Sony Alpha 6700 APS-C mirrorless camera body with no lens fitted, its vari-angle screen swung out to the side
Sony · Mirrorless Camera Bodies

Sony Alpha 6700

A small APS-C body that steadies the sensor itself, oversamples 4K 60p from 6K and tracks birds and animals, which is why owners use it as a first serious camera and as a second body beside full frame. Skip it if you film long continuous takes handheld: Sony's own help guide gives about 5 minutes of 4K at 77°F on the Standard heat setting, and the 30 minute setting is tripod only.

  • 26.0MP back-illuminated Exmor R APS-C CMOS sensor with the BIONZ XR processor and a dedicated AI processing unit
  • 5-axis in-body image stabilization, rated by Sony up to 5.5 stops
  • Fast Hybrid AF with 759 phase-detection points covering about 93 percent of the frame for stills, and 495 points for video

Sony Alpha 6400

In the registry, no review written yet. The claims below come off the maker's own documentation and the live listing.

  • 24.2MP Exmor APS-C CMOS sensor with the BIONZ X processing engine
  • Sony pairs it with a 180 degree tilting touchscreen and Real-time Eye AF; this ASIN is ILCE-6400L, the kit that ships a 16-50mm power zoom
  • 425 phase-detection points combined with contrast AF over about 84 percent of the frame, and a stated 0.02 second acquisition

Sony Alpha 7 V full-frame mirrorless camera body, front view with no lens fitted and the E-mount open
Sony · Mirrorless Camera Bodies

Sony Alpha 7 V

The all-round full-frame body to buy when you shoot a little of everything and want one camera for years, with strong battery life and fast, wide autofocus. Skip it if full-frame 4K 120p or an open gate mode is central to your work, since the a7 V crops for 120p and has neither.

  • Full-frame partially stacked Exmor RS CMOS sensor with approximately 33.0 effective megapixels
  • BIONZ XR2 processing engine with an integrated AI processing unit
  • 5-axis in-body stabilization rated at 7.5 stops at the center and 6.5 at the periphery, to CIPA 2024 with the FE 50mm F1.2 GM

Canon EOS R6 Mark II full-frame mirrorless body, front view with the RF mount open and the sensor visible
Canon · Mirrorless Camera Bodies

Canon EOS R6 Mark II

The hybrid full-frame body to buy when you shoot stills and video both and want it to last, with no overheating and an owner record that runs well past 100,000 frames with no failure. Skip it if fast electronic-shutter action is your main subject, because the sensor is not stacked and the rolling shutter shows.

  • 24.2 megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor with the DIGIC X processor and Dual Pixel CMOS AF
  • In-body image stabilization rated up to 8 stops, with coordinated control and depending on the lens
  • Subject detection for people, animals including horses, and vehicles including cars, motorcycles, aircraft and trains, plus an automatic mode

Canon EOS R6 Mark III full-frame mirrorless camera body, front view with the RF mount open and the model badge beside it
Canon · Mirrorless Camera Bodies

Canon EOS R6 Mark III

The full-frame hybrid to buy when video earns its keep: internal 7K RAW, open gate and 4K 120p without a crop, and no shutdown in two independent tests. Skip it for stills alone, where the Mark II tracks a little better, or for long RAW takes in hot sun: Canon's own figures stop 7K RAW 60p at about 23 minutes at 23°C, and DPReview expects it to struggle in direct sun.

  • 32.5 megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor with the DIGIC X processor
  • Sensor-shift IS rated up to 8.5 stops at the center and 7.5 at the periphery, depending on the lens
  • Dual Pixel CMOS AF II with 1053 AF areas when automatically selected

  • 5-axis in-camera VR with an effect of 7.5 stops at the center and 6.0 at the periphery
