Solid comparison video as always! Considering the price difference its hard to argue the value you get with the ZV-E10. The 6700 is solid for sure, but I don't know if its twice as expensive solid. I think the a6700 is great for people not wanting to go full frame but want the best apsc. E10 is great for a B-cam for those that already have full frame (like my a7c).
💯 My exact setup. ZV-e10 is the best B camera on the market imo. Price-quality ratio is unmatched. If APS-C lowlight performance is negligible to FF, I would get the A6700 in a heartbeat. Till then, A7C is the travel friendly camera for me. Also, the a6700 is pretty much the same weight as an A7C.
Great comparison! I think one thing that is important to take into account is that the ZV-E10 with a good lens will perform MUCH better than the A6700 with the kit lens! So if you have a budget of only $1500 (and you don’t own any lenses), IMO you should get a ZV-E10 with some good lens(es), like a Sigma 16mm + a Sigma 56mm or a Sigma 18-50mm, rather than a A6700 with a kit lens, possibly even for a lower price! The only thing I was kind of curious about that you didn’t mention is the A6700 1080p240. Is it as sharp as the 1080p24?
I did pretty much the same thing. Been shooting with the ZV-E10 paired with the Tamron 11-20 & 17-70 (everything purchased open box-like new so spent appox. $1500). Really wanting to upgrade to the A6700 though but don’t think I can justify $1400 for a new camera 😅
Thanks for your amazing work, Mark! Best camera reviewer ever! Your reviews solidified my choice for my first camera way back (the ZV-E10) and helped me a lot when I was first starting. And although I recently upgraded to the Fuji X-S20, I couldn't help but wonder what I would be missing out on now that the a6700 is out 😅
Been looking forward to this one. I'm stills-centric and definitely video newbie. ZV-E10 is good enough for UA-cam and social media. No blockbuster movies in my future. Money saved going to glass investment. Thanks for your perspectives as always.
Wow! Christopher Nolan took time out of his busy schedule promoting Oppenheimer to grace us with this comparison! This is actually really great, I'm looking to upgrade from the ZV-10 to the A6700.
Heya Mark, you were what persuaded me to drop my cash on a ZV-E10 (as my first camera) at the very end of last year and have loved every second using it so far. Preordered the a6700 yesterday, as have really got into photography since. I think the ZV-E10 will always stay unbeatable value for money and should be a go to for a lot of first timers. Exited to get a hold of the a6700 though!
Mark just a thought, I use to sub you and wandered off. Lately I have become very disillusioned with all the tribal nonsense in photography channels and what brought me back to you is your demeanor, you speak plain , seem kind and the humor is nice, godspeed and i'm back💖✌
I am still always shocked at the poor quality of the ZV-E10 out of camera with 1080p. My workaround is just to go 4k and downsample if needed, but out of camera, wow, what a difference. I appreciate your videos, Mark. Thanks again.
I was pretty disappointed to see that the a6700 is actually a bit worse in low light than the ZV-E10 and that the rolling shutter issue may be mitigated, but still isn't solved. So I could not decide myself to upgrade to the a6700 from my ZV-E10. Especially considering the insane price difference: Here in Germany, you can get a brand new ZV-E10 plus kit lens plus camera bag for 549€ at the moment, while the a6700 is 1.599€ body only. Of course IBIS and the new video features are nice, but in my opinion that doesn't justify almost triple the price (The a6700 here is even more expensive than an a7c full frame camera!). So I think I will stick to my ZV-E10 until there might come a ZV-E10 M2 that has some of the a6700's new features at a reasonable price.
I think the only real deal breaker for me when it comes to the E-10 is that pretty rough rolling shutter. I know it's a not the end of the world and can definitely be fixed in post, but I feel like having to take that extra step every time would just be a bit annoying, as well as having to also do the same when it comes to stabilizing the image (since it also lacks IBS). It especially hurts because the e-10 is a VLOGGING Camera, at least marketed that way primarily, and I feel like those two things are significantly more important. I do think it probably still is a really good value, giving probably what I'd say is somewhere between 80%-90%ish of the performance depending on use case for like half the cost (not accounting for also using other non kit lenses), but I probably won't be investing in it, especially from previously owning an a5100 and getting out of videography/photography for a while. I'll most likely be saving up for an a6700 eventually, also considering it's jpeg color science is also better than the zv-e10. I have considered a little bit on getting something like the zv1 or zv1mk2, but I would like to have the flexibility that having an APS-C sensor system allows.
Mark, you have the best, and most detailed, easy to understand reviews. I recently bought my own little "Dougette" ZV E10. (One cent short of $1000. in Canada for new, unused. 😬). The 6700 looks good, but for the price, the one I have should do all I ask from it.
Amazing comparison as always Mark. From what I saw it seems that A6700 is a little bit sharper in 4k (unnoticeable ), Sharp for 1080p and more stable other than that ZV-E10 won portability, Night time and It's half the price of a A6700 body. A6700 imo is DOA. Not a real upgrade and worth 1400$ if it was near the 1000 like 1100 or something it could be worth it but for that price it's not at all! for all that price difference one could get a small gimbal with a nice lens and a couple of batteries as well as some other accessories.
Mark, your videos were invaluable as I waded through the archaic array of menus when I first got my ZV-E10 nine months ago. Thanks. I wish I knew how dim that screen really was before I bought it, but it was the only camera in my price range and it really hit it out of the park. Getting stunningly sharp images with great color from some good glass recently.
@AnimAll.AboutWorld Sigma 24mm f2 i series. A full frame lens that has a good tactile feel that most plastic bodies lack. Has an excellent aperture ring that I prefer.
I have to praise you for always including video stabilisation tests, however I would really like to see the opposite vlogging direction with no face in the frame :D
Great Job Mark! Little Dougie continues to impress…pretty much matched the studio work and for vlogging almost perfect using CB, not quite as good 6700 without. I think the ZvE10 is also a bit smaller overall and lighter if that is important. Difference in price would fund a lens or two. The main difference in value to me on the 6700 is the weather sealing, better battery and EVF, otherwise for studio work and basic vlogging little Dougie brings it home!
No you weren't, get real, go play some guitar you non-camera person 🤣 How ya doing man! Gonna add the a6700 to your kit? I may be changing up significantly but I'm working on a 14 or 16 episode series on the camera channel right now 😮 Cheers man!
@@KPGuitarStudios Hey I'm a camera person, at least for one or two rabbitholes per year.. 😝Definitely considered it, but after this comparison I think I'd sooner grab a second ZV-E10, value for money is really unbeatable. For studio work, A6700 offers me no real benefit to swap out the ZV. That "Shiny New Toy" factor gave me some strong lenses in my rose-tinted glasses 😆
@@KaiDown Look at this frickin' guy! Words of wisdom right there 🤘 Absolutely, for studio work its fantastic and you really couldn't need anything more. Did you want to buy mine? 🤣
Hey Mark Love from india it's really great to see your gears and the way you make your videos as a person who is struggling to get my first Sony ZV E10 But i'll defenately buy that before 2024 mark my words i'll back on this comment that day i'll buy my Cam...
I think the A6700 really addresses my chief issues with the ZV-E10. Firstly I chiefly shoot 60p, it just fits my style better, and unfortunately that stucks me at 1080p on the ZV-E10 90% of the time, and the 1080p on that camera is really not that great. So the better 1080p and the option to do 4k60 instead is a big deal that would by default improve 90% of my footage. Second because I can end up with like 300 clips of footage for a video, Catalyst Browse doesn't work very well, and while active stab is actually quite good in terms of effect, the crop is quite painful. The IBIS and improved active stab is thus extremely welcome. There are also a lot of nice to haves. I'm usually pretty reluctant to go past ISO 2000 on the ZV-E10, so having 2500 as a base ISO is pretty attractive. Plus who doesn't love 4k120. I've been drooling over that FX30 sensor for awhile now just wanted it in a smaller and cheaper body and now voila its in a smaller and cheaper body!
I picked up the ZV E10 from Adorama last month. Nice camera, but since I started shooting back when film speeds were rated in ASA instead of ISO. I still need a viewfinder sometimes. So, it's on its way back to exchange for an a6700. I'm more stills than video, but I do like the video capability of the a6700. I do really like the articulating screen too. I still have and use a little a5000 and added an a5100. For their size and uses I can do LCD only. (Plus the darn things are just too cute.) Yeah, I said cute. However, going with large f2.8 zooms and other things, yeah, I need the a6700 and a viewfinder. For Vloggers and aspiring filmmakers starting out E10 is a pretty nice little rig. Or if you are fully into using LCD only and think viewfinders are for us old farts. It's also a good stills camera. Appreciate the comparison.
Extremely well done comparison, Mark. Thanks for your clarity, brevity, and amazing face! 😂 I already have the A7IV and ZV-E10 but have now added the 6700 to a future possibilities list.
i would like a video comparison between the zve1o and the a6700 but only in a photography comparison in all aspects to see if i really should upgrade to the a6700, because im a photographer using de zve10
Thanks Mark! I have aZV-1, ZV E-10 and a6000. Been thinking of what my next addition and upgrade will be. I wanted the FX30 but now I'm thinking of going for the a6700.
Just found your channel I absolutely love your videos thank you so much for taking the time to make them! Just getting into recording my travels and this is so helpful. Stay you 😎 🎉
THANKS MARK! I knew you would do this comparison, love my zve 10 for the value, Definitlely think the a6700 is a good camera for sure! you are an amazing man, thanks bud!
haha perfect was waiting for this comparison to be made ive been told by tiktok creators to get the a6700 if i have the budget but stick with the zve10 if i have a lower budget
For low budget use adapter viltrox ef- nex IV and canon EF lens, I use a6000 with canon 85mm, nice bokeh. For wide lens use canon ef-s 10-18mm. Low Budget it's my life 😅
I got the ZV-E10 on Prime Day for 529€ because your videos convinced me :D I couldn’t afford the a6700 (1699€ in Germany, more than 3x the price!!!). I‘m still waiting for the cam to arrive but I am very excited 😊
Great video, all I want to know is if all the extra goodies from the 6700 are worth the extra weight and size, I just need to go to the camera shop to feel the difference 😀
I'd love to upgrade the 10 to the 6500 but I shoot full length soccer games. 40-45 minute halves at least. My sole reason for upgrading would really be higher frame rates but there's no way you can record a whole game at even 4K60 with the 6500 apparently. Seems like even 1 half is a stretch without overheating from the reviews. Meanwhile the little ZV-E10 has been recording full length games at 4K30 in 85F+ weather, sometimes even in direct sun, and has only shutdown from overheating once.
Under controlled conditions especially, the ZVE10 is the best budget studio camera. In Australia, the current prices for the ZVE10 and A6700 are around $900 and $2200. These prices are tax inclusive.
My goodness Catalyst Browse is so incredible at how well it works. It would be nice if this were simplified somehow in the workflow, but it is a worthwhile step to take.
There is a program called Gyroflow, which is free and basically does the same thing, and I think you can use it directly from your video editor (although I think only DaVinci Resolve is supported at this time). Mark should do a video about it and compare it to Catalyst Browse to see how it compares in terms of workflow and results!
Great video! I currently have the a7IV as my main camera and I shoot in studio in 10 bit s-cinetone. I'm looking for a secondary camera for an additional angle that would always be mounted on a tripod and I'd love to get the budget-friendly zv-e10 instead of the 6700, but my only concern is color-matching zv-e10 to my current a7iv. Any feedback? The "easy choice" is to get the 6700 and put both cameras in s-cinetone. I don't want to deal with any color-grading in post - just set the settings in camera and get matching footage. Thanks!
I think you forgot in terms of the ZV-E10 it does have the better on-board mic with the windshield. Minor point, as most will use an external mic, but worth noting.
Superb Mark. Your sense of explanation with a touch of beautiful humor is always outstanding. I had visited a shop to buy ZVE10 but the shopper also offered me the option of A6400. That will come in my budget. I know that there is no view finder in ZV E10 but A6400 has and that has a weather shield body as well that attracts me much within my budget. I have a hobby of both photography and videography. Will there be less quality picture with ZV E10 if I go with that or that will be same as A6400 quality image ? Will it be a good decision to go with A6400 instead of ZVE10 ?
Hey Mark, when you go to Sony camp next year or whenever it is, can you bring me along as coffee boy? I also tie shoes. You're the best at these comparisons man. Amazing stuff.
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis I'll take this as a yes haha. " Hey guys, meet my adopted son from Thailand. He doesn't speak English and I can't trust him unmanned around a toaster so that's why I had to bring him along. Hope you don't mind".
The 1080 looks astonishingly better on the a6700, wow! The colour grading comparison shows the two looking almost the same, but surely there is a difference (maybe in high dynamic range scenarios)?
I would imaging that Dougie is the best camera for youtbers like myself and have been super impressed with it. That being said I am probably going to sell my D7500 and my Nikon glass to get a A6700 as it will meet my photo and video needs. I like a view finder and having glass that can be used on multiple cameras. I will miss my 200-500 Nikor though.
Been in my camera rabbit hole now for a couple of weeks searching for my first camera. I always hear people prioritize lenses over camera bodies. If I get the 6700 I wont be able to upgrade the stock lens for a couple of months. But if i get the zve10 i can get a spiffy new lens and save 200.
awesome review! how would both compare to the ZV-E1 full frame? The price leap to each camera is quite high.. the only thing that bothers me is the lack of 4k60 and 10bit on my ZV-E10.. I would mainly upgrade to another camera for this + low light capability. Cheers!
According to manual and forums Sony a6700 drop out hdr stills mode and lost Multi frame noise reduction function. So it'seems that sony drop out very important and useful computational photography features for stills and ZV-e10 looks more attractive. Sony a6700 add HLG stills, but it can't substitute HDR-mode (IMO). It's be very helpful to test HDR mode vs HLG for stills. How to live without MFNR I don't understand now. So I will use mu a6600 as long as possible.
Hey man, you have grown since my last post lol. For your lighting is the godox light the only one you use? I see two square lights in your background and didn't know what they were. Also, do you offer teaching for color grading? I have no idea how to color grade. That's why I think for a newbie the zv-e10 I should now open, I kept it in box for possible return, but might be the most new user friendly. I also bought a sigma 16 f1.4 lens. All I care about is 90% videography.
Hi Mark, I am planning to upgrade my oldie Canon 550D finally to a new Sony mirror less caamera I am mostly into photography and not soo much into videos I dont mind a plastic body on ZV E10 as my Canon 550D is also plastic The only con i find on zv which is making me think twice is the lack of a view finder, which i am soo much use to it on my canon I have a strict budget about 700-900$ Do you think Zv E10 is the best in this price range in terms of photography and casual videos only? Even over A6400? Or Canon R50 & Nikon Z30 and Z50??
I think you are better off with an a6400 or even an a6100 (same sensor) with some decent lenses. I would advise getting an a6100 with a sigma 30mm 1.4 or a canon R50 with a 50mm 1.8 RF lens (but that will be a portrait focal length).
hello, :D I watch every single one of your videos when it comes out. I have a little question? Are you a stand-up comedian? And are you still active? Your original video channel doesn't see you have stand-up comedy videos anymore? Or do you have another video channel? I first came to your channel I felt comfortable and happy, I don't know why this face is happy and comfortable, later I saw your stand-up comedy video, then I realized you have a great sense of humor . Some other people make videos but I find them stressful, tired, serious, scary and uncomfortable, leading to the fatigue of people watching the video. Mentally watching the video the purpose is to have fun, not to torture the soul. Your video channel does it for that. i am still waiting for you to make a video about comparing zv-e1 and a6700. A little sideline: in our country the price of the zv-e1 dropped a lot. the amount of money to buy Sony a6700 more about 250 usd can buy zv-e1 new 99% fullbox
thanks for the kind words!! I still do comedy - but I don’t update that comedy channel anymore because the audience is not really there for it. I will be comparing the ZV-E1 to the a6700 in a few days 👍
I had to revmove that because there must have been an error. Even though my computer and the metadata said it was 1080 - it was way too sharp. After retesting several times - the 1080 was no where near as sharp as it was in this video - as I demonstrated in other videos. But it is still better than the ZV-E10
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisisThanks for clarifying. I was considering upgrading due to the sharper 1080p after seeing your video. It’s a 4K camera but 1080p saves space and has no rolling shutter that can be useful at times, and when 1080p is very sharp such as the a7s3 it can be upscaled to 4K with many people not noticing. I always found the zve10 1080p too soft to do this though and if the a6700 ain’t much better that’s nice to know for now.
Solid comparison video as always! Considering the price difference its hard to argue the value you get with the ZV-E10. The 6700 is solid for sure, but I don't know if its twice as expensive solid.

I think the A6700 really addresses my chief issues with the ZV-E10. Firstly I chiefly shoot 60p, it just fits my style better, and unfortunately that stucks me at 1080p on the ZV-E10 90% of the time, and the 1080p on that camera is really not that great. So the better 1080p and the option to do 4k60 instead is a big deal that would by default improve 90% of my footage. Second because I can end up with like 300 clips of footage for a video, Catalyst Browse doesn't work very well, and while active stab is actually quite good in terms of effect, the crop is quite painful. The IBIS and improved active stab is thus extremely welcome.
There are also a lot of nice to haves. I'm usually pretty reluctant to go past ISO 2000 on the ZV-E10, so having 2500 as a base ISO is pretty attractive. Plus who doesn't love 4k120. I've been drooling over that FX30 sensor for awhile now just wanted it in a smaller and cheaper body and now voila its in a smaller and cheaper body!
I sincerely hope that next year Sony release an upgraded version of the ZVE10 within the same 800-900 dollar range...
that would be great. I’m thinking it’ll be 2 years. but we’ll see
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS. MY MANS DELIVERED AS ALWAYS.
I picked up the ZV E10 from Adorama last month. Nice camera, but since I started shooting back when film speeds were rated in ASA instead of ISO. I still need a viewfinder sometimes. So, it's on its way back to exchange for an a6700. I'm more stills than video, but I do like the video capability of the a6700. I do really like the articulating screen too. I still have and use a little a5000 and added an a5100. For their size and uses I can do LCD only. (Plus the darn things are just too cute.) Yeah, I said cute. However, going with large f2.8 zooms and other things, yeah, I need the a6700 and a viewfinder. For Vloggers and aspiring filmmakers starting out E10 is a pretty nice little rig. Or if you are fully into using LCD only and think viewfinders are for us old farts. It's also a good stills camera. Appreciate the comparison.
This is the video I've been waiting for, thank you 🙏🏾
Extremely well done comparison, Mark. Thanks for your clarity, brevity, and amazing face! 😂 I already have the A7IV and ZV-E10 but have now added the 6700 to a future possibilities list.
🤣
You say the funniest lines. 😂 Classy humor and infrequently enough to not be overdone. I see the genius in all that you do. ❤
Ha - thanks!!
This is so valuable! Thanks so much for the work you put into the review, it really helped me to make the decision to go from ZV-E10 to a6700.
Glad it was helpful!
I just love your low light test just amazing
Damn! I was so confused about whether I had to go for a6700 or zv-e10. But, now I have cleared up my mind after watching this video. Thank you, Mark!
i would like a video comparison between the zve1o and the a6700 but only in a photography comparison in all aspects to see if i really should upgrade to the a6700, because im a photographer using de zve10
I bought the A6700 and ZV-E10 because of your reviews. It would be wonderful if you could also do a photo/video setting tutorial for the A6700.
I been debating with myself which one to go for and still am after watching this. Thank you 😊
it’s tough!!
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis yea very tough. I'm glad you did this video on it though 😁
Thanks for the comparison video it helps me a lot in choosing which one to buy.
Thanks Mark! I have aZV-1, ZV E-10 and a6000. Been thinking of what my next addition and upgrade will be. I wanted the FX30 but now I'm thinking of going for the a6700.
Just found your channel I absolutely love your videos thank you so much for taking the time to make them! Just getting into recording my travels and this is so helpful. Stay you 😎 🎉
THANKS MARK! I knew you would do this comparison, love my zve 10 for the value, Definitlely think the a6700 is a good camera for sure! you are an amazing man, thanks bud!
Have been waiting for this. Nice vid
Can you do an A6400 vs a6700 video please
haha perfect was waiting for this comparison to be made ive been told by tiktok creators to get the a6700 if i have the budget but stick with the zve10 if i have a lower budget
For low budget use adapter viltrox ef- nex IV and canon EF lens, I use a6000 with canon 85mm, nice bokeh. For wide lens use canon ef-s 10-18mm. Low Budget it's my life 😅
I knew this video was coming and was looking forward to it! Didn't disappoint
There we go homeboy !! Amazing review ❤❤❤
I got the ZV-E10 on Prime Day for 529€ because your videos convinced me :D I couldn’t afford the a6700 (1699€ in Germany, more than 3x the price!!!). I‘m still waiting for the cam to arrive but I am very excited 😊
It's so great
It's crazy 1399 USD vs 1700 EUR.. I plan to check out the camera and maybe buy it when I will be visiting U.S.
Did you forget to protect the matrix when shooting a lens? (
Great video, all I want to know is if all the extra goodies from the 6700 are worth the extra weight and size, I just need to go to the camera shop to feel the difference 😀
always a good idea to try them out in person
As member of the Camera Crisis family, We will forgive any less than positive (eh em) remarks you've made about our Little Dougie ... this time 🙂
Dougie still runs this ship
I'd love to upgrade the 10 to the 6500 but I shoot full length soccer games. 40-45 minute halves at least. My sole reason for upgrading would really be higher frame rates but there's no way you can record a whole game at even 4K60 with the 6500 apparently. Seems like even 1 half is a stretch without overheating from the reviews. Meanwhile the little ZV-E10 has been recording full length games at 4K30 in 85F+ weather, sometimes even in direct sun, and has only shutdown from overheating once.
Under controlled conditions especially, the ZVE10 is the best budget studio camera. In Australia, the current prices for the ZVE10 and A6700 are around $900 and $2200. These prices are tax inclusive.
Yes - the zv-e10 is such amazing bang for Buck
Maybe in a year or two I'll buy the 6700, just to do other, more professional jobs. At the moment my zv10 is spectacular! good video, as always Mark
In terms of price. I would go for zve10 regardless of its features
Thanks for the clip , I have the ZV E 10 and thinking if the upgrade is worth or not
My goodness Catalyst Browse is so incredible at how well it works. It would be nice if this were simplified somehow in the workflow, but it is a worthwhile step to take.
yes - hopefully it will be don’t in camera one day
There is a program called Gyroflow, which is free and basically does the same thing, and I think you can use it directly from your video editor (although I think only DaVinci Resolve is supported at this time). Mark should do a video about it and compare it to Catalyst Browse to see how it compares in terms of workflow and results!
@@JonasPetri He should! I think it is a perfect Mark video.
Great video! I currently have the a7IV as my main camera and I shoot in studio in 10 bit s-cinetone. I'm looking for a secondary camera for an additional angle that would always be mounted on a tripod and I'd love to get the budget-friendly zv-e10 instead of the 6700, but my only concern is color-matching zv-e10 to my current a7iv. Any feedback? The "easy choice" is to get the 6700 and put both cameras in s-cinetone. I don't want to deal with any color-grading in post - just set the settings in camera and get matching footage. Thanks!
Patiently waiting for Go Hero 11 vs ZV-10, always perfect content Mark! Love from Philippines 🤍
Thats not comparable at all
@@sankt.gabriel he actually have a video Go pro Hero 10 vs Zv-e10
To me both are absolutely fine. Given that the a6700 is literally 3.5 times the price of the zv-e10 here, I think the choice is pretty easy for me😅
El mejor autorizado en hablar de cámaras profesionales
I think you forgot in terms of the ZV-E10 it does have the better on-board mic with the windshield. Minor point, as most will use an external mic, but worth noting.
you’re right!! sold the zv-e10 short
Your channel is the best!! Congrats!!
No, you're the best!!
zve10 mark 2 with 4k 60fps, 10 bit, and larger battery would be perfect.
Great comparison Mark!
Superb Mark. Your sense of explanation with a touch of beautiful humor is always outstanding. I had visited a shop to buy ZVE10 but the shopper also offered me the option of A6400. That will come in my budget. I know that there is no view finder in ZV E10 but A6400 has and that has a weather shield body as well that attracts me much within my budget. I have a hobby of both photography and videography. Will there be less quality picture with ZV E10 if I go with that or that will be same as A6400 quality image ? Will it be a good decision to go with A6400 instead of ZVE10 ?
the a6400 e you the same video quality yes.
Hey Mark, when you go to Sony camp next year or whenever it is, can you bring me along as coffee boy? I also tie shoes.
You're the best at these comparisons man. Amazing stuff.
I can finally get rid of these velcro straps!!
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis I'll take this as a yes haha. " Hey guys, meet my adopted son from Thailand. He doesn't speak English and I can't trust him unmanned around a toaster so that's why I had to bring him along. Hope you don't mind".
I just shot a whole wedding video on a zve10 and the clients loved it
Awesome!!
I love your reviews! and this one is particularly interesting!^^ would love it if you do Sony A6700 vs Sony ZV E1 too ^^
on the way
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis waiting too for this. thx Mark.
The 1080 looks astonishingly better on the a6700, wow! The colour grading comparison shows the two looking almost the same, but surely there is a difference (maybe in high dynamic range scenarios)?
I would imaging that Dougie is the best camera for youtbers like myself and have been super impressed with it. That being said I am probably going to sell my D7500 and my Nikon glass to get a A6700 as it will meet my photo and video needs. I like a view finder and having glass that can be used on multiple cameras. I will miss my 200-500 Nikor though.
Been in my camera rabbit hole now for a couple of weeks searching for my first camera. I always hear people prioritize lenses over camera bodies. If I get the 6700 I wont be able to upgrade the stock lens for a couple of months. But if i get the zve10 i can get a spiffy new lens and save 200.
What do you plan to shoot?
I find the colour is really great and the focus is very sharp on alpha 6700. Oh man that twice expensive hit me hard 😅
Subbed - you’re alright 😂
Quality work and well worth the sub
Much appreciated!
thanks for the great review!
awesome review! how would both compare to the ZV-E1 full frame? The price leap to each camera is quite high.. the only thing that bothers me is the lack of 4k60 and 10bit on my ZV-E10.. I would mainly upgrade to another camera for this + low light capability.
Cheers!
Bought my ZVE10 last week about to return it
The a6700 is a great upgrade if you have the budget
Epic comparison. Thank you! 😅
Little Dougie packs quite a punch for the price. He's a cutie
because of the better fastening of the strap, you need to take the ZV-E10
You can take the rattling bits off the a6700
i would love to see a comparison with x-s20
That sharp 1080p is more than a reason to upgrade...
According to manual and forums Sony a6700 drop out hdr stills mode and lost Multi frame noise reduction function. So it'seems that sony drop out very important and useful computational photography features for stills and ZV-e10 looks more attractive.
Sony a6700 add HLG stills, but it can't substitute HDR-mode (IMO).
It's be very helpful to test HDR mode vs HLG for stills.
How to live without MFNR I don't understand now. So I will use mu a6600 as long as possible.
Wow, why on earth would they do that?? Does this mean the zve10 is better in low light than the a6700?
i am still using zve10, it is still wonderful camera.
It is!!
Hey man, you have grown since my last post lol. For your lighting is the godox light the only one you use? I see two square lights in your background and didn't know what they were. Also, do you offer teaching for color grading? I have no idea how to color grade. That's why I think for a newbie the zv-e10 I should now open, I kept it in box for possible return, but might be the most new user friendly. I also bought a sigma 16 f1.4 lens. All I care about is 90% videography.
1080P from the E10 is so weak, glad the A6700 is improved. Curious how is the FX30 v A6700 1080, considering it is using the same sensor.
Very well explanation sir❤✌
How about A6700 vs Fuji XS20 for next content😁😁😁
very detail, tk so much.
A6700 for sure!
I currently have the a6600. The a6700 is tempting but I’m holding out for an a7s iv release.
a6600 is still fantastic
Increíble!!
Hi Mark,
I am planning to upgrade my oldie Canon 550D finally to a new Sony mirror less caamera
I am mostly into photography and not soo much into videos
I dont mind a plastic body on ZV E10 as my Canon 550D is also plastic
The only con i find on zv which is making me think twice is the lack of a view finder, which i am soo much use to it on my canon
I have a strict budget about 700-900$
Do you think Zv E10 is the best in this price range in terms of photography and casual videos only? Even over A6400? Or Canon R50 & Nikon Z30 and Z50??
I think you are better off with an a6400 or even an a6100 (same sensor) with some decent lenses. I would advise getting an a6100 with a sigma 30mm 1.4 or a canon R50 with a 50mm 1.8 RF lens (but that will be a portrait focal length).
Great video! Very informative. Can you compare A6700 to Canon R7 and R50?
How's the overheating issue in the a6700?
hello, :D I watch every single one of your videos when it comes out. I have a little question? Are you a stand-up comedian? And are you still active? Your original video channel doesn't see you have stand-up comedy videos anymore? Or do you have another video channel? I first came to your channel I felt comfortable and happy, I don't know why this face is happy and comfortable, later I saw your stand-up comedy video, then I realized you have a great sense of humor . Some other people make videos but I find them stressful, tired, serious, scary and uncomfortable, leading to the fatigue of people watching the video. Mentally watching the video the purpose is to have fun, not to torture the soul. Your video channel does it for that. i am still waiting for you to make a video about comparing zv-e1 and a6700. A little sideline: in our country the price of the zv-e1 dropped a lot. the amount of money to buy Sony a6700 more about 250 usd can buy zv-e1 new 99% fullbox
thanks for the kind words!! I still do comedy - but I don’t update that comedy channel anymore because the audience is not really there for it. I will be comparing the ZV-E1 to the a6700 in a few days 👍
Hey Mark what happened to the 1080P HD comparison between the two? I remember the a6700 had better HD video?
I had to revmove that because there must have been an error. Even though my computer and the metadata said it was 1080 - it was way too sharp. After retesting several times - the 1080 was no where near as sharp as it was in this video - as I demonstrated in other videos. But it is still better than the ZV-E10
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisisThanks for clarifying. I was considering upgrading due to the sharper 1080p after seeing your video. It’s a 4K camera but 1080p saves space and has no rolling shutter that can be useful at times, and when 1080p is very sharp such as the a7s3 it can be upscaled to 4K with many people not noticing. I always found the zve10 1080p too soft to do this though and if the a6700 ain’t much better that’s nice to know for now.
