Customers are saying
Customers have good things to say about the product's excellent camera quality, overall performance, and ease of use. Many also appreciate its compact size, light weight, quick autofocus, and attractive price point, along with its innovative screen design. However, some concerns have been raised regarding its relatively poor battery life and the absence of in-body image stabilization (IBIS). Additionally, while the menu system is described as confusing, customers are pleased that overheating is no longer an issue.

Excellent Quality Camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the a6000 previously and the NEX-6. I absolutely LOVE the autofocus on the a64000. It's incredibly fast and works well with face tracking. Image quality is excellent. I'm glad they have the digital leveller on this camera too!

AWESOME if you want a corp frame
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great option for a corp frame. But I can tell the difference verses a full frame. Not everyone can tell but I decided to take it back and go full frame. But again most beginners won't tell. Great option.

Excelent camera
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.OK, so not as many buttons to control settings as the a7 series but that's a minor inconvenience once you get the hang of it. For its size it is amazing. Very pleased with this purchase.

Great camera!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far x amount hikes has been great, i love that you can see the image up to an approximate range but its great when you are recording a video with multiple cameras/devices! A worth while upgrade from a Sony a6000.

Great Autofocus system
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is camera has an excellent autofocus system that works well both in photo and video modes. Not only can you track faces, you can also set the autofocus to track the left or right eye. It’s a great upgrade from the a6000 and a6300.

Great camera for a beginner!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Recently switched to mirrorless cameras from DSLR and love how small and compact the a6400 is. But at the same time, it is powerful! Would recommend pairing it with the Sigma 16 f/1.4 for stills and any Sony OSS lens for videos.

A large camera in a small body
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A camera like this should not exist. To many pro features in a small compact body at an amazing price. It leaves you with enough money to buy good glass, a better microphone and even a gimbal, without breaking the bank.
I would recommend this to a friend Love!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s everything I need and want! My first camera and I love it.

Amazing compact and powerful
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was in a hard debate between this and the a6000 due to price variance but paying the extra was def worth it in future proofing yourself. Amazing photo quality a must buy if the market for a mirrorless camera
I would recommend this to a friend Just what I had hoped for...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the best buy body only model as reviewed, after an abysmal experience with a revival electronics distributor. Best Buy had the fastest shipping and a more competitive price than anywhere else for the body only model at time of purchase. I would recommend to anyone, specially for video capture, content creation and review making. I liked the price of the body only, so I could then pick the exact lense I knew I wanted, without having to spend an extra $2-500 on arguably unecessary accessories and add-on components. Thank you!

Perfect camera for 2020 and the virtual world
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a hard time deciding between this and the Sony A6400, but for the job I needed it for (live-streaming) this was the way to go! So easy to easy and had a few settings that help.
