EOS RPvs A6700vs ZV-E10 II
Which should you buy?
Entry Full-Frame Stills Photography — EOS RP (2019): An affordable gateway into the RF system. The RP makes sense as a stepping stone camera — if you're committed to Canon RF glass, this is the cheapest full-frame body to buy those lenses for. Just manage expectations on video and battery life.
All-Round & Video — A6700 (2023): Best-in-class autofocus and 4K/120p video in a compact APS-C body — the standout camera under £1,000.
Youtube & Content Creation — ZV-E10 II (2024): Designed from the ground up for solo creators — every control in the right place, 4K/60p, and a directional mic built in.
