Sony's most advanced APS-C mirrorless with AI autofocus and 4K 120fps video.
The Sony A6700 launched in 2023 as Sony's flagship APS-C mirrorless, replacing the A6600. With a 26MP sensor, AI-powered Real-time Recognition AF from the A7R V, and 4K 120fps video, it brought flagship features to the APS-C format. It is the most capable APS-C camera Sony has ever made.
Key features include the 26MP APS-C sensor with BIONZ XR processor, AI-based subject detection covering humans, animals, birds, insects, cars, and trains, 11fps burst, 5-axis IBIS, and 4K 120fps video. The body is compact with a deep grip, vari-angle touchscreen, and weather sealing.
The A6700 is praised for bringing A7-class autofocus to APS-C and for excellent video specifications. It is criticised for pricing that approaches full-frame alternatives like the A7C, and for the APS-C sensor limitations in dynamic range and high-ISO compared to its full-frame siblings.
Good value used. Check IBIS operation, AF tracking accuracy, and the vari-angle screen hinge. The A6700 versus A7C decision comes down to sensor size preference versus price. For APS-C it is currently the best available from any manufacturer.
