![]() | Sony A6700 Pros: Autofocus for subject priority, new video performance, new menu, larger battery, new body and layout and much more. Cons: Display of a bit "right" size for the amount of icons present. Opinion: Sony a6700 compared to its predecessors there have certainly been important and very interesting adjustments. I come from a fantastic a6500 from which I made a series of comparisons to actually understand the impact of the new improvements. The strong points that give it added value are certainly, the new ring to change the modes from photo, video to S&Q Motion, the look of the new menu with multiple parameterizable items, the autofocus system that allows you to select a subject priority, the articulated display, more battery and differentiated access compartments. On the full specifications you can see and appreciate all the features and performance in detail. Video stabilization, finally the possibility of digitally stabilizing with a small crop has also been introduced, and from here a piece of advice for Sony comes spontaneously to me, in addition to activating or deactivating digital stabilization why not give the user the possibility of how much to stabilize perhaps with 3 different levels of crops? With a software update it would be solved quickly. Between the a6700 and the a6500 the main improvements have a greater impact on the video options, true that the sensor is different, but one thing caught my attention, the ISO. I read on other reviews from users who complained about too much "noise" caused at high ISO compared to the a6500. From here I was curious to check this thing. I took a series of test shots at high ISO (from 6400 to 30,000 ISO) with both the a6700 and the a6500 while maintaining exactly the same parameters/lens on a tripod. I then converted the raw files to JPG without adding any type of filter. The result surprised me because comparing the photos with the same ISO in fact the a6700 has more noise than the a6500, but also the exposure is much higher. So this is not the correct interpretation because the exposures of the photos are different. Comparing instead by "exposure", and I mean the same lights and shadows that you see in practice on the monitor, the photos are practically identical but with different ISO. So my deduction is that by obtaining the same exposure of photos, the a6700 has no more "noise" than the a6500, but it will be necessary to reason by maintaining much lower ISO than the a6500 to have the same result. The reason is unknown to me (Sony why?) but being used to the a6500 I will have to re-evaluate the ISO setting on the a6700 in a decidedly different way. Mysteries of science! As for video heating, I recommend recording with the display open and changing the temperature alarm from standard to high and adding an external power bank. Everything depends on how much you want to record continuously and with what parameters. Another advantage is certainly the lens park with a wide choice. I haven't had the opportunity to test everything in detail yet because it takes time but in any case it is certainly a very, very good and complete car. In addition to the customizable keys, it is also possible to create a customizable menu in order to help and speed up some controls. Improved? Like all things... but I would say that today it is a nice little monster in line with current technology (even something more). I recommend it, but not for first-time users! (Pass me the term). In summary... so much stuff! Good continuation to all. sent on May 14, 2024 |
![]() | Tamron 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD Pros: Great versatility of the focal length 18-300 mm FF (27-450 mm APCS), fast silent and precise autofocus, sharp and well-controlled images over the entire focal range, practicality of use, excellent weight / size ratio image quality. Cons: Lack of ON/OFF selectors for focusing/stabilizer, zoom ring not very smooth, bokeh sometimes a bit irregular. Opinion: Good morning everyone, I state that I have had / tried lenses qualitatively better and worse than this, but I believe that it is correct to give the right merits and demerits according to the field of application. Let's start from the range of the focal excursion 18-300 mm FF (27-450 mm APCS) composition of the frame I would say priceless and fun guaranteed. Fast, fast, silent and precise autofocus, nothing to complain about. Image quality in general excellent, very sharp and constant at all focal lengths. Distortion and vignetting present but not invasive and in any case absolutely well controlled and manageable with a good software in post-production. Bokeh not the best, or in some situations it makes, in others not, you have to "know" it for a moment but we are not at the levels of a Sony 70-350 to make a comparison. In conclusion, being a versatile "nature" lens, compared to other predecessors the quality is much higher and I believe that today it is the best choice available on the market for this type of product. If we have to consider the performance / price ratio to use it on different occasions, whole days or simple practicality "free" from the clutter of other lenses, this is the right solution to bring home excellent images. Conversely, if our orientation, budget or work leads us towards more specific situations dictated by other needs, then the choice will fall for obvious reasons on other sectors of employment. I will update the review with sample photos as soon as possible. sent on February 08, 2022 |
