#A6700 #A7CII #A7C2 - Фільми й анімація
A6700 has a 26 Megapixels sensor
You’re right, pinning this comment
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.
Very well said and fully agree here 💯
The also added the AI autofocus from A7RV
I still undecided because zoom lens weight on a7C2+24-70 or a6700+16-55😢 is huge difference . I am a retired, and picking up the hobby again, I am not new to photography as when young I shoot on film camera. Don’t like to change lenses on tour😅.

Thanks for watching 🤙
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!
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 🫡
Always appreciate your feedback - been very valuable over the years
Thanks for noticing that, it’s always on my mind and good to hear that it’s coming across
See you in the next one, Asiad 💯
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
❤ 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.
Glad you liked it and enjoy that combo - solid one that I use as well
Excellent review! Thank you.
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.
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!
That’s awesome, David, enjoy it. Glad you liked the video 💯
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.
It is nice to hear that you need to use a 3rd party magnetic cooler for a latest gen camera that is sold for more than 1.5k €. YES, IT IS AN ISSUE.
@@engineer4862 Nonsense!
My 6700 has never overheated without the fan - in the hot climates of the Philippines and the Desert of Nevada without any fan.
But there's a ton of people grousing about overheating, that I find its worth mentioning to people, due to people actively trying to scare people into the FX30 instead of the 6700, since it "could" overheat, like ANY camera could. Real reason to buy FX30 would mostly be shutter angle is easyer to use, but the 6700 has superior AF, if you care to have that.
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).
I expose at +1.7 with slog3 and can literally drop the utopia lut on from Joel famularo and be more than happy (in most cases). Hope this helps
Very informative! Thank you.
Great vid thanks! Subbed.
12:28 Bro you killed me 😆 Great video and breakdown of both cameras 👌🏻
What’s the GOAT 🐐 doing in my comments?!
Much love, James, appreciate you 🤙
And you know as well as anyone that we’ve gotta give the people what they want
Great comparison video! If you could get the a7cii or fx30 for the same price, which would you choose for a 3-camera video podcast? I like the idea of having a camera for high quality photos sometimes, but I also like the idea of 2 card slots and internal fan. Although I haven't seen any complaints of the a7cii overheating, like you mentioned. Thoughts on a7cii vs fx30 for video?
Thank you. I own both right now but with videos like yours I’m trying to decide which one to keep. Got the A7CII as an open box with a $200 discount and probably go that path because I have other full size full frame Sony bodies I shoot with and I’m really more of a stills shooter and I do very little video. Your video is VERY good and recommend it to anyone looking at these cameras. One hug plus for the A6700 is the reduced cost of lenses and their nice small size. A greatly reduced burden for new users. Take care.
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
That’s a great point, thanks for sharing. I love my a6700 as well and think it’s one of the most value-packed cameras on the market right now
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!
I dig it 🤙 enjoy the new a6700
Please note: One item you overlooked with regard to shooting video: The a6700 has a fast-scanning sensor (similar in many ways to that of the Fujifilm APS-C cameras) that dramatically reduces rolling-shutter effect when compared with the A7C or A7CII. The faster-scanning sensor readout is significantly better for faster-moving subjects than the Sony A7C or A7CII (or the other a7 models as well).
Dang! Another video to push ne closer to purchase a new camera.. A6700 for me though! Excellent video, good points and outstanding quality!
Hey Lars 🤙 thank you and you’ll love the a6700
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.
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!
Really good points here and I might be the only person on the plant who prefers the the not silver version
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.
That was really cool of you to say, thanks for the note 💯
I have used the a7c ii at 12,500 iso, it does a fantastic job, the finished photos blown up to 8 x 10 are excellent.
What about if you use a Ninja for external recoding on the a6700? Would have redundancy for recording.
Thank you so much😊❤❤ & respect from Hini Shinaki Gilgit-Baltistan
Glad you liked it and thank you for the note
For photo-only use, I did a detailed comparison to determine which to get. Ultimately, it boiled down to compactness and weight of camera and comparable lens.
For photos only, which one would you go for?
If you could get the a7cii or fx30 for the same price for a 3-camera video podcast, which would you choose? I like the idea of having something for high quality photos, but I like the idea of 2 card slots and internal fan. Although I haven't really seen any complaints of the a7cii overheating like you mentioned. Personally I prefer FF, but wanted your thoughts on the fx30 vs a7cii for video!
Pls review the upcoming zve10 mark 2 vs 6700 as well. I’m getting either of them this summer.
Great channel. I'm so torn. I do "studio" video in my kitchen - typical large kitchen view with b-roll close-ups. Exploring new cameras - I was so close to going with the A7Cii. Then switched leaning toward the ZV-E1 because people (including you) gave it such great reviews. Can you offer a recommendation?
Thank you and that’s a tough one
I don’t think you can go wrong with either
My $.02 if I were you:
- go with the a7cII if you’re planning on recording for longer than 50-min continuously
- go with the a7cII if you want some higher level photo capabilities
- go with the ZV-E1 if you need incredible in camera stabilization
- go with the ZV-E1 if you need higher level slow motion settings
And maybe even consider the FX30?
Bonjour et merci pour votre vidéo, je me suis procuré le Sony A6700 en août dernier pour de la photo et vidéo animalière
Excellent Jaw
Did you do the live streaming via USB on the cameras? I stream with my a6700 through HDMI at 24fps with a dummy battery and it has never overheated on me and I stream for hours. Actually, I have accidentally left the camera on all day sending the signal through HDMI and it has never overheated.
I have had issues with it overheating using the USB streaming feature or trying to use USB as the power source.
Good info here. I kept it to the USB-C as in think that is the most practical for most people but I hope that what you wrote helps some people. Great feedback here, thanks again
@@seandewispelaereI did forget to note that you will need a capture card also.
Love my a7siii but that a7cii would be awesome to upgrade my a7c….i don’t really need it but man it’s 🔥….great video!
Hey Sean can you check if overheating is still an issue with A6700 if it's used with Elgato camlink 4k via HDMI
You did very great with this video! I loved every second of it!!!!
Thanks so much, that means a lot 🤙
Sean! Lovely videos. I’m playing this on a giant projector. The a7cII has green cast in skin and a6700 looks more pink. I prefer the pink look and reminds me more of canon.
Thanks, Jay - that could be more of a white balance thing but I can see your point. I have noticed that the a6700 is a bit warmer but both look excellent regarding color science in my opinion.
@@seandewispelaere agreed! If budget wasn’t an issue do you always recommend a7c2? I’d like to capture images of my travel and outings with friends that look like they’re shot on a Panasonic ev1 or c70 😂 or maybe wait till r5c2 is released? Could turn down sharpeners? Use a black mist filter? Shoot 1080? The race to sharpeness looks digital
@@jaymills1720 yea I usually use a ⅛ mist and lift the shadows slightly for that exact reason. Unless you absolutely need 4K 120 it’s hard not to prefer the A7C II here in my opinion
Couldn’t stand the greenish tint on the a7c ii. Reminded me of the a7 iii. Thanks for the great video Sean.
@@TravisVarga but doesn’t the zve1 have the same tint? The fx3 sensor seems more green than the fx30?
Awesome video! One small thing: the a7cii retails for $2,199, not $2,100.
BIG difference between the two for photos is that the a7cii does not have a fully mechanical shutter.
This is my biggest concern. I want a greater hybrid camera. I need a camera for product photography for work. However, I want to do product reviews and videos. I really think the fuji x100vi would fit me perfectly, but it's backordered for years now. So I've been looking at the a6700 and a7cii.
@ 4:41 you say the 1.5x crop is a disadvantage to the FF a7c ii, But when compared to an Already Cropped sensor its still better off.
i..e i wouldn't count it as a disadvantage. More like the 4k 30 of the FF sensor is a big advantage
The insane crop for 4k 120 is quite bad. but you only use that when you need it
Thank you Sean for the helpful and informative video comparing Sony A6700 and A7C II, useful! God bless and good luck!
I have an a7iv and I need a smaller cheaper camera for vacation…knowing the quality of the A7iv should I just splurge for the a7cii? Or just get the 6700? Really just want something small that will fit my small lens I’m not taking my A7iv with me most of the time due to size…
Hi, would you prefer this camera to the Sony ZV E1 in terms of photo and video quality?
Great question!
You are very well informed on cameras! I learned a great deal from your a6700 tutorials. I am quite happy with my purchase.
4:05 the other downside with XAVC HS is that, in Sony's infinite wisdom, it's not available in 30 FPS (only 24 and 60)
Was waiting for the Jaw shot 😫😫😫
I got both Ac7II and the A6700. Ac7II is inside a box, I’m going to unbox it and decide which one to keep and which one to sell thank you.
Which one you kept?
Which one? Answers!
@@wouldoox8024 I’ve actually been busy so still haven’t unboxed the AC7 II yet, I will try and do it this weekend.
@@VictorMartinez-cx7iy I’ve actually been busy so still haven’t unboxed the AC7 II, I will try and do it this weekend. I will get back to you
@@luenicluke thx :D
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
Am I not correct in saying if I do a 50% crop on an image from the a6700 and take the same shot on the a7C II with the same lens and blow it up to the same subject size as the one from the a6700 (the two images look exactly the same), the a6700 will be sharper (more pixels) than the a7C II. Looking at this from a wildlife perspective where cropping is common place. The a6700 3:2 Raw mode is 26 MP (6192 x 4128) and the a7C II is 33 MP (7008 x 4672) . The effective focal length for the a6700 is 1.5 times which would reduce the pixels for the a7C II by 1.5 times to produce the same size image (4672 x 3115) and then half that for the crop, the final resolution for the a7C II for the 50% cropped image would be 2336 x 1557 vs 3096 x 2064 for the a6700.
Pricing update as of Jun 8, $1398 USD for a6700 and $2198 USD or $800 difference.
They are nice features full cameras but be careful BODYS ARE SMALL especially when big lens attached like your review
A6700 my way to go
ZVE1 is much better than both if want to do video at faster frame rates.
This is technically a comparison between the FX30 and the A7IV 🤔
8:45 dude just buy a fan 😂
The only problem is that where I live a6700 costs 1729€ and the a7c mkii costs 2399€ This price point makes the a6700 so expensive crop camera
Yea that’s really unfortunate and I see your point
@@seandewispelaere That is the main reason why I keep saving for A7C mkII 😅
Switching from FF Canon… I'm hyped to be honest 🥹
In the US, I was able to get the a6700 brand new for ~1200€ so the a6700 was a no brainer :D
I really regret choosing the a7cii over a6700... my own fault but I didn't realise there just isn't any good versatile zoom that offers very wide to a zoom like the 16-50mm for Sony apsc cameras, nothing exists for it, and that's what I want, I don't want and can't afford two lenses.... I messed up 😩
Sorry, Sony has good colors? The worst color from all brands. Can you do a Fujifilm xt5 and Sony a7cii. Love to see that comparison on photograph. I do zero videos. Trying to upgrade my system. Leaning towards heavy on the XT5
I don't know why people are still debating color these days when obviously different people are gonna like different skin tones anyway. I personally like Fuji skin tone the most but I never really use picture straight out camera anyway and I shoot raw 99.99% of the time....moreover, there are so many great post processing apps these days that it does not really matter already with a few click / touch to apply preset which only takes a few seconds.
How we percieve colors is subjective. I do not like the skin color from Fuji. Looks magenta to me, but I always liked Sony colors.
Get the s5ii
Iso test in studio is not the same as in Low light in real situations. Low light performance on a6700 seems to be pretty bad tbh.
esto es cierto. la a 6700 a poca luz es una completa basura.
22:40 I'm not sure it's fair to say that for live streaming "your not going to be able to go with the a6700".
Most people don't need to be streaming in 4k. Aside from us pixel peeping perfectionists, the average person is watching our content on a smartphone. At best they're watching on a laptop or desktop, and they don't even seem to be aware that they can go full screen (I do a fair bit if user testing). If they could, they wouldn't know whether they were watching 720 or 8k. Heck, most iPhone users can't be bothered to rotate their phone to landscape and give a video the respect it deserves. All sad but true.
The a6700 is beautifully positioned to stream razor sharp 1080p all day long.
I love your content, Brother. Keep it up!
I cant find the 60fps in my A6700, only 24,30,50,100,120 fps
someone help me
Change from PAL to NTSC
I sold sony for Lumix, now Im happier
A6700 has 26 mega pixels not 24 man
The lenses are the same size and weight, so there is no advantage to an APSC camera from that brand.
Do you see the cost as an advantage for APS-C?
I am sorry....but you are telling me APSC lenses are of the same size and weight vs FF lenses? ... and perhaps cost? For example, can I get a FF lens of F1.2 at 35 or 50 MM at the same price/weight as the Viltrox 27mm F1.2 on APSC which let in basically the same amount of light on the sensor? S
@@seandewispelaere No, my house cost me $3,000 per month, so a lens at $1,000 once at time of purchase isn't something I find expensive. I think the only people who find cameras expensive are those that live with their parents or never compare how they spend money.
Sean The Gigachad, thank you for mentioning the jab
Great video on both cameras. As you may recall, I currently own the a6700, and I absolutely love it. If I get that wild hair up my ass and decide to go full-frame, then the a7CII is who I’m rolling with.
Again, great video, and even better “Double Jaw” shot, my man.
