Today I’m going to tell you about the Sony A6400 and help you decide whether it’s a good value. I think it’s one of the best Sony cameras on the market as far as features and value. I will discuss the A6400 sensor, processor, and autofocus for both photography and video. I’ll show you #sonya6400 tons of photo samples, and we’ll talk about dynamic range and low light performance (night shooting)
We’ll see how this new flip screen was implemented by Sony, and whether it was a good choice.
I will also include A6400 4K footage and several example of slow motion shot at 1080P 120 fps.
I’ll talk about other features like interval shooting, discuss the ergonomics of the #sony #a6400 as well as the battery life, viewfinder and some things that frustrated me about this camera.

Have been thinking about getting the a6400 and stumbled upon this video. The quality of this review is amazing! It’s so refreshing to see someone looking at this from a photography standpoint - the majority of videos I’ve seen have been from youtubers looking at this solely for vloggers. Thank you so much for making this!
Glad it was helpful and thank you for being part of the channel.
Totally off topic but had to share it. So as I was watching this video on a bigger screen, my wife walked in and thought you were Ross from Friends! XD
LOL! I get that all the time. Was the review ok?
So true😄😄😄😄😄😄.
Another one 😂
"The one with the camera review"?
Omg I know right I came to the comments to see if anyone said that
Thank you so much for this in-depth Review, I was trying to find a suitable cam for my overhead drawing videos and I think this one is the best among all. It has all the features I need, like flip screen, HDMI out, Microphone jack, charging while recording and most importantly NO 30min limit for videos which is AWESOME!!!
The lack of 30 minute recording limit is so big for artists! You can always record externally, but it's nice to be able to do that in-camera.
I'm super glad the video was helpful and appreciate your kind words and support!
Yeah this is the one I'm looking at too for my art
sorry to be offtopic but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot my password. I would appreciate any help you can give me!
@Seth Reese instablaster :)
@Chaim Wilder thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im trying it out now.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

UPDATE: I have seen reports about the a6400 rates for both 360 and 410 shots depending on your settings.
What's up everyone?! I hope this review of the Sony A6400 was helpful. Did you like it? I wasn’t sure I was going to like this camera but it’s a great value. The image quality is excellent, I love the no recording limit, and the autofocus is fantastic. As usual, I love the slow motion and appreciate this first attempt at a forward-facing screen (I wish there was an articulating screen).
Was there too much detail? Not enough? What did you like, and also, what did you not like? What would you like to see more of? Would love to know what you think, good or bad. I am grateful in advance 🙏
✌️
Thanks!
@@TechGearTalk most Wlcm ✌️ Brother 😃
👊
5:25 love the smile on his face while shutter was firing. so camera can put smile on ones face. priceless :)
That's true joy right there :)
Thanks the great review. Subbed. And I'm so glad you've found a rewarding career after your excellent work on Friends.
I do this whenever Rachel and I are on a break 😂
Appreciate you joining the community and the kind words!
Hahaha!!!!
😆
I’m glad I got recommended this video. I ordered an a6400 Sunday as my first camera and reviews have all been wonderful, but this is by far one of the best in depth reviews I’ve ever seen for any product. Kudos, sir!
CONGRATS on the new camera!!! I'm so glad the review was helpful and thank you for joining the channel!
Hello, after two years of using it, do you still recommend it?
@@_H1h1 I actually had to cancel the order for financial reasons at the time and haven’t made the purchase, sorry
it's been almost a year since i got my a6400 and I still remember it was a day before I saw your video before getting the camera. Today, this video came in my recommendation and such a deja vu it is. So glad to find this out, Subbed 🙌🏼❤️
Glad you got and like the a6400. Thanks for being part of the channel!
I love these videos man. Even after a year later it still offers so much clarity and significance! Keep doing it. We appreciate it :D
i just bought it and it is my first camera i am getting!
i am so ready to start hiking taking pics with my friends and trolling around with some videos :)
thanks for making a specific settings videos i think for newbys like me this stuff is so hard
to self taught so i am greatful for your work !
First, let me just say this is the BEST review on this camera on RUclips. period. I'm sold.
Question: I need to use for streaming and doing interviews. can i buy an adaptor that will allow me to plug into a wall? (not big on batteries)
Oh wow, thank you so much. I'm glad you liked the review. Look for something like this: bhpho.to/2lxAqaE I hope this helps.
Thank you for the support!
No one I know does review like you do man! Your reviews are super detailed! This is my best review channel now!
Oh wow... thank you so much 🙏 I super appreciate the kind words and support.
what I love is u reply to each and every question in the comments.... love u bro... may god bless u
Thank you so much for the kind words and support 🙏 I do my best to reply whenever I can - super grateful for my community!
So nice how you reply to every comments. Watching this a year after and will be buying Sony a6400 🥳 Thanks for this guide!
The best A6400 video I have seen on youtube! Subbed and liked! and I am going to buy the A6400 camera because of your hard work. Sony should look after you! Thanks
Oh wow, thank you so much. I’m glad it was helpful and appreciate your kinds words and support 🙏🏻
The 6400 make me want to sell my D5300. Awesome and highly informative video bro!
Thanks Jeff! Appreciate you taking the time to watch this video (it got long on me). Sony packed a ton into this little guy for sure.
Man, exact situation, thinking about buyin used 6000 for 220 $, just for trying out system.
I sold my Canon80D and bought the a6400. Not one regret.
Been there, done that.
Literally same, owner of a D5200.
It's a great upgrade.
I am so impressed with the amount of research and information you put into this video. All of the little details that other reviewers may have missed are here. Thank you!
I'm so grateful that you took the time to watch and to share this great feedback 🙏
Thank you for being part of the channel.
@@TechGearTalk I wasn't expecting you to reply 😭🙏 you are the real MVP here for replying to every comment
I appreciate this amazing community
I bought my A6400 camera a few months ago.... and man, do I love it. Got a cheap manual lens for it, and it's been wild. This camera is Nuts.
Hey! We're looking to upgrade our current vlogging DSLR (Nikon D5300) to a better mirrorless, is there anything else at this price point or maybe a little more expensive that you could recommend for us? Thanks in advance 🥰
Hi there you two.
I think the a6400 is a fantastic value. If you want a touch screen, then the M6II.
The a6400 is super impressive and has great slow motion and no record time limit. Here is a comparison of the two: ruclips.net/video/0UKL-Frb_fM/видео.html I hope that helps. You can DM me on IG if you have any follow up questions.
@@TechGearTalk thanks for the fast response! I'll contact you on IG and hopefully you can help us decide 😅
You're welcome. I'll keep an eye out.
Best Sony for the money. Impossible to go wrong with this purchase. Keep up the good work
I agree that it’s a great value. Thanks for the feedback and support.
Also there are extremely powerful image upscaling tools out there that could easily allow you to increase the resolution of the images taken from the camera if you need to print out something extremely large like a large bill board for example! Also the extremely detailed photos also contain enough data to make the upscaled images look extremely sharp without any noticeable defects! :)
True
Spent the last 1 month losing my mind over what to buy, from go pro, dji pocket to watching thousands of videos about the m50, Panasonic and then the Sony a6000, 6 1000 and 6400 almost bought the A6100 because i couldn't afford the a6400 but just got this deal for a6400 for 700 with the kitlens and I've gotta say i watched 10 different videos from your chanel prior to this and this was so incredibly informative and awkwardly so relaxing to watch 😭💀 i didn't realise i watched a 33 minute video, god bless, i love your content and the videos, absolutely amazing.
definitely watching the tutorials regarding A64 after i get my camera tomorrow 🙏
Would be very broke for a few months but satisfied regardless.
It's a little odd that Ross Geller is making this tutorial. Great tutorial by the way!
I like how you cater to people on all budgets. Subscribed
So glad the videos and approach are useful Eric. Welcome!
Great video; ton of information. Thanks for putting in the work!
Thanks so much for the feedback, glad it was helpful.
I can't believe i viewed the whole 33 mins of this video.. awesome review. Appreciated. Thankyou
Like many others, I loved this review so much I went directly out and bought it. Thank you so much for the in depth review. Plan on watching your settings suggestion now that I have it in front of me.
CONGRATS on the new camera!!! So glad the video was helpful and appreciate you being part of the channel!
Thank you for this excellent review! I am looking for something not too complicated and easy to carry around. I bought a full DSLR years ago, which is way too heavy for me to lug around. After a series of point and shoot cameras I figured I really need to compromise and get something a bit heavier for more options. My current camera is a Canon G9X - which fits into my pocket but is just too limited for my purposes. I have to spend way too much time in photoshop in order to get the photos I like. Plus. My iPhone takes better photos than my camera. It looks like the Sony A 6400 might be the one for me!
same here, my first camera is a dslr but i just do photo for myself when i travel, id like something smaller and this looks perfect to my needs.
still have my W300 and not one regret :)
photo quality is good and it is subjective.
I totally get that (plus it’s waterproof 😉)
if i dont even have to buy someting but i watch all your videos.....because of such great and Honest reviews. Thanks Alot Love from Pakistan .
Another great video, way hit it out of the park! Love this camera and is easily becoming one of my favorite cameras out.
Thanks Chad! Tried to make it shorter... failed. This is such a good camera - I’m so impressed.
Excellent video!!! Thank you for this overview of the a6400, i look forward to seeing more of your coverage about this camera.
Thanks so much for watching!!! I've got more coming for sure!
Hard work pays off , here is one more subscriber
Glad the video was useful. Appreciate the support!
Thank you for your detailed video on a6400. Last Sunday visited the SONY showroom for sony a6100, which was not in stock, the salesman showed this one for around $1150. After watching your video I will go for this. Once again thanks a lot.
Awesome video. Your presentation skills are damn good. I ordered the a6400 with the 18x135mm lens earlier today from B&H. I subscribed to your channel and will be watching your tutorial videos starting later this week once my camera arrives.
Thank you Michael. Congrats on the new camera and welcome to the community! What will you use it for mostly?
I watched lots of reviews on Sony a6400 because I’m planning to buy this camera. This review is probably the best on RUclips.
So glad you enjoyed it Roee. Thanks for being part of the channel!
Just subscribed to this youtube channel! I love the review. Direct to the point and very helpful. Keep it up.
I'm so glad the video was helpful Randy! Appreciate the support!
I have shot over 10,000 images so far. Yeah I practically sleep with my cameras. I enjoy using it. For what I need, excellent. This review sold me on making the purchase.
Thanks alot.I've subscribed, you have mentioned everything I wanted to know.
Super glad you found it helpful - thanks for the support!
Hi! Thank you for your great and fair reviews. I wanted to let you know this helped inform my decision to go with the A6400. I have lots to get used to, coming from a Canon, but I love it so far!
Just bought this yesterday and the 16 mm f/1.4 lens by Sigma, haven't even used it yet, going to watch all these videos first..😜
Sweet pickup - CONGRATS!!!
@@TechGearTalk Thanks. I'll definitely be checking out the rest of your videos on the a6400 😁👍🏻
You bet. Here is also an a7iii video about setup that you can apply to the a6400: ruclips.net/video/K_iz3d9Qth8/видео.html
I've watched a few videos on this camera... yours by far had the most useful information. Thank you!
This review is really great! So many useful informations. Thanks!
I’m so glad it was useful! Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback 🙏🏻
Great video! Please tell me A6400 or M6 Mark ii for vlogging? Thankyou
I was actually surprised about the performance of the Sony A6400. I use it beside my Sony A9 on the Sony 100-400mm 4.5-5.6 for some Wildlife in case I need the extra reach. It is better IMO than using a Teleconverter. So far so good, the IQ is good enough in this case. And the Autofocus is super good. Well done, Sony.
I completely agree with you. The images are fantastic, and I prefer the APS-C sensor to a teleconverter as well for extra reach.
I was not expecting to like it this much because of the price, but I think it's an absurd value.
This is the best review of this camera Ive seen. Most dont even mention the app. Thank you so much
I'm super glad it was helpful! Thank you for the kind words and for joining the community 🙏
I would love to see a tutorial on creating a time lapse! Loved this video super informative!
I’m working on one so hopefully I’ll have it done soon. So many videos so little time. Thank you for the kind feedback 🙏🏻
My budget is around $1500 for everything. I’m thinking about getting the a6400 or the a6600. I was just wondering if it’s worth getting over the 6400? Or with my budget is the a6400 better for me? With the a6400 I can spend more on lenses, and other accessories for it. A6600 I feel like I can only probably get one good lens and that’s it. But if the a6600 is much better and worth the extra money I’d pad more for it.
Hi !I have a Sony a6400 with a Sony 16-50mm lense and a sigma 16mm fixed lense . They are both in great condition literally like new they looks fresh out the box I also have the accessories and the boxes they came in . I can sell you the body for 750 ! Lmk if you’d also be interested in the lenses. I can send you videos as well. Lmk!
I think this video sold me on getting this over the Cannon M50!
Glad it was helpful. Here is my comparison video if you’re interested ruclips.net/video/68CCV_WDIkk/видео.html
Thanks for this. This video was actually understandable! I love your speaking pace. I have watched other videos that make me dizzy!
14:15 - another question... if AF tracking doesn't work at 120fps on the a6400, does it work on the A7iii? Thanks
No, af tracking does not work on the a7iii either. I'll let you know about the clear image zoom tomorrow.
Thanks for the info i am looking to get another camera.
You're very welcome - hope it was helpful.
Before I bought my 6400 I agonized over the lack of IBIS. However when I grab a camera it's always the 6400 over the 6500. I've had zero problems with the lack of IBIS even though 3 of my six lenses are not stabilized.
The focus system, especially the EyeAf and tracking are so good.
I'm right there with you John. It's not something I've ever really had (with the exception of briefly using the a6500 and now using the a7iii) and it's not something I rely on.
The ibis definitely made me second guess my purchase but the camera is solid
This video is crazily good! So much time and efforts been put. Watching this all the way till the end of 33mins. Thanks dude!
So glad it was helpful. Thank you for the kind words!
Didn’t know Ross has become camera vloger after friends
I started when Rachel and I were on a break. Just getting back to it 😉

😂😂😂 i knew it wasnt just me who saw that
Great video. I have this camera and am happy with it. With a Tamron 17-70 attached, it gets incredibly sharp pictures.
I wish I could afford this camera or the canon m50, it would really improve my youtube video quality.
I loved this video and I have subscribed already.
I'm glad you loved the video and thank you for being pat of the community!
Really loved your video with me sitting on the fence to decide on A6400. Your bloopers show that you are a perfectionist which also helps with you creating quality images and videos. Thanks
I'm glad the video was helpful! Let me know if you have any questions!
@@TechGearTalk What good low light lens with Sony A6400 - Sony 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS OR Sony 50mm f/1.8 OSS E Mount Lens
I am planning on buying the Sony 6400 for astrophotography. Do you think it would do good?
Yes, it will work well with a fast, wide angle lens.
Yes, I understand that the Sony a6400 SERIES cameras are better than Micro Four Thirds. I did some milky way panos with a Micro Four Thirds, and the Sony is suppose to be better for Image Quality (so they say). Thus, this new exciting camera should be the ideal camera for astro if you have the right techniques. With the right prime lens any low light situation for video or milky way is very possible.
I suggest you buy a real Astro camera with a sensor cooling technology like ASI 1600 MC. In summertime to be able to cool -45C the camera sensor is a big benefit and much less noise on your astrophotos.
This is definitely my favorite a6400 video. It is so much clear right now why I'm willing to buy this one. Thanks!!!
You’re very welcome Adriano. Super glad the video was helpful. Thanks for joining the community.
which Kit lens is better 16-50mm? or the 18-135mm kit lens?? going to use it for photography and unboxing videos
Both are 3.5 to 5.6, so I would get the 18-135, it's bigger but it's a lot more versatile.
Depends on if you value the extra 2mm of width or the extra 85mm of telephoto.
I agree with @nathan Carrille that the 18-135mm is more versatile - but it depends on whether you’ll actually use that focal length. What will you photograph?
In places like mountains you will cry for 16mm (or even more) So having the 16-50, I mean a good one!!! is IMHO essential. It can be bought on eBay for very cheap. But you have to be lucky to get a good sharp one...
I tend to value wide angle more than zoom as well, but that all depends on what you shoot.
Awesome review! I am thinking of picking up the a6400 along with the 18-105 f4 as my first camera setup. I feel like this will give me the opportunity to grow as it is pretty versatile and includes great quality.
Shame you never mentioned the wonderful Sigma DC NG lenses.
I’ll do a whole lens video
I love the color and features of this camera! I’m really looking into leveling up my camera game for restaurant food vlogging/ food review and cooking ... is this a camera you would recommend or is there another one you think might be better?
This is a great camera for sure. Here are a few others: ruclips.net/video/nVLe9FPUV7s/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/Nir8pfvfdFI/видео.html let me know what you think.
Ok, so I’ve been searching for this info literally everywhere and I’m glad that you mentioned it - you said that the a6400 can be powered while in use? Does that mean that I can use a micro-USB cable to power the camera while recording? I just ordered an a6400 along with a DC coupler because I was hard pressed when it came to finding this info, but I just want to ensure that I can film for an unlimited time on the camera without a DC coupler and using a micro-USB cable? Thanks so much for the video, and apologies for the questions :)
Hi. Yes, I was able to record using the micro-usb cable. Again, it powered the camera but did not seem to charge the battery if I was recording. Hope that helps.
Yes the 6400 can be powered during use with a micro-USB cable.
Yup
So if I am understanding this right. I do not need a dummy battery, I can just plug in with micro cable. Will this over heat the camera? Just ordered camera and a dummy battery, but if I don't need it will reurn it.
Incredible work! I'm really impressed with the level of detail and amount of information you provide in this review. Subscribed!
Wow very nice camera and another awesome tutorial two thumbs up
Thanks for the 👍👍
I had a lot of fun shooting with this camera. Hopefully it showed.
Thank you for this in-depth review of the A6400. It has helped me make a decision about my next purchase which is going to be this very product. Thumbs up!
Great. I just made my decision. Thank you.
CONGRATS!!! Glad the video was helpful! What will you use it for?
@@TechGearTalk Just picked it up yesterday. Mostly to wake up my creativity again. I want to use it both for stills and for video, in my city and also while travelling. At the moment I am a little bit overwhelmed with the video settings, but I think that takes some time :-)
makes sense. As far as settings, do you mean the basics? I have a few videos that I think might help. This one is about another camera but will give you the basics for getting a cinematic look: ruclips.net/video/RDs-Zzb0pmE/видео.html and here is what I did with the a7iii: ruclips.net/video/K_iz3d9Qth8/видео.html let me know if you have any questions
Great content creation brother. I'm close to pulling the trigger on the a6400. Is the a6600 worth the added expense? I'm a video content creator first and foremost
Thanks again! It's worth it if you'll do a lot of handheld content, or you want real time eye tracking for video. For most people, I would say save the $ and get the a6400. Hope this is helpful and thanks for supporting the channel!
@@TechGearTalk Very helpful. Preciate it
👊🏻
Just stumbled on your channel. Excellent review and your production values are too notch. I really like your images as well. I'm a blue hour shooter as well. I'm a Canon 6D shooter looking for better AF and tracking. Subscribed. 👍
Appreciate you watching and taking the time to leave feedback 🙏🏻
I really enjoyed shooting with the a6400. I prefer the Canon menu system, but that’s just a matter of learning curve. I was impressed by this camera. Thanks for the support!
Thank you for this review. Always such quality work here. Would definitely love to see videos about sony a6100/a6400/a6600 settings for autofocus and night photography tutorial
First review I’ve seen that mentions there’s no included battery charger thanks for letting us know!
But it does include a micro-usb connector and you can just plug it into any phone chargers lying around in your house to charge.
This actually makes sense because you only have 1 battery out of the box and there's no point in removing it from the camera to charge when you can just charge it directly via usb.
You would only need to remove your battery to charge when you have multiple batteries, hence also the reason why the battery charging docks sold in the market normally have 2 slots and not 1. You'd rarely find third-party battery chargers with only 1 slot.
12:07 my camera has other settings. In HD instead of 30 fps and 60 mine has 25 and 50. Can you help me ?
the menu itself isn't bad or confusing, the lack of touchscreen function in menu makes it a bit tedious
A touchscreen would definitely be helpful.
Tech Gear Talk I agree with the video - nothing is logically laid out. Settings should flow. If you’re setting a camera up for video it should start with format and data rate. It should flow to picture profile. Then focus settings - manual or auto or some combination of auto. Steadyshot or not? Then exposure. ISO, shutter and aperture. Then white balance (you want to be properly exposed for white balance). Finally audio levels. Whether you format the media card needs to be separate so you don’t go into autopilot and format the wrong card but it shouldn’t be buried on page 3 of the suitcase menu. I haven’t used the A73 much for stills. The review is correct in that once you have the camera set up it’s less of a problem - although I still find annoying things. Like turn on proxy recording in 4K and you lose focus peaking and zebras. Super annoying. Not because it’s a processor limitation (which it is) but because nothing tells you what’s wrong. You have to discover that for yourself. I think BMD has the best menu system.
Appreciate the input @MondoTV - I've had a lot of similar thoughts.
outstanding review!
Thank you very much! Hope it was helpful.
I bought this a few weeks ago just because of the pre-order of the new FE 200-600 OSS....>,^
That lens is 🔥🔥🔥
I bought the a6400! Loving it so far...
Came from a Nikon D7000.
That's awesome to hear Raymond! CONGRATS!!! What do you use it for?
@@TechGearTalk mostly for taking photos, but want to start using it for video (that's why I bought it 😁)
Such a good camera
This video was exactly what I was looking for! I purchased the Canon M50 over the SL3 based on another video. I was thinking about returning/swapping it for this a6400 model, but based on this, I’ll stay put. The only reason for the hesitation was low light. It’s something I really want, for sure. Trying to make sense of features and take a decent photo has been intimidating, to say the least! Haha The trade off for ease of use(being a newb), I’m probably better off staying course with the M50. I GREATLY appreciate the info! Keep it up!
Hi Bryan, I think you're making a good move. Focus on getting better lenses for low light performance and then mastering exposure. Watch this: ruclips.net/video/q2hs8BOTXb4/видео.html Thanks for being part of the channel!
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH FOR DOING A LENS SEGMENT!!! I really think the 16-50mm kit lens will be enough, and with how pricey the camera is itself. I just turned 12 anyway so I'm just a beginner.
great review . i have the lumix g85 and mostly do photography , thinking of upgrading to sony a6400.
Hi !I have a Sony a6400 with a Sony 16-50mm lense and a sigma 16mm fixed lense . They are both in great condition literally like new they looks fresh out the box I also have the accessories and the boxes they came in . I can sell you the body for 750 ! Lmk if you’d also be interested in the lenses. I can send you videos as well. Lmk!
Thank You . But I already purchased a Used A6600 with 18-135 lens for $1350 . Great Camera.
Outstanding review! I used your link to buy the camera, that's how impressed I am!
I rarely comment on videos, but I have to say your review is really good, informative,educational and thorough. I've never owned a camera before and I'm strongly considering this as a start as I also want to take videos as well as photos.
Appreciate you taking the time to watch and to leave feedback 🙏
I think this camera is a fantastic option for photography and video. Here is another option at the same price: ruclips.net/video/nVLe9FPUV7s/видео.html

Just the info I was looking for. Very concise informative video. Really helps with purchase decision.
I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and for the kind words. Thank you for joining the community 🙏
After seeing this even 3 years later I'm getting really excited to buy this camera.. But sadly it's temporally sold out everywhere..
After, watching your video I ordered one as well really helpful video.. thank you 😊
Is it a besr choice for product photography. Or should i consider other options.
Thank you 🙏🏻 I am planning to buy second hand camera your review really help me to make a decision
I’m considering an upgrade from my a6000 to the a6400. Not a video user so much, but appreciate your detailed exam and evaluation of its capabilities. And, by the way, the David Schwimmer thing: you also bear an uncanny resemblance to one of two brothers who produce tv commercials for their Cleveland furniture chain. You sound like him, too. Scary.
I bought this camera with the 18-135mm kit and bought 50mm lens! I’m a begginer and Made my first video with it! 50mm is amazing!
Congratulations! That's awesome to hear!
I really like your relaxed way of reviewing. Thanks and cheers from Holland.

Check out the Sigma 18-35 in the description. It's my favorite lens right now.
Tech Gear Talk great I’ll check sir thank you
You're very welcome. Good luck and let me know if you have any other questions.
Great video, loved it. I'd suggest that you add timestamps so it's easier to navigate between the sections in the video. Thanks, you sold it to me!!
Glad it was helpful Jonathan and appreciate the feedback. I now do it in my videos but it may be a good idea to go back and add it to the older ones. Appreciate you being part of the community and for supporting the channel!
I’m really looking into this as a beginner I do mostly my kids sports and video and photography and family trips.

what lenses did you use for shooting every picture and video you presented in this video for this camera?
Bought and loving this in 2021 🥳🥳🥳
You truly deserve more subscribers and views. Quality content.
I appreciate the kind words and support. As long as I earned yours, that's enough.
Ayy a fellow Clevelander! Love the channel, I'm currently figuring out what camera is going to replace my old T6i. Keep up the great work!
What's up! Always happy to see another CLE creator! I love my a6400 - it's definitely a good option. Let me know if you have any questions.
I am also upgrading from my Canon T6i! What did you decided for? I am between the a6400 and the Fuji XT30 but I’m afraid I will drop it in the water because it’s so compact!
@@cecem.9921 I actually went for the GH5 because sensor size was my smallest concern. The dual stabilization, V-Log, variable frame rate, and compact lens system made it great for travel / nature cinematography. You won't regret choosing either the XT-30 or A6400 though. I've tried out both and they're great
