Sony A6700 Price: Retail, Deals & Price History

Updated  5 sources

Typical price

$1,498

The Sony a6700 is an APS-C mirrorless camera that sits near the top of Sony's crop-sensor lineup. Its price depends mostly on what you buy with it: the body alone, or a kit that adds a zoom lens. Retailers set their own prices, so the same configuration can differ from one store to the next and from one month to the next.

The figures below come from a live retailer listing, not from Sony's own store, and Sony may charge something different. Treat them as a reference point and check the current price at checkout. Price history is shown separately so you can see how the camera's pricing has moved since launch.

Price by configuration

Sony a6700 body only vs lens kit

Buying the body alone is the usual choice for people who already own E-mount lenses. A body-only purchase leaves you free to pick glass for your own shooting, from compact primes to longer zooms.

The 18-135mm kit bundles a versatile zoom with the camera. The kit is listed at $1,898, against $1,498 for the body, so the lens adds the difference between those two figures. Buying a lens separately later can cost more or less than that, depending on which one you choose and where you shop. Sony has also sold a kit with a 16-50mm power zoom, which is a smaller, lighter lens, though the retailer listing used for this page covers the 18-135mm kit.

Another source reports that B&H and Adorama have recently been around $1,498 for the body only, which matches the listing above. Amazon has sometimes shown a lower price for the body, and short promotions like that come and go, so a one-day deal is not a reliable guide to the normal price.

Sony a6700 price history

The a6700 launched in July 2023. Launch list prices were $1,399 for the body, $1,499 with the 16-50mm lens, and $1,799 with the 18-135mm lens. Those launch prices come from the announcement as reported by Alpha Shooters.

In July 2025 a report from Digital Camera World said Sony raised US prices on many cameras after tariff changes, putting the a6700 body at $1,499. Retail pricing has been uneven since then, and some reports of later increases conflict with what retailers list today. If you are comparing an old article with a current listing, check the date first.

What affects the price of a Sony a6700

Several things move the final number:

  • Whether you buy the body, a lens kit, or a bundle that adds a memory card, bag, or extra battery.
  • The retailer. Large camera stores, general retailers, and marketplace sellers do not always match each other.
  • Promotions. Instant savings and holiday sales can lower the price for a limited time.
  • New, open box, refurbished, or used condition. Used and open box units usually cost less, but warranty terms differ.
  • Import and tariff changes, which have pushed several Sony prices up in recent years.

What to check before you buy

Confirm that the listing is for a US model with a US warranty. Gray market imports can look cheaper but may not be covered by Sony's US service. Check what is in the box, since some bundles list accessories that raise the price without adding much value to you. Look at the return window, too, because camera purchases are easier to reverse when the seller allows a generous period.

If you plan to add lenses, a memory card, spare batteries, and a bag, set a total budget instead of looking at the body price alone. Those extras are often a large share of the real cost of getting started.

Frequently asked questions

How much does the Sony a6700 cost?

At the retailer listing used here, the body alone is $1,498 and the 18-135mm kit is $1,898. Prices vary by store and date, and Sony's own store may list a different figure.

Did the Sony a6700 price go up after launch?

Reports from 2025 describe Sony raising US camera prices after tariff changes. One report put the a6700 body at $1,499 after that change. Current retail listings can differ from list price, so compare several stores.

Is the lens kit cheaper than buying a lens separately?

Kits are usually priced to be competitive with buying the pieces separately, but that depends on the lens and the retailer. Compare the kit price against the body price plus the lens price at the same store.

Does the price include a memory card or bag?

Usually not. Standard listings cover the camera, battery, charger, and basic accessories. Bundles that add a card or bag are priced higher, so read the contents list.

Where can I find the current price?
