When Sony released its first APS-C crop-sensor mirrorless camera back in 2013, the company hit on something good. Combining the new Sony E-Mount for smaller and lighter mirrorless lenses with a light and compact camera body, Sony’s A6x00 range became successful with travellers, weekend photographers and content creators as the compact hybrid camera to beat.
The Sony A6600 has sat at the top of the range since 2019, but over the past few years Sony has made a lot of technical developments that it’s rapidly rolling out to new camera models. Fans of Sony’s A6x00 range have, understandably, been clamouring for Sony to update the lineup, and the company has finally answered those calls with the A6700.
However, since the Sony A6600’s release, Sony just can’t seem to stop launching similar cameras – in the past few months, we’ve already had the Sony ZV-E1 and the Sony ZV-1 II. Sony’s ZV cameras are aimed at video-focused content creators, although they are capable of taking quality stills. Apart from lacking an electronic viewfinder, ZV cameras share much of the same design and technology as the A6x00
