Product Reviews

Excellent quality camera with superb images, The eye autofocus in amazingly accurate . I can shoot 300 head shots and every one is in focus. The battery life is better than advertised. The menu is very detailed and probably too complicated for an amateur without help. The only issue I have is OVERHEATING and LOCKING UP with the screen going BLACK after shooting over 100-300 images. I have to remove the battery and wait for the camera to cool off. Otherwise I find it easier to use than my Sony A1 and Sony A7R5 and Sony A6600 which says alot.

Excellent apsc camera, ment to be for beginners but this camera is away advanced A++++

Purchased recently as a travel sized body. Super impressed with all the features usually found in a full body, squeezed into this small APSC

Versatile camera for all photography challenges - landscapes, portraits, nature.

Significant improvement over my old A6300 especially the focusing speed

As a long time Alpha camera owner this is the most comfortable I've been with any camera.

This is now my second A6700 as my previous one was stolen in Barcelona, Spain. I am a novice user, but I find my A6700 helps me to take some amazing photos and videos. So much so that I am not producing some superb, almost pro quality work. I use my A6700 not only for work but also for pleasure ( mainly street photography ). Coupled with my Sony 16 - 55 F2.8 Sony lens it is a lightweight and extremely powerful combination. I previously had a A6400, I find the A6700 to be a great improvement. I am an extremely happy Sonny user :-)

This is the first sony I've owned i was a devoted cannon owner I'm a semi pro but sold all my cameras and equipment eg: studio lights and all of my cannon equipment. Basically went into retirement with photography. The bigger is difficult in the daily truth. But recently took a trip to Canada. I missed camera outperformed anything I've used before.

Autofocus locks on to bird eye and there is minimal noise in low light.

I have had many cameras over the years but this new SonyA6700 offers something for everyone. The Sony out of camera colour palette is superb and the AF is almost unbelievable, its ability to lock on to virtually any moving subject is uncanny, making sharp images available no matter what the subject is doing. The large grip is a joy and it holds the latest battery which will return approx 650 images meaning all day shooting is now possible without the need for an additional battery. Finally, thank you Sony for at last updating the menu system which used to be terrible. Over all this camera is certainly 5 stars.

Still getting used to the camera, but good so far. Auto focus excellent. Not tried video yet.

My first serious camera and I love how it's so versatile with the photo and video quality. You will need the best APSC lenses though to get the most out of it.

I havent event started going out yet. Just uograded my kit with just the body and I dont regret buying thia. The price point I think is just righ for its capability and my skills at present.

I bought this with initial purpose to replace my Sony a7iii. a7iii is good but too heavy to travel with. I was a Sony a6000 user but that camera was spoiled, so I deicded to get a new a6700. Pro of this camera 1. Good focusing with AI based 2. Good body build and good quality of the photo Cons 1. Noise level is not that great. Slightly above 6400 crated unacceptable noise

I love this camera,have been using it for 3 months already and I am completely satisfied with my choice. It has everything I need. I love the flip screen,the grip,the customizable buttons,the inbuilt image stabilization,etc. It just feels so good in the hands.

I bought this a month ago, so far I am still learning. Because I am still new to photography.

I want to love this camera but despite its blazing fast and accurate autofocus, which was one of the top reasons I chose it, it also has a couple of serious flaws. I've been using my 6700 almost daily for the past 4 months and feel that's a fair amount of time to make judgement. Physically, the proportions are excellent and it is much more comfortable holding the 6700 than my old a6000. The grip is basically perfect. The buttons and dials have an absolutely premium tactile feel. When working properly, the autofocus is killer. I've taken thousands of photos of food, people, cars, animals and insects, always in manual mode, and with the exception of one photoshoot, have only experienced autofocus failure a 3 or 4 times. During the failed photoshoot, the camera worked for the first 20 mins and then suddenly changed, indicating focus, appearing crisply focused, but when I actually pressed the shutter the photo would be completely out of focus. Occasionally I'd see the focus target square jump somewhere else just as I pressed the shutter, sometimes it would remain on the subject and indicate that it was focused. And yet over one hundred photos were totally out of focus as I experimented with settings. Turning it off and on again and pulling the battery did not solve the problem and I had to resort to full manual focus to finish the job. The second (well documented) problem is the atrocious viewfinders. The colour accuracy is deplorable and the colour adjustments are far too minimal. Despite this, photo colour accuracy is superb and I've been very happy with the vast majority of photos taken. Unfortunately my 6700 suffers from the also well-documented 'battery exhausted' problem. For those who don't know, the camera will sometimes believe the battery is exhausted even though it is charged, up to and including 100%. The solution to this is to remove the battery and put it back in, or put in a different battery. Very annoying. I'm hoping Sony fixes these issues for the next release. It is potentially an incredible camera.

As an amateur photographer this camera has everything I need and lots more to learn to get the most out of it. I have a small hand size and it fits the grip perfectly, although I think anyone with a large hand may find their small finger ends up underneath the grip, which could be ok for support. Although the camera can be set to work in Auto mode and do everything for you, there are so many other modes to learn and use to get the best out of the camera and best quality images. There are way too many features to discuss here, but so far I have to say its an easy recommendation from me to any amateur, and probably professional photgraphers, to get and use this camera.

The camera is well built and feel sturdy in the hand and is just the right size to slip into a bag, the features and image quality of this camera is amazing and the video capabilities seem endless! However if you come from the older menu systems (such as the ones on at the a6000 ) the new menu system may feel unnatural at first but you get used too it pretty fast.

I purchased in June 2023 very good product operates well . only problem with poor design eye piece cover that clips on , this can slip off had to replace twice,

Bought this camera to replace my NEX5T. Superior auto focus, great dynamic . Only 1 thing which I gave less 1 star, is that Sony remove HDR function . Even my older NEX5T have it, but newer and more expensive a6700 do not have HDR . It's sad.

I upgraded from my eight year old A6300. I was concerned that the benefits of the new A6700 might not be noticeable. I was wrong! This camera is not evolutionary compared to the A6300. It is revolutionary. The improvements are so significant that it is hard to think of these cameras in the same family. Without any question, hands down, this upgrade is worthwhile, well worth the investment, and you will see it on your first shot.

Been using this camera for 6 months now and love the quality of the photos, I am using an 18-135 lens and it solves all the purposes.

i bought 1 month ago, after deciding over sony ev10ii. the viewfinder is important when i go bkk, very bright day most of time.

The Sony files are almost impossible to view, even after making proxies. I can't believe I have to pay to use a Sony file viewer like Catalyst Browse or Catalyst Prepare. That's a terrible way to treat customers. I buy a product and can't really use it without purchasing additional software.

Aku sudah memegang beberapa kamera dari eos 550d..fuji xs10..fuji xt 100..sont zv 10..hanya kamera ini merasa merasa puas seperri yang aku impikan selama ini

Coming from a DSLR user, this is a small and powerful camera with great features and a great tool for travel use without the bulk and weight.

Very happy that I bought it. It’s light weight, features are easy to use and the photos are sharp and colours punchy.

I bought this camera a few weeks ago to start a YouTube channel and I'm not at all disappointed in the clarity and beauty of the shots it takes. And I mostly had it paired with the Sigma 16mm 1.4 which is a great combination. But I also use this for live streaming, work calls etc and that's where the disappointments show up - overheating! I have the overheat threshold/limit turned up, and sitting in my air conditioned office and this thing cuts off in 30 mins due to overheating. I attached an aftermarket camera fan to it which kept the thing alive, but moments after the battery on the fan died, the camera went down with it. Longest shoot I can get out of it is 40+/- mins. This camera is probably next level for most people but if you're live streaming or doing long content video it's probably more annoying than the money you're saving from stepping up a level to a camera with an internal fan. Just ordered the fx30 which has super high marks. Sticking with Sony, but this one just doesn't work for me.

Been using it casually for a month and i love the quality of the video and photo it produce. Perfect for capturing moments when we travel

I had bought this camera a while ago and I cannot believe that this camera has so many features pack into a small and portable body, I have some experience with taking pictures but I'm far off from being a professional photographer, and with all of its features, you are bound to make this a camera that suits your needs.

I love my a6700, everyday its manage to surprise me with new things. This is highly capable camera especially in the video department. I highly recommend this camera to anyone.

Bought my A6700 2 weeks ago and brought it along to my Perth trip. The AI tracking is superb and I got almost all my images looking sharp. The battery span is great and the monitor works just fine on a sunny day, only struggled a little to watch.

Great camera. I was disappointed because the 6100-6400 have the built in flash, and this 6700 didn’t have one. Also the flip screen is on the side. I prefer the flip screen to be on the top. Great lens and quality.

I’m happy that there’s a flip screen but I hope it can be like a74 with flip and tilt

It was a big decision to buy this camera from a former Nikon user. Ive gone from having a D5600 to the a6700 and wish I did so sooner. There are so many features that don't get spoken about that just blew me away. Really happy with this purchase!

Packed with lots of features, esp video recording. Still photo focusing af-s, spot focus small, over 50% i find back focus when focus box framed subject (bird) head, and end up focused to behind. battery not last long as a7riii but still decent. overall excellent model camera, worth the value.

The Sony A6700 redefines mirrorless excellence with its 24.2MP APS-C sensor, lightning-fast autofocus, and 4K video capabilities. Its compact yet durable design, coupled with intuitive controls, makes it a standout choice for photographers and videographers alike. This camera delivers exceptional performance and stunning results in any shooting scenario.

As someone that had never previously used Sony cameras, I was looking for a smaller lighter alternative to my Full frame equipment for a "carry everywhere" or vacation set up. As video is now taking up a large part of what I shoot, it had to have good video specs and performance. I've had the camera now for several weeks and honestly have to say it's an amazing little camera, small, light with incredible photo and video performance (especially for an APS-C sensor), and gives my full frame equipment a run for it's money. I'd heard a lot about Sony's amazing AF and tracking abilities, and to be honest, it doesn't disappoint and the AF performance in video especially is simply amazing. Fully equipped with all the AI subject tracking modes from it's big brother (the A7R V), it certainly doesn't disappoint. Sure I'd like it to have twin card slots and a higher resolution screen and EVF, but it's still very workable and I guess keeps the price competitive ? Highly recommended.

Still getting to grips with this amazing device, but so far in comparison to my previous cameras including my Canon DSLR it's infinitely better. The auto focus is absolutely amazing and class leading apparently, lightning fast and pin sharp almost always, when it isn't it's usually due to movement when using a slower lens. The bundled 18-135mm lens is a fantastic starter lens, I've photographed landscapes from mountains, portraits at party's, even pictures of white tailed eagles from a boat. I can't wait to see what more can be achieved with this camera and with more lenses.

This is the best-ever APS-C camera from Sony. It feels like a real DSLR. Better grip and is solidly built. The white balance and colour rendition are much better than before. Autofocus with eye tracking is extremely fast. The new menu is easier to navigate than the older A6xxxx cameras. Overall, an excellent purchase with no regrets.

We love our A6700 for Vlogging. Small and nimble but packs so much in.

Bought this to start my birding activities. Match well with 70-350mm

Better than expected !Great quality pictures and videos.

I recently switched from the Sony A6400 to this camera, and I couldn't be happier with my decision. As a hybrid shooter who primarily focuses on photography but also enjoys videography, this camera offers the perfect balance of features and performance. One of the standout aspects of this camera is its impressive array of videography options and features. While I don't consider myself a professional videographer, having these capabilities at my disposal is a fantastic bonus. The camera's video quality is stellar, and the various shooting modes and settings allow me to capture footage that looks professional and polished. Another aspect I love about this camera is its compact form factor. Its small size makes it incredibly convenient to carry around, especially when shooting street photography or while traveling. I no longer feel weighed down by bulky equipment, and I can easily pack this camera in my bag without sacrificing precious space. Moreover, the APS-C lenses compatible with this camera are much more affordable compared to full-frame lenses. As someone who doesn't require the absolute best in terms of image quality, I find that APS-C lenses perfectly fulfill my needs while being gentle on my wallet. Overall, I highly recommend this camera to fellow hybrid shooters who value a balance between photography and videography capabilities. The small form factor, affordable lens options, and impressive features make it an excellent choice for enthusiasts and professionals alike.

Iam a hybrid shooter, take both photo and video. Very impres with the performance of this camera. The camera can bring a sharp quality even in 1080p. Quality photo same like video, very very sharp and detail. Amazing auto fokus, really catch up for object. Unfortunely small body in this camera make me on love and hate relationship. Its compact but overheating issue appear in this camera. I think i can handel the overheating really well on my workflow. But im very happy with this camera

I’m so happy to Sony user ..I plan to buy sonys lense and another bodys but give me any less price ..thank you

I bought this 2 months ago and it's so small and compact, it's so easy to always carry it around everywhere. Don't be fooled though by it's small footprint. It packs a hefty punch as a high-end semi-professional camera body, suitable even for professional work.

I bought the a6700 after extensive research and I have to say that it has exceeded my expectations in almost every way. As an amateur photographer I am so pleased with the image quality that I no longer covet a full frame camera and will enjoy this smaller/lighter device and lower cost lenses. I cannot believe the extensive and advanced features that Sony have managed to include, not least that it has changed the way I capture images and video. For example, I now shoot action in aperture priority thanks to ISO AUTO Min. SS and the excellent focus system with subject recognition allowing for practically full-time wide and/or zone shooting. Video capture really is next level with 4K 10 bit 4:2:2 in S-Log 3 producing outstanding results. I rate this camera at 4.5 out of 5 as I have one (just one) issue, the missing 25p frame rate in PAL H.265 (XAVC HS 4K). This means that I have to record video in H.264 (XAVC S 4K) unless Sony update the firmware. Make no mistake, this is a feature rich device and to get the best out of it will require some dedication. but the available customisation of buttons, dials, memories and user menu’s allows this camera to be set up exactly how you would like it. The six (reduced size) images attached to this review were taken with the Sony 18-135mm lens and the last two images show compare ISO 100 with ISO 12800 (after 50% denoise).

Good camera for stills and video. ibis and updated sensor makes a difference. Honestly they packed all the good stuff from their other flagship lines into this apsc camera.

I usually shoot birds and nature. AF of this body is very good. Battery life is good. Happy for overall. Just wish to have pre-shooting capture and a bit faster frame rate, as a major rival could provide even at a lower price.
