The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Sony A6400 Pros: Build quality, autofocus, versatility, tropicalization, lightness, compactness, electronic shutter, good workability of RAW. Cons: Absence of stabilization, viewfinder, ISO sealing, rolling shutter. Opinion: I had this camera for over 4 years and it was a really nice "gym" with which I started to devote myself to amateur photography in a satisfactory way. Pick it up and you already have a decent feeling of sturdiness, with a magnesium alloy body and a decent grip, certainly enough for most users. I mainly did street shots in black and white (almost always shooting in RAW and converting) but also family shots, portraits, parties and events, sometimes landscapes. I have always been satisfied with the workability of the files and I have taken shots that I am still very fond of. The jpegs, with the right adjustments, are decent and usable (even if the skin tones sometimes make you suffer). The autofocus needless to say is a bomb, I have always shot continuously and I have never had problems, compared to the a6000 that I had previously owned the leap forward is absolutely remarkable. The dynamic range is good, not exceptional, however among the many pearls of the camera there is the highlights exhibition mode that allows you to put the highlights in the range without burning them and which is excellent for creative shots such as silhouettes etc. The ISO hold is good up to 1600, I don't feel like recommending to go further, even if in B/W I have sometimes reached 2500/3200 with acceptable results. The burst is good (11FPS), the rolling shutter with electronic shutter is very bad and is really very intrusive. However, I used the ES a lot in normal lighting conditions but avoiding scenes with artificial lighting (presence of dark bands). The screen (touch and flip-up) but above all the viewfinder are of mediocre quality and make you suffer in bright conditions: you could have done better. I have rarely made videos but the a6400 has excellent color profiles that can be customized among other things also for jpegs; honestly, however, I didn't use them much because I found the special menu not very intuitive (although I know of creators who have managed to get good "recipes" similar to those of other brands). It was precisely the difficulty of having good shots in the camera that eventually made me switch to Fujifilm, and now I have an XM5 and an XT30 II that are practically perfect for my needs. The Sony was excellent and reliable but it no longer gave me the desire to go out to photograph and in these cases there is little to do, you have to change. Ultimately it is a machine that still in 2025 for me is excellent especially for beginners / enthusiasts or as a second / third emergency corps. For some things, however, it begins to feel the weight of its 6 years and that is why I recommend taking it used with a shot count of less than 10 thousand and not paying more than 650/700 euros.
