My older Sony 5NEX stopped working. I debated for a long time if I wanted to get another sony bc I do love Canon as I always liked the way color came out on their cameras better. But eventually ended up getting one as I already had the longer zoom lens and this camera is more compact.
Debated between this and the A6000. Am so glad I spent the extra money to get this camera that was more expensive as it had the better lens and slightly more features than the other version. I took pics during a musical for my nephew. It was extremely dark and I didn't use a flash and the pictures turned out great! and the color and clarity are excellent. Also used my longer lens for a college graduation. it captures motion/movement better than my previous camera - I used to have a lot of blurry pics before. So far I've only used it a few times - but very happy with results. Very easy for amateur to use. I am a bit of a lazy photog and mostly use auto focus.

Great camera with amazing autofocus and 4k capabilities, my only gripe is the outdated micro usb charging cable and the short battery life but that’s due to the small body format, I took some amazing pictures with a6400 and had a great time editing those pictures with my iPhone edit software and Lightroom

Amazing camera shoots high quality video and photos. Highly recommend for someone starting photography or videography. Has a lot of features to play around with. I would say the only flaw is batter runs out fast so keep extras on you or charger!!

Purchased for my wife as a Christmas gift. Figured it could be a great way for her capture moments of the family instead of always using a cell phone. This camera has been all I expected/wanted plus some. Easy to use and very compact so able to carry with you on a daily basis if wanted.

Best Sony mirrorless camera

Best Sony mirrorless camera to buy for someone trying to learn photography. Easy to use and we can find a lot of helpful online videos to get accustomed with all camera features. Eye tracking and other features are helpful. Flip screen is useful for taking selfies. Kit lens 18-135 mm provided is light weight and covers a wide range of focal length. Kit lens is enough for most of the scenarios to take photos.

Light weight , portable camera. Have had awhile now. Pictures are clear. I am new to sony after many years using canon. Its definitely more complicated . Canon seemed more user friendly. I am slowly learning all features of this camera. I wanted a lighter more portable camera and this is that.

The Sony a6400 is a versatile APS-C mirrorless camera that excels in both photography and videography. It features a 24.2MP Exmor CMOS sensor, delivering vibrant and detailed images. Its Real-Time Eye Autofocus and 425-point hybrid AF system ensure quick and precise focus, making it ideal for portraits and action shots. The camera supports 4K video recording with full pixel readout, providing high-quality footage without pixel binning, and includes advanced color grading options like S-Log3 and HLG. Additionally, the a6400's 3.0-inch tilting touchscreen LCD enhances its usability for vlogging and creative shooting angles, making it a solid choice for both amateurs and professionals.

Great image quality, 4k video recording, tilt up lcd.
This camera is packed with latest tech.
But... Battery is its weakness.
Without battery grip offered by sony, battery life remains as its weakness.
And as a sony camera, it has its usual annoying non-touch menu system.
Other than that, it's a great value for the money.

Another Top Notch from Sony

This camera from Sony is an outstanding camera for under $1,000. I have only owned large DSLR Minolta and Sony products for the last 30 years. So, it takes some getting used to with this much smaller APSC camera, but the downsize in weight is a welcome change. The A6400 is feature rich and you can start using it right out of the box on Auto or you can use dive into more professional settings. I highly endorse this camera and have not regretted buying it once.

I absolutely adore this camera. I returned my A7II for this camera and have no regrets. The autofocus is incredibly fast, the camera itself is amazingly light, and the included kit lens is shockingly good. I use this camera for everything ranging from Macro to landscape photography, fast paced action shots of my dogs and portraits of my family. The auto eye focus on both humans and animals is incredible.
