Product Information

Image quality can often be a decisive factor when it comes to choosing between two high-performance cameras. Auto, Daylight, Shade, Cloudy, Artificial Light, Color Temperature, Flash, Underwater, Fluorescent Light, Custom The key to the A6400's vlogger appeal is its flip-over screen. What was once a feature simply for selfie lovers has become a lot more important for videographers. For bloggers, vloggers and independent content creators, the Sony A6400 is very good. Its still image quality is first rate, its 4K video is even better, and its 180-degree screen and eye-detect AF are handy for single-handed video capture. Even so, its high-tech image capture is poor consolation for its five-year-old design and limited external controls.

The first and most obvious is to shoot in RAW. But I understand that not everyone has the time to edit their shots in post. But there are also “dummy” (non-electronic) adapters for almost every vintage lens mount. Sony’s system is the most capable when it comes to adapting old glass to new cameras. Sensor The body is quite small so there’s only space for one memory card, and it’s slightly surprising that it’s a UHS-I type rather than the faster UHS-II. The A6400 does have a fairly substantial battery, though, with a life of 360 shots when using the viewfinder and 410 shots using the rear screen. There are options in the camera to change the color calibration to a degree. This won’t replace the versatility you have with RAW processing software, but it’s better than nothing.

For years, Sony’s lens lineup for crop sensors had cavernous holes, most of which are now filled. In 2023, you have many choices. These include budget and premium zooms for most focal ranges and several primes.

Sony's α6400 also saw a much-needed upgrade to the photo sharing apps and the reintroduction of time-lapse videos via the menu system. [5] Both the Sony A6700 and A6400 have been designed to be durable and weather-resistant, so they can withstand challenging shooting conditions.It’s also very usable for video recording. If you’re a hybrid shooter, it should definitely be on your list. If you only record video, you have better options at this price point, mainly the Panasonic G9. Key Features of the A6400 Setting up the system exactly to your taste is a meticulous process. But once you’re done, it works like a charm and outperforms anything except Sony’s own high-end models.

While both cameras share similar features such as an anti-dust shutter mechanism, wireless and Bluetooth connection, image stabilisation, and support for RAW images. They also boast similar weather sealing and support for UHS-II cards. Should You Upgrade To The Sony A6700?Both cameras provide high-quality video recording, producing smooth, professional-grade video footage. However, the A6700 edges out the A6400 with its 4K HDR (HLG) video recording capability and 120p slow-motion video at 1080p.
