  • Great overall
Style: Base Set: w/16-50mm Lens
Great quality and so many features. The video quality is great and its compact enough to carry around wherever I go. Only downside is falling in love with photography. The battery life is ok for photos but if its video, I'd recommend multiple batteries

The Sony Alpha a6400 is an exceptional camera for both enthusiasts and professionals. Its impressive autofocus system is quick and accurate, ensuring you never miss a moment. The 24.2 MP sensor captures stunning images with vibrant colors and crisp details. The compact design makes it easy to carry, and the 180-degree flip screen is perfect for vlogging. Battery life is solid, allowing for extended shooting sessions. Overall, this camera is a fantastic !have for few years now ... show more

  • Great camera
Style: Base Set: Camera Only
I love this camera. Light weight, and takes great photos. I love Sony. I usually shoot with my A7iv, but wanted this for my street setup. You can't go wrong with this if you're on a budget, but want quality photos. Pair this body with a Tamron lens, and you're good to go for low $$.

  • Exceptional camera.
Style: Base Set: w/18-135mm Lens
Exceptional camera. Menu system not as bad as reviews said. Does not get hot at all after a 2.5hr non-stop video at 1080p using dummy battery. Does get quite warm, in a 72deg room, when recording at 4k, but not hot. Internal mics are mediocre, but added shotgun mic and audio is excellent. This is the water-resistant AL-magnesium version, a step up from a6100; worth added expense for magnesium housing and water resistance for protection on a rainy day. Bought with 19-135 lens, pics are excellent. Only flaw is why the camera cannot output h.264 video over USB or the WiFi? Instead have to buy a hokey (price gouged) HDMI "capture" card; HDMI is already digital. Sony has h.264 compression in the a6400. It is used on videos recorded to the SD card. The new a7 will have h.265 lossless compression; too bad they were not on the ball and did not put this in the a6400. h.264 compression is several years old! UPDATE: After a year and a half, all I can say is fantastic! I am nearsighted and the red focus assist negates the need to wear glasses or use the viewfinder's built-in diopter adjuster. I use this cam with a Laowa 9mm rectilinear lens (manual focus) for indoor pics, and the articulated screen is great for this. It allows the camera to work like a Hassalblad; holding the camera low to get the angle right (so vertical lines are parallel). One can hold the camera at waist height and tilt the screen up. With the 35-135 kit zoom, the auto-focus is excellent. With the SEL200600G, works great, but the big zoom does use up the battery, so keep a spare. Another wow factor is the digital-zoom-in-while-focusing (C1 button in still pic mode). This allows viewing the image zoomed in to get the focus perfect. Water rest mag case is the way to go too. I never worry about being out in the rain with this camera (but I do make an effort to not let it get wet anyway to be safe). probably have shot several THOUSAND pics and all I can say is "wish I had this camera thirty years ago". Thanks Sony! ... show more

  • Great camera with great features for a good price.
Style: Base Set: Camera Only
I like that this line of mirrorless cameras is lightweight and is relatively compact compared to a digital DLR. As with many of the newer digital cameras the 6400 shoots beautiful video and I am especially happy with it having a stereo mini input that would allow use of high end microphones. The camera is light years ahead of the bulky cameras I used to use on commercial field shoots. Aspiring videographers don't know how lucky they are to have tools like this at their disposal at such a low cost. Not only is the video stellar, the stills are too. I love the continuous shooting mode when shooting wildlife. Sony has a great lineup of lenses to pair with the camera and other lens manufacturers are developing lenses for the Sony E Mount cameras as well. ... show more

  • Solid Entry-Level Camera
Style: Base Set: Camera Only
The Sony Alpha a6400 is a solid entry-level option. I bought it thinking it would be amazing for my sports photography, and while it was good, it wasn't great. Pros: Good for Landscapes and Portraits: This camera excels in capturing beautiful landscapes and portraits. Compact and Lightweight: Easy to carry around, making it great for travel and on-the-go shooting. User-Friendly: Perfect for beginners or those new to mirrorless cameras. Cons: Not Ideal for Sports Photography: I realized this after upgrading to the Sony A7iii, which is much better suited for fast-paced action shots. Overall, the Sony Alpha a6400 is a great entry-level camera, especially for landscapes and portraits. It’s a reliable and user-friendly option for those starting out in photography. ... show more
