Just curious, do you have your evf refresh rate set to high or normal? With the olders a6x's, you could set it to 120Hz but the manual said the image quality degraded - there isn't that caveat in the a6700 manual. And is the lagginess only when shooting burst or in general?
Thanks for sharing duncang your feedback with images.
Is lag there also when 120fps EVF is set?
I'll wait until duncang responds. However in my case in shooting tennis and volleyball, I don't think this will be a big issue. Birds are tougher because they are relatively smaller in the frame and also unpredictable.
I have it set to high. Lagginess only when shooting, otherwise it is very nice.
I use mechanical shutter. You will get distortion with e-shutter.
When viewing and not shooting the EVF is very good, but when shooting the lag is a problem.
I think for tennis/volleyball it will be fine. The birds I am shooting are moving very fast and quite erratic. Relatively speaking a tennis/valleyball player is moving very slowly.
Those are amazing! I shot tennis last year with the A6600 and the 135/1.8 GM. When the player is closer the box is on the player's eye but when she was farther it didn't register the eye albeit the tracking focus was still spot on. It seems that in the A6700 even if the subject is far it still detects the subject's eye. Moreover the A6700's buffer is much bigger with almost endless shots in jpegs.A few more reasons - these are original size. Very nice colours, sharp as a tack and the autofocus really struggles to miss. I am still trying to find one image in a sequence which is not tack sharp. I assume this is the performance one gets with the A7rv. Shame the EVF is a little challenging during shooting.
My initial impression is this blows the R7 out of the water in terms of actual in focus images.

Thanks.....please keep the pictures coming!!! Images are indeed tack sharp!!!
Tack sharp is relative, or what is the measure of tack sharp? It's subjective on real life photos. When I opened these full size on the 15" laptop the sharpness is better than I expected. The smaller screen on the phone is not helping to see how sharp the subject in a picture is.Phil Thach has the R7 plus the 100 500mm and he also placed a Preorder for the a6700 and just purchased the Sony 200 600mm. He also has a couple of Nikons and he placed a Preorder for the Nikon 180 600mm.A few more reasons - these are original size.

So he will be my main source for comparison on cropped cameras between Nikon, Sony, and Canon. By the way, I wonder if that Swallow made it. Seems it was the TARGET. Plus all the shots aren't TACK sharp. But they are good shots regardless.
Needless to say I can’t wait for August 3rd to get mine.Tack sharp is relative, or what is the measure of tack sharp? It's subjective on real life photos.

No. There is a significant difference in size and weight. When I travel I prefer carrying the smaller camera.
