FUJIFILM X-T50 / Sony α6700 (ILCE-6700)

FUJIFILM X-T50: X-T50 body; the silver and black colours share the same hardware. The X-T5, X-T30 II and X-T30 III are separate models.

Sony α6700 (ILCE-6700): ILCE-6700 body; the ILCE-6700K is sold with the 16–50 mm power zoom and the ILCE-6700M with the 18–135 mm lens. Body specifications are the same in all three kits.

Release year20242023
Sensor23.5 × 15.7 mm APS-C X-Trans CMOS 5 HR; 40.2 MP effective

The same sensor is used in the X-T5 and X-H2; the high resolution leaves room to crop but makes files larger.

Fujifilm
APS-C (23.3 × 15.5 mm) Exmor R CMOS; approx. 26.0 MP effective (27.0 MP total)

Exmor R is a back-illuminated sensor: the circuitry sits behind the light-gathering surface, so more light reaches the pixels. Video uses up to about 19.9 MP of the sensor.

Sony
ProcessorX-Processor 5

The image processor that runs the autofocus algorithms, film simulations and video encoding.

Lens mountFUJIFILM X

Directly compatible with X-series XF and XC lenses; GF lenses do not fit this body.

Fujifilm
—
Image size3:2 up to 7728 × 5152

This is the pixel size of the largest photo at the sensor’s full resolution.

Fujifilm
—
FilesJPEG, 10-bit 4:2:2 HEIF, 14-bit RAF RAW; TIFF only from in-camera RAW conversion

HEIF stores more colour gradations than JPEG; RAW gives the most flexibility when editing.

Fujifilm
—
Standard ISO125–12,800; extended 64–51,200

Extended ISO values may reduce dynamic range or add noise; the maker counts them outside the standard range.

Fujifilm
—
Stabilisation5-axis sensor shift; up to 7.0 stops; additional digital stabilisation for video

Sensor shift reduces shake even with unstabilised lenses; digital stabilisation crops the image slightly.

Fujifilm
—
ShutterMechanical 4 s (30 s in A mode) to 1/4000 s; electronic up to 1/180,000 s; flash sync 1/180 s

The electronic shutter is silent and allows very short exposures, but fast-moving subjects can appear skewed.

Fujifilm
—
Burst shootingMechanical about 8 fps; electronic 13 fps uncropped, 20 fps with a 1.29× crop

In the 20 fps mode speed drops after 168 JPEGs or 66 compressed RAW frames; buffer depth depends on file type.

Fujifilm
—
AutofocusIntelligent hybrid phase + contrast detection; face/eye plus animal, bird, car, motorcycle, airplane and train detection

Subject detection finds the chosen subject type in the frame and tries to keep focus on it.

Fujifilm
Fast Hybrid AF; 759 phase-detection points for stills, 495 for movies; AI recognition of humans, animals, birds, insects, cars, trains and aeroplanes; EV -3 to 20

Hybrid AF combines phase detection with contrast detection. The recognition function finds and tracks the selected subject type in the frame; the user chooses the subject type manually.

Sony
Film simulation20 modes; dedicated film simulation dial on the top plate

Film simulations change the colour and tone of JPEG and HEIF files; a RAW file can be processed later with a different simulation.

Fujifilm

CardSingle SD/SDHC/SDXC slot; UHS-I and UHS-II, V90

With a single slot, recordings cannot be backed up to two cards at once.

Fujifilm
—
Viewfinder0.39-inch OLED; about 2.36 million dots; 0.62× magnification; 100% coverage

Magnification describes how large the viewfinder image appears; the X-T5’s viewfinder has a higher resolution.

Fujifilm
0.39-inch XGA OLED; 2,359,296 dots; approx. 1.07× (0.70× 35 mm equivalent); 22 mm eyepoint Sony
Rear screen3-inch tilting touch LCD; about 1.84 million dots

The screen tilts up and down; it does not flip to the side and face forward, so you cannot see framing when filming yourself.

Fujifilm

Video6.2K 29.97p; 4K 59.94p; Full HD up to 240p; MOV H.265 with 24-bit/48 kHz PCM audio

Fujifilm lists about 45 minutes of continuous recording in 6.2K and 4K with face detection off; this may vary with temperature.

Fujifilm
4K up to 119.88p in 10-bit 4:2:2 (XAVC S/HS 280 Mbps); XAVC S-I 4K 59.94p at 600 Mbps; Full HD 119.88p; 4-channel 24-bit audio

10-bit 4:2:2 recording keeps more tonal information for colour grading. XAVC S-I compresses each frame separately for easier editing, but files are very large. Four-channel audio requires a compatible Multi Interface Shoe microphone.

Sony
USBUSB-C (USB 3.2 Gen 2x1)

USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 transfers up to 10 Gbit/s; it is used for file transfer and tethered shooting.

HDMIMicro HDMI (Type D)

Micro HDMI is a small, fragile connector; securing the cable is advisable when connecting an external recorder.

Fujifilm
—
Audio3.5 mm microphone input; USB-C adapter in the box for headphones

There is no separate headphone jack on the body; video audio is monitored through the adapter.

Fujifilm

FlashPop-up built-in flash; TTL-compatible hot shoe

The built-in flash can trigger external flashes in commander mode.

Fujifilm

BatteryNP-W126S lithium-ion; about 305 frames in normal mode and about 390 in economy mode

The frame count was measured by Fujifilm with the XF35mmF1.4 R; it is clearly lower than with the X-T5’s larger NP-W235 battery.

Fujifilm
NP-FZ100; approx. 550 shots with the viewfinder, 570 with the screen (CIPA); approx. 95–100 minutes of actual movie recording

The battery can be charged inside the camera over USB.

Sony
Dimensions123.8 × 84 × 48.8 mm (34.2 mm at the thinnest point)

Depth is measured including the grip; the lens is not included.

WirelessWi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac; Bluetooth 4.2 low energy

Bluetooth keeps the phone paired and passes location data, while Wi-Fi handles photo transfer.

Fujifilm
Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac (2.4 and 5 GHz); Bluetooth 4.2

Bluetooth is used for sharing location from a phone and for remote control.

Sony

ISO—ISO 100–32000 for stills (expandable to 50–102400); 100–32000 for movies Sony
Image stabilisation—Sensor-shift 5-axis stabilisation; 5.0 stops (CIPA)

The 5-stop figure is pitch/yaw correction measured by Sony to the CIPA standard with the FE 50 mm F1.2 GM lens; it varies by lens and focal length. In video, Active mode crops the image slightly for stronger stabilisation.

Sony
Shutter and burst—Mechanical 1/4000–30 s, electronic 1/8000–30 s; flash sync 1/160 s; Hi+ 11 fps; buffer 59 RAW, 143 JPEG Extra Fine frames

The buffer figure is the approximate number of frames the camera can shoot in a row before waiting to write to the card.

Sony
Screen—3.0-inch touch TFT; 1,036,800 dots; side-opening vari-angle (176° opening, 270° rotation)

The side-opening screen can be turned to face forward so the user can see themselves when shooting selfies and vlogs.

Sony
Card slot—Single SD slot; UHS-I and UHS-II

A UHS-II card helps with high-bitrate video and clears the buffer faster after long bursts. There is no second slot for backup recording.

Sony
Connections—USB-C 5 Gbps (USB 3.2); micro HDMI (Type D, 4K 60p 4:2:2 10-bit output); 3.5 mm microphone and headphone; Multi Interface Shoe with digital audio interface

Over USB-C the camera can draw power and charge its battery with USB Power Delivery; it can also connect to a computer as a webcam over USB.
