- Product Name: Alpha 6400 APS-C Mirrorless Camera 4K Video Camera (Body Only)
- Color: Black
- Product Set: Body Only
- Camera Model Family: Sony a6400
- Digital Camera Type: Mirrorless Camera Body Only
- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Sensor Size: APS-C (23.6 x 15.7 mm)
- Total Pixels: 25 megapixels (Generally, the more pixels, the higher the image resolution and the finer the detail that can be seen.)
- Image Resolution (Display): 6000 x 4000 (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
- Zoom Capability: false (This function allows for magnification of the subject.)
- Digital Zoom: 4x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- In-Camera Image Stabilization: false (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. In-camera stabilization means the image sensor itself moves to counteract detected motion.)
- Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
- Image File Format(s): AVCHD, H.264, JPEG, MPEG-4, RAW (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
- Focus
- Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
- Eye Autofocus (Eye AF): true (Automatically seeks out and focuses on the subject's eye and holds it as the camera and subject move and as the photographer shoots at high frame rates.)
- Exposure Control
- Shutter Speeds: Still images: 1/4000 to 30 sec, Bulb, Movies: 1/4000 to 1/4 (1/3 steps), up to 1/50 in AUTO mode (up to 1/25 in Auto slow shutter mode) (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
- Brightness Control: true (Allows the camera to adjust the brightness of a captured image for optimal exposure.)
- Burst Mode: true (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
- Burst Rate: 60 frames per second
- Self Timer: true
- Self-Timer Delay: 10 seconds, 2 seconds, 5 seconds
- Shooting Modes: Single Shooting, Continuous shooting (Hi+/Hi/Mid/Lo selectable), Self-timer, Self-timer (Cont.), Bracket: Single, Bracket: Cont., White Balance bracket, DRO bracket (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)
- Panorama Mode: true
- Scene Modes: Portrait, Sports action, Macro, Landscape, Sunset, Night scene, Handheld twilight, Night portrait, Anti-motion blur (Exposure modes with predetermined optimal settings for capturing specific scenes. Examples include Landcape, Portrait, and Sports modes.)

- Effective Pixels: 24.2 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
- Lens
- Lens Mount Compatibility: Sony E-Mount
- In-Lens Image Stabilization: false (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. Lens stabilization means an element within the lens moves automatically to counteract detected motion.)
- Flash
- Flash Modes: Automatic, Fill-in, High-speed sync, Off, Rear curtain sync, Red-eye reduction, Slow sync (The flash feature emits light to increase the brightness of a subject in dimly lit environments. Common modes include Auto and Red-Eye Reduction.)
- Integrated Flash: true
- External Flash Mount: Hot Shoe (A cold shoe is a mounting point on top of a camera to securely attach a flash unit or other compatible accessories. A hot shoe is a cold shoe with an electrical connection that insures communication and synchronization between camera and accessory.)

- Display Type: LCD
- Screen Size: 2.95 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
- Screen Resolution: 921,600 dots (Screens come in a range of resolutions (measured in pixels, horizontal x vertical). The higher the resolution, the greater the picture quality.)
- Viewfinder Type: Electronic (A viewfinder is the part of a camera (or attachment) that allows you to see and focus a scene in frame. Optical viewfinders let you view the scene directly through the lens. Electronic viewfinders display the image on a screen in its approximate final form.)
- Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)

- Maximum Video Frame Rate: Up to 30 fps (The maximum frequency at which consecutive images can be captured by a video recording device.)

Excellent, compact mirrorless camera
The A6400 replaced an A6000, which I was very pleased with. I upgraded to the A6400 because of the advances in AF, mainly the addition of tracking and both human and animal eye focus. The animal eye focus feature does, at this point, require a simple online firmware update. The pros with this camera are it’s compact size and light weight, its excellent Sony APS-C sensor, very usable EVF, very good low light performance, and overall fine image quality. That, plus the advanced AF features, make for a formidable little camera. The downside is that it may be too small for larger hands, and definitely does not balance well with larger, heavier lenses. Although improved, Sony menus are not what I would call intuitive. The manual that comes with the camera is very basic, and really leaves much to the new owner to figure things out. Also, as with most mirrorless designs, battery life is relatively poor. So, if you're looking for a carry camera that doesn’t require a padded shoulder strap because of its weight, and want the image quality of an APS-C sensor, the A6400 may be a perfect fit. Just expect to spend some time with the menus, and a lot of time online figuring out how to set it up so you can take advantage of its many features.

Sony a6400 great for surf and action photography
Love this. I’m in Maui and use it for commercial in water surf photography. IG: thesunkissedlens to see me sample photos. I shoot with a sonya9 as well out of water but this camera nails focus and settings just as easily in the surf and moving subjects. I tell my photographers all the time if you’re on a budget but need something that will perform amazing this is what I’d start with.
