From the A6000 to this, it's a great upgrade
4/5

After purchasing an A6000, I decided to upgrade to this camera and I am extremely delighted with it in both its own right as well as as an upgrade from the A6000. The key new features for those upgrading from an older Sony camera are a touchscreen, effortless Eye AF, real-time focusing, and fast autofocus It is possible to track your time. With the touchscreen, you can easily reposition your Eye-tracker A finger can be tapped or dragged across the back panel to quickly find an AF point. It is possible to view this functionality using the LCD or EVF and is an important step up from last year's model The pad has a four-way arrow. A new Sony Eye-Fi camera has been released With camera AF you can concentrate on composition without having to worry about which point of focus your camera is on. The final word goes to The Time Tracking feature lets you hold onto a moving subject like a I feel that this camera has a great travel value on its own. There is no problem fitting the 18-inch Among the lenses available are the 135mm zoom, the 35mm prime, and the 10-140mm On a hike or while walking through an overcrowded city, you can carry the 18mm zoom all day with ease in a very small bag. Despite the lack of bulk and weight of a large camera, there is still good image quality. Despite its many advantages, there are a few downsides to this device. Sony should have included a joystick and an exposure dial to make the design even more highly customizable. The only UHS-I option Sony provided was a slow one The camera takes FOREVER to clear its buffer when it is plugged in to the card slot. Last but not least, Sony omitted the IBIS feature from this model to reserve the feature for their future top-line models In the The first line of the statement is In summary, I'm very pleased with this camera for traveling!.

When I take pictures with my camera, the pictures are green
4/5

I have updated A small amount of research on the web led me to find a few people with the same issue and they said it was fluorescent lighting. Don't be like me and get scared if you see some greenish pictures indoor. Maybe you are in a room with fluorescent light, but you can get rid of that problem if you increase your shutter speed. Whenever I use my camera in the outdoors, it It appears that artificial lighting is the cause of the problem. Whenever it is possible, use an OSS Sony lens if you are an amateur photographer like me.
My first post I was looking forward to my camera for so long but I'm so sad now that it's delayed. Obviously, I am not sure why it is taking green tainted pictures. I do not know what to do with my new camera, which arrived today. As well as the new Sigma 30mm, I tried using another lens (a new Sigma 30mm Four) and has the same green tint as the photographs.

What is the best camera on the market with regard to price and features, regardless of the brand
5/5

What is the best camera on the market with regard to price and features, regardless of the brand. I don't know where you're getting your money from, but just give it up. Because of the camera's price and features, I even returned to what I used to own, the Nikon D3300. I've also owned the Sony A6000, the Sony A7R, and even a full frame camera. Since I'm on a budget like most of you here, this was the best photography purchase to advance my career. If I had the money, I would buy the A7iii, but since I'm on a budget like most of you, this was the best. I have been a photographer since 1996. Those are the three features I think are most important Unmatched real-time vision from Sony I love the fast and smart AF for both photo and video! I think the weight, usability, and customizability are all ideal. My favorite setup so far is the a6400 plus the Sony 85mm 1 so far. Sigma 16mm 1 or Sigma 5mm Effective Crop Sensor) or the Sigma 5mm Effect Crop Sensor. The active crop sensor is 21mm (effective crop sensor). Thus, you get to enjoy the 24mm and 135mm zoom lenses combined with this It's just a matter of adding the flash of your choice! (I'm a portrait photographer).

This model does decently in low light and is good for subjects that move (not so fast!)
5/5

Having owned the a6400 since it started shipping ten days ago, I have had it for 10 days now. In my tests, I checked performance in low light and at high ISO, as well as the tracking capabilities. As far as AF accuracy is concerned, it seems to be fantastic and very accurate- This mode does not track. You can make pictures appear to have a 3D effect by nailing the focus. Although tracking mode is accurate and fast (thus you can get a high match rate of almost 80%), it is not blazingly fast. Also, I own an A9 and native lenses, in addition to adapted lenses for the camera. The a6400 even though 1/4 the price of an A9 has 50% close performance to an A9 in comparison, considering the two cameras are similar in price and size. two pictures were shot on the street (bus and car) as a test of the AF tracking. Within hours of receiving the camera, the tracking seemed satisfactory for a first try without having to play with the settings much. Three of the images were taken indoors with ISO 3200, and all of the pictures are straight out of the camera. My lenses already have OS or IS image stabilization and work very well, but there is no IBIS in this camera. An Auto ISO feature automatically takes three pictures in a short time span, combines them like an HDR photograph, and lets you apply the results to your photo. These features are great in low-light situations, and I love that they are available There is no flash in this light.
We love the clear digital zoom, which allows for you to extend the range of your lens by half, which comes in handy when you need to get into that shot but are short on distance. Using the example above, for example. When the clear zoom option is chosen in settings for your lens, you will be able to zoom to 400 mm if you have a lens that can zoom to 200 mm. Although the learning curve for the Menu can be a little overwhelming, there are excellent tutorials that can guide you through it. My favorite YouTube channel is the one run by Mark Galer. I just wanted to let you know. A great feature to customize the menu is that you can make it according to your tastes. The menu and controls are on par with My love for the camera is definitely growing, and 10 days later I am even more enamored with the camera. We'll see how it performs this spring when I push it to the limits. The chances are almost 100% that I won't be let down. After 15 years with Canon, I no longer use canon lenses, but I have left them in favor of this brand. It is my opinion that Sony gives more value for your money if you At the very least, there are no cameras in their EDITOR'S NOTE I've added one more image, and the battery life is pretty good, too.

The camera is good for both still pictures and I would be remiss if I did not upgrade my a6000 to this camera
5/5

However, I did not buy it for that reason. FDR was among the options that I considered Although I had a vision of purchasing the AX700 camcorder, when I saw the A6400's video recording capabilities, it seemed like the rational choice, mostly due to the fact that I could conserve money by buying it. However, what has really convinced me is that it does not shut down after only a few minutes of recording, unlike many Alpha models. It also does not have an upper limit on recording time.

A few other new features include the increased eye autofocus and the ability to charge it directly via the micro USB port.

As a final note, the image quality is considerably better than the A6000. Now I can use ISO higher than 1600 with confidence that my images will turn out well. Lastly, I found the silent shutter to be rather useful. The system is something I really need from time to time, and I now.
