    Upgraded to mirrorless from Canon and can never go back! Nearly half the weight of my old 70D with way more built in features. 4k video is amazing and doesnt have a recording limit like the older sonys. Still images are crazy sharp. Autofocus is crazy fast in video and photo modes. No more missed shots due to focusing.

    Great camera. Bestbuy did a great job repackaging the open boxed item and made every effort to explain all details of purchase and return policies.

    Been loving my Sony Alpha 6400 since the day I bought it! Autofocus is great and the camera itself is very light compared to my old Nikon DSLR camera! Now am planning to buy some more lens for my Sony Mirrorless camera in the near future!

    So I’ve had the A6400 for about a month now and I’m impressed so far. This camera takes pin sharp photos and has really good autofocus. The camera feels solid in the hand and the 18-135mm lens that came with it, is just perfect for everyday shooting. The flip out screen is nice for getting certain angles or shooting video of yourself. The only con about this camera is there’s no In Body Stabilization. So if your going to shoot video, don’t walk with this camera while filming. It will be very shaky. The OSS Stabilization in the lens are really for photos I would imagine but they really don’t help for video when walking. Video quality is really good shooting B roll and interviews.

    Good camera. I enjoy using it to take sports photos. It is also good for traveling due to its smaller size and more compact style. The camera is easly customizable with what every your preferences may be.

    Already owned an older Sony but wanted a camera that also did video. It has great features for both still and video. Smaller than my other SLR so easier to carry. Great picture quality. Fully manual to fully auto and every setting in between.

    Im not 100% a noobie to photography but this camera definitely helps with shooting very clear photos, sony’s auto focus is one of the greatest I’ve ever seen. The kit lemse that comes with this camera has such a variety in zoom and focal lengths. Truely a beginner friendly mirrorless camera

    Decided to get this as a gift for my wife. She absolutely loved it. It’s simple, yet effective with great quality images and controls. I went with the E-mount because it gives you the possibility of using different lenses. Definitely recommend after using for trips with my wife.

    Phenomenal. This camera truly produces breathtaking photos. It's easy to use for a non-expert like myself. Has tons of added features included Bluetooth. I was impressed I can take a photo and send it directly to my phone with a click of a button. Lots of accessory options available.

    The a6400 has so many features. It's a got all the normal "beginner-level" features with aperature and ISO settings with some custom pre-built portrait and landscape settings. I'm still a beginner with understanding the tons of features on this camera. I understand the basics of photography and the best ways to get "the shot," but my recommendation is this: If you are wanting a great camera with lots of features (including great video recording for vlogging), then this camera is a great pick. Video Pros: It has a flip of screen for monitoring yourself during your vlog shooting and a mic for voice recording. Photo Pros: 11frames a sec Many abilities to manipulate a shot before capturing it many other "specs" about the auto-focus abilities = AMAZING All in all, I really like the product even though I'm only scratching the surface right now on it's capabilities. I'm a noob... but at least I'm not always using "auto" mode for every shot.
