey Jazz, I use a rode lav mic with a rode wireless go system (links to the exact ones in the description) but I’d say compared to using the camera mic any dedicated lav, condenser or shotgun mic will be a great jump in audio quality:)
