    I looked at both cameras in the shop and decided to go for A6700, it came down to price, for the extra money and what I use the camera for, it wasn’t worth getting the A7c2. I’m not a pro photographer, just enjoy taking photos when walking around. Love the camera though, it’s amazing
  • @NARRASSAFilmes
    I have an fx30 and a a6000 and I just bought the a6700 today. A great new brother.
  • @travelwithlenses
    I was waiting for this video! Thanks for making it! I am thinking on going full frame and doing exactly what you said, starting changing my APSC lenses slowly....
  • @brendanr.5303
    Awesome video, love seeing the compairson on these cameras, it was actually your a6700 videos that convinced me to but the a6700 as my first miroless camera and I am loving it so far.
  • @korishensi6456
    You've literally blown my mind! I was just wondering the comparison of these two "bad boys" and then you post the video🤣🤣
  • Great video! Thanks for sharing! One thing that it wasnt mentioned in the video is that A7CII has only electronic shutter and Electronic-First Curtain Shutter (meanwhile A6700 is equipped with full mechanical shutter and others). Dont know whether it is important for other ppl, but that was actually dealbreaker for me.
  • @rickbiessman6084
    Great comparison. I made the switch to fullframe about a year ago and it was the right decision for me, but for a LOT of people I think APS-C is the better choice. APS-C cameras can be incredibly good.
  • @billr6983
    A wonderful comparison video. Very informative and entertaining. Great job.
  • Awesome comparison i just wonder what lenses did you used for the A6700 on this video?
  • @gordo8189
    Very entertaining video, thank-you. As a fellow Sony fan-boy, I currently have the A7R4 and A6700 for my expensive hobby. Many folks criticised the A6700 when it was released for being as bulky as a full-frame camera (compared to say the NEX-7 or A6000). But, as you pointed out, it costs much less and still performs outstandingly well. Personally I like a body with a bit of weight (cameras, not people) and find I'm using the A6700 more than the A6600 it replaced (kudos to Sony for moving up to a full-frame battery).. You're right, Sony's decision to make all NEX lenses work on all bodies, regardless of sensor size was inspired. APS-C lenses can be a lot lighter and the A6700 with 16-55/2.8 APS-C G-Master lens is a killer combination and (relatively) small & light - if i want truly small & light, I use an RX-100.. As for dual SD card slots - I don't think space is an issue, more to do with not impinging on their higher priced cameras - we're already getting a lot of that tasty up-marker tech in the colour-science, autofocus and image processing on these 'enthusiast' cameras, we mustn't be greedy. That said, I wouldn't want to shoot a wedding with a singe card-slot - it would be like going back to film!! Keep up the good work my friend. your country's scenery is outstandingly beautiful and you clearly have an eye for beauty..

    My first mirrorless camera sony A6700. Its good camera. Not any complain with price range. I love it.
  • @bala1000mina
    Thank you for the helpful comparative video! God bless and good luck!

    Founded your 2 videos about cameras. Previously owned a Canon 6D and long time ago a Nikon 3100-3200 version. I am designer and always loved a photography and video editing. On my Unsplash account I have over 7+ Million views and mostly pictures was taken on my iPhone 11 Pro. I always dreamed about a camera to take photos and film some videos but never got into this purchase serious. You made my understandings easier about camera comparison, quality and budget. I will try probably A6700 for now and see how it will work. It will be enough for now. Thank you so much for this information. You helped me a lot to understand the Sony Market (I always dreamed about A7s3 or latest versions) but my budget is not that big and I am not doing very professional photos (it's not my job) so I don't see a point investing so much just for a camera to travel and take images and upload them on Unsplash for memories :) Thanks again!

    In the end, shooting 50mm f1.4 on FF just cannot be done on APS-c due to lenses not being at stupidly wide apertures. Its really about the lenses and depth of field you can get for each format. If you are in the aperture range that they both do, matched to relative aperture, then there isnt really much difference. Overall FF just looks amazing. Its like easier to get unreal results. APS-C can help in low light when you do not want shallow depth of field because it wont give you that at the same exact aperture for the FOV. So, the math is easy to understand. In the end, the FF usually do everything better, but the cost of the lenses may be more. Also, the Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 is the deal of the century, so go FF.
  • @alexnicoll95
    Just came across your channel! Helpful and I love how much personality you bring to the video, great stuff mate!
  • @vvlad78
    Where are overheating and rolling shutter tests, bro? Low light performance also could be nice to see...
  • @alexeipg
    Great video. I love the blind comparison, but would really appreciate if you used equivalent depth of field as well as focal lengths/colors, or if you just mixed up which side was which camera. The first photo in your blind compare series had a much shallower depth of field on the left than the right, which is usually a giveaway that it is the full-frame. DOF is obviously a potential advantage of full frame over aps-c, but a lot of people will be able to afford the a6700 with a f/1.4 aps-c lens for the same price as an a7cii with a f/1.8 or f/2 lens, and often even less money (e.g., a6700 + sigma f/1.4 series lens is cheaper than a7cii with sigma f/2 series lens). So it'd be nice to see a compare where the effective apertures are the same.
