Great pictures

By Macprudence

Easy to use and set up. I used a few YouTube videos for helping with explaining each setting. The only thing that doesn't make sense and will hopefully be fixed in future updates is the human and animal eye recognition. You have to go in manually to specify which one your getting ready to photograph each time. It would be nice just to point at either and the camera automatically knows which is which. Animals and children wont wait for you to fumble your way through the menu to set the human o...

Sony Alpha a6400 Mirrorless Digital Camera Body

Sony’s latest technological advancements are showcased in the new Sony Alpha a6400 Mirrorless Digital Camera. This lightweight camera is the midrange model Sony offers to both professionals and casual users who want to boost the quality of their work. The a6400 is a major improvement from its predecessor in terms of build quality, and boasts a 24.2MP APS-C sensor and a BIONZ X image processor, giving it an ISO range of 100 to 102,400 when capturing still images. It now comes with Sony’s fastest autofocus acquisition at 0.02 seconds and has 425 phase-detect AF points, allowing for better accuracy and more image area coverage. It also features "Real-time Eye AF" and "Real-time Tracking," which combines AI algorithms with autofocus techniques to yield better image and video quality. The a6400 can shoot bursts at 11fps while still having continuous autofocus. It can capture 4k footage at 30p and comes with a fully tiltable 180-degree LCD touchscreen. This degree of flexibility, along with its lightweight build, makes the a6400 attractive to on-the-go photographers, videographers, and vloggers alike. Available lenses include the E PZ 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS Lens and the E 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS lens.

α6400 - Grab the Best of Life

Despite its compact size and light weight, the α6400 delivers speedy performance and a range of features you'd expect from a full-frame model. Whether you're taking still shots or movies, creative compositions or everyday selfie shots, you'll enjoy beautiful images that you'll want to share, on the go.

Unparalleled AF performance is the key to beautiful shots

Unparalleled AF performance is the key to beautiful shots

Fast and accurate autofocus lets you capture fleeting moments in stunning detail, thanks to a combination of innovative technologies. A total of 425 phase-detection AF points work in conjunction with contrast-detection AF to achieve a remarkable 0.02 sec* speed, while High-density AF Tracking Technology follows even erratically moving subjects.
*Based on Sony research, measured using CIPA-compliant guidelines, and internal measurement method with an E 18-135 mm F3.5-5.6 OSS lens mounted, Pre-AF off and viewfinder in use.

More accurate autofocus in dim lighting

More accurate autofocus in dim lighting

Highly accurate autofocus is now possible even in dark settings, thanks to advances in the AF algorithm. With this model, the lower limit on the AF detection brightness range has been reduced to EV-2* when in AF-S mode.
*At ISO 100 equivalent, F2.0 lens

Real-time Eye AF, Real-time Tracking
Enhanced Real-time Eye AF supports portrait shooting

Enhanced Real-time Eye AF supports portrait shooting

Real-time Eye AF detects and autofocuses on the eyes of your subjects when you half-press the shutter. Either the left eye, the right eye, or auto can be specified, and when AF-C is set, it maintains a stable focus even when part of the face is hidden, the face is backlit or the subject is facing downwards.

Easier manual focus with an improved peaking function

Easier manual focus with an improved peaking function

The camera's peaking function color-highlights the most sharply focused section of the entire image area when you're using manual focus. Blue has now been added to the display's other peaking colors (red, yellow and white) to improve the visibility of the focus peak areas when you're doing the delicate focusing required for macro or portrait shooting.

Real-time Tracking* reliably maintains focus

For sporting events and other situations where your subjects are moving quickly, keeping them in constant focus can make all the difference between catching an important, dramatic moment or missing it.

*Will be activated when [Tracking] is set in the [Focus Area] menu.


A new subject-recognition algorithm holds onto moving subjects

A new subject-recognition algorithm holds onto moving subjects

A newly developed subject recognition algorithm processes spatial information based on color, subject distance (depth), pattern (brightness), and face and eye information at high speed in real time.

Seamless transitions from body to face and eye tracking

Seamless transitions from body to face and eye tracking

When shooting a distant person in motion, the tracking system captures the whole body, and the focus area will seamlessly change between the face and the eyes according to the condition of the subject.

Simply touch and track

Once Touch Tracking is set in the menu, select your subject simply by touching the monitor. For either stills or movies, the camera will begin to auto-track the subject.

Incredible image quality

Enjoy beautiful, remarkably detailed images

Thanks to the large sensor and the latest image-processing engine, you can shoot whatever you encounter in your everyday life, with beautifully crisp and clear images and natural colors, even in low-light settings.

A 24.2 megapixel* sensor plus enhanced image processing engine

A 24.2 megapixel* sensor plus enhanced image processing engine

The APS-C sensor features copper wiring and enhanced circuit processing that aid in boosting light collection efficiency. In conjunction with the image processing engine, this helps achieve superior image resolution and more natural depiction of textures.

*Approx. effective.

Cleaner images even in dim light

Cleaner images even in dim light

Improved noise suppression has led to cleaner image quality, even in dark scenes where high-sensitivity shooting is required. The native ISO sensitivity has increased to a maximum ISO 32000 (with expanded ISO sensitivity at a maximum ISO 102400 for stills). Noise reduction is particularly effective in the frequently used medium-to-high sensitivity range.

Natural-looking images that match what you see

Image-processing algorithms inherited from full-frame cameras have led the way to more lifelike color reproduction. Human skin tones look more natural, and reproduction of plant colors has also been improved.

Steady, precise AF tracking for better movies

Steady, precise AF tracking for better movies

Fast Hybrid AF brings high speed, accuracy and tracking performance to meet the stringent autofocus demands of 4K movies. AF tracking sensitivity can be adjusted for either stable focus or responsive refocusing, depending on the nature of the scene, and Touch Tracking lets you initiate tracking of a moving subject simply by touching the LCD screen.

Create time-lapse movies

Newly introduced interval shooting, which is continuous shooting with a pause of 1-60 seconds between still shots, can be carried out within the camera. This can then be used to create time-lapse movies* on a PC using the Viewer app from the Imaging EdgeTM desktop applications.

Support for professional-quality mic and audio input

Support for professional-quality mic and audio input

External microphones can be attached via the microphone jack, and there is also an option for line input via XLR connectors using the camera's separately available XLR adaptor kit, which enables connection with various high-end microphones for professional-level audio.

S-Gamut/S-Log* Shooting

S-Gamut/S-Log* Shooting

S-Log shooting gives you flexibility to make more expressive movies by performing color grading in post-production. The S-Log3 and S-Log2 gamma curves feature a wide dynamic range (up to 1300%) that can help minimize blown highlights and blocked shadows. The S-Log3 gamma setting also provides an impressive 14-stop latitude.

*S-Log2 and S-Log3 are premised on processing pictures.
