I'm an international traveler and small/lightweight are the primary reasons for my camera/lens choices. There are many great cameras out there, but most are larger bodies with longer and heavier lenses. Sony's emount system has resulted in great lenses by other companies such as Sigma. Someone said recently that this camera body's technology will be relevant for years to come, and I agree. What a unique and helpful contribution to our learning platform for the Sony a6700! I loved your organization in the video around shooting each day, and describing what you learned.
Agreed, it's crazy to see how far emount has come and I'm glad Sigma and Tamron are adding such great compact options! Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you found it helpful/enjoyable!
I am a hairstylist and I bought the Sony ZV E10 Mark II and was thinking about changing to this for salon content. I was surprised to see the salon footage, that was all I needed to see plus your recommendations loooool. Thanks for sharing!
The Sony 16-55 2.8 is def worth it since it sort of dips in the wide angle territory. Yes the lens is heavy, but in effect you get images that are sharp across the frame even in the corners. To most people just starting out tho, the sigma 18-50 2.8 is enough.
The Sony stabilization is only usable for photo mode. As long as you don't move it's fine for video, for everything else you will need a gimbal. I had a Panasonic GH5 once and it was so much better than any of my Sonys.
Oh really? I hope I haven't gotten a dud...do you mind sharing your autofocus settings with me? I'd love to try it out and see if I still have problems
@@boywithacamerasounds like you got a dud. I've had the 18-50 for nearly a year now and I can't recall ever missing autofocus or dealing with much distortion.
I've mostly been using it on my a6400 with the old Sony focus settings as I only just got my a6700. My a6700 autofocus settings have just been left on default
LONG time Fuji user and early adopter here. Love my XT5 and curious about the Nikon, but considering a leap to Sony (A6700). I’ve been shooting since the 90’s. Shot lots of film back in the day. I’ve shot every camera system from Canon to Nikon, Fuji, Olympus and beyond. Never tried Sony (other than my little ZV1 which is awesome). Curious about an A6700 or something really small and ergonomic. I do wear glasses so I need an EVF. Love mirrorless. I shoot headshots and I make a living at it. Currently shooting XT5’s but the autofocus is broken. If they don’t fix by new year I’m done. What camera system would you choose for full time portraiture? I have a weak back and shoulder and I’m 53 so I’m looking to go as light, ergonomic and fast as possible. Lighter the better. I shoot 75% natural light & 25% in a studio. Occasionally I shoot a family session, usually entirely with my X100V’s. I’m looking to change it up, but stay light and fast. I don’t need a tank I need a feather. I would love your thoughts!
Light as possible with good autofocus, the Sony A7C series (for better ISO performance in natural light) or the a6700 would be my guess! X100V's for family sessions sounds like a treat--if you're making those work I'm sure you'll get along fine with one of the smaller Sony bodies. One thing to note is that I'm not sure how well Sony plays with Godox flashes--some friends have zero issues, I had a few, so not sure if that will impact your autofocus experience if you're using Godox. Where the compact Sony cameras fall short is the EVF unfortunately so you may need to weigh its importance to you! Fuji's hard to beat here in the well-rounded experience for photography and weight. I am curious about your problems with the autofocus given that your main usage is portraiture. Is it an issue with eye tracking? If you're able to compromise a bit on the weight, you may find the Nikon ZF or Z6iii to be good options, but I don't have much experience with them. The Sony A7 series might actually be your best bet as they'll offer a better EVF experience than the compact bodies, but have the same autofocus capabilities and remaining relatively lightweight. The Canon R6ii is an extremely solid contender as well, though you'll need to be careful with what lenses you pick up as those can get quite hefty. The R6ii autofocus is great, EVF solid from what I recall, and the body is on the lighter side for full-frame cameras. An extreme route could be to forego autofocus altogether and go the manual focus route, but with a rangefinder. I actually found myself hitting more shots with my rangefinder camera vs. the autofocus on the Nikon Z8 (albeit still adjusting to this camera) when covering an event recently so it is definitely something that can be learned. Hope that gives you some useful information or ideas! Happy to connect further too if you want to hit me on instagram: @joonrho
Channel name should be "Man with a camera" lol. Super experienced, clean, and thoughtful shots. I just got my A6700 stolen in Berlin lol hopefully can get it again one day. Subscribed!
Haha yeah I need to revisit that name now that my knees and back hurt! Appreciate the kind words and so sorry to hear about your a6700, what a damn shame! Hope you end up with an amazing camera
I don't know if anyone will be able to, but can someone send me a 5 second clip of this cam? In slog 3 all I 24fps. Max bitrate.? I'm thinking of getting this camera but there's no way for me to test it out first. It would be greatly appreciated 👍
Yo bro your vlogs look amazing! I'm thinking downgrading from the A7iv to the a6700 soon was all of this footage straight out the camera or you used a lut?
Appreciate you! I typically shooting S-Log3 and then either use my own LUTs (joonrho.com/shop/p/base-lut-sony-s-log3), Phantom LUTs, or grade manually through CSTs.
That was a fantastic demo of the camera and the usability experience - but my biggest complaint was the speed of the photos and various video samples - wish the short clips were 3X longer to provide more time to really take in the image. Really loved the car and forgot I was watching a camera review. So many of the scenes were total eye candy. Glad you emphasized the complexity of modern cameras - a challenge for you as a professional for non pros like myself it will be quite a learning curve. I think that compact sigma and other similar lenses are awesome and a critical differentiator over cell phones - zoom lenses to frame a subject near or far. Really enjoyed the color grade too. 5:06 is this really video from iPhone 8? 6:12 "I'm keeping it" not sure if you were referring to the camera or the lens.
Great review. I am considering selling my R6 II for the a6700. I am no longer doing client photography so I just want something compact for family documentary type stuff.
Appreciate you! I sold my R6 ii for the 6700 as well. Definitely give it a few days to adjust is all I'll say haha the R6ii just might be my favourite all-around camera at the moment. It might be worth trying out the R6ii with a compact lens and see how that feels? The compactness of the Sony is definitely hard to beat though!
@@boywithacamera agreed! I do have the RF35 1.8, but the 70-200 or 24-105 has lived on it for paid work. I previously had the a6400 and a6600 as well as A7IV so I am pretty familiar with the Sony system. As I shift out of paid work, my priorities will be something small and light, with a large selection of affordable but still quality glass which is why Sony APSC is calling me back. The R6II is an absolute beast and a money maker for sure, just hard to justify it for me as a personal hobby camera.
Have you had any overheat issues? Got my R6 II sold and ready to pull the trigger but the overheating seems so inconsistent with reviews all across RUclips.@@boywithacamera
Hey sorry for the late reply! Have you pulled the trigger? Zero issues with overheating, but the inconsistency is most likely due to use-cases varying widely with this camera. I barely touch 4K60 and I am not shooting jobs with this camera so I doubt overheating will ever become an issue for me. As long as you buy from a place with a solid return policy though, you can always see firsthand whether or not it will be an issue for you.
@@boywithacamera mine will be here tomorrow along with the Tamron 17-70. Ordered from B&H so will be good to return if needed but my guess is for my desired used it will be fine. I’ve used Sonys 1080 120 on lots of highlight videos so if needed I can continue that route to avoid overheat. Looking forward to getting it in and shooting with it.
Thank you Assata! Yes, I grade manually through a colour managed workflow. I've just created an S-Log3 LUT based on my usual workflow here: joonrho.com/shop/p/base-lut-sony-s-log3 Please let me know if you have any questions!
I briefly briefly mentioned it, but I actually never came across overheating. The camera does get warm though and I'm a light user in that I don't shoot 4k60 extensively. I haven't used it in a gig context so I wouldn't take my experience as a good indicator of the camera's overheating. For casual shooting and 4k24 though, no problems that I noticed. :)
Thank you! I don't have anything available, but sounds like I'll need to look into it 🙌 I've been dialling in this particular look for a few months now so might have something ready soon. Shoot me a message on IG if you'd be down to test something out in the near future. :) @boywithacamera.co
Great, honest review dude. With your ear to the camera can you hear the hum of the IBIS? My internal mic pics it up, pretty annoying. Im on a super small compact setup so no shotgun for me.
Thank you! I never noticed it so I put my ear right up against the camera body after reading your comment. I only hear a consistent faint fan-like noise. I can't imagine this being louder than ambient noise around me so I'm curious what your camera sounds like! Have you compared to a display unit in-store?
@@boywithacamera i've asked a few other youtubers and it seems pretty common. Maybe I shouldn't stay up so late when my house is so quiet! Noticed your 16-50mm does the same as mine. Right hand side distorted in a flat focus plane (probably at f3.5). Notice the flat line of bottles on the shelf at 1:59. Mid and left is pretty good, right hand side has lots of blur. Once you notice that its super annoying! Have you noticed? Only really obvious at low F and wide (16-20mm ish).
Thanks for this very helpful video.. Can we make digital zoom on sony a6700 at 120fps or at 240fps for FHD or 4k ? (Any of these combination, after turn on digital zoom in settings)
Would you suggest getting the body only + sigma lens for vlog+some landscapes videos? Besides that can we learn more about the correct settings for best video and photo? I’m new to this and wanna get the 6700
If your primary focus is vlogging/landscape, it might be worth looking at wider options like the Tamron 11-20(I think that's what it is?) or the Sony 11mm, 10-18, etc. If you still want the reach then the Sigma 18-50 might be a solid option minus the distortion at 18mm. And noted, I'll work on figuring out the best settings that work for me!
I'd choose this over the A7C because of the improved autofocus and the fact that it has 10-bit video. I don't have firsthand experience with the A7C II, but if you have the budget, that might be a good way to go as it will perform a bit better if you're in a lowlight setting due to the larger sensor size. I feel like the a6700 performs well enough for most people though, so you might be better off spending the extra money on lenses, lighting, audio, etc.
Damn I shoulda waited before grabbing mine then! I wouldn't be surprised if it's because the A7C II was announced shortly after and the overheating videos on RUclips (though I haven't really run into it myself)
@@boywithacameraI think the A7CII is, in many ways, the ff of this camera. But there are things this camera can do that A7CII can't like 4K60 no crop (consistent framing), 4K120, and of course the more compact lenses. I think the deciding factor is asking if you want ff enough to accept the 4K60 crop & (some) larger lenses but also gain better heat management.
@@boywithacamera Yes, I saw another video of yours to set slog2 and how you expose it. Do you have something similar with slog 3. Thanks for responding.
Ah, gotcha! I don't have a video ready yet, but I'll probably work on one soon. It's similar to how I expose S-Log2. I set my zebras to around 95 and expose as high as I can. In post, I bring down the exposure and use one of the LUTs I made. Hope that helps in the meantime :)
Hmmmm I think fx30 + 18-50 + 1020/11/Tamron 11-20. I haven't used e1 so not sure, but I think they're all good! A6700 is good too though and less money. No wrong decision 🤔
@@boywithacamera Hey yeah, would love to hear about any issues you might have had with the camera, i know you said it hasnt had any overheating issues, In regards to that Would like to hear about how you use it, do you shoot 4k 24p videos as standard and for how long? Do you use the 4k 60p alot? what kind of lens would you use with it? Hows battery life?
That's probably the next video I'll make since I've done a few gigs with it now. I know people are harping on the overheating a lot, but I've had zero issues with that so I don't know if I just got lucky. I shoot 4k24 95% of the time with the H.265 codec. One gig was essentially a 26 minute continuous 4k24 shot indoors (I broke it up into 3 clips in case overheating was actually an issue) and no issues there. Another was a 4 hour photo/video event, another a 3-4 hour photoshoot with strobes. Lens mostly Sigma 18-50, battery life is decent (not amazing, but it hasn't bothered me) and I have 1 Sony, 2 third-party batteries. Are there specific use-cases you want to know more about? I'll try to include that in the video.
@@boywithacamera Hey tnx for getting back to me! I appreciate it. the h.265 codec is the 4.2.2 10 bit? standard or one higher? Also what kind of SD card do you need to record 4k 24p, 4k 60p, 4k 120p. I heard you needed higher end ones. Or did i hear wrong? How long does the battery life last comparison between OG and 3rd party. Have you tried using it as a webcam through usb hows the low light performance. What kind of lens would pair well with this camera. Do you think there would be sales for this camera during christmas? Im hoping to see if i can get a deal on it? all of this would be pretty good talking points.
If you're just starting out the kit lens (16-50) would be a great place to start to get a feel for what you like. If you want to start with a lens, the Sigma 18-50 would be my choice as it has a constant f2.8 aperture. Cheers!
I just got the a6700 “upgraded” from a6600 and I’ve barely used it. I went on a trip and was clueless on the viewfinder on photos because even though I was on photo manual it would display as slog 3 and I was like wtf?? Thought it was defective but I guess it’s a setting lmao. I feel like a boomer rn. Anyways I think I have to do what you did and pick up the camera daily or every other day and just use it so I can get used to it. I do love the 10 bit! Main reason I upgraded from a66 and also the flip out screen was so cool for those lower shots
@9:42 "Old Age...and how difficult it is to learn new things" LOL. If your age is old, and learning new things is hard at this point, I can only imagine when you roll into your late twenties? Thirties?

I fix my Sigma 18-50 f2.8 distortion on my FX30
You can go to camera settings and find Lens Compensation: Distortion Comp. set to AUTO
Thanks for the tip! I see a huge difference--didn't even realize I had it off
@@boywithacameracomplexity - so many moving parts and settings.
The Sony 16-55 2.8 is def worth it since it sort of dips in the wide angle territory. Yes the lens is heavy, but in effect you get images that are sharp across the frame even in the corners. To most people just starting out tho, the sigma 18-50 2.8 is enough.

Maybe a hidden benefit is - less movement in video - I'm a big fan of tripod shots or handheld without moving and minimizing pans.
I'm surprised about your performance with the 18-50, I can't remember a time using that lens where I've noticed the autofocus missing focus

Hi
Did you use Active Steadyshot on this footage? Thanks
Hey there, I believe it was a mix of active and the basic one. I think I had active on by mistake for some of these shots.
No better way to get to learn a new camera than just shooting on it everyday!
Very true!
Amazing video! Thanks for such in detail and person experience vlog!
Appreciate it, thanks for your time and hope it was helpful!
Would you suggest getting the body only + sigma lens for vlog+some landscapes videos? Besides that can we learn more about the correct settings for best video and photo? I’m new to this and wanna get the 6700
If your primary focus is vlogging/landscape, it might be worth looking at wider options like the Tamron 11-20(I think that's what it is?) or the Sony 11mm, 10-18, etc.
If you still want the reach then the Sigma 18-50 might be a solid option minus the distortion at 18mm.
And noted, I'll work on figuring out the best settings that work for me!
Would you recommend to choose this, the A7C, or A7C II?
I'd choose this over the A7C because of the improved autofocus and the fact that it has 10-bit video. I don't have firsthand experience with the A7C II, but if you have the budget, that might be a good way to go as it will perform a bit better if you're in a lowlight setting due to the larger sensor size. I feel like the a6700 performs well enough for most people though, so you might be better off spending the extra money on lenses, lighting, audio, etc.
Amazing review 😮
Many thanks!
*Not gonna Lie I've seen ALOT of these used on B&H which is strange considering it was supposed to be their newest APS-C camera*
Damn I shoulda waited before grabbing mine then! I wouldn't be surprised if it's because the A7C II was announced shortly after and the overheating videos on RUclips (though I haven't really run into it myself)
@@boywithacameraI think the A7CII is, in many ways, the ff of this camera. But there are things this camera can do that A7CII can't like 4K60 no crop (consistent framing), 4K120, and of course the more compact lenses. I think the deciding factor is asking if you want ff enough to accept the 4K60 crop & (some) larger lenses but also gain better heat management.
Was this shot around Surrey BC?
Yep! A lot of the footage is from around there
Great video, do you have a workflow for slog 3 in a6700? Thanks
Thanks! Do you mean how I expose when shooting and how I grade it?
@@boywithacamera Yes, I saw another video of yours to set slog2 and how you expose it. Do you have something similar with slog 3. Thanks for responding.
Ah, gotcha! I don't have a video ready yet, but I'll probably work on one soon. It's similar to how I expose S-Log2. I set my zebras to around 95 and expose as high as I can. In post, I bring down the exposure and use one of the LUTs I made. Hope that helps in the meantime :)
안녕하세요 영상 8 사진2 인데
6700 에 시그마 1850 2.8
브이로그화각 1020pz or 11.8
이 베스트일까요?
아니면 e1 1635pz f4
동적액티브도 가끔 사용..
이 가장 나을까요 전자식셔터밖에없어서 아쉽긴한데 ㅜㅜ
Hmmmm I think fx30 + 18-50 + 1020/11/Tamron 11-20.
I haven't used e1 so not sure, but I think they're all good! A6700 is good too though and less money. No wrong decision 🤔
this is awesome, im realllyy looking into this camera, and the samyang f2 lens for vlogging and landscapes,
Let me know if you have any questions about the camera!
@@boywithacamera Hey yeah, would love to hear about any issues you might have had with the camera, i know you said it hasnt had any overheating issues, In regards to that Would like to hear about how you use it, do you shoot 4k 24p videos as standard and for how long? Do you use the 4k 60p alot? what kind of lens would you use with it? Hows battery life?
That's probably the next video I'll make since I've done a few gigs with it now. I know people are harping on the overheating a lot, but I've had zero issues with that so I don't know if I just got lucky. I shoot 4k24 95% of the time with the H.265 codec. One gig was essentially a 26 minute continuous 4k24 shot indoors (I broke it up into 3 clips in case overheating was actually an issue) and no issues there. Another was a 4 hour photo/video event, another a 3-4 hour photoshoot with strobes.
Lens mostly Sigma 18-50, battery life is decent (not amazing, but it hasn't bothered me) and I have 1 Sony, 2 third-party batteries. Are there specific use-cases you want to know more about? I'll try to include that in the video.
@@boywithacamera Hey tnx for getting back to me! I appreciate it. the h.265 codec is the 4.2.2 10 bit? standard or one higher?
Also what kind of SD card do you need to record 4k 24p, 4k 60p, 4k 120p.
I heard you needed higher end ones. Or did i hear wrong?
How long does the battery life last comparison between OG and 3rd party.
Have you tried using it as a webcam through usb
hows the low light performance.
What kind of lens would pair well with this camera.
Do you think there would be sales for this camera during christmas? Im hoping to see if i can get a deal on it?
all of this would be pretty good talking points.
im getting this as my first camera and cant decide if i should get the sony 16-50, sigma 18-50 or the sony 18-135?
If you're just starting out the kit lens (16-50) would be a great place to start to get a feel for what you like. If you want to start with a lens, the Sigma 18-50 would be my choice as it has a constant f2.8 aperture. Cheers!
@@boywithacamera How about the 16mm sigma ?

I just got the a6700 “upgraded” from a6600 and I’ve barely used it. I went on a trip and was clueless on the viewfinder on photos because even though I was on photo manual it would display as slog 3 and I was like wtf?? Thought it was defective but I guess it’s a setting lmao. I feel like a boomer rn.
Anyways I think I have to do what you did and pick up the camera daily or every other day and just use it so I can get used to it.
I do love the 10 bit! Main reason I upgraded from a66 and also the flip out screen was so cool for those lower shots
flash will be work with this camera? )
No built-in flash, but external flash should work no problem. :)
the car being like a Leica is actually hilarious
A7cii 😊
Want 😂
Does atoms v work on a6700
Hmm not sure! I would assume so since there's micro-hdmi, but not sure if it'd be worth the risk with that kind of connection
@9:42 "Old Age...and how difficult it is to learn new things" LOL. If your age is old, and learning new things is hard at this point, I can only imagine when you roll into your late twenties? Thirties?
Haha I'm actually 30, but things are looking bleak all the same!
When he say he have use Alot of ff and leica Line before..😊 but still good content he make..👍👍👍
I know what you mean. Sony cameras are far more of a functional design then the Fuji say.
