Beautiful camera for travelling
Crisp eyepiece viewfinder and rear viewing panel, extremely light, top quality photos and extremely flexible shooting capability make this an excellent replacement for our Nikon D90 when we travel. The weight of the DSLR was getting to be a bit much when we went hiking, and having a camera so light and portable is a night and day experience. Recommend it for anyone starting out and would also recommend the zoom lens as it's always tough to switch lenses when you're on a trip and don't want to miss a shot.

Wow! I love the A6400!
I absolutely LOVE this camera. I upgraded from the A6000 (which I still love) because I needed the enhanced tracking capabilities. There was a bit of a learning curve, but I found a very thorough tutorial on YouTube, which walked me through the various menus and helped me get my custom settings dialed in. I love how the eye-autofocus follows a moving subject --- that's exactly what I was missing in my A6000. Sony is a great, reasonably priced camera, and dealing with B & H is always a good experience!

Best entry-level Mirrorless camera
There's a lot to write about here, but in short, it might be the best entry-level Mirrorless camera out there. Sure, the a6500 (it's big brother) has 5-axis sensor stabilization for $300 more, but you can read around on the Internet that it is less than perfect. The image stabilization built into the lens is quite good. And if you really need full body stabilization, you'll be better off buying a $500 gimbal which you can use with any camera. Oh, and the 4K video on this is remarkably good, too!

wonderful camera with the right lens
I have owned more than thirty digital cameras since 2000, several of them being Sony including the RX10 and a6000. The a6400 adds some nice features and mated with the 18-135mm lens is just about as perfect as a rig gets. For a nature/water photog like me, the absence of a built-in ND filter (which is in the RX10, V1 only) irks me, hence the four stars, but Sony has long played the game of being coy about features, probably so they can sell you another camera later - apparently that strategy works.

Sony alpha 4k
I like this camera lot, and the 4k function works great, four under $1000 I am good for 4k, I transfered the MP files right from the camera and works fine. Great camera for me. using my external; lenses I use with my Nex camera for stop motion and live action. the movie button is still very difficult to depress in a hurry, should be larger. getting great color with Lumetrie presets in Priemere. this camera has very consistent exposure on manual, so you can do stop action with no external program.

Just What the Doctor Ordered
I'm a 73 year old life-long advanced amateur photographer with newly acquired back issues. Along the road I've had the best, biggest and heaviest of camera gear. The A6400/18-135 combination is a very capable, small and light weight camera with a lens which is perfect for documenting 95% of my travels. It will take nice pictures right out of the box with AUTO, P, A, S & M; but to use all of its capabilities requires several hours of getting familiar with the menu system. Then you're good to go.

Focus Menus
The camera takes outstanding pictures. The only issue I have with it is the focus menus are outrageously confusing. There must be a better way to automatically put it in tracking focus, really. So I can not recommend it to any person that has problems with following menu selections and wanting a camera with little hassle as possible. So if one feels challenged by menus do not buy this camera. But then again one can set it to automatic and shoot away. But you dont need this camera to do that.

Big things in a small package
I used to have the A7III and it was an amazing camera. However, a huge event made me realize that I wasn't worthy of such a beast, so I looked back and went with the a6400 instead. I will miss the high ISO quality on that full frame camera, but being able to carry such a light camera without tiring your hand or neck is a pretty fun experience by itself. Yes most of us wished it had a newer sensor, but right now, it outperforms most of the competition especially in low light video.

Amazing with Sigma 16mm 1.4
Ive had my camera for about a month now and I gotta say its amazing. I sold my Canon80D and bought the a6400 the same day. I didnt have any Sony lenses or a SD card that support 4K video so this bundle was right up my ally. The camera bag is really good quality too. If youre thinking about making this purchase, I highly suggest it! I also highly recommend the Sigma 16mm 1.4 contemporary lens. Dont be fooled with the Contemporary brand, its definitely a ART quality!

Perfect for travel
If you can tolerate Sony's menu system (I can) then this is an ideal travel camera (and really, great for a lot of purposes, but I use pro gear most of the time, and have no desire to carry it on a trip). With a 1.5 crop factor, you're at 24-75mm, which is a nice range for travel. Great quality images out of camera - probably better if I had spent more time learning the settings (but I purchased this the day before we left for Switzerland). Excellent overall.

Lightweight Awesome camera
I have been shooting this camera with the Sigma 30/56 1.4 combo along with the 18-135. Fantastic image quality especially in RAW. Tracking AF is excellent with people and makes for a fun experience to use. You will need to customize some of the controls to your liking and get familiar with how everything works. Spend some time building up the MY MENU screen with frequently used menu items to avoid having to dig around. Once you get setup its a joy to use.

Great for vlogging, and everything else!
The biggest critique on this camera was that it didnt have IBIS. From what Ive experienced, its not that necessary as its a minimal difference when youre actually walking around. Most cameras with IBIS would be heavier and bigger. This is such a compact camera with great color science, upgraded AF and processor. The mic placement may not be ideal, but if you have a a6300 cage, you can use that to place the mic on the right side of the camera.

Love it
I am not a professional photographer but have an online store selling jewelry and have been using a Sony DSC-HX1 w/ lens adapter 72mm macro. I decided to upgrade from a point and shoot and stayed with Sony - went with a6400. B & H specialists really helped me narrow down what I needed and I love this camera with an added Sony E 30mm f/3.5 Macro Lens. I couldnt be happier. I am still learning and will be for a while but images are beautiful.

Well worth the price!
At first reading the specs it might seem like its lacking with no IBIS and limited touch screen functionality but boy was I in for a surprise. This is an excellent option for beginner or intermediate photographers or even videographers. The a6400 is faster on start up than the a6500 and has unlimited recording time for video. The autofocus is crazy FAST and battery life does seem to be improved. Very happy with this purchase.

In love with this camera!
My first medium range camera but it feels extremely professional and durable. I bought the $998 version with the smaller kit lens but it has everything I need for daily pictures and vlogging. Ill buy a smallrig cage or bracket because it does block the selfie screen so I can attach Rode microphone but so far no real issues. Get a few extra batteries if youll be recording or taking videos all day. Good job Sony.

Perfect
This camera is amazing. The only on their camera I had real experience with was my sisters D5600, and this is so much easier to use, and sharper. The kit lens doesnt deserve all the flack it gets too, its not that bad. The two best things about this camera, combine to make it absolutely fantastic: the 11 FPS continuous shooting, and the amazing and fast AF. These two things make taking action shots a breeze.

Do not purchase this camera!!
The AF on this camera is amazing!! That being said the rolling shutter is horrible!! you see from other reviews some of the other issues with this camera. Sony did terrible thing when they released this camera full knowing they would follow it with the 6600 which has IBIS. They are now releasing a new APSC G lense 16-55 F2.8 which DOES NOT have OSS. I'm done with sony now. Anyone want to purchase a 6400.

Best APS-C Camera
So far the best A6XXX series camera on the market right now. Features are future proof. It will be the next A6000 for a very long time. Spending more than a grand on a crop sensor is not the right choice thats why I skipped A6600 and purchased A6400. The price range for A6600 is absolutely ridiculous. One should go for full frame instead. And buying experience at B&H was painless and fast. So thank you BH!!

upgrade from my a6000
I've had the a6000 for 3 years and loved shooting with it! Decided to treat myself this Xmas and upgrade to the a6400, and so far loving it. The autofocus is awesome! I get more usable shots in action and wildlife situations. Realtime Eye AF is the bomb for portraits. I like the added weather sealing on this camera (lenses seem to fit more snugly) and also the slightly warmer colors out of the camera.

Worth every cent!
We purchased a Sony A6300 as a B camera and it quickly became a solid A for projects that we need to have a small setup. With the improvement in the A6400 this camera is going to me amazing. After watching several review and keynotes on this camera we sold our a6300 and purchased this. It is so worth every cent! Amazing low light, 4K, S&Q all for under 1K for the body alone. Its a win all around!

No 30min limit changed me life
For shooting church services, weddings, etc. This camera is great. Small and compact with pro features and no video recording limit. You can just buy a cheap 4k monitor and your set... No more expensive external recorders. A great all in one package for event shooters. Ibis would have been nice.. But if you stick with native emount lenses with oss your fine. Amazing bang for the buck!

Awesome Camera/Lens Combo
This camera lens setup is absolutely the best for your travel needs. It was my main camera/lens for a three week cruise throughout Italy and the Mediterranean. It is lightweight, very versatile and the images produced are excellent. The only drawback is battery life, I opted for an additional battery holder which helped that problem.I would definitely recommend this product.

Too many menus
This was billed as THE thing for a vlogger - NOT. The flip-up screen is difficult to get up when positioning yourself in front of it. There literally must be 100+ different menu options and no paper manual for quick reference. I still can't figure out how to be sure Autofocus is actually going to work from day to day. White balance - like everything else - too many options.

Huge improvement over the a6000
The major drawback of the a6000 was its iffy autofocus. That is strikingly solved by the 6400. Autofocus and especially AF tracking are very impressive. There are other cameras of this type and in this price range that exceed it in one feature or another, but overall this is a fine camera, and if spot-on tracking AF is important to you, give it some serious consideration.
