The back-illuminated sensor structure enhances resolution without compromising sensitivity. With an ISO range of 100-32000, expandable to ISO 50-102400 for stills, the camera excels in low-light conditions, producing minimal noise and offering over 14 stops of dynamic range.

Professional Video Features from Cinema Line
The Sony a6700, with its powerful sensor and processor, offers a robust suite of professional video features from its Cinema Line series, catering to everyday content creators and aspiring filmmakers. The full pixel readout from the 6K sensor ensures high-quality UHD 4K video, using approximately 2.4 times the data required for 4K, effectively minimizing moiré and aliasing. UHD 4K recording is achievable at frame rates up to 120p, and full HD recording up to 240p, all with full 1:1 pixel readout without binning. Advanced XAVC HS and XAVC S-I formats allow for 10-bit 4:2:2 recording at bitrates up to 600 Mb/s, enabling more than two hours of recording in 4K 30p or over 40 minutes at 4K 60p on a 128GB card.
The Slow & Quick (S&Q) mode lets users capture 4K video at varying frame rates between 1-120 fps and Full HD between 1-240 fps, ideal for both slow-motion and time-lapse shooting. The S-Cinetone color profile, derived from professional Cinema Line cameras like the VENICE, delivers distinct colors and healthy-looking skin tones, with natural mid-tones, soft colors, and well-controlled highlights. S-Log3 and S-Gamut3.Cine Gamma Curves provide over 14 stops of dynamic range, allowing for increased post-production flexibility and easy matching with other Sony Cinema Line cameras. Creative Looks can be embedded into the recorded footage to set specific moods during recording, minimizing the need for editing. User-created LUTs and presets enable accurate monitoring or previewing of specific looks during shooting, applicable to the camera's monitor, EVF, or HDMI output. Additionally, the camera supports instant time-lapse settings with customizable framerate, recording, light, and interval options.
