Sony Alpha a6400 Mirrorless Digital Camera with 16-50mm Lens (Black)

Ignite your creativity with the Sony Alpha α6400 Mirrorless Digital Camera with 16-50mm lens. This camera features the world's fastest auto focus which allows you to capture instant shots from fast action to candid. You can capture amazing shots and get incredible detail that makes for gorgeous enlargements thanks to its newly developed 24.2 megapixel Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor.

24.2-Megapixel APS-C Image Sensor

Create images of astounding beauty that surpass your expectations with the Sony a6400’s newly developed 24.2- megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor. The same size as most DSLRs, this sensor offers high sensitivity in dimly lit environments and strikingly attractive foreground and background defocusing. You’ll enjoy the increased light collecting efficiency of a gapless on-chip lens structure, extremely low noise throughout a wide sensitivity range of ISO 100 to 25600, and superb corner-to-corner image quality with lifelike color, supreme detail and smooth tonal gradations that reveal every nuance of your scene.

BIONZ X Image Processor

Astonishingly fast, Sony’s sophisticated BIONZ X image processor reproduces textures and details in real time as seen by the naked eye. The resulting images in the Sony Alpha a6400 mirrorless camera are remarkably realistic with especially rich tonal gradations and a natural three-dimensional appearance. The processor is lightning fast, giving you continuous shooting up to 11 fps. Visual noise is nearly imperceptible thanks to further advanced area-specific noise reduction. Detail reproduction technology delivers more detailed textures while diffraction-reducing technology optimizes the performance of any lens you mount to enable advances such as finer details at small aperture settings.

425 AF Points

The Sony Alpha a6400 mirrorless has higher-precision contrast-detection AF (Fast Intelligent AF) points, with an improved Fast Hybrid AF system features the world's fastest 425 extremely accurate phase-detection AF points that covers 84% of the entire image area for superior auto focusing. They permit enhanced subject tracking plus the capture of fast-moving subjects anywhere on the screen, as well as improved scene recognition and subject size detection.

Ultra HD Movies

Press the MOVIE button on your Sony a6400 to start recording beautiful 4K UHD movies notable for their sharpness and lack of visual “noise” in your choice of 60p, 60i or 24p. New improved Fast Hybrid AF provides remarkably fast and accurate auto-focusing and tracking while shooting movies. You can also use P/A/S/M modes to achieve maximum control over how the image looks, and zoom with extra clarity, courtesy of Clear Image Zoom.

Touchscreen and Viewfinder

The Alpha a6400 mirrorless camera features a 180-degree fully tiltable LCD touch screen for self-recording. The 180° tiltable, 3.0-type LCD flip screen has 921k-dots of resolution that allows for simple and effective framing of selfie-style shooting for both still and video capture. It has a high quality XGA OLED Tru-finder viewfinder to help you hone in on your subjects.

Sony 16-50mm OSS Lens

The Sony Alpha a6000 interchangeable lens is the 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS lens, bringing you a 35mm format equivalent of 24-75mm for portrait to landscape shots. Optical Steady Shot image stabilization helps minimize camera shake for better image quality.

Sony Alpha a6400 Mirrorless Digital Camera with 16-50mm Lens (Black) SKU: ILCE6400LB

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Great travel camera I’ve had this camera for 3 years now and I’m quite pleased with it as a back up travel camera. I like the light weight, compact size together with the 17-105 f/4 G lens. Picture quality is good, albeit not fantastic.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from CAMERA IS GREAT ~ REBATE PROCESS SUCKS I BOUGHT THIS CAMERA AS A BACKUP CAMERA TO UPGRADE FROM AN A6000. THE A6000 IS AWESOME BUT I WANTED SOME OF THE NEWER FEATURES. I WAS NOTIFIED THAT THERE IS A REBATE ON THIS AND WHEN I GO TO THE SONY SITE THERE IS NO WAY TO SUBMIT A REBATE FORM.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing Camera I have had this camera for a little bit of time now, and I must admit! This is an amazing camera to work with! I have never had any issues and my photos come out of GREAT quality! I love telling clients and friends that I roll with Sony and my model is a a6400! I cant wait to be able to get a new lease for it to show off and enhance my skills further!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy enough to set up This is the day after it arrived. My hands aren't as steady as they used to be so I am pleased with the quick autofocus. I have accessed the online help page and it is showing how to get around. In a month I will be able to writ a more meaningful review, but you know how one is nagged to immediately write something when you register your product.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Added features do not work Can't 'verify connection' when attached via USB - although the connection is working to transfer files. Stuck in an endless loop trying to get it to connect so I can add and update apps. Nothing online that matches the ''error' message. So all of that USB/software stuff is useless to me.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Wish I had the 6600 This is my first interchangeable lens camera and I bought it 5 weeks ago alongside the 70-350mm G OSS super-telephoto lens (SEL70350G). There are two things I wish I knew when I bought this camera: (1) There's almost always noticeable blur in my shots. On a tripod and with a wireless remote or a 2-second delay, I can get stunningly gorgeous shots, but that’s about it. Because I am brand new to taking photos, I didn’t realize that I would love photography as much as I do! Now, I deeply regret not getting a camera with in-body image stabilization (ibis), such as on the 6600. I want to shoot hand-held without the 6400's blur and I want access to a wider-range of lenses--namely, those that don't have Optical SteadyShot (OSS) which helps compensate a bit for the lack of ibis in the camera body. (2) Because I only own slower lenses and often shoot at dusk at 350mm and thus F6.3, virtually all my images must be at high iso's are thus grainy and noisy. In bright light the noise is fine, but I am often frustrated with my image quality. In summary, now that I want more form my equipment, specifically a body with ibis and faster (lower f-stop) lenses which may not come with OSS, such as the 16-55mm F2.8 (SEL1655G), I feel stuck with a sub-par product in the 6400 that limits how much more I can pursue my new-found passion for photography. Hopefully, I can sell this 6400 for a decent price and invest in a 6600 and faster lenses (even those that lack OSS). It is my own fault, but I'm still frustrated that Sony doesn't do a better job of communicating that you'll always want either ibis or OSS at all times. I wish I wasn’t past the 30-day return window, or I’d return this camera.
