Sony owes a huge debt to you! It was in 2016, 2017 and 2018, when I extensively started watching all your Sony camera videos and decided to buy a Sony a6500 for myself!
Same here in 2015. I bought an a6500 then moved to a7iii, a7R3 in 2018, bought 3 of the a7S3 in 2020, then a1 in 2021. I still have the a6500 which is recording 10+ hours every Saturday (along with the 1 inch RX10, the three a7S3 and A1 for the entire 10+ hours) at SoCal HS track and field meets. The a6500 is still up there in quality even after almost a decade. The RX10 is dated in its 4K so I might replace it with a Sony a7S3.
still using a6000 and i cant complain, 200 bucks and you are in the game...
Where do you buy it for that price?
yeah a6000 is like an UZI gun for me... it fires rapidly and very reliable
It doesnt have mike,did u faced any problem while making videos?
@@aabnamak if you live in europe Rajala has some cheap a6000’s, picked mine up for around 220 euros last week. Used but not alot
Same, bought mine open box for $450 and it has been a blast. I don't do videos so I don't care about 4K
a6400 the GOAT
💯💯💯
weak battery and no IBIS, certainly no "GOAT"
but good for its price
@@Skaratak the greatest of all time for value and reliability
A6400 is 825 Euro, A6700 during an action about 1250 Eiro… at this point the A6700 is a no brainer
but even the zve10 is cheaper than the 6400
just got myself a practically new a6000 and im not disappointed with the image quality. superb.
imagine quality is amazing. I have the 6100 but im looking to upgrade for IBIS and some weather sealing
@@dylancurcio5388my only problem with my a6000 is no weather sealing
I stayed with the a6000 until the a6700 was released. None of the others were enough of an upgrade for me. I used it side by side with the a7 RIIIa and it held its own. That's how good the a6000 is.
I’m using it for photography since 2015 and I love it. In this way It is still actual nowadays.
@@plutonium5156 Same here still use A6000 to this day! Mostly for photos but I love that I can grab some video if I want and it's not bad with a gimble or tripod or even handheld with a lens that has stabilization. Only considering getting an a6400 for 4k and no record limits. But I probably will still use the A6000 for photos till the wheels fall off.
Hi there. Audio engineer here. I wanted to make a suggestion, your mic quality is amazing, but the amount of mouth and spit noise coming through is a little bit unbearing. Id suggest getting an izotope mouth declick plugin that gets rid of this. You can use this plugin with pro tools or whatever DAW you are using. Will make a collosal difference as mouth clicks and pops are quite unbearable to hear for most people.
as a fellow audio engineer, i second this
Can't wait for the A6200,A6800 and A6900!
69 AHaHaHaHa
can't wait for a6400 mark ii 😭😭👍🏻
I love that Arthur always perfectly channels my obsession with Sony into RUclips video content.
Great video. I’m a member of the Sony Alpha subreddit and boy is there a lot of snobbery on there. The now 10-year-old A6000 is still an incredibly capable camera here in 2024.
The only real improvements I've really noticed going from the a6000 to a6400 is better auto focus and some small quality of live improvement like the flipout touch screen and nicer colours straight out of camera
Viewfinder is better too and video capture is much better with not time limit and overheating.
I currently have the Sony A7RV but I started out with the Sony a6000 as my first camera and I still love that camera to this day, it holds a special place in my heart. 😎
Fun fact, the fx30/a6700 sensor is apparently just a smaller sized a7rv sensor.
You did a really great job on this nine way comparison. You've come a really long way and a short time in your knowledge of products and techniques.
I have enjoyed all of your videos and i'm very grateful for the hard work you put into each video.
It has also been a great privilege to watch your family as they grow.
Please keep up the good work.
I have been waiting so long for this video from you 😢 so glad to finally see it!
Thank you! We need more videos like this! I've been looking to buy a Sony camera and understanding what I can get on my budget and what I potentially miss out on is important.
I’ve been a watcher of your channel for years, you sir know how to put a fantastic video together, thank you so much, I hope you are well
you were the reason for my sony camera purchase. i wish you nothing but good fortune and blessings for all the hard work you do for videos like this one and the sales videos during black friday which i know take days to make.
This is definitely the video I was waiting for and you've nailed it!
I also own the a6300 and I'm on the verge to upgrade.
This video helped a lot!
Thanks, man.
These videos of yours are the best. Helped me a lot when I first got myself into e-mount and regularly came back to them when I needed some cleanup on the product line. Same goes this time. In just 30 minutes you summarize the entire product lineup which is a feat considering how many cameras Sony has nowadays.
Thank you, Arthur, for the next great video! I`m in love with my vintage A6000 and A7II ! Greetings from Germany!
GREAT job Arthur! The most complete video on the topic.
As someone just getting started with Sony Apsc, your channel is a goldmine of information. Thanks for keeping the Apsc love alive!
Another great video! I bought the a6700 back in August. I absolutely love it!
Thank you so much for this update! You're so thorough and I love that you point out what may be important to video vs. photo. Totally helped me make a decision on which camera to get.
Off to look for some lens reviews now!
Haven't even watched the vid yet but came to say that Arthur is the Sony APSC content creator of my dreams. I've owned a Sony A6300 for the past 6 years (still have it), 4 of those years involving professional work. I recently upgraded to the A6700 and it's definitely a night and day difference. My hands are so used to not having IBIS that having it in the A6700 is filming on easy mode hahahah
But believe me when I say that you will lose those steady hands fast 😂
The a6700 is so good that I bought and sold my A74 in short time. Never underestimate this little wonder of a camera. It's just a better camera than the 'best.'
@@bondgabebond4907 yeah absolutely
@@WillemvanderPijl I've heard that and am really trying my best to be conscious of it and not be complacent 😂😵💫
@@bondgabebond4907 Ooo any particular reason why? Would love to know as I'm still learning more and more about cameras
About Sony APS-C line, for me, Arthur's channel is the first place to check before go. Thank you so much Arthur!!!👍
Best reviewer i've seen in awhile. thank you. Thanks for giving an actual opinion instead of being ambiguous.
Great job Arthur. You really nailed it and know these cameras!!
Great comparison. I really enjoyed understanding the Sony line like you do. You use these cameras every day and you understand them more than most. Thanks and bless you.
thank you so much discussing the differences of these cameras. very helpful for me since I'm planning to buy a sony apsc camera that would fit for our needs and budget as well.
This review is so satisfying. Thanks for putting it out.
Just the guide I've been waiting for Arthur. Trying to decide whether to trade up my 6300.
Arthur, you are the SONY CAMERA GURU! Thank you so much for making these insanely detailed videos. They are incredibly helpful for camera noobs like me. I have been rocking the A6400 for a couple years now, and it's been great.
I enjoy your videos, they are informative and helped me decide which Sony APSC camera to buy. Thank you.
Your information was excellent and presentation was extremely well done. Just subscribed. Looking forward to more videos.
Thanks! I think. Now I want the FX 30. I picked up the ZV-E10, and after finding your last video, the A6600. I love having both in the bag for traveling.
Amazing review for someone who is completely new to this. Thanks.
great breakdown- exactly what I was looking for.
Fantastic! this is exactly what I was looking for to help myself and a few friends on our "next buy"... the a6700 looks like the clear winner for my needs. wow.
Another excellent video! Great production quality with little time wasted with "intro". It has been a while since I watched an "Arthur" RUclips; they have all been informative. Starting with an NEX-6, I have long been a fan of the Sony crop-sensor line -- always wished I knew more about them -- now I do! I bought the a6400 a few years ago when I became an Author subscriber. Got the a6700 last December. Have no plans to ever go to full-frame, not ever.
Great video, I’ve been debating for a while on which one to get as I’m upgrading from a Canon M50 and decided I wanted to make the jump to Sony this time around. Your vids have been integral to making that decision, so thank you! Soon enough that A6700 will be mine 😎😎
Thank you, this is simply the best comparison video I found on youtube.
Thank you for making this very informative video. I bought the a6000 when it came out and still use it today, (mainly for taking photos, not so much video). Perhaps your brother and I think alike, make do with what we have, buy things that we need, not what we want.
You made this half hour video so interesting I watched the entire clip in one go which is rare for me. Best of all, your narrative is pleasant to listen to, no drama, no shouting like many others.
I was thinking of buying some of the Sony alpha models and this video helped a lot. Thank you 👍🏼
Great video going through the features of each camera!
Sad that it took me this long to find this channel. Great info and comparison. I'm actually a current APS-C shooter, and a Sony shooter. Just a little older with an A65 :) Definitely want to jump into mirrorless now that I'm working less. This was incredibly informative for me.
Been meaning to upgrade my a6500 so this was a huge help in seeing what to look forward to!
Great and interesting breakdown of the entire lineup! Thank you Artur 👌 And to everyone thinking about an upgrade, so basically all of us from time to time 😅... Do it, IF you really feel that you've already mastered the camera you have 😌
For a noob looking at getting into the hobby....and suffering for little to no complete comparison between models, this was an AMAZING video. thanks
Thank you for a quite comprehensive run down of Sony’s APSC line up very clear direct bravo-nice job
Great help for beginners to decide which Sony cameras to be bought !! Kudos will be sharing this video too 🙌
Great video. I own a6400 myself; it's a fantastic camera. But I also love to take pictures with vintage manual lenses. Starting from 85mm and above, IBIS is a must-have.
amazed by your lined up review👌👌👌👍👍
Thank you Arthur, got it to Sony gear because of your awesome vids. Loving it, now saving for some nice glass.
You are the APSC King! Thank you as always
Sold my A600 to get my current A6400 (wich Ill sell in a couple months to go for that new A6700) and since I got that A600 I have watched all of your videos, how time flies!!
i rarely congratulates people, but you Sr. has done the perfect analysis of the Sony lineup . Sony should be really considering your videos to explain people what they are getting for their money. Good work.
Thank you, I'm looking at buying the Sony A6100 and this really helped me.
got the a6000 2 years ago as a gift. Perfect camera to get into photography and still performs very well today!
THIS is the video I didn't know I needed. So many options to choose from in Sonyland. The FX30 is by far the best value out of all of these. And it actually shoots great stills (albeit only one at a time since no burst shooting allowed). If video is your jam better than 60% of the time, the FX30 wins every time - especially when it goes on sale for $200 off!
Recently got an A6100 per a lot of your videos the last 2 years. Settled for it over the a6400 because I got a price I couldn’t beat! Use it for hobby and family, and I’m SO happy! Appreciate your thorough videos and “real talk” around how you don’t always need the fancy new stuff, but each has strengths and weaknesses! 💪🏼
Thanks for this rundown. i can finally understand the Sony APSC line up.
Thanks really useful review, especially for some who is thinking about getting into the Sony eco-system.
A camera comparison video that is well worth my time watching. Outstanding job, Arthur! It's been a while since I've watched many of your videos. When I bought the Sony A6500, I would always watch your Sony APCS camera and lens videos, yours and "that1cameraguy" guy, until COVID slowed everything down. Nevertheless, thanks for keeping us camera enthusiasts informed.
Litterally just sold my a6400 kit and wanting to buy FX30. Top tier content.
Hell yeah! I've watched your old videos 2-3 times. This new video came out at the perfect time for me. Let's go!
What a great overview! Very helpful.
Great video as usual Arthur. How about a review of the A7S III sometime.
NOSTALGIC! The OG Alpha series comparison video was how I got to know Arthur R. VERY nice video, thanks Arthur!
Amazing video, which helped me a lot. Thank you!
I recently bought the 6400 for professional use..but i still use the NeX 7 for street photography its my very first camera and very capable on par with a6000, Im so used to it, i can navigate the menu settings even if its in Japanese language 🤓👍
I own the A6400 & the A6600. The bigger battery makes a dramatic difference when it comes to a whole day shooting. The quality of the pictures taken with these cameras is outstanding. And the autofocus is 99% reliable. The A6600 is a masterpiece and the A6700 heating problems made me return it, because it's crazy good în specs for video, but it fails at it big time! So the A6600 still rules and records video forever with no issues! Respect to the FX30 which is a beast. The funny thing about the 24 mp sensor is : the Sony A5100 that I still own, performs quite similar to this line-up in photo section. From my point of view, ZV-E10 is just a toy-video-cam. Once you touch a Sony A7III full-frame, you simply can't buy cheap plastic zv-e10, no matter the highly praised specs. And one more thing, all these cameras are less, if you forget to pair them with a proper cage! Accesories like side-handels, hot-shoes and so on are indispensable these dans! Great review! Respect!
5100 always in bag ,everywhere.
The a6600 recording like 2+ hours of 4K (25p here) on one stock battery and without overheating is a rare phenomenon I guess. I also work with 6400 and a6600, and recently added the FX30 for the security of double card slots, and well, I think a fan also helps with not overstressing the internals with heat on the long run. I often record long interviews.
Im between 6400 and zve10 any help bro
@@martonhegedusman im between 6400 zve10 and too confused to choose
@@knowwork9 A6400 for sure! Extreme photo Power! Video just as good. The only 3 things missing from ZV-E10 are: product show case, blurred background and the ease of recording commends. E10 is lighter and made like a Toy camera, the stabilisation means heavy crop, so... it's up to you. If you buy it for indoors use or to pair it with a gimbal then buy E10 and an Ulanzi second-generation cage for a better grip, it doesn't add any relevant extra weigh... E10 is no good for pictures, outdoors is a pain, but for vlogging is King with a 10-20mm lens.
It gets confusing, great video for those looking for an APS-C
Still digging my A6400. I've been rocking an E-Mount since the beginning with the NEX-3, had the F3 and NEX-6. The A6000 was an incredible step up and finally landed on my A6400.
I've considered the A6600 a few times for the IBIS but just have not as the A6400 still is great for this weekend Dad shooter
Well done bro😊you are so detailed 👍🏻 I love Sony cameras as I own 5 Sony now
Love your videos. No nonsense reviews are always the best, and do those extremely well. I wish you could branch out to Fujifilm since you favor APSC sensors.
I am amazed that you mostly bring a6000 in your recent video. i sold my a6000 as its discontineud and bought zv e10 but it was the best camera i had at past
how are you finding the zv e10?
4 month everyday watching best camera to start elivate my youtube chanel from phone camera,You are the only person made me choose the best camera.Il go with sony zv e10.Thanks man
Great presentation, Arthur! I learned some new things about the lineup too. I'm happy with ZV-E10 and A6700. (I almost bought the A6400, then the A6700 was announced, so I waited)
6400 or zve10 sir
Hi bro if i purchase Sony a6100 with cannon lens with adapter is it ok because because e mount lens are very costly
Thanks for this great video and overview.....greetings from Bavaria, germany...
Such a great video 🙌 thanks.
Love this video. Thank you for your explanation.
EPIC Comparison 💪 zv-e10 feels like gen 2.5 trying to combine some of the 2nd & 3rd gen features
I ended up buying an a6500 last year primary for product photography and also sports because on research it has the biggest buffer of all the apsc lineup. A big improvement over my a6000 which I sold for basically the same price I bought it for.
Vow what a great info of sony 6 serries line up. It really helped to comprehend all the line up in single video. Even sony would find difficult to do that. Thumbs up
I have a 6300 since 2017. I don't shoot a lot of photo's and I'm still happy with this camera so for me it's still relevant and a good performer. This was a nice overview of the Sony apsc product line !
Really great review thank you.
Great job! Thank you so much!
Best comparison video ever! Clear, easy to follow, up to the point, just the right amount of information and length. I couldn't nitpick even if I wanted. Thank you. It helps a lot.
thanks for this video, very informative!
Hello Arthur, I just subscribed to your channel, and this is the video I'm looking for. I am a beginner, and this video suits me well.
very helpful content, thank you!
great video man. You should definitely do a Full frame guide. I just upgraded from a A6300 to a A7III. Would be great to see the Full Frame lineup.
How are you finding the upgrade?
I was surprised by how large the a6700 was…you can see the small progression in size from the smaller a6000 to the ZvE10 and then the 6700. I looked at one yesterday and it has some great tools within but frankly, didn’t like the size as I was looking for something small and would be more of an EDC. Your recommendation of the 6100 (which you use for that) seems like the way to go. Maybe a 6700 for studio work. Great video btw…helpful too!
Thanks for the great introduction to all Sony APS-C cameras in the 6000 series. 💪🏼 I am completely satisfied with my a6500 plus battery grip right now. That's all you need to photograph trains. 👋🏼
Great video thank you so much!!! 🙏
Such a nice history lesson :D
Takes me back to your old reviews of sony 18-105 and 35f1.8, 10-18 which had qc issues :D Good glass was hard to come by those days.
As for the cameras I've upgraded my a6300 with a7IV... but somehow I want to go back😅
I still have my a6300 but it barely holds on. Buttons got cluncky and it glitches all the time😅 but I still love this compact format, and the image quality is solid! A7IV will be for serious projects but for everyday use I need to get another aps-c body! Appreciate the content Arthur! Keep up the good work ;)
this is what i've been waiting for!
As usual, very detailed and to the point comparison among these cameras. I currently own the a6600 and have been thinking whether I should upgrade to full frame or stay on the APS-C ecosystem.
Jesus! You did a STELLAR job with this video! WOW! Great Job and Thank you!!!
Got the a6400 because of your older video 😊 it is so goooood! 😊
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing
We need more like this man
Thanks
Arthur, thank you so much for your videos. Pure pleasure for me. Best wishes for your family and greetings from Russia. God bless you.
