You do the best review without being given a review unit.

You're a world treasure. We must protect this man at all costs.

A6700 looks good... finally :) - with that said, the X-S20 still has many advantages: 6.2k open gate (crop for instagram and RU-vid), 7 stops IBIS (2 more than Sony, noticeably more stable and no longer jerks when panning!), no overheating in video, 4k60 webcam for external recording and power with 1 USB cable (no drivers needed), 10bit 4:2:2 360mbit with 14 stops dynamic range flog2 (better the X-H2S!), raw video external recording, nicer screen, joystick, fuji colours, cheaper, etc, etc - there's a lot to like! -- unfortunately the 4k60p does have a crop though despite reviewers claiming otherwise (unless I am missing some setting on mine?). Not to mention Sony have a history neglecting cameras once they are released while my old X-T3 is still receiving updates and is compatible with the new XApp phone app.

"Remember when Sony used to care? Me neither, nice to meet you." - icebreaker I'm using in all business meetings for the rest of 2023.

That Sony board meeting was comedy gold!

Kasey does not believe in second takes nor do-overs. Maximum efficiency is ours.

This is the only camera channel on youtube that isn't paid advertising.

Coming from a very awesome and perfect day, I immediately open youtube and search for this channel to watch something that would ruin that fine day. Oddly enough, when I just got off from a bad day or just woke up on the wrong side of the bed, I do the same. Watch videos from this channel and it makes everything so perfect. I don't know how it's possible but I guess this is the right way to get the balanced happiness right.

Like some of the features, but.......I think I'll hold on to the a6600 for a bit linger. Put my money into lenses

I’m just gonna keep saving for an Panasonic S5 II.

The ONLY ONE who finally says it! Improving the IBIS was the ONE thing to do!

I make very good financial decisions. I bought the FX30 just over a month ago. It was preeeeeety irritating to hear that they were putting most of that into a cheaper camera so soon. I paid $500 extra for dual card slots, a full-size HDMI, Cine EI, a cooling fan and Netflix-approval. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Feels real good. Thanks, Sony! 😂

8k24 on a 26 mpix sensor. Neat trick that. Did they figure out, how to do video pixelshift on that 5-stop IBIS ??

The old ‘saving baby kangaroos from a fire’ analogy LOL

I'm a music producer that's starting to think about doing Vlogging and RU-vid, not just in my field but daily life and travel also... so really into knowing about all fields of videography. In music production, mixing and mastering also I have my go to RU-vidrs I go to which I have found that speak the truth and don't ever shill on equipment and plugins so I can make better decisions on my buys. You channel is the first one that fulfils this requirement in the camera world. And clearly any that tell the truth also come with a great amount raw humour and you channel does that better than anyone else, that I know off anyway. The only RU-vidr close to this before, for me, was Kai and his duo friend Lok. I've already made entirely new equipment lists already just after a week or so watching your videos. When people hype up products it's so easy to be sold on specs and bells and whistles, but now I have a idea of how to get the look and function I need, without going over board so also my content can just be able the content and not drowning it out with fancy BS... but still be able to do enough of that to keep a certain level of quality of production. I've been on the never ending hunt of the perfect audio tool and now I will join you on this search for the perfect camera that will never end because all companies in all fields operate under the playground capitalism creates where they have to be competing with each other instead of combining their knowledge and insight... hell, they even have to compete with themselves in a capitalist system... they have to better their last product but cripple that product in some way to not quite completely defeat another product they still sell... crazy fuck wods

"Define better?" That is every camera company right now! What great insight and wisdom! Thanks for the truth and laughs!

Even I as Sony APS-C shooter I'm disappointed about a6700. The only improvement comes from Sony reusing their Bionz Xr processor and their great autofocus. Still no autofocus joystick, no dual card slot, same EVF, same screen. What a let down after 4 years of waiting.

I’ve been waiting for an apsc upgrade for my a6600. a6700 just isn’t good enough to upgrade.

10:46 😂😂😂 i almost fell off my chair while grading a project laughing so hard

This is the strangest photo channel ever- and I can't stop watching!

There was a new fuji update. XH2S: The bug is fixed that the banding noise appears in the shadow area in the recorded movie when shooting the Full HD format movie with F-log2. Any thoughts?

"just outta frame" 🤣🤣🤣

Hey Mate - like the new look and your acting has really cranked up a couple of notches - thoroughly enjoyable video!

My first time on this channel. I'm giving a like solely for the comedy factor! 🤣 Info was good too though.

You’ve really learned how to nail the color correction using that color chart! 😅

Man, your camera reviews are simply the best, and this is one of your best ever. (Yes, this is good content.) That Sony meeting was hilarious and gave us insight into why the screens haven't improved. Thankfully, they must have also won some side hinges at Burger King as well, as now Sony finally makes cameras with them. I'm also impressed that Sony finally got with the program and added a front dial. I am but a "photographer" (loser), but I do believe the a6700 is likely the best APS-C camera at the moment, even with some flaws. And perhaps the most miraculous thing is that the MSRP didn't increase since the a6600 in 2019. I thought for sure that they'd increase it due to the catch-all reason of "inflation", but nope. So I do think it's a good deal in the APS-C camera space.

Loved the meeting scene. I love it when he says something crazy...but keeps a stone straight face.

On the plus side we only have to wait until 2028 until a 2mp screen arrives! Plus, the IBIS is good for simulating vlogging with a club foot

Can you make a video about Camcorders? I have an R6 ii which is great, but I recently felt an urge to get a Sony camcorder, I don't know why. But they all stink compared to the XF605 but it's huge. The Panasonics are okay too and are the most recently released ones. Do you think Sony will release new 4K60 Camcorders soon? I'd like to have a few options. Smaller form factor like the Panasonic HC-X2000 or bigger like the Canon XF605.

Classic meeting footage! LOL! I'd love a microphone hiding tutorial btw... Thanks for the morning laughs, helpful right now Have a great day!

I use the ibis on my A7r5 for video stock footage handheld in busy street night markets where is way too crowded to keep using a gimbal, and is working wonders

Definitely would be better with improved ibis! All I’ve really been wanting is the ultimate ibis and full weather-proofing. The sensor specs are plenty good enough so hopefully they’ll focus on improving these aspects for future releases without changing anything else

Thanks to the release of the Sony A6700, my local electronic store lowered the price of the A6100 :) Which was perfect as I've been using the A6000 for 6 years XD

I don't want to tell tales out of school, but I'm beginning to suspect that these meetings are re-creations.

You know I hate that even though I’m subscribed your video never come up. I love your videos man. Made sure to turn on alerts.

Another classic show/review. 🔥

What you got yesterday is Sony's second best APS-C camera for video, and the best Sony APS-C for stills. I think the FX-30 is still best for video. The A6700 is great all-around. One flaw the dudes at PetaPixel noted is the damn thing overheats too quickly while streaming in 1080p over USB-C. By default it overheats in under 30 minutes, unless you set the heat threshold to high. Then it can stream for over 2 hours.

Not sure how it’s photography first when you’d struggle to tell the difference in image quality between an A6000 and this, all the improvements are for video

Brands spend thousands of dollars to maximize the first five seconds of ads on RU-vid, yet here's a man who, without a single cut, gave us the most engaging first 5 seconds of a video that has ever existed. Perfection

Hey nice Akai APK Mini, what kind of music do you make and where can we listen to it?

i felt personally attacked with the a7Rv comment lool

I think Sony is "Worthy" now of the cripple hammer! I remember the days when they were the underdog that everyone is cheering on to beat Canon's BS. Now that they are the leaders they went full Canon on us. Like you said in a previous video a camera from last 8 years would be a better value. Heck getting a used A6400 or A7C is the right move now if you were stuck in Sony's ecosystem for some reason. But if you're not I think the right choice atm would be Panasonic S5II (1500 USD open box body on ebay) for talking heads/light movement with their amazing stabe and Go Pro 11 or even better the new Insta360 GO 3 (which I have and love so much) for Vlogging!

The Barry Gibb look is your best yet. You're the best on RU-vid 🙏

@cameraconspiracies I just got first full frame fx3, earlier i had zve-10, but i still can't get its colors right, do u think canon system/r5c would've been a better choice?

Man . This was such a good episode ! You should of talked about the screen flipping to the side as well . The screen being on top was so much better

Is the -5 IBIS of the A6600 a thing? Because I could never find any effect of the IBIS in my A6600. I thought it was broken until I tested the dust removal function and could verify that the sensor was moving.

Your boardroom meetings need to be screened in their actual meetings , seriously.

That transition is genius, outstanding (as usual).

This absolutely hits the nail on the head.

11:41 It's weird how that magical change of colour to blue isn't reflected in your speaker's surface 😉

Entertaining review, well done (which is why we're here). So gives us your current gear - you still got the GH6? I'm sure the A7Siii is there. So you're not sold on the S5iix? Fuji XH2S footage still looks inspiring to me, but you killed it. Whats next?

That burgerking bit was good stuff 👏

Keep the good work going, to review a unit without having it and have us watch the video to the end takes some skills and talent , peace ✌🏻

My favourite part of your videos is The Meeting(s) b-rolls you produce. If I see a video with a Meeting, I always give you a Thumbs Up.

So did you like the ibis in 6700 or?

Dig the subtle RGB practical changes. 😂

Best camera content on RU-vid. If I end up buying one of these against my better judgement imma affiliate link you up.

I also wanted better ibis the best lens aren't stabilized. Still getting it because its a really good camera and I haven't upgraded since the a6400 i got in 2020

Never did I laugh out loud so much watching a camera review. Thanks for the laughs ! First time viewer here and I came watching A6700 reviews. I shoot stills 99.9% and care less about video, Vlog, etc. This seems a good choice for wildlife and BIF shooting Liked and sub'd.. Actually tried to sub twice...but wouldn't let me :)

Oh god this was so entertaining to watch!! And great insight.. However we didn't talk about another monster in the room.. low light performance! Love your work bruh ;-)

Is there a better option for an aspiring tuber though? Pani s5iix is $800 more and has to crop to aps-c to hit 4k 60. Could buy a decent lens with that money. The only reasonably priced FF I see near this is the zv-e1.

This is the best video you've made in a while. Made me LOL. Right on point too.

Honestly, I preferred the flip up screen. Or at the very least, the screen that the A7Rv / GH6 has.

Won't it work with catalyst browse? That'll help with stabilization right?

LOL. This is high quality RU-vid entertainment indeed! keep up the good work!

I think Kassey is bought over when Panasonic comes with GH5 III, same autofocus as S5 II and the GH6 sensor but the body size of GH5

Hi, to add to the previous comment---the new IBIS of the a6700 includes 1. no stabilization; 2. standard stabilization, 3. and more than the a6600----active stabilization. all these can be manually turned on and off.

So few have mastered the use of Xrite color checker like Kasey @10:25.

a6700 vs Lumix s5ii for product photography/videography?

Im picking this camera up to upgrade from my ZV-E10. I need the slowmo and some type of stab lol.

The 120fps is like a 1.65x crop though? Seems a bit extreme and quite limiting. I think I would rather have HD with less crop and upscale.

Better than the XT5?

Hi Casey, with current events, can we expect you to check out the new Sony Xperia 1 V anytime soon? The advertising promises that this device will fulfill some of your long-standing desires. I would be very interested in your assessment.

Green lipstick and cheeto fingers is a great look on you man. Hahaha. I was wanting a APS-C secondary camera for birding but I'm not impressed with the A6700. I was mostly excited about the 70-200 GII, but I expected it to be smaller (not as fat) with the collapsable design. To my surprise I ended up being more excited about the ECM-M1 microphone than the other releases. Is there something wrong with me? Have I been listening to the troils too much on SAR?

A6700 or X-S20 which would you buy?

excellent sony meetings and also the others. 😄 ibis breaks dreams;) hello from France, you have fans in all countries;) ;) 🤪😄

Casey you are wrong about xs20. It has 4k60 without crop. The new autofocus is great and the ibis is so much better than Sony. It actually surprised me so much when I used it.

A7sIII with 17 firmware updates per second, meanwhile a6400 gets nothing! 😂

Dynamic active stab was badly needed yes. 10:58 Sony does have three Zeiss Touit lenses for apsc. 12mm, 32 mm and 50mm macro. They autofocus as well but they make loud noises.

You save me so much money making me not want to buy every new thing

Hi, great video as usual ! I'm however NOT buying the Sony A6700. Sorry for your affiliate link :'(

@10:50 lol XS20 ($1,299): -Shoots 4k DCI 24/30/60, and 6k 24/30 -6k Open Gate recording -Shoots True 24 frames per second -Has ProRes Raw recording output -Nearly 3x the burst capability (30fps v 11fps) -16bit raw files (stills) v a6700’s 14bit. -Uncompressed RAW shooting -*Automatic* Subject Detection (birds, planes, bikes, cars, insects, people, dogs, etc) -Compatible with fuji’s cooling fan attachment -Up to 7 stops of IBIS vs a6700’s 5 stops -Built in flash -80% higher resolution LCD -50% more battery life -Premium APSC lenses -Has a joystick -$100 less A6700 ($1,399): -Having 4k 120 (although at a sensor readout smaller than m4/3) -Able to use Sony’s fullframe lenses -Focus breathing compensation -Autoframing in video -Import LUTs -Better autofocus performance Plenty if reasons to get the xs20

9:36 That burn 🔥

But, according to multiple reports it overheats really bad. a6700 review on youtube from Matt WhoisMatt Johnson: a6700 4K60 direct sunlight (power off temp high, screen pulled out) 10 minutes, 25 seconds a6700 4K24 direct sunlight (power off temp high, screen pulled out) 13 minutes, 35 seconds a6700 4K60 indoors (power off temp high, screen pulled out) 14 minutes, 24 seconds Only mode it was usable in for 4K was: a6700 4K24 indoors (power off temp high, screen pulled out) 1 hour, 59 minutes (battery died) From Cameralabs: "Plus without active cooling, the 6700 overheated in my tests after around half an hour of 4k at 50 or 60p, and there’s also no 6k, Open Gate nor RAW video."

The A7SIII abandon ware. So sad. Maybe when the A6800 comes out next month ibis will be a thing.

How Steve was not fired in the boardroom is the real question.

My a6000 does 11fps. Why are we stuck at 11?

minus negative 5 stops = 0 stops

a6xxx users are discovering that for stills, cameras really need front wheel 😆Next step in a couple of year should be camera bodies with non microwave design

I’ll be honest, I only came here for a kangaroo analogy. And I got one hard.

What did you shoot this video with? It looks better than usual. Could be the shirt.

Except for the over heating under direct sunlight it’s been said btw. :) (4K)

Yeah, slow mow cameras like the Chronos 2 - ~ $7000 for 1080p 1000fps and Freefly Wave ~ $8000 for 1080fp 1440fps - still too expensive for too little and niche egros. In 2014 I got the Sony RX10 MKII - 4k 30fps, 240, 480, 960 FPS in their HFR mode- sure it was limited by a few seconds and a long buffer - however the result was really cool even though image quality was poor- I TOO want a 4k 240 and HD 960 body that's like a pansonic or something - run and gun no limits! I don't even need AF with DJI lidar AF... Oh well I'll just have to get older and watch the camera market.

Love it !!!! So Canon has the R7, Sony has the new 6700, What about Nikon ? What's up with that?

If you love ibis, may I suggest the the Panasonic G9ii...

I was goin to purchase this camera I watched 6 vids that say how great it was hard pass because of your video thanks for telling the truth 8 will wait for one you really like.😊

I have the a6600 and the a6700 and although the specifications of the ibis are the same, I see a notable improvement in favor of the a6700. it is the same as the xt4 ​​(which I had for 1 year) without having those annoying jerks

Waiting for the camera conspiracies LUT pack to buy annually for $49.99 🙏🙏🙏

Obviously manufacturers hold improvements in reserve for when competition pulls ahead in specs.
