Sony is just absolutely slaying with their apsc game lately. One thing that is imo one of the absolute best and most important features of it is actually its ibis. It just makes it so much more capable with everything thats not bright daylight.
@@mjsvitek I mean, you can get a7R series and use them in crop mode. It's even better because you get both the full frame sensor and aps-c mode, a better body and a dual card slot
@@mjsvitek i like those bodies a lot. if i have to do a extended shoot i just put a grip cage on it and make it more comfortable. the a6400 is my current main camera
Great video! I like the perspective from a photographer who actually uses it and pushes its limits and is not just gear review. No one can look at your photos or footage and think that they will have an unusable piece of gear. That camera looks awesome I hope I can buy it one day!
@wizardowlgenius7186 I actually have the A7M4 and looking for a second body, travel and for wildlife, can get that extra reach. I am debating between A7Cii which is a smaller A7M4, for $2200, or go for the A6700 (better grip, better rolling shutter, 4K 60 no additional crop so 26mp vs. 14mp for cropping the 33mp) for $1400!
The A74 is a good camera many use for videography. But it lacks the new tracking technology found in the a6700 and A7R5. If macro, insect and animal photography is something you like to do, the a6700 is a fantastic choice. I find it more satisfying than using a FF camera. I bought the A74 and sold it because the a6700 is a superior camera despite the smaller sensor.
You bought the camera already ? I’d suggest go out there and use it . Shoot with it . Practice more and you can have your own thoughts about it . Practice practice more .
Mate there is no way you actually did this video, even shooting pictures with the Sony 70-350mm after I‘ve just mentioned it in the comments on your last video. Haha stoked AF. Thanks so much and great video as usual man. Have a good day!
I've been looking forward to this review! My answer on "FF or APS-C?" is Both! I use an a6600 and it's pretty difficult to give up on the extra reach for the better low light performance of a FF...so I want both. I want an a6700 and an a7CII because I like the small form factor and the better auto focus. The EVF is good enough, one card slot is enough, 10 fps is enough and even a 24 mp sensor is enough. If you do it everything right, it's crazy how much you can crop a 24 mp image. All these are good enough and make enjoying wildlife photography possible. Thanks for the review! Ohh, and the E 70-350 mm lens is amazing. I love it. Perfect light weight setup!
Ive got setup a6700 with 200-600 and its great for wildlife quite light i can do handheld af is really good sometimes struggles with branches but like others. Most importatnt its quite afordable set
I looked at it as I like Sony but am going to replace my G9 with a G9ii because as a wildlife photographer I need good autofocus, high fps and rolling shutter that isn't bad
Great review Olle and nice footage, I recently sold my A7IV and bought an a6700 after trying it for a few months. I was looking for a light setup for travel photos and wildlife and with the Sigma 1.4 primes for APS-C and the Sony 100-400 I can have all I want in a small and light package 😁 One thing you may not know regarding when the Sony a6700 (as other mirrorless) focus on the background instead of the subject is that in the a6700 (in my Sony a7IV or Sony a9 this option don't exist) you can activate a manual focus override function that works all the time, this way, anytime you need to readjust focus while in autofocus mode, you can turn the focus ring and the a6700 changes automatically to MF until you stop moving the ring, is a great way to readjust focus manually when the camera needs a bit of help
@@ollenilssonen your welcome bro i follow u on instagram and i use the lumix g9 (60 photos per second.) If i move to sony what camera+lens should i get for a sub 1600 euro budget
Love the review, but I really enjoyed your choice of music in the background, while still hearing the rustling of your windbreaker. It brought me back to the time I was in Olympic National Park and the beautiful PNW.
Sony is positioning the 6000 series as a great secondary camera for A7/9/1 owners while being a great only camera for anyone in Beginner to enthusiast user,
I’m so unsure what to do. I used to own a7III paired with Sony 200-600. Loved it. I want to get another setup and I’m torn between a6700 and the a7III again. What would you do? I’ll be shooting everything. Wildlife, hiking, pets, portraits. Video and photo.
The a6700 is just all around an almost perfect ASPC camera, I just wish it had a slightly better LCD screen (1.8m like the XS20) and an second card slot. If it had those 2 things, I'd honestly use it for almost everything. It also has the highest dynamic range of any ASPC sensor, it's like 12.3 stops at iso 100, which is extremely good and in video it's 14 stops. As for the longer filming, Ulanzi makes a $30 fan accessory for the a6700 and it extends the filming time in 4k60 to almost 2 hours.
Yep, second card slot and that's all I could really ask for from a camera, I think. Especially now with some fast lens options like the 27mm 1.2 or 75mm f1.2 and the Sigma f1.4 range.
The odd number a6000 series (6700, 6500 etc ) focus more on video upgrades while retaining most/all the photography features of the previous model. With this in mind I cant wait to see what the a6800 brings us. Better IBIS, new evf, new joystick, 2 cardslots and maybe even a new higher MP sensor and an increase in fps. If sony can nail these things the a6000 line will be insane.
That's a great in-depth video and cover almost all the topics related to wildlife. I wanna know how's sony doing with firmware update with this a6700 ?
Thanks for the info about using the touchscreen to AF. I have an a7cii and have tried using the screen before when using the elf but it was very inconsistent and ineffective. I don't think I knew you could change the touchscreen area. It was set to Right 1/2. However I just changed this to Right 1/4 and now this works consistently and efficiently - a game changer for me.
I have the a7iv, which is considerable older in AF design. Would like to get the same AF as the a7RV plus the occasional 4K 100p video, so this would be perfect. Especially since I will be using the same lenses (100-400 and 200-600) for this camera, same batteries, same SD cards.
Amazing breakdown for someone that wants to get back in the game. my training camera is ancient with no features and i couldnt care less about bout comparisons and tech-spec. I want the comfiest buttons and concealable. Your film of the owls is dream-quality footage, i didnt think that was possible under 2k.
I also like the fact that the 26mp is something your not against, I asked a wildlife photographer who currently uses the A1 if he planned on getting the latest A9iii with the global shutter etc, but he instantly dismissed it due to only having 24mp and said he'd said till the next version of the A1 comes along. It's each to there own and about using what equipment is right for you, but to grumble at 24mp seems silly as Canon and Nikon's top spec DSLR camera's that I believe you can still buy from new at the £5k+ price tag only come with 20mp lol
You also have to think that he has to crop much more to get the reach of the apsc with the same lens. The a1 in crop mode is 21 megapixels. The a9ii in crop mode is like 10mp. As long as you get your composition right the a6700 is a beast of a camera. I think the gripe of low mp FF cameras is having to crop for the reach when shooting wildlife. With sports it's not a problem. I think the 6700 is one of the best wildlife setups imo. Extra reach and glass like the Sony 70-350 which is effectively a 105-525 that is small and light with stabilization. 200-600 that is FF equivalent of 900mm at 26mp is awesome as well. The a9 is 10mp at 900mm.
I use an A7RV and I am having a hard time justifying the purchase of an a6700 because the A7RV APS-C mode is the same as the a6700. That said, I would love a smaller form factor for travel. If sony had made a 30 megapixel APS-C sensor or incorporated a stacked APS-C sensor, I would have bought it in a heartbeat. I have been thinking about a Sony 70-350 lens to save weight. I would love to see a comparison between the 70-350 and 100-400 GM on a 6700.
Really can't decide between the A7iv and the A6700 at the moment to get with the 200-600mm Sony lens. Which has the best autofocus and is one SD port really a problem? Thanks
3:56 I was a long time A6000 user, after Nex 5R and at the time, liked the usability. Mainly because of video, I am now on X-h2s and I could never ever go back to a cam with practical no buttons. If one only shoot ONE TYPE, like sports, or portraits or kids, on in ONE type of video - this could be "ok". The X-H2s has 7 (seven) custom profiles, plus several buttons, e.g. for AF mode/+ eye/animal/etc, ISO, WB, .rec etc For me this = to - 6.2 open gate - DCI 4k 60 - DCI 4K 120 - 17:9 FHD 240 - BKT photo - panorama photo - pre-capture highframerate 15-40 FPS by the click of the turn. Plus the usual PASM/video, of course
I just love the image coming off this sensor, it seems like a slight color science update vs the a7s3 or a7iv. I sadly dnt have them but when shooting side by side, i find richer tones with it. Please do us a comparison vs the a7iv or fx3 sensors ;)
Bought the A6700 last year but haven't tried it out much in favour of my full frame bodies. The camera was mainly intended for Macro use (focus stacking capabilities) and for video with a budget entry to 4K 120. Now, as the majority of the pictures I take are wildlife and the full frames has been "welded" to a 600mm f/4.0 GM with 1.4x TC the swap to the A6700 didn't get me exited until I decoupled the TC and mounted the camera directly to 600 mm (900mm f/4.0 Eqv). The results and general look of the images of birds in action was for me very pleasant surprising. I now have 900 mm f/4.0 without TC as previous 840mm f/5.6 on full frame. I have not seen any videos of matching the A6700 with the 600 GM and are planning do to one in the near future. Thanks for a interesting video
@@pentagramyt417 correct but I want to keep the ISO levels low and still have the reach. If the TC yields ISO3200, it will be ISO1600 on F/4 competing with the FF f/5.6 with the TC and 840mm. Have some more testing to do
what does it mean "for fun" lol, you can easily do wildlife with that camera, and professional photography like sport or something with a7iv. Both can be done professionaly. That are different genres.
Are you sponsored bu Arcteryx or something ? You have a LOT of different jackets from them :O :) Been looking at that brand but its hella expensive here in Denmark.
@@ollenilssonen Yeah they arent really cheaper in Sweden compared to Denmark which is really strange, cause most clothes are so cheap in Sweden compared to here. But thanks 👌
For landscape photography with this camera, what lens would you recommend? Could the Sony FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA OSS Vario Tessar T be good? If that's OK, do I also need to buy an adapter? ...Or could you recommend something else (even cheaper)?
im trying to shoot 4k 120 with my a6700 using SLOG3. At iso 800 i got noise. I went to 640 and got noise. I tried 200 and there wasn't enough light in daylight. Im shooting at 10:00am with sun coming up.
What a good video, I liked that you mentioned many things about bird photography, and I want to have that camera like the first one, instead of a phone, although I do have to save good money, greetings from Colombia!
You know what would be crazy? This camera with the 300mm f2.8 lens. That is effectively a 450mm f4 lens on a camera with crazy good AF and video capabilities and feather light and easily handheldable. Throw on a 1.4TC to make it become 630mm f5.6. Probably overheating after 3 minutes of 120fps 4k video, but oh well.
the Axx00 lineup isn't pro-level which makes sense as to why they only have 1 SD card slot but how much would it cost to take out another small rectangle in the side and solder an SD card port to the PCB? I also have only had 3 SD cards fail me in 20 years and they were all PNY since then I have had Sandisk and a Samsung.
I always get amazed with your shots and storytelling but man, i instantly fell in love within a few seconds with this one. It is just something else, something special i feel. 🤍
As your most likely aware I'd imagine quality, especially with noise is going to depend on the glass too, if your using good quality G master glass etc should be better than using cheaper glass. I started on the a6000 and still have but rarely use these days mainly due to the rubber grip coming off it at the side and the batteries life with the old style batteries and the smaller grip. I just came back off holiday and took my old cheapish Tamron 18-200 vc apsc lens, and even in the sun of Spain some images look a bit noisy due to it only using the central part of my sensor on my a7iii. I would consider this as a replacement for the a7iii at some point as I'm just a hobbyist and the extra reach would be welcome especially on my 70_200 and 150_600 sigma sport lenses. Great video as always.
Hi, I would like to start my adventure with wildlife photography. I used Nikon before, some time ago I had the opportunity to use Sony a6500 while hiking in the mountains and I really liked working with it. I am asking for advice whether I should choose Sony A7 III or A6700. I will be grateful for your help!
What do you recommend doing if you don't have much wild life around you and cannot drive to find wildlife. I've always wanted to be a wildlife photography just don't know how to find the wildlife
Im thinking about buying a Fujifilm X-H2S with Fujifilm Fujinon XF 150-600mm as my first camera, i have very little experience so the tracking will be helping alot in the beginning. you think this will be a good choise ?
Fantastic video Olle. I loved the opening sequence 👏🏽👏🏽🔥 🔥 🔥 I'm really impressed. If you do another brand comparison, please go for Nikon - they offer the best range of long lenses & Sony need to up their game (or Sigma will do it for them 🤣)
Great video! I have the Sony Alpha 6300 and the Tamron 150-500 mm and i really can't decide between this and the 7IV. My main problem with the 6300 is its poor light performance because I cant go higher than Iso 6400. How big of a difference was it in the test? If you could only have one camera for everything would you go with this or the 7IV?
imho as Wildlife cameras come about for me, it would go in this order. A6700 < A7CR < A7RV < A1 But for general day to day + some decent Wildlife All APSC cameras newer than a6000 < A7Cii < A7iv
I own a Sony A6700 and I'm very happy as landscape photographer with this model.
What lens do you recommend for Landscape on this model factoring the APSC crop.
@@TravAlligator same question here.
I have A6700 for landscape, hiking, Birding, and I’m proud of it
What lenses do you use?
Tamron 70-300 and kit 16-50
Should I buy it also
Also I have 6700 with tamron 18-300
What do you think about a6700 vs a7r iii ?
Sony is just absolutely slaying with their apsc game lately. One thing that is imo one of the absolute best and most important features of it is actually its ibis. It just makes it so much more capable with everything thats not bright daylight.

I own an A6400 and a 200-600 mm, with a crop factor that's an amazing zoom. I really recommend that or these things shown in the video.

The X-H2s has 7 (seven) custom profiles, plus several buttons, e.g. for AF mode/+ eye/animal/etc, ISO, WB, .rec etc
For me this = to
- 6.2 open gate
- DCI 4k 60
- DCI 4K 120
- 17:9 FHD 240
- BKT photo
- panorama photo
- pre-capture highframerate 15-40 FPS
by the click of the turn.
Plus the usual PASM/video, of course
if u using the 200-600 then might as well get a FE body
would like to hear ur experience w/ an APS-C lens
Great review ! This camera seems like a great compromise for prica and what you are getting out of it
I just love the image coming off this sensor, it seems like a slight color science update vs the a7s3 or a7iv. I sadly dnt have them but when shooting side by side, i find richer tones with it. Please do us a comparison vs the a7iv or fx3 sensors ;)
Bought the A6700 last year but haven't tried it out much in favour of my full frame bodies. The camera was mainly intended for Macro use (focus stacking capabilities) and for video with a budget entry to 4K 120. Now, as the majority of the pictures I take are wildlife and the full frames has been "welded" to a 600mm f/4.0 GM with 1.4x TC the swap to the A6700 didn't get me exited until I decoupled the TC and mounted the camera directly to 600 mm (900mm f/4.0 Eqv). The results and general look of the images of birds in action was for me very pleasant surprising. I now have 900 mm f/4.0 without TC as previous 840mm f/5.6 on full frame. I have not seen any videos of matching the A6700 with the 600 GM and are planning do to one in the near future. Thanks for a interesting video
But then you have 1260 mm with x1.4 TC and 5.6 light on your A6700.
@@pentagramyt417 correct but I want to keep the ISO levels low and still have the reach. If the TC yields ISO3200, it will be ISO1600 on F/4 competing with the FF f/5.6 with the TC and 840mm. Have some more testing to do
I would love to see what type of images you could do using the sony a6400 that would be amazing... great video as usual 👌
Thank you for sharing Olle, I really enjoy your content on your channel. I also have the 6700 and a7IV but I only use mine for fun.
what does it mean "for fun" lol, you can easily do wildlife with that camera, and professional photography like sport or something with a7iv. Both can be done professionaly. That are different genres.
Keep your work you keep your heart and soul
Quick question.Why the same sony lens(200-600) priced differently at some sites? Does it have a different model with the same mm(200-600)
Are you sponsored bu Arcteryx or something ? You have a LOT of different jackets from them :O :)
Been looking at that brand but its hella expensive here in Denmark.
Haha I wish, I really enjoy their clothing. But no, they are not sponsoring me :)
@@ollenilssonen Yeah they arent really cheaper in Sweden compared to Denmark which is really strange, cause most clothes are so cheap in Sweden compared to here.
But thanks 👌
Dude....can you please test the S24 ultra camera....like in every perspective....curious about how it'll perform when specifically u test it
For landscape photography with this camera, what lens would you recommend?
Could the Sony FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA OSS Vario Tessar T be good? If that's OK, do I also need to buy an adapter? ...Or could you recommend something else (even cheaper)?
Nice Video, I definitely want to try this camera and I'm looking forward to you checking out other camera brands and your opinion on them...
im trying to shoot 4k 120 with my a6700 using SLOG3. At iso 800 i got noise. I went to 640 and got noise. I tried 200 and there wasn't enough light in daylight. Im shooting at 10:00am with sun coming up.
I was looking into buying this camera and looked to see if you had this exact video on it yesterday, thx lol 😆
What a good video, I liked that you mentioned many things about bird photography, and I want to have that camera like the first one, instead of a phone, although I do have to save good money, greetings from Colombia!
Hey! I have a question for u.. is the Topaz Denoise actually better than the Lightroom one?
Sony A6700 is masterpiece at this price range
You know what would be crazy? This camera with the 300mm f2.8 lens. That is effectively a 450mm f4 lens on a camera with crazy good AF and video capabilities and feather light and easily handheldable. Throw on a 1.4TC to make it become 630mm f5.6. Probably overheating after 3 minutes of 120fps 4k video, but oh well.
the Axx00 lineup isn't pro-level which makes sense as to why they only have 1 SD card slot but how much would it cost to take out another small rectangle in the side and solder an SD card port to the PCB?
I also have only had 3 SD cards fail me in 20 years and they were all PNY since then I have had Sandisk and a Samsung.
I always get amazed with your shots and storytelling but man, i instantly fell in love within a few seconds with this one. It is just something else, something special i feel. 🤍
also because of the music choice,the flute ahhh like an Indian classic
Love your work Olle, Thank you so much.
Your videos are always amazing and informative .
Thank you so much!!🙏🏻
As your most likely aware I'd imagine quality, especially with noise is going to depend on the glass too, if your using good quality G master glass etc should be better than using cheaper glass. I started on the a6000 and still have but rarely use these days mainly due to the rubber grip coming off it at the side and the batteries life with the old style batteries and the smaller grip. I just came back off holiday and took my old cheapish Tamron 18-200 vc apsc lens, and even in the sun of Spain some images look a bit noisy due to it only using the central part of my sensor on my a7iii. I would consider this as a replacement for the a7iii at some point as I'm just a hobbyist and the extra reach would be welcome especially on my 70_200 and 150_600 sigma sport lenses. Great video as always.
Hi, I would like to start my adventure with wildlife photography. I used Nikon before, some time ago I had the opportunity to use Sony a6500 while hiking in the mountains and I really liked working with it. I am asking for advice whether I should choose Sony A7 III or A6700. I will be grateful for your help!
For wildlife I'd choose the 6700. Extra reach and way better focus.
Hey Olle, I love your videos and I was wondering if you could do a video with the Sony A7CII.
fr id love to see that also
The intro had that Assassin's Creed feel ❤🔥
What do think about the tamron 70-300 for people on a super low budget and for full frame or apsc?
Gorgous, just perfect. Just a question, would a A7 III do as good as this camera? From your opinion
Not for autofocus but better in low light.
It would be really cool to see you try out a micro four thirds camera like the lumix g9ii or something like that.
What sd did you run on this camera
Great review!
What do you recommend doing if you don't have much wild life around you and cannot drive to find wildlife. I've always wanted to be a wildlife photography just don't know how to find the wildlife
Im thinking about buying a Fujifilm X-H2S with Fujifilm Fujinon XF 150-600mm as my first camera, i have very little experience so the tracking will be helping alot in the beginning. you think this will be a good choise ?
Love all the wildlife in this
I've put AEL lock onto C1 button. Almost every button on a6700 is customizeable, so no biggie
This camera is amazing I watched this video twice what a camera 🔥🔥
Fantastic video Olle. I loved the opening sequence 👏🏽👏🏽🔥 🔥 🔥 I'm really impressed. If you do another brand comparison, please go for Nikon - they offer the best range of long lenses & Sony need to up their game (or Sigma will do it for them 🤣)
Amazing review!!
Thank you so much!!🙏🏻
Great review! I'm trying to get into video and have a hard time understanding the dual base ISO, is it ONLY in S-Log 3?
Great video! I have the Sony Alpha 6300 and the Tamron 150-500 mm and i really can't decide between this and the 7IV. My main problem with the 6300 is its poor light performance because I cant go higher than Iso 6400. How big of a difference was it in the test? If you could only have one camera for everything would you go with this or the 7IV?
Keep in mind that putting that lens on the A7IV will reduce the magnification by 1.5 times, but you'll get about 1.5 stops of noise/DR improvement.
imho as Wildlife cameras come about for me, it would go in this order.
A6700 < A7CR < A7RV < A1
But for general day to day + some decent Wildlife
All APSC cameras newer than a6000 < A7Cii < A7iv
