Really great comparison! I appreciate the in-depth information on sd cards they require these information aren't immediately and easily available
Thank you for the appreciation! Yeah, the SD card issue with the A6700 bothered me a bit, so I thought it was important to mention :)
Great video. Lots of information. I know this took you a while so I appreciate your hard work.
Thank you for the recognition, and I'm happy to hear it helped! :)
Excellent video, helped me cement my decision to get the X-S20. Very informative and clear you put a lot of effort into this. Subscribed.
Glad it was helpful and thanks for the sub!
best VS video ever seen with this two cameras ! thank you
Glad you liked it!
HI MATE, LOVE THIS TEST, WOULD YOU RECOMMEND TO OVER EXPOSE FLOG 2 LIKE WE NORMALLY DO WITH SLOG3?
Yes, a stop or two is good. You could always turn on the Log assist and see how it turns out. Give you a good idea how to expose in the future and in different light circumstances.
Thanks for your great job! I know it was a hassle so thank you! What significantly lacks here is the low light performance comparison. It is one of the main questions for people choosing apsc cameras and it was the least disclosed. No comparison of lowlight in video modes. Also it is a great question whose log has better dynamic range. This question also remains unanswered. Hope you will cover these too. And I'm begging you to compare Sony a6700 with Canon R8. Noone did it, hope you will break this conspiracy. Thank you again and will be waiting for updates from you!
Thank you! For photo, I did an ISO and noise test, which you can see at 16:17. I will release a separate video where I do the same test with video. The dynamic range of both cameras is 14 stops, but you are right, I did not test this by looking at graphs.
I tested and reviewed the Canon EOS R8 as well (only written), but for me, it is not a video camera at all. It does have 4K 60fps UHD, but no IBIS. I see it more as a beginner full frame camera for photography, with some video options, which you outgrow quick because of the lack of dials and options. You can read it here: www.cameradealsonline.com/review/canon-eos-r8/
I went back and forth between these two cameras, they are both really good APS-C options. I did a bunch of my own testing and since I planned to use one of these as my B-cam to do long 4k recordings I did some testing on overheating. In a warm room the A6700 does tend to overheat easier. I tried out both cameras and went with the X-S20, the autofocus misses more than my A7iv and I wish it were weather sealed but I do have a lot of fun with the X-S20. Either would be a good option, I would probably recommend the A6700 if photography is more the use case.
One thing that impressed me was I had a few things that annoyed me with the Fuji and I noticed that there was a newer firmware. After updating the firmware a bunch of the issues were fixed. Given Sony is kind of lackluster with the firmware support, that was a little reason to go with the Fuji.
Not sure if it was mentioned but the built in flash that the Fuji has (tbf the Sony has the multi interface hotshoe) I actually used the built in Fuji flash to reflect off ice crystals in the air and it made a beautiful picture.
Good review, got a sub from me!
Ah nevermind, you did mention the X-S20 has a built in flash.
@@ironfur9150 Thank you for the sub! The Flash is unique indeed, especially since most cameras don't have this anymore. The overheating might seem less important, until it starts overheating. In that case, it is nice to know you can add the additional fan to the X-S20. Just in case; I have separate reviews on these 2 cameras as well! Where can I see your crystal picture? Which camera do you use most nowadays?
fujifilm announced that a big autofocus update is coming for the XS20 and more cameras in spring 2024
@@mdenjoyer831 Yes, I saw that too. Very much looking forward to subject tracking in video, that's been a pretty big advantage that Sony has had for awhile now.
Very good and complete information!!!
Thank you very much! I hope it helped!
This is the best comparison video of this lot in the internet. Period.
Thank you for your kind comment!
The comparable sony lens to the xf 16-55mm is the sony 16-55 f/2.8 G aps-c lens, not the full-frame 24-70mm GM. With the 16-55 G lens, the total price for both cameras would be basically identical.
Yeah that would've been a better comparison, lens wise. Still the Sony lens is $100 pricier, where the body is too. So it adds up in the end.
16 50 2.8 Sigma
Much cheaper with equivalent quality
An extensive and very informative video, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I wanted to clarify that with the latest update, my XS20 can also track subjects on video and it's great. I am in love, I recommend it without hesitation
Thank you so much! That is a very important update indeed! Thanks for sharing :)
Did you manage to collect any footage in Malawi, could you share the link. I would like to watch the video.
Yes, you can watch it here: th-cam.com/video/i6mHCPhjshM/w-d-xo.html (Shot on GH5s)
van you make a handheld stabilization comparaison of these 2 camera, compare with ibis, without ibis and with gyro data and processed after thanks
Hi! For now I can't, since the brands send me the cameras to test (for free and without directions of what I say about it). I own the x-S20, but not the A6700.
I would love to see a video on low light performance. Photo, video, etc
I just did the ISO tests. :)
How about Dynamic Range on photo and videos in lowlight and highlight?
Good one. I should make another video about that.
Excellent video!
Thank you very much!
Great video. Rotterdam is just so photogenic.
One question: I was getting advice in a pro shop today, because I wanted to get the XS-20.
He told me that for videography I should for sure take the a6700, because of the WAY better autofocus and WAAAYYY better IBIS.
Can you confirm that? I was hoping that the shaky IBIS got fixed with software updates already.
The autofocus of the A6700 is better than on the X-S20, and on the X-S20 I notice it is searching for focus from time to time. I think IBIS performance is more or less the same on both cameras. Now, I am not used to using ibis or autofocus on cameras and therefore think it doesn't really matter. It is good to practice your manual focus pulling. But of course it depends what you use the camera for. If it is for vlogging, the autofocus of the A6700 is better, but the X-S20 has good AF too.
It is possible to use eterna with Flog 2, just apply Fujifilm conversion lut
Let me try that. Thank you
Is Fujifilm good enough for video and photo work? I'm afraid there will be a heating problem. Does it really heat up like the XT4? Because I want to use it in promotional films, events, concerts, model, product photography, etc.
Yes and no. Yes as in quality and options, no in overheating possibilities. The good thing is that you can attach the external fan, which might be a game changer.
@@cameradeals I mean, it's available for work, isn't it, because my budget is enough for it. Actually, I wanted to buy a Sony a7s2, but there is a lot of price difference between them. Xs20 doesn't disappoint in the photo and video works, does it?
@YunusEmreSevuk Yeah definitely! The upside of the A7sii is the fact it is full frame and might deliver better quality in low light.
@@cameradeals Yes, it is true, but can similar photo-videography works be done with Fuji?
@@YunusEmreSevuk I think the X-S20 can get you better video resolution results even. But the A7S-series are almost unbeatable in low-light performance. One of the reasons is because it has huge pixels, but only 12MP. So, for photography you won't get big resolutions.
Nicely produced video. 👏 Being stuck to 35mm, though it is my favourite focal length, is a big turn-off for me, but all that’s moot as the camera is made of unobtainium!
Thanks for sharing!
The LCD of the x-s20 has 1.84m dots vs 1.04m dots on the a6700.
You are right, sir! I must have forgotten to change the stats when I was copying the text. Well spotted!
Also pretty sure the Sony has less than a 1x magnification for the EVF (like 0.7x or smth)
1.07x
@@cameradeals yes but the 35mm equivalent is 0.71x for the a6700, the x-s20 has a 0.93x magnification or 0.62x 35mm equivalent
I have Sony lenses. I’ll buy the a6700. In similar manner, Fuji users go for the Fuji.
Yeah that makes sense
So what would you pick?
If the cameras were priced the same, and you could get the lenses for the same price (and quality), I'd pick the Sony A6700. I love slow motion filming and I find myself occasionally in dusty environments, so the weather sealing is important to me. I own the X-S20 as well, and I am in love with the filters. But in all honesty, I am so used to RAW-shooting and editing, that I have difficulties changing to filter shooting. In 2018, I had a fast computer built, but it doesn't keep up with the 360Mb/s files; therefore I need proxies, which is annoying. But hey, that's life (and tech). Which one has your preference?
@@cameradeals the film simulations are also the main factor from the Fuji that interests me atm… but the weather sealing and the a6700 in general is what I’m attracted the most to … so I’m gonna go for the a6700 with the sigma 18-50, which will be my first real camera, so probably more than plenty… I just hope straight out of camera pics are still pretty
@@victorbmadslund The Sigma 18-50mm is the f/2.8 Contemporary right? Good lens choice! And yes, the photos out of camera are very nice indeed! Have fun!
@@cameradeals yes exactly! Thank you 🙏
Thank You
You are very welcome, thank you for watching!
Many thanks, your sub is earned! Being a video guy mainly, I got the A6700 in the end. It's annoying cos the Fuji is a nicer body I think and a cooler device all round, but the Sony AF is just voodoo compared to everyone else's.
It's kind of frustrating cos I do have a blackmagic recorder and could record BRAW too with Fuji, and plenty of the specs of the XS20 are just better and the image is very nice. But in the end, the main thing over the years that has cost me shots in both video and stills has been AF, and when people view your images they don't see the specs, but they do see if it's in focus or not 🤣
If only Fuji could nail the AF properly I would have gone that way...
Your choice and reasons make sense!
@@cameradeals It is kinda frustrating cos the Fuji has a bit more soul. If I didn't need the AF for work I'd have gone Fuji tbh .
They are making updates and putting ai into it. Lets see how all this unfolds…
thanks
You are welcome!
Since you haven't tested the ibis , can you do a video of the handheld stabilization of the XS20? with a non OIS lens, when walking panning vlogging and all,
No. :)
Fujifilm cameras are extremely hard to get nowadays, XS20 is out of stock or backordered literally everywhere! Availability should also be a key point for effective comparison. Now, I'm stuck whether to buy a6700 or wait for god knows how much longer to get the XS20!
I didn't know the XS20 is on backorder. It also depends where you live, and it could be completely different per country. Where I live, there are plenty. When I compared these cameras, they were in stock in the US and European countries, and I can't look into the future. So, for that point, it's still an effective comparison.
@@cameradeals Thank you for your reply. I am in US at the moment and Fuji XS20, X100VI and even the XT30 II are out of stock everywhere which makes me sad. Probably because of this unavailability I'm going to go with a6700. This is going to be first camera, so I hope I'll have a good experience.
The A6700 is a great camera as well. The XT50 just got released as well. Will do a review on it as soon as I get a review model ;)
@sneharkaporia547 I've been comparing these 2 and prices, and I don't think I've looked at any retailer where the Fuji was NOT in stock. Maybe some, but just clicking links on the first page of Google, it's in stock.
I take that back. Sometimes it shows but it's "backorder" in the fine print. Still, most places it's 2-5 day shipping and I'm stock. Both cameras are currently in my cart at best buy atm
@@brennan2007 Just tell me one website where XS20 with 15-45 is in stock
Fujifilm the best
I think the X-S20 have automatic subject recognition....but only in auto mode!
I've never used the auto mode and were able to use it as well :)
