Overview
A Sony a6400 APS-C mirrorless body bundled with the E-mount 16-50mm kit lens, built around real-time eye autofocus, 4K video and a flip-up screen for photographers or vloggers moving up from a phone camera.
The autofocus system is the headline here: 425 phase-detect and 425 contrast-detect points cover about 84 percent of the frame, and the camera can shoot at up to 11fps continuous while keeping that tracking active. It also builds time-lapse and slow or quick motion video in-camera, without a separate post-processing step.
- 425-point autofocus across 84% of the frame
- Up to 11fps burst at 24.2MP raw
- Flip-up LCD for vlogging and selfies
- In-camera time-lapse and slow/quick motion video
Who it's for
Suits photographers and vloggers who want an interchangeable-lens APS-C camera with dense autofocus coverage and a flip screen for self-recording. Less suited to buyers who specifically want a fixed-lens compact or a full-frame sensor.
Pros and cons
- Autofocus points cover about 84 percent of the frame
- Up to 11fps continuous shooting at full 24.2MP raw
- Flip-up LCD suited to solo and vlog-style shooting
- Kit includes battery, charger, strap and USB cable
- Charging cable is micro USB rather than USB-C
- 16-50mm kit lens is an everyday zoom, not specialist
- APS-C sensor rather than full frame
Performance notes
Autofocus coverage across 84 percent of the sensor is what lets the a6400 keep tracking a subject through most of the frame, not just the center. Burst shooting holds up to 11fps at 24.2MP raw while that tracking stays active, and the tiltable LCD flips up for framing yourself when shooting solo.
