@@skay822 I did...something to do with autofocus improvement! I like it because I loaded several apps like stopmotion, timelapse etc and they are cool to use for some projects...I will keep it for sure but if Sony releases a new camera that has everything the a6400 has but ADDS a headphone jack and IBIS then I will buy it for sure...for now I'm fine!
Spot on! Flip screen is best for my street shooting. Used a Nikon D5500 with flip out super touch screen, great camera, frustrating screen not angling straight up... Cheers!
For my a6000 I use a free app for Android called “Timelapse - Sony Camera”, from Thibaud Michel. Tricky to sync, not perfect, but certainly worth using. By the way, as always, great video, nice explanation. And because of your videos I bought my a6000, lens adaptor for Canon lenses, a Youngnuo 50mm 1.8 and a Meike 35 mm 1.7. You better stop those reviews, dollar in Brazil is 1:4 and my self control is terrible. Cheers.
Awesome work dude! Need to get my hands on one of those as well. It seems like such an awesome step up for the a6k series. Just icing on the cake really!
At 7:41 I am absolutely with you, I like tilt back and flip up screens a lot more than left-side protruding screens. I used to have a Canon EOS R and a Panasonic FZ2000 and definitely I prefer tilt back screens both for photo and video.
Same here, flip out sideways is cumbersome and awkward to deploy and you lose the benefit of flip up compactness when street shooting. This Sony screen is by far the best compromise for vloggers and still shooters.
I like the flip up screen. I think it's very useful especially for family selfies. You might not need anyone to take your picture for you. :) And I agree with the other person too that flip out is a bit awkward and weird. Imagine you vlog and your eyes keep going toward that way.
Thank you so much! I am a new beginner. I purchased this camera before I saw your video and it made me glad I purchased it. Dont know what Im doing but Im sure I will figure it out. This video Helped.
Shawnette M. Davis, idk for sure but I’m going to assume the IO will be the same but if not, it should be similar to the a6500. If you search up “Sony A6500 Overview Tutorial” from tony and Chelsea, he gives a really good run down of how to use the camera.
I just bought the a6400 tonight. Can't wait for it to be delivered. I was a bit concerned about the missing IBIS, but I thought the same way about it that I'd rather have a newer camera and invest in a gimbal than getting the a6500 missing out on a lot of the awesome features of the a6400 which you mentioned. Best of all, I really got an amazing deal, pretty much getting the camera for half of the retail price with two lenses included and I will hopefully also get a cashback for it, so in the end, it will come down to around 496 USD. This will be my first mirrorless, changing from an a58 which did me good services over the years being my first DSLR, but now the time has come for mirrorless and I am really excited about it.
I have watched almost every video about this camera since day 1 so I know most if not everything about this camera. But of course I will still watch to support your channel.
I used to work at one of the top camera rental shops in NYC... for 14+ years, I could shoot with virtually any camera system. I was forced into early retirement due to a disability, and the only camera I personally owned was the A6000 with the kit lens. And a bunch of GoPros (but they don't count :-))... YIKES!!! I was waiting for the refresh of the A6500, but my sister enlisted me as the main, albeit somewhat slow, photographer for my nephew's wedding in mid-April. I just ordered the A6400 along with two of the 3 Sigma lenses (I bought them from FotoCare... I will use your link for gear in the future; I like supporting 'brick & mortar' shops for most things, but I know you have bills to pay). Thank you for such a great review: I started shooting with a Canon F1N in the mid-80s, pre-IS... in fact, PRE-AF! Shot Woodstock '99 for Canon & Kodak using a DCS-560, when reading histograms was a prerequisite. The young whippersnappers of today... IBIS... sounds like a type of bird... why, when I was your age... :-). Thank you again for all you do for us... and best to you and your beautiful family!!!!
Sony may just release a new A6700 8 months after the A6400 to include IBIS, just like the A6300 and A6500. For people who want the A6400, you may need to be aware of that!! I was the one of the guy who bought the A6300 just few days before the A6500 announcement.....
He didn't say it did. You read it wrong. That said, there is always a new device being released. You should get buyers remorse because something better is released tomorrow
The a6300 is still a beast, the a6400 is not much of an update mate. A real update would be A7III. If you want a proper midrange camera, there is Panasonic g80 upgrade the g90 being released in April.
I'm trying to be as patient as possible and wait until Q4 comes and goes before making my mirrorless purchase ... I need a lighter/compact pal for the a7iii.
I picked the a6500 as the upgrade for my a6000. The selling point was IBIS. Thing is, I don't vlog, and I don't often even shoot video. Stills almost all the way, and sometimes with manual lenses that I could not previously hand-hold without a firm elbow rest. I can drool over the new eye-auto-focus and the my-menu --- but I still went for IBIS And... I did not wait for everything to come in a new a6700/a7000/aWhatever simply because the a6500 has now become affordable to me: that new wonder model will not be.
Same as a stills shooter, found an affordable used a6500 body under warranty. The ability to use 3rd party lenses in low light handheld at extremely low shutter speeds >> 6400's features which are vlogger focused. To each their own.
I did not yet see the entire video but a reason you DID NOT MENTION and most reviews do not mention but is very important to me is the fill-in flash. I have always loved them on cameras for when I need just that little bit of extra light and do not want to take the time looking for and setting up a flash. I love them but others do not seem to, because it is almost NEVER mentioned in reviews.
I had my a6000 for about 5 years. Served me well however I did notice a few overheating issues where the video would literally cut, stop recording and camera completely shutting off. I've done things to go around it like opening the battery lid compartment and pulling out the LCD screen to cool it down, but those are the perks of buying cameras nowadays packed with so much technology in such a compact form factor. It's finally died on me with a crack in the viewfinder, and after changing the settings back to my viewfinder (which I previously turned off) to test it, the LCD is no longer working and there's no way going back to the settings to turn it back on. I'm hoping the a6400 would give me a better experience, because the a6000 was a joy to use and lens selections is far ahead against competitors. It'd also be a hassle to re-sell my Sony lenses only to buy more for a totally new camera system other than Sony. For me, it wasn't a hard choice.
Im with you on the flip UP screen .. I hated the flip out to the side screen on my old canon dslr... I think the flip up screen works so much better if you want to use it or not..
Well in Hong Kong, I find both are selling for around the same at less than $850, but the a6500 being an older model the depreciation rate would be much lower than the a6400. Plus I only use the non-stabilized sigma lenses. Color science could be corrected in post. I don’t do much sport so autofocus is not as important. I think I will upgrade to a6500 from my current a6000.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽. I've just bought an as new A6400, I paid top dollar for it, but it hasn’t been used by the seller and it comes with a couple of extra accessories. I was worried I had paid too much for the camera as there are used A6500's available at a lower price, but with your review, I'm confident that I was better going for the A6400. My daughter hasn’t used a camera much before. She takes pictures with her phone, but is studying to be a makeup artist and needs a camera to take good photos for her portfolio. I hope she is able to use the A6400 effectively. Her phone pics are amazing!
@@alecfenn5040 If I didn't need the MIC Jack, I might have waited longer. For the price it's nice, The auto focus is amazing. Yes i'm happy with the upgrade and thing it was worth it but the A6000 was amazing for the price.
Hi, one thing could be interesting to test in a futur video would be to compare a6500 /a6400 in low light condition in regard to focus quality. One with a better AF (6400) against the A6500 equiped with IBIS.
Sony should come out with an external stereo video/vlogging mic for the A6400 that plugs into the hot-shoe but doesn't block the lens. The cage options for the A6400 are awesome. I've heard that you can use the USB C port as a headphone jack, but you've got sound level indicators on the screen, so you can see if the camera is recording sound and at what level it is recording. Overall, great camera and great review! Might have to upgrade my A6300.
Great review! Up to now, most reviewers have been crybabies that this camera isn't an A6700/A7000, but it's actually a genius move by Sony to get newbies into their APS-C platform, or even get A6000 owners like me with shallow pockets to think about stepping up. Honestly, when the price of a camera goes north of $1000, I start looking at the A7iii. I had no interest in moving from my excellent A6000 to the 6300/6500. They didn't offer enough to think about spending that kind of money. But the AF system and price of the 6400 has me looking at my budget. I don't do video much at all, and I've never noticed a problem with shake in my photos, so IBIS isn't a necessity. What really got me was the Eye/Face/Object AF and performance upgrade you noticed using the Sigma 30. I've moved my rig to the A6000 and the 3 Sigma APS-C lenses (16, 30 and 56), and the 6400 is the first body that I'd consider buying now if I'm staying in APS-C. Thanks for another EXCELLENT review!
Bro, really love your channel..been using a6000 for 2 years now n watched your video ever since.. bought 2 lenses based on your video review..and now looking forward to upgrade to a6400.. Thanks bro
Just brought 6400 love it and I'm an ex A7 mk111 owner. I changed to micro 4/3 for a while but back with sony and this camera . It's excellent as is the review well done
You missed a very important upgrade in my opinion, i.e. the death of Center Lock-on AF and the introduction of Touch and Track AF for video. Can you please test it's reliability and stickiness vs just letting the camera decide area of interest? Thanks.
I have an a7R II and that is why I upgraded from 6000 to the 6500 last year. The 6000 is the real bargain, but when the light isn't on your side, the answer is IBIS. In the mean time I also bought a Lumix G9. When Sony bring out a 6600 with IBIS plus High Resolution and a nice bright big EVF as already available on the LUMIX G9 and coming soon on the A7R IV, I'll be at the front of the queue. After using a G9, it is clear that Sony are miles behind in terms of good EVF.
your A6XXX convinced me to move to this system. THIS VIDEO convince me to go with the A6400. Thanks for doing all the research legwork. Will be ordering the a6400 in a couple of weeks.
Thanks for the info. I really like the 6400, many of these features are overkill for a newbie but it does focus super fast and I've found the flip up screen usable... I saw the a7 IV come out but come on... $3500? I'm good with this a6400.
Regarding the mic and display issue, many don’t know that some mic manufactures (such as Audio Technica) produce compact mics that pretty much just stick out of the 3.5 jack and can be turned in different directions. That may not be ideal when you need stereo sound, but for most people doing mono audio, that’s a super nice solution that doesn’t require getting any extra parts because no hot shoe/cold shoe mounting is needed.
@@GuitarMastr3000LP gotta agree with this. a6000 is better if you're not frequently (or professionally) shooting video. a6300 is a deal especially if you can find it second hand and without lenses
You're hitting on someone's wife...to their face...as he shows pictures of her with their new baby. Either that was an f'ed up effort at flattery or you're just plain creepy. Neither's good.
In all honestly I've found the ibis on APSC is a bit of a gimmick, it helps a tad but people expect it to be that super stable level of ibis found in the full frames but its not the case, the travel is a significant amount smaller. If you want proper ibis pick up a Sony a7/a9 range.
Another great review. Thanks. I did just buy an a6500 and still happy with my choice. I assume I can correct colors in Lightroom, which was the major thing I cared about. I also wanted IBIS because I shoot handheld a lot and I have several Sigma lenses with EF mount from my Canon cameras. And I do shoot sports a lot (well, circus shows mostly, which is kind of like sports), so having larger buffer is nice. But it is great to know all the benefits of a6400. If Sony comes up with the a6600 that includes IBIS, might be worth an upgrade.
so far probably best review of these cameras thus far on RUclips.... coz nobody else is talking about the limit problem... use to really bug me on A5100 was a big shocker... But yeah thanks for the awesome tip following this video i'm setting my sights on A6400 over A6500 considering the IBIS improvement is rather marginal
Exactly the information I was looking for and needed. Your videos are very good, maybe the best concerning the camera info I seek. Very clearly explained. Thank You very much!!!
Great video. Thank you for the information and informed perspective; it was very useful for someone starting out and trying to make a camera starting decision.
Hi I’m from Thailand. Your videos are very useful for me right now. I am considering to buy 6400. At this moment I get the answer. Subscribed! Looking forward to watching more.
I hope you like it! I've been using mine for a few months now and I couldn't be happier with it. A lot of people have complained about it, but it has so many great features that makes the camera just a joy to use!
@@mud_rocker been a busy weekend so haven't been able to go out and shoot but having a little play around the house and yeah its great. just can't wait to get out and do some shooting.
I might upgrade my A6300 to A6400 in some near future, very interesting comparison review! one of the biggest small disappointments to me was lack of SD UHSII slot.... quite a bummer. Instead, they keep obsolete Memory Stick for some reason. I can't understand that. There is virtually no cost to adding UHSII support, except for marketing/product positioning reasons.
Great video man! Was contemplating the Sony 35mm lens and the 18-105 to have a good range for the A6400 I am going to order. I am going to be doing a lot of video, vlogging and photography. Should I do a Sigma 30mm instead? Was only doing the Sony lens because of the OSS. It’s not that big a deal though?
Great job on the video, I'm shooting short videos and more interested in low light so it's actually a toss up between used A7 original model with small body as a second camera vs A6400. This is really nice to know they did such a good job on the 6400 though. I second the flip up screen, it makes people's eyes open up just a bit wider and brighter.
I am a wedding shooter..with no extra budget...I have the a6500 with..samyang 12 mm wide on steaycam,sony 35 mm f1.8,sony 18-105, and believe me it's everything you need to film a wedding...and after the 2019 software update for sony a6500 the stabilisation increased so much...for weddings I will not change my camera...I love you men for your review sony a6400..you are the best...Sory for my english
Wow I'm so glad I came across this I was just about to buy the a6500! Though the a6400 has no IBIS , I think all the other features are so worth it. Especially since it doesn't have the overheating issue when shooting video.
I'm upgrading my Sony 6000 and have been soooo confused. I'm glad I watched this video. I'll be buying the 6400. Not too worried about the stabilization because all my lenses have that. Thanks.
@Bikechanic Got the sigma 56 1.4, and I am in love. Use it for professional gigs. Can't imagine an a73 being clearer. It rides with me in my backpack 24/7, and I have had 0 issues even with the motion/banging around. Probably 5k pictures taken. I don't do a lot of video, but the lack of stabilization has been no issue for pictures. the sigma 56 is insane sharp. The only downside is that if you want to use silent shutter inside, it's literally not usable. But if that's not an issue, then stop messing around and get it :)
Excellent videos. I had ordered an a5100. After I saw your a6100 vid, I cancelled the order and ordered one w/kit lens. Then I saw your a6400 videos; cancelled the a6100 and ordered an a6400 with severe buyer's remorse. Until I saw your other 6400 videos. Now; I will NOT cancel and am waiting for my new a6400 w/50-135, and plan to get a Sigma 30mm. Yippie! My first good camera was a Canon AE1 Program. My last really great camera was a Canon F1 which I dumped for $100.How about reviewing streaming hardware w/s6400; HDMI to USB vs HDMI to h264/H265. Lastly, the Sony camera has WiFi. It records using h264 (old should upgrade to h265). So why cannot they make it send h264 or h265 over the USB or WiFI? Thanks for the reviews!
Was wondering about your opinion. I just purchased the A6400 and A6500 - like to have a lightweight setup for travel. Lenses: Sony 10-18mm f4, OSS; Sigma 16mm f.14; Tamron 28-75mm f2.8. My original thought was to use the A6400 for video and the A6500 for photos. I am thinking about returning the A6500 after watching this video, getting another A6400 + Sony 35mm f.18 OSS (or the Sigma 30mm). What do you think?
Think the biggest discussion for Sony APS-C enthusiasts right now is whether to upgrade to FF or not. Both A7 and A7ii are selling for less than a thousand dollars with some small and affordable lenses available such as the 28 F2 and 50 F1.8, for example
Thank You! I was trying to figure out which one to get and saw lots of comparisons that made it sound like this is a close decision around picture quality judgements. These are indeed the reasons I will get the A6400. The biggest reason is the AF. I was blown away by the A9 but not ready to go that big. Getting an A7/A9 lite is perfect for me.
The Sony website shows specs for the a6500, a9, and a6400. They all indicate that these three cameras use the BionZ X processor. Sony may very well have updated the algorithms in the A9 and a6400 though.
At 15:54 the constant display of the actual ISO value in Auto ISO is awesome. This lack of this was a terribly frustrating in Panasonic cameras. Evan the mighty GH5 cannot display actual ISO.
Hey Dear, first if all I’d like to say that you and your wife and your beloved baby has been awesome to watch. Thanks for sharing your valuable reviews. One of the best. 👌🏼 I bought A6400 last weekend and i have been trying everything according to manual. I am hugely stressed about the Auto Focus! I am a professional and have been over 20+ years, Canon user and medium and large format photography. I like using manual focus most of the time but Sony (I thought) has something spectacular with this camera. Eye Focusing, Tracking etc. Well, lets say it this way, as much i’d like to think it is me but out of 100+ photos, i can only find a bunch of photos are in focus. I have the 16-50mm kit lens came with it. Now the question is, is it the lens? But in manual focus and recording videos are fine. It is actually fairly sharp and nice lens. Fits well with a compact camera. Should i try another lens? Or upgrade this to A7 mkIII? Or change the camera? I want to use it mostly for videos with my Gimbal, yes the videos are fine but a lot to pay just for a video! I’d love to hear your suggestions please. Thanks a million. 🙏🏼
Superb video! Please keep creating great content! Specially AWB lock was new to me, even after watching dozens of a6400 videos... Fully agree with the pros. Could you address following topics in your next video : 1. Eyeaf using the sigma 30mm 1.4 lense. Missing the IBIS when using the sigma indoors? 2. How good is the smartphone pairing with the new imaging edge app? 3. How is the video transfer to smartphone using the new imaging edge app? (this could have been a reason #14) do you have the feeling that imaging edge will be offering the other capabilities that playmemories app had? 4. Battery drain when using the Bluetooth pairing to geolocate the pictures? 5. Capability of rating pictures on camera. Is the rating visible /can be imported in light room or capture one? 6.light metering mode highlight (could be a reason #15). It is just a pity the other a6x00 cameras do not get the features of the a6400 which are not requiring the higher computing power of the new processor. I can't believe that color science, highlight metering or AWB lock require a high end processor. The change in the internal Operating System is not reason enough to abandon users of previous models.
i have used gimbal with no stabilization on camera with sigma lenses. it requires lot of work to keep the video stable, and sorry to say it does not work. that's why i am investing in sony a6500. in addition, at lower shutter speeds, i am not satisfied with the images due to a bit of shakiness. again, ibis will rescue me. its just a feature but very relevant in photography and filmmaking.
Thank you so much for this comprehensive review! I’ve been mulling on a new camera to upgrade from my very old Sony NEX5T! So now I’m keen to buy the A6400.
Another outstanding review! I find my new a6400 is giving new life to my old Canon glass. The 70-300l is terrific with the mc11 on the a6400, perhaps even better than on the 70d. Might have something to do with a weaker anti-aliasing filter on the Sony. As you know the mc11 with Canon lenses on the a6000 is virtually unusable. The modified ef-s 24 2.8 in another winner with the a6400. Haven’t modified (butchered) the ef-s 10-18 yet. Keep up the great reviews and tips.
(Long comment - sorry.) Don't get me wrong. If you shoot video these 13 points do indicate the a6400 may be better for you. Also if you're upgrading from the a6000 or a6300 this would be a great upgrade. But I don't shoot video so many of the 13 points don't apply to me. I thought I'd share these comments in case others are in the same situation. So why am I even looking at the a6400? I'm looking for a second camera for my portrait hobby, and I sometimes shoot sports. The key difference for me is IBIS and/or lenses with OSS. TechnologyMafia's 13 items... 1) New processor. I actually don't think the a6400 does have a new processor. According to the Sony web site the A6400 has the BIONZ X processor - same as the a6500 and A9. It may have updated software though. The a9 says it has updated algorithms. At any rate it does seem to be a bit faster. 2) Improved color science. Actually this is a negative for me. If I shoot a portrait session with both the a6400 and a6500 I'd have to deal with skin tones being different from the two cameras. 3) Auto focus enhancements. I definitely would like to have these improvements. This is what is attracting me to look at the a6400. EyeAF without holding a button would be great. 4) Flip up screen. As I don't Vlog or take selfies this is a non issue for me. 5) Interval shooting. I have the free time-lapse app installed on my a6500 so I already have the feature. But honestly I don't do interval shooting. I played with it once. 6) Improved menu system. I'd like that but it isn't a game changer. 7) No Record Limit. As I don't shoot video this is a non issue for me. 8) Runs cooler. As I don't shoot video this is a non issue for me. 9) HLG for video. As I don't shoot video this is a non issue for me. 10) Battery life. Better but still not good. I've learned to deal with it. Not a game changer. 11) No dim screen. As I don't shoot video this is a non issue for me. 12) Auto white balance lock. Nice feature. I use a grey card and custom WB. Not a game changer. Shows actual ISO. Nice little change. 13) Price. Yes I'd like a new camera but will settle for a used a6500 for about the same price. Why an a6500 is better for me 1) Has IBIS . This is the big one for me. I have six lenses. Three are Sony with OSS but they are not my good lenses. The other three are Sigma without OIS. They work fine on the a6500 but would result in a lower good quality image count with the a6400. I tried using my Sigma lenses with the a6500 and IBIS turned off and the results weren't good. 2) Extra custom button. Nice but not a game changer. 3) Deeper buffer. The a6400 buffer may be deep enough but I have often filled the a6500 buffer. A smaller buffer would clear more quickly. Not a game changer. If your coming from the a6000 or a6300 this would be great. So for me it's all about stabilization. I'm going with a used a6500 for my second camera. But truthfully I like new things and the a6400 isn't out of the running.
I shoot 90/10 still vs video & that's the reason I will not trade my A6500 for A6400. IBIS is crucial for non native lenses. Yes the better buffer n grip is a real bonus too. A6500 suits me much better.
People love to complain. Period.
I'm still blown away by my a6000 and I still enjoy using it every single time!
i love my a6000 as well!
A6000 just got a firmware update, have u guys updated it yet?
@@skay822 no, how is it?
I need to update the sigma 30mm f1.4 and the camera.
@@skay822 really? Awesome!
@@skay822 I did...something to do with autofocus improvement! I like it because I loaded several apps like stopmotion, timelapse etc and they are cool to use for some projects...I will keep it for sure but if Sony releases a new camera that has everything the a6400 has but ADDS a headphone jack and IBIS then I will buy it for sure...for now I'm fine!
Man sony should pay you to be their ambassador for the a6*** series. Keep it up!
They already do, he's a Sony influencer pal, can't you tell?
Definitely already being paid
Jason Harvey Nope, not getting paid by Sony or any other manufacturer. I’ve never taken sponsorships either.
@@ArthurR How do you afford to make all these videos + buy all this gear??
I do agree that you are much better than any others on RUclips.
Yes I just got a6400 after so many research on Sony. I'm a beginner so I appreciate your explanation
Spot on! Flip screen is best for my street shooting. Used a Nikon D5500 with flip out super touch screen, great camera, frustrating screen not angling straight up... Cheers!
For my a6000 I use a free app for Android called “Timelapse - Sony Camera”, from Thibaud Michel. Tricky to sync, not perfect, but certainly worth using.
By the way, as always, great video, nice explanation.
And because of your videos I bought my a6000, lens adaptor for Canon lenses, a Youngnuo 50mm 1.8 and a Meike 35 mm 1.7. You better stop those reviews, dollar in Brazil is 1:4 and my self control is terrible.
Cheers.
Awesome work dude! Need to get my hands on one of those as well. It seems like such an awesome step up for the a6k series. Just icing on the cake really!
At 7:41 I am absolutely with you, I like tilt back and flip up screens a lot more than left-side protruding screens. I used to have a Canon EOS R and a Panasonic FZ2000 and definitely I prefer tilt back screens both for photo and video.
Honestly, I think youve convinced me. I was about to get a 6500, but those are some really good points.
I bought mine because of your video! I absolutely love it. I had a Nex-6...so I’m blown away with the a6400.
I highly love the flip-up screen on the a6400 rather than the flip out screen. Glad to hear at least one other person feels the same!
Same here, flip out sideways is cumbersome and awkward to deploy and you lose the benefit of flip up compactness when street shooting. This Sony screen is by far the best compromise for vloggers and still shooters.
I like the flip up screen. I think it's very useful especially for family selfies. You might not need anyone to take your picture for you. :)
And I agree with the other person too that flip out is a bit awkward and weird. Imagine you vlog and your eyes keep going toward that way.
I fully agree 8:31 I used to own left protruding screen cameras from Panasonic and Canon, but I prefer the Sony tilt-back & flip-up screen a lot more.
Thank you so much! I am a new beginner. I purchased this camera before I saw your video and it made me glad I purchased it. Dont know what Im doing but Im sure I will figure it out. This video Helped.
Shawnette M. Davis, idk for sure but I’m going to assume the IO will be the same but if not, it should be similar to the a6500. If you search up “Sony A6500 Overview Tutorial” from tony and Chelsea, he gives a really good run down of how to use the camera.

Best of all, I really got an amazing deal, pretty much getting the camera for half of the retail price with two lenses included and I will hopefully also get a cashback for it, so in the end, it will come down to around 496 USD.
This will be my first mirrorless, changing from an a58 which did me good services over the years being my first DSLR, but now the time has come for mirrorless and I am really excited about it.
I've had mine for 2 months now and LOVE IT!
I have watched almost every video about this camera since day 1 so I know most if not everything about this camera.
But of course I will still watch to support your channel.
I always look forward to your reviews. That straddle the line between casual and technical perfectly.
I used to work at one of the top camera rental shops in NYC... for 14+ years, I could shoot with virtually any camera system. I was forced into early retirement due to a disability, and the only camera I personally owned was the A6000 with the kit lens. And a bunch of GoPros (but they don't count :-))... YIKES!!! I was waiting for the refresh of the A6500, but my sister enlisted me as the main, albeit somewhat slow, photographer for my nephew's wedding in mid-April. I just ordered the A6400 along with two of the 3 Sigma lenses (I bought them from FotoCare... I will use your link for gear in the future; I like supporting 'brick & mortar' shops for most things, but I know you have bills to pay). Thank you for such a great review: I started shooting with a Canon F1N in the mid-80s, pre-IS... in fact, PRE-AF! Shot Woodstock '99 for Canon & Kodak using a DCS-560, when reading histograms was a prerequisite. The young whippersnappers of today... IBIS... sounds like a type of bird... why, when I was your age... :-). Thank you again for all you do for us... and best to you and your beautiful family!!!!
.. I'm a newbie on professional camera's and this guy made it look so easy. i know all about sony a6### because of you. thank you
Just read the comments and I’m glad I’m not the only one who’s still happy with my a6500 ✌️😉✌️
I have 6300 and im happy with him. 6400 is not a huge different between this cameras.
I'm going to keep using my a6500. I mainly use sigma lenses so I need that IBIS
I just got mined recently, I'm glad I went for the A6500 since I started to use it to shoot video, that IBIS is amazing!
Sony may just release a new A6700 8 months after the A6400 to include IBIS, just like the A6300 and A6500.
For people who want the A6400, you may need to be aware of that!!
I was the one of the guy who bought the A6300 just few days before the A6500 announcement.....
He didn't say it did. You read it wrong.
That said, there is always a new device being released. You should get buyers remorse because something better is released tomorrow
The a6300 is still a beast, the a6400 is not much of an update mate. A real update would be A7III. If you want a proper midrange camera, there is Panasonic g80 upgrade the g90 being released in April.
Me too😬
I'm trying to be as patient as possible and wait until Q4 comes and goes before making my mirrorless purchase ... I need a lighter/compact pal for the a7iii.
The A7000 is on its way.
I picked the a6500 as the upgrade for my a6000. The selling point was IBIS.
Thing is, I don't vlog, and I don't often even shoot video. Stills almost all the way, and sometimes with manual lenses that I could not previously hand-hold without a firm elbow rest. I can drool over the new eye-auto-focus and the my-menu --- but I still went for IBIS
And... I did not wait for everything to come in a new a6700/a7000/aWhatever simply because the a6500 has now become affordable to me: that new wonder model will not be.
Same as a stills shooter, found an affordable used a6500 body under warranty. The ability to use 3rd party lenses in low light handheld at extremely low shutter speeds >> 6400's features which are vlogger focused. To each their own.
saved me from buying the A6500
did you regret it??
Didnt save me from buying the a6600
Me to
Did you regret??
I did not yet see the entire video but a reason you DID NOT MENTION and most reviews do not mention but is very important to me is the fill-in flash. I have always loved them on cameras for when I need just that little bit of extra light and do not want to take the time looking for and setting up a flash. I love them but others do not seem to, because it is almost NEVER mentioned in reviews.
Really loving my Sony a6400. I loved it so much that I did an unboxing video. Great video.
Thanks. I will buy the a6400 after watching this.
I had my a6000 for about 5 years. Served me well however I did notice a few overheating issues where the video would literally cut, stop recording and camera completely shutting off. I've done things to go around it like opening the battery lid compartment and pulling out the LCD screen to cool it down, but those are the perks of buying cameras nowadays packed with so much technology in such a compact form factor. It's finally died on me with a crack in the viewfinder, and after changing the settings back to my viewfinder (which I previously turned off) to test it, the LCD is no longer working and there's no way going back to the settings to turn it back on. I'm hoping the a6400 would give me a better experience, because the a6000 was a joy to use and lens selections is far ahead against competitors. It'd also be a hassle to re-sell my Sony lenses only to buy more for a totally new camera system other than Sony. For me, it wasn't a hard choice.
Thanks for the tips!
Hello Phúc Mập, mình cũng xem kênh của Arthur R cho máy ảnh Sony. Hihi.
Im with you on the flip UP screen .. I hated the flip out to the side screen on my old canon dslr... I think the flip up screen works so much better if you want to use it or not..
Well in Hong Kong, I find both are selling for around the same at less than $850, but the a6500 being an older model the depreciation rate would be much lower than the a6400. Plus I only use the non-stabilized sigma lenses. Color science could be corrected in post. I don’t do much sport so autofocus is not as important. I think I will upgrade to a6500 from my current a6000.
sun02547 don’t forget that RUclips has become an advertisement platform lately 😊
NatureLove so true! Lol
Go for it. I did. I always use RAW and Camera raw in Photoshop.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽. I've just bought an as new A6400, I paid top dollar for it, but it hasn’t been used by the seller and it comes with a couple of extra accessories. I was worried I had paid too much for the camera as there are used A6500's available at a lower price, but with your review, I'm confident that I was better going for the A6400. My daughter hasn’t used a camera much before. She takes pictures with her phone, but is studying to be a makeup artist and needs a camera to take good photos for her portfolio. I hope she is able to use the A6400 effectively. Her phone pics are amazing!
I went from the a6000 to the a6400....mostly for the mic jack...but all the other features have been a welcomed bonus.
Do you feel its worth the upgrade? I was thinking about it, but wasnt sure it was worth the money
@@alecfenn5040 If I didn't need the MIC Jack, I might have waited longer. For the price it's nice, The auto focus is amazing. Yes i'm happy with the upgrade and thing it was worth it but the A6000 was amazing for the price.
Finally! this is the review I’ve been waiting for 👍👍
Hi, one thing could be interesting to test in a futur video would be to compare a6500 /a6400 in low light condition in regard to focus quality. One with a better AF (6400) against the A6500 equiped with IBIS.
Sony should come out with an external stereo video/vlogging mic for the A6400 that plugs into the hot-shoe but doesn't block the lens. The cage options for the A6400 are awesome. I've heard that you can use the USB C port as a headphone jack, but you've got sound level indicators on the screen, so you can see if the camera is recording sound and at what level it is recording. Overall, great camera and great review! Might have to upgrade my A6300.
Great video!
I'm hoping the next camera in the lineup has the best of both the a6500 and a6400 features and specifications.
A6600
Really tempted to move up from my a6000 to the a6400 because of this video... but first I gotta get me a Sigma lens. Thanks man :)
Great review! Up to now, most reviewers have been crybabies that this camera isn't an A6700/A7000, but it's actually a genius move by Sony to get newbies into their APS-C platform, or even get A6000 owners like me with shallow pockets to think about stepping up. Honestly, when the price of a camera goes north of $1000, I start looking at the A7iii. I had no interest in moving from my excellent A6000 to the 6300/6500. They didn't offer enough to think about spending that kind of money. But the AF system and price of the 6400 has me looking at my budget. I don't do video much at all, and I've never noticed a problem with shake in my photos, so IBIS isn't a necessity. What really got me was the Eye/Face/Object AF and performance upgrade you noticed using the Sigma 30. I've moved my rig to the A6000 and the 3 Sigma APS-C lenses (16, 30 and 56), and the 6400 is the first body that I'd consider buying now if I'm staying in APS-C. Thanks for another EXCELLENT review!
Bro, really love your channel..been using a6000 for 2 years now n watched your video ever since..
bought 2 lenses based on your video review..and now looking forward to upgrade to a6400..
Thanks bro
Just brought 6400 love it and I'm an ex A7 mk111 owner. I changed to micro 4/3 for a while but back with sony and this camera .
It's excellent as is the review well done
You missed a very important upgrade in my opinion, i.e. the death of Center Lock-on AF and the introduction of Touch and Track AF for video. Can you please test it's reliability and stickiness vs just letting the camera decide area of interest? Thanks.
Ahhh, thanks. I'm tempted but I think I'll hold out for IBIS. I have it on the a7 3 and it is so worth it.
I have an a7R II and that is why I upgraded from 6000 to the 6500 last year. The 6000 is the real bargain, but when the light isn't on your side, the answer is IBIS. In the mean time I also bought a Lumix G9. When Sony bring out a 6600 with IBIS plus High Resolution and a nice bright big EVF as already available on the LUMIX G9 and coming soon on the A7R IV, I'll be at the front of the queue. After using a G9, it is clear that Sony are miles behind in terms of good EVF.
your A6XXX convinced me to move to this system. THIS VIDEO convince me to go with the A6400. Thanks for doing all the research legwork. Will be ordering the a6400 in a couple of weeks.
Nice choice! Thanks for watching!
Nice ,,, I’m still gonna use my a6500 since I use vintage lenses so the ibis is good on it
Duo Exia , agree. I got a bunch of beautiful manual lenses and the 6500 does the ibis job perfectly. Extra $400 for a flip screen? Please.
Thanks for the info. I really like the 6400, many of these features are overkill for a newbie but it does focus super fast and I've found the flip up screen usable... I saw the a7 IV come out but come on... $3500? I'm good with this a6400.
Arrgh, this is making me want to upgrade from the a6000... I wonder how the resell value of them will hold up with many people upgrading.
Regarding the mic and display issue, many don’t know that some mic manufactures (such as Audio Technica) produce compact mics that pretty much just stick out of the 3.5 jack and can be turned in different directions. That may not be ideal when you need stereo sound, but for most people doing mono audio, that’s a super nice solution that doesn’t require getting any extra parts because no hot shoe/cold shoe mounting is needed.
Just got my 6400 and I almost purchased a a74 but this one fits my need perfect compact and up to date on features and specs!!!
Could you please do an image quality comparison vs the a6000 in 1080p?
For video, you should choose at least the a6300. It‘s got 4K, 1080p120, the Video picture profiles and a mic jack. All things the a6000 doesn’t have.
@@GuitarMastr3000LP gotta agree with this. a6000 is better if you're not frequently (or professionally) shooting video. a6300 is a deal especially if you can find it second hand and without lenses
I personally love the flip up screen, for the exact reason you said!
Hey, your side by side comparison at 3:02: which side is from a6400 and which is from a6500?
thank you for making this vedio, i will go for A6400 now
Side note: Your wife has a great smile (:
Ye, would give anything to have those teeths..
You're hitting on someone's wife...to their face...as he shows pictures of her with their new baby. Either that was an f'ed up effort at flattery or you're just plain creepy. Neither's good.
Just take it as a compliment and a reason for a return viewer lol
In all honestly I've found the ibis on APSC is a bit of a gimmick, it helps a tad but people expect it to be that super stable level of ibis found in the full frames but its not the case, the travel is a significant amount smaller. If you want proper ibis pick up a Sony a7/a9 range.
Another great review. Thanks. I did just buy an a6500 and still happy with my choice. I assume I can correct colors in Lightroom, which was the major thing I cared about. I also wanted IBIS because I shoot handheld a lot and I have several Sigma lenses with EF mount from my Canon cameras. And I do shoot sports a lot (well, circus shows mostly, which is kind of like sports), so having larger buffer is nice. But it is great to know all the benefits of a6400. If Sony comes up with the a6600 that includes IBIS, might be worth an upgrade.
so far probably best review of these cameras thus far on RUclips.... coz nobody else is talking about the limit problem... use to really bug me on A5100 was a big shocker... But yeah thanks for the awesome tip following this video i'm setting my sights on A6400 over A6500 considering the IBIS improvement is rather marginal
Exactly the information I was looking for and needed. Your videos are very good, maybe the best concerning the camera info I seek. Very clearly explained. Thank You very much!!!
Great review/comparison. I really wanted to upgrade my a6000 but not decided if I’ll be getting a6400 or wait for a7000.
I'm gonna wait for a7000 or whatever Sony decides to call it...! Headphone jack and IBIS!
@Foto4Max right...more money...I just can't afford the a7iii- my main camera is a C100 mk2 and I don't do 4k yet...hmmm'
I think they knocked it out of the park with the a6400! Definitely picking one up!
Great video. Thank you for the information and informed perspective; it was very useful for someone starting out and trying to make a camera starting decision.
Hi I’m from Thailand. Your videos are very useful for me right now. I am considering to buy 6400. At this moment I get the answer. Subscribed! Looking forward to watching more.
You lucky bastard! And I'm not talking about the camera! But anywaaaaaysss you've convinced me to get myself an A6400!
He's done a good job in multiple areas...
Thanks for the best A6400 review on RUclips 👏
My biggest concern for upgrading was the performance benefits of the sigma 30 on the a6400, definitely will upgrade now!
Gosh, love your videos, always best reviews compared to others
Thanks! Decided to order the 6400 today, your review gave me the final impulse to go for the 6400.
Pre ordered it, can't wait :)
going to buy an A6400 right now because of this video and two days of research lol. great video!
I hope you like it! I've been using mine for a few months now and I couldn't be happier with it. A lot of people have complained about it, but it has so many great features that makes the camera just a joy to use!
@@mud_rocker been a busy weekend so haven't been able to go out and shoot but having a little play around the house and yeah its great. just can't wait to get out and do some shooting.
I might upgrade my A6300 to A6400 in some near future, very interesting comparison review! one of the biggest small disappointments to me was lack of SD UHSII slot.... quite a bummer. Instead, they keep obsolete Memory Stick for some reason. I can't understand that. There is virtually no cost to adding UHSII support, except for marketing/product positioning reasons.
Great video man! Was contemplating the Sony 35mm lens and the 18-105 to have a good range for the A6400 I am going to order. I am going to be doing a lot of video, vlogging and photography. Should I do a Sigma 30mm instead? Was only doing the Sony lens because of the OSS. It’s not that big a deal though?
Great job on the video, I'm shooting short videos and more interested in low light so it's actually a toss up between used A7 original model with small body as a second camera vs A6400. This is really nice to know they did such a good job on the 6400 though.
I second the flip up screen, it makes people's eyes open up just a bit wider and brighter.
I am a wedding shooter..with no extra budget...I have the a6500 with..samyang 12 mm wide on steaycam,sony 35 mm f1.8,sony 18-105, and believe me it's everything you need to film a wedding...and after the 2019 software update for sony a6500 the stabilisation increased so much...for weddings I will not change my camera...I love you men for your review sony a6400..you are the best...Sory for my english
Thinking about buying the a6400, but I'm loving my a6000. Gonna keep experimenting with my a6000 for another year or so.
And have you stayed with a6000?
@@pawelje I ended up getting the a6100 last year.
Can you please review the new a6600/a6100 and do a comparison video with the previous generation
Wow I'm so glad I came across this I was just about to buy the a6500! Though the a6400 has no IBIS , I think all the other features are so worth it. Especially since it doesn't have the overheating issue when shooting video.
I cannot understand where are a6400 samples on image comparison ?? Are they from the left or from the right ?
left
I have the a6000 and plan to finally upgrade. But I’m keeping the a6000 for backup.
Great review video as always.
The A6500 also has two MR positions on the mode wheel for direct access to preselected settings.
This vkideo finally convinced me buying a a6400. Now I can't understand why so many RUclipsrs don't recomend this nice camera. Thank you ;-)
termi77 yup me too.Its not perfect but it’s superb,
I'm upgrading my Sony 6000 and have been soooo confused. I'm glad I watched this video. I'll be buying the 6400. Not too worried about the stabilization because all my lenses have that. Thanks.
Just got mine. Love it! HUGE WARNING: The silent shutter is not usable with indoor lighting. Banding is INSANE. Wish I had known so I wasn’t let down.
@Bikechanic Got the sigma 56 1.4, and I am in love. Use it for professional gigs. Can't imagine an a73 being clearer. It rides with me in my backpack 24/7, and I have had 0 issues even with the motion/banging around. Probably 5k pictures taken. I don't do a lot of video, but the lack of stabilization has been no issue for pictures. the sigma 56 is insane sharp. The only downside is that if you want to use silent shutter inside, it's literally not usable. But if that's not an issue, then stop messing around and get it :)
Excellent videos. I had ordered an a5100. After I saw your a6100 vid, I cancelled the order and ordered one w/kit lens. Then I saw your a6400 videos; cancelled the a6100 and ordered an a6400 with severe buyer's remorse. Until I saw your other 6400 videos. Now; I will NOT cancel and am waiting for my new a6400 w/50-135, and plan to get a Sigma 30mm. Yippie! My first good camera was a Canon AE1 Program. My last really great camera was a Canon F1 which I dumped for $100.How about reviewing streaming hardware w/s6400; HDMI to USB vs HDMI to h264/H265.
Lastly, the Sony camera has WiFi. It records using h264 (old should upgrade to h265). So why cannot they make it send h264 or h265 over the USB or WiFI? Thanks for the reviews!
Was wondering about your opinion. I just purchased the A6400 and A6500 - like to have a lightweight setup for travel. Lenses: Sony 10-18mm f4, OSS; Sigma 16mm f.14; Tamron 28-75mm f2.8. My original thought was to use the A6400 for video and the A6500 for photos. I am thinking about returning the A6500 after watching this video, getting another A6400 + Sony 35mm f.18 OSS (or the Sigma 30mm). What do you think?
definitely gonna upgrade my a6000 to the a6400 now. Thanks 🌊🌊🌊
Do it! You won't regret it. I did. I trade in at with Focus Camera and got a pretty good deal for it after using it for 3+ years.
Danny Dam if your talking about focus camera in Brooklyn.. thats crazy! Cause thats definitely where i was planning on going
Same here
@@wavyboyjodii Sorry for the late reply, but it's the one. They gave me the highest price compare to B&H or Keh.
Danny Dam dope!
Think the biggest discussion for Sony APS-C enthusiasts right now is whether to upgrade to FF or not. Both A7 and A7ii are selling for less than a thousand dollars with some small and affordable lenses available such as the 28 F2 and 50 F1.8, for example
Thank You! I was trying to figure out which one to get and saw lots of comparisons that made it sound like this is a close decision around picture quality judgements. These are indeed the reasons I will get the A6400. The biggest reason is the AF. I was blown away by the A9 but not ready to go that big. Getting an A7/A9 lite is perfect for me.
So glad that I have seen your video before getting the camera
Loved the way you arranged your pros and cons
Very convincing
The Sony website shows specs for the a6500, a9, and a6400. They all indicate that these three cameras use the BionZ X processor. Sony may very well have updated the algorithms in the A9 and a6400 though.
At 15:54 the constant display of the actual ISO value in Auto ISO is awesome. This lack of this was a terribly frustrating in Panasonic cameras. Evan the mighty GH5 cannot display actual ISO.
Hey Dear, first if all I’d like to say that you and your wife and your beloved baby has been awesome to watch. Thanks for sharing your valuable reviews. One of the best. 👌🏼
I bought A6400 last weekend and i have been trying everything according to manual. I am hugely stressed about the Auto Focus! I am a professional and have been over 20+ years, Canon user and medium and large format photography. I like using manual focus most of the time but Sony (I thought) has something spectacular with this camera. Eye Focusing, Tracking etc. Well, lets say it this way, as much i’d like to think it is me but out of 100+ photos, i can only find a bunch of photos are in focus.
I have the 16-50mm kit lens came with it. Now the question is, is it the lens? But in manual focus and recording videos are fine. It is actually fairly sharp and nice lens. Fits well with a compact camera.
Should i try another lens? Or upgrade this to A7 mkIII? Or change the camera? I want to use it mostly for videos with my Gimbal, yes the videos are fine but a lot to pay just for a video! I’d love to hear your suggestions please.
Thanks a million. 🙏🏼
Superb video! Please keep creating great content! Specially AWB lock was new to me, even after watching dozens of a6400 videos... Fully agree with the pros. Could you address following topics in your next video :
1. Eyeaf using the sigma 30mm 1.4 lense. Missing the IBIS when using the sigma indoors?
2. How good is the smartphone pairing with the new imaging edge app?
3. How is the video transfer to smartphone using the new imaging edge app? (this could have been a reason #14) do you have the feeling that imaging edge will be offering the other capabilities that playmemories app had?
4. Battery drain when using the Bluetooth pairing to geolocate the pictures?
5. Capability of rating pictures on camera. Is the rating visible /can be imported in light room or capture one?
6.light metering mode highlight (could be a reason #15).
It is just a pity the other a6x00 cameras do not get the features of the a6400 which are not requiring the higher computing power of the new processor. I can't believe that color science, highlight metering or AWB lock require a high end processor. The change in the internal Operating System is not reason enough to abandon users of previous models.
i have used gimbal with no stabilization on camera with sigma lenses. it requires lot of work to keep the video stable, and sorry to say it does not work. that's why i am investing in sony a6500. in addition, at lower shutter speeds, i am not satisfied with the images due to a bit of shakiness. again, ibis will rescue me. its just a feature but very relevant in photography and filmmaking.
Thank you so much for this comprehensive review! I’ve been mulling on a new camera to upgrade from my very old Sony NEX5T! So now I’m keen to buy the A6400.
Another outstanding review! I find my new a6400 is giving new life to my old Canon glass. The 70-300l is terrific with the mc11 on the a6400, perhaps even better than on the 70d. Might have something to do with a weaker anti-aliasing filter on the Sony. As you know the mc11 with Canon lenses on the a6000 is virtually unusable. The modified ef-s 24 2.8 in another winner with the a6400. Haven’t modified (butchered) the ef-s 10-18 yet. Keep up the great reviews and tips.
thanks for the very interesting comparison, i like the kind of your informative videos.
best greetings from Switzerland, Urs
Love it. Convinced me. I was gonna get the A6500.
Same here. I was going to buy the a6500 but after this video I bought the a6400
(Long comment - sorry.) Don't get me wrong. If you shoot video these 13 points do indicate the a6400 may be better for you. Also if you're upgrading from the a6000 or a6300 this would be a great upgrade. But I don't shoot video so many of the 13 points don't apply to me. I thought I'd share these comments in case others are in the same situation. So why am I even looking at the a6400?
I'm looking for a second camera for my portrait hobby, and I sometimes shoot sports. The key difference for me is IBIS and/or lenses with OSS.
TechnologyMafia's 13 items...
1) New processor. I actually don't think the a6400 does have a new processor. According to the Sony web site the A6400 has the BIONZ X processor - same as the a6500 and A9. It may have updated software though. The a9 says it has updated algorithms. At any rate it does seem to be a bit faster.
2) Improved color science. Actually this is a negative for me. If I shoot a portrait session with both the a6400 and a6500 I'd have to deal with skin tones being different from the two cameras.
3) Auto focus enhancements. I definitely would like to have these improvements.
This is what is attracting me to look at the a6400. EyeAF without holding a button would be great.
4) Flip up screen. As I don't Vlog or take selfies this is a non issue for me.
5) Interval shooting. I have the free time-lapse app installed on my a6500 so I already have the feature. But honestly I don't do interval shooting.
I played with it once.
6) Improved menu system. I'd like that but it isn't a game changer.
7) No Record Limit. As I don't shoot video this is a non issue for me.
8) Runs cooler. As I don't shoot video this is a non issue for me.
9) HLG for video. As I don't shoot video this is a non issue for me.
10) Battery life. Better but still not good. I've learned to deal with it. Not a game changer.
11) No dim screen. As I don't shoot video this is a non issue for me.
12) Auto white balance lock. Nice feature. I use a grey card and custom WB. Not a game changer. Shows actual ISO. Nice little change.
13) Price. Yes I'd like a new camera but will settle for a used a6500 for about the same price.
Why an a6500 is better
for me
1) Has IBIS . This is the big one for me. I have six lenses. Three are Sony with OSS but they are not my good lenses. The other three are Sigma without OIS. They work fine on the a6500 but would result in a lower good quality image count with the a6400. I tried using my Sigma lenses with the a6500 and IBIS turned off and the results weren't good.
2) Extra custom button. Nice but not a game changer.
3) Deeper buffer. The a6400 buffer may be deep enough but I have often filled the a6500 buffer. A smaller buffer would clear more quickly.
Not a game changer. If your coming from the a6000 or a6300 this would be great.
So for me it's all about stabilization. I'm going with a used a6500 for my second camera. But truthfully I like new things and the a6400 isn't out of the running.
John Donaldson “not a game changer”= I have no argument.
I normally dont comment.
But the way you described i love it
Thanks for making my decision easier. Ok
You are in your home why dont you use USB power to shoot your video? Great video. I appreciate the information
I love your video on this camera, after watching it i decided to add this camera to my a6000
I shoot 90/10 still vs video & that's the reason I will not trade my A6500 for A6400. IBIS is crucial for non native lenses. Yes the better buffer n grip is a real bonus too. A6500 suits me much better.
Get a tripod. Far better than ibis
I will be upgrading to a a6400 from from a6500. 🤣🤣🤣 Jk jk im with u on this one. Although id like to record longer than 30 mins sometimes
Lot of difference and looking at buying a6400 thank you very much Mr. Arthur
