I own the ZV-E10 MK1 and the a6700, and I’ve got to tell you, I used to love the ZV-E10, but when I got my hands on the a6700, I just loved it. If you have the money, it is totally worth it to buy the a6700. However, if you are a beginner, I think the ZV-E10 is a fantastic camera to start with.
Many bloggers seem to defend Sony products, even when they have flaws. I suspect Sony pays bloggers a lot. The ZV-E10 II camera is too expensive. It lacks in-body stabilization. The good stabilization only works with Sony lenses, which are pricey. This makes the ZV-E10 II not a budget-friendly option anymore
@@al3omda92 Active stabilization works also with 3rd party lenses (I own the Sigma trio). But it comes with a huge 1,5x crop. For me the major flaw of the ZV-E10 is the lack of Ibis and the poor battery life + no EVF (which would come handy in sunny days). Today Sony releases the ZV-E10 2nd gen at EUR 1000 here in Europe and still no Ibis. That's priced way too high compared to the ZV-E10 1st gen. My next camera will be the alpha 6700, without doubt.
there is 0% chance active stabilization only works with sony lenses. i have a ZV-E10 with a Sigma lens and active stabilization is available and works great.
I think a ZV-E10 II is a heavily crippled camera which suitable only for begginer vloggers who are swithching from the smartphone to a real camera. Yes, you have here many features beyond the smartphones, but definitedly if you want to take good photos in many situations, the lack of EVF, the lack of IBIS and also ergonomics and dials,etc. really worth the additional 400 bucks for buying the a6700
these two cameras aren't the same. The ZVE10ii is made for vlog, that's why it doesn't have an EVF. The A6700 is more about a hybrid. Two completely different cameras.
I think that the mark ii is crippled just as mark i if we compare the current technology. Also for vloggers, the overheating problem in hot temperature environments is crucial, so the solution is the fx30 with a built-in fan. Also, if you are a vlogger that takes photos once a while, it's a very problematic camera
The lack of IBIS, EVF, physical shutter and AI chip on the ZV-E10II are pretty big omissions, but it's also worth considering the weight because the A6700 weighs pretty much the same as the full frame A7C range.
I just do RUclips vids and make virtually no money doing it. So being a hobby video creator, the ZVE10 II was my upgrade plan. When it came out at $1000+ USD, I decided to buy either an a6400 or ZVE10 -- prices are a little wonky here in Phillipines, so just depends on which one is the best deal. Even 2nd-hand is OK. Good show as always ... Cheers
The correct launch price for ZV-E10ii under the current spec should have been $850, although I still think they intentionally cut too many corners that won't necessarily save them much cost.
5:57 Out of all the reviewers I've seen mention the electronic shutter, only you mentioned the flickering! Boy am I glad I came across your review before going for the buy, or I'd be regretting it later! 🤣
The A6700 supports the double-row of contacts on the SD card, so if you need the extra r/w speed this is it. You have to buy the SD that has the two rows of contacts, and the price is roughly doubled that of the single row of contacts.
10:07 my old Sony a700 from 2011 already does that, i was very disappointed when i got an a77II and later a7III that it didnt rotate anymore :/ I really hope all those new Features will also make it to "older" cameras like a7cII/r, a7rV, a7IV etc but looking at Sonys track record of firmware updates i probably expect too much
Hello everyone I wonder why no one is talking about which camera is best for live streaming? I think many people use system cameras for live streaming, but it seems that not many people are interested in talking about how the cameras handle live streaming.
I talked about this in my initial review. Live streaming it is fine. Live streamers only require one thing and that is a camera that is reliable and no overheating. FX30 would be best out of these two
@@JasonMorrisphotocinemaThanks so much. I saw it too. Thanks for the reply. Next question, I already have ZV E10, but want to upgrade. Should I wait for Fx30 ll, or buy now Fx30. Thank you so much for your reply in advance.
Great review as always, found an A6700 new for £1135 against ZV-E10 £998 price can be closer than you think. I have original ZV-E10 if I upgrade I will definitely go for the A6700 😎
I think you didn't mention it. ZV-E10 II has a tally light I think, which is nice. I'm still undecided which one to get, but I feel the A6700 is the better choice. There seem to be used ones on the market, fairly new, barely 50$ more than the ZV-E10 II
for table top content creator and gimbal users this is a slam dunk , esp with the better heat thermal ( which was confusing , i thought the a6700 lasted the same )
I have a6000, a5100, zv e10 m1. Lack of EVF is a bit of a problem for photography guys. Just because of I couldn't afford I bought without evf. And always kind of a regret.
@@JasonMorrisphotocinema just buy a gimbal but imo a camera which is targeting vloggers should have IBIS otherwise it doesn’t matches what its promoted to be. using it as streaming or studio cam would be just fine.
Great video! I’m considering buying the Sony A6700 camera, and I’ve heard about potential overheating issues during prolonged recording sessions. In your experience, is this something truly significant, and does it interfere with workflow, especially when shooting videos in hot environments? Any tips or solutions you would recommend?
4:25 At first I thought that this was shot with no stabilization at all! BTW, did you try to compare Active stabilization with native Sony lenses vs third party ones? I guess the footage came out so shaky because you used a third party lens.
@@JasonMorrisphotocinema you mean the test in your car? Was it shot handheld by another person or using a tripod? Anyway, I can`t tell anything from that test. Even the standard OSS did well in it. A walking test with a third party lens would be much more informative.
@@JasonMorrisphotocinema A comparison between ZV-E10II`s Active and the ZV-E1`s Dynamic Active would be perfect. Also with Sony lenses vs with third party ones
Is there any difference in both camera's 4k footage in terms of sharpness? and also does electronic shutter effect in video, specifically low light (like will I get banding in videos)?
You’ll get banding in videos in both. There is variable shutter mode to dial in the shutter speed to sync with your electronic devices to remove banding. Sharpness is pretty much the same. Footage is practically identical
I was worried that I might have buyers remorse when they initially announced the mark II-having just upgraded to the 67000 from the mark I.. After seeing the recent spate of reviews, I feel that I made the right choice. Absolutely LOVE the 6700- and I don't think I could go back to not having viewfinder.
I own Sony ZVE10 original and its great. I wanted to buy mark II. But I am very upset, that they have removed mechanical shutter! Why? I wanted to use it on videos and for photos. Is it really such big problem for photos with Sony ZVE10 mark II without mechanical shutter?
price. Removing the mechanical shutter made it cheaper to produce. the massive seller is the image quality. 10bit 4:2:2 plus 4k 60fps is very sufficient
I considered this over the A6700…until I saw it only has a digital shutter. I use my camera primarily for still photography, and having to deal with rolling shutter in stills is a total non-starter.
For travelers on the go,in my opinion,the ibis worths the difference of price.... A pity that I dont like the magenta dominant color of sonys cameras... I even prefer the blue of the lumix which have very often a better stabilisation. The fuji x100 has a single focal length....not easy to compose a picture. I like the canon colors even if I must put a little bit more blue and less yellow. Unfortunately canon is sleeping and doesnt seem to deliver something else thant big eos R.

@@matthartman7062 in my opinion 8 bit 4:2:0 4k 30fps is not even close to 10bit 4:2:2 4k 60fps. When you think about that, $300 is pocket change. Image quality upgrades are very significant
@@JasonMorrisphotocinema I completely agree. 10-bit 422 is a good improvement and brings the camera to modern standards, but shouldn’t upgrades be improvements, besting the product it replaces?
