Great camera for both beginners and professionals
|Posted .Within a few days of release Iv had the opportunity to take this camera to Havasufalls and recorded a 2hr speech a 3 days later. Have yet to be able to edit the raw pics from the falls because of the Lightroom update has yet to come. But very hopeful because of the ease of use. Battery consumption overall have been good. I didn’t not come from a previous model so I can not comment on the comparison. Tilts screen very useful. I don’t mind the hot shoe placement. Timelaps feature was a little hard to et used to. But after a few tries. It became faster and faster for me to came changes. Have already recommended this camera for the price. And Sony is over delivering in my opinion. Glad I stayed with Sony.

Quality4 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Love the animal auto-eye focus available in a download. Features galore. Short life battery so get spares. The glass side of the flip screen is always exposed. Canon M-50 allows you to hide the screen side. Stunning clarity with the 18-135mm kit lens. SD card is not that easy to extract. Overall, well worth the money. Canon and Nikon are playing catchup in the auto-eye focus area.

My first DSLR/Mirrorless camera
Posted .This is my first purchases of a "real" camera, and I couldn't be happier. The price was a bit of a shock, but this camera had more features than the similarly modeled Sony cameras for my purposes. The 18-135 zoom lens is great for wide angle AND telephoto shots. I know that I have a lot to learn before I can really take full advantage of this camera, but so far I am very impressed! I also purchased the 50mm 1.8/f lens and really like the photos I've taken in my first day with the camera (even with my crappy apartment lighting).

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:For video, Picture quality, PriceFirst of all, I have to say that this is my first camera. I have owned it for about a two months and I am still learning to use it. This camera offers many possibilities and it has a good auto mode for those who start using it without any time to read the instruction manual. The IQ is good, the size is adequate for traveling it feels high quality and sturdy. Picture and video quality is top notch, and Lighting fast auto-focus no regrets so far.

Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Pros mentioned:4k video, For video, Picture qualityThis is my first camera. I plan to make YouTube videos with it. I’m still just playing around with it and trying to learn everything there is to know with the camera, but I do love it. The build quality is great. It shoots video in 4K and snaps some amazing daytime photos. Low light shots are a bit of a let down, and image stabilization is not as good as some of the higher end Sony’s. There are a lot of complaints about the menu, but honestly I don’t have a problem with it. Overall a great learning camera with a lot to grow into.

The Sony a6400 is a perfect fit for me. Not too complicated to setup once I watched a few youtube reviews and the quality is undeniable. I’ve even used it to record some interpreting “how-to” videos and I’m very satisfied with the quality of how they turned out!

Q: QuestionHow long can this camera continously record? I'm looking for a dslr for streaming
Asked by Quietmint.
- A:Answer The Sony A6400 no longer has a recording limit, so theoretically you can record until the battery dies or SD card fills up. I've heard it does have a tendency of overheating when recording in 4k 30p @100MBPS, which isn't surprising because its a small body with so much tech. But I assume it'll be fine with 1080p at 60fps and 120fps.
