I recently upgraded my trusty Sony a6400 to the Sony a6700, and I’m absolutely loving it so far! 😊

I decided not to go full frame after considering the A7IV for a long time. For me, I want to hold off until the rumoured A7V comes out and the a6700 has a couple of features that the A7IV is missing (4K 120fps, AI autofocus for cars). I also had a kit full of epic APS-C lenses from @sigmaphotoaustralia to go with the a6700 as well.

So how does it compare to the a6400? Well build quality, ergonomics and feel in the hand is a big difference. The a6700 feels like a big step up. Larger grip, bigger battery, relocated buttons, larger shutter button, fully articulating screen, etc. It’s a joy to use!

And the next big step up is in video performance. Still image quality will be quite similar due to a sensor that is largely the same, but the video quality has levelled up in a big way. The a6700 has in-body image stabilisation, shoots up to 4K 120fps, 10 bit 4:2:2 for more flexibility when colour grading, etc. I feel so much more comfortable to start tackling video now.

So yeah, 100% worth the upgrade if you’re coming from an a6400/a6300/a6100/a6000 and a great step up from the a6500/a6600. Also if you’re looking to enter into the Sony ecosystem then this is a great place to start as well 😊
