Sony Alpha ILCE-6400 Kit

Advantages: I will compare with Sony 6300, which I used for 1 year, switched to Sony from Canon 60D, I love it, I'm tired of carrying this brick) - the camera feels faster than the Sony 6300; - excellent image quality; - excellent ergonomics; - colors are warmer than Sony 6300, skin tones are better; - excellent auto focus on the eyes; - good built-in microphone, bought an external one, but did not notice much difference; - flip-up screen, I'm not a blogger but sometimes it's convenient; - it works significantly longer due to the new processor, one battery charge on vacation was confidently enough for a day, 70% of photos, 30% of videos; - the screen does not fade when shooting in 4K, this is a big plus for me, when I was shooting on a Sony 6300 with an electronic stabilizer on a sunny day, nothing was visible at all. - there is no time limit for recording in 4K, it's not relevant to me, but cool. - there is no overheating when shooting in 4K, Sony 6300 let down once at the most inopportune moment it was cut out due to overheating.- the menu has a tab "favorites" very conveniently you can take out the most important functions. - I like the silent mode, you can save the shutter resource by photographing flowers)

Disadvantages: - and yet I would like even more autonomy. - focus on the eyes does not always work at the right moment, it may be necessary to make additional settings. - why it is necessary to separately select "human eyes", "animal eyes" in the menu, it was impossible to combine all of this)

Comment: I am very pleased with the camera, often on business trips, I take the camera with me. I use two lenses Sony 18-135, Sigma 30 1.4 is enough for this set.

Advantages: I've been shooting with this camera for a year and here's the full review: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTqvyZXNtVfQZO3yEPIdS_A The camera is compact, does not overheat, writes in 4k and takes good photos. There is a microphone output and a rotating screen

Disadvantages: Rolling shutter in 4k mode, rather soapy 1080p, no headphone output, can't output 4k to an external monitor

Comment: Most of all I miss the headphone output, because I work behind the camera and it's bad when you can't monitor the sound. Sony crop lenses focus smoothly, but there are not many solutions with large apertures and stabilization in the lineup. And stabilized lenses are a must for this camera.

Advantages: Focus, grip, powerbank operation, dynamic range

Disadvantages: No 4k in 60 frames

Comment: If you need the smartest autofocus at an adequate price, then this is the Sony 6400. I have never met better among aps-c cameras. He really seems to feel where and how the subject of the shooting will move, and if he grabbed, he will not let go! When I tried the eye trick - that's it, now I don't know ... how it was possible, in principle, to live without him before! This makes it very easy to work with any high-aperture optics, there can be no miss in the model in principle. The battery is not very large, but it is boldly enough for half a day of photography, plus a huge one in that by connecting the powerbank, you can safely shoot further, it helps a lot. There are no problems with post-processing photos at all, a wide dynamic range will allow you to easily extract details from shadows and highlights.

Advantages: Compactness, autofocus speed, battery operation

Disadvantages: native battery

Comment: I liked how the camera fits comfortably in the hand, it is not heavy, all the necessary buttons are located in the right places. The video shoots perfectly. Pleased with its tenacious autofocus and color reproduction, many photos do not even need any processing. Wi-Fi is available, so there is no problem with data transfer. A good travel device.

Advantages: Price, eye autofocus, real-time tracking autofocus, you can connect a power bank and shoot 4k hdr video in the first place in one large piece, and not for 30 minutes, and secondly, you can shoot until the power bank sits down, not heavy, the display rotates for selfies ... Convenient to focus on the touch screen.

Disadvantages: No stub on the matrix, no 4k 60 frames per second.

Comment: I am not a professional photographer, but a home photographer. It used to be very annoying that I could not focus on moving objects normally, then one eye is in focus, the other is not,then focusing on the nose, and after one photo the cameraman refocuses on the chin somewhere and because of similar problems he deleted a lot of photos, although I really liked them in the composition. Or I had to do a lot of takes. When shooting a video in general, only manual focus was and because of this in general On Sonya, thanks to some kind of new intelligent autofocus, these problems disappeared altogether, the focus is fast both in the video and in the photo, pointed a finger at a person or faces, which priority in focus would have been and that's all, grace, let them be there at least move across the screen, focus moves with them, I just have to press the button.

Advantages: It lies very comfortably in the hand, the quality of the materials pleases, the display rotates, holds the charge well, the lens works, there is an auto mode, while it saves my wife, unfortunately my friends cannot tell about the quality of the shooting. for the first time in our house such a technique and we can only compare with the iPhone 10 and "frankly speaking at night the iPhone takes pictures better" - I take my words back))) after looking at the photo on my computer, but the camera seems to me to be more focused on video. it is unrealistic to shoot in 4k format, you can connect to all devices, in general, the spouse is happy and does not let me in to the equipment))) It is very light in weight, it takes up a minimum of space, in any case there were people in my environment who are fond of photography and appreciated the camera perfectly, of course there were a lot of tips on what to buy, but it all goes over 100 thousand, in any case, the brains of this fotik from a fotik for 140 thousand so I recommend it for purchase, I took it with a lens of 16-50 (it was included)

Disadvantages: there is no built-in stabilizer, but this can of course be solved by buying an appropriate lens, but as experts say, it will still not be the same, but these are the words of the sellers of the original store who sold me a protective glass on the LCD screen not on my camera, although I asked 4 times and in the end I had to go back and change to LM17

Comment: a chic device, you just need to learn how to use it and then five points, the lens is weak for night shooting, you need to spend another 100 thousand rubles, my wife is happy - I take my words back about night shooting after the photos were uploaded to the computer, I attached it to the commentary and repeat that they are made in "auto" mode and by a non-professional

Advantages: Tracking autofocus, eye focus, comfortable grip, large selection of lenses, 180-degree rotatable display.

Disadvantages: I did not find it for myself.

Comment: I thought for a long time which camera to choose. I chose between Fujix30 and Sony a6400. I made the final choice in the store, picking up two cameras. Fiji did not lie in the hand, very uncomfortable grip. Sonya lay down as if flying in. After being shown how eye focus and tracking focus work, I fell in love with this camera. I took it in a silver case, I really like this retro design. And also a 180-degree hinged display.

Advantages: Very fast. Ergonomic. Light. Excellent photo quality. Convenient USB charging - you can use power banks.

Disadvantages: Quite a complicated menu. For example, "silent shooting", just set to 0 sound volume and "beeps" are three different settings scattered around the menu.

Comment: Great camera. I replaced the old slt-57 with it. It is very comfortable in the hand. There are no serious comments.Clicked 4000 photos and was happy with the machine.

Advantages: The grip is very comfortable, it is a pleasure and confidence to hold in one hand. But you have to feel it yourself before buying. Detailing, autofocus, shooting assistance (horizons, zebra crossing, contours and zoom for manual focus), information content - everything pleases. A swivel screen - you can't do without it, because I often take off the dog from the ground, or over the head in a crowd. Moisture resistance tested by light rain. It is possible to use adapters to supply almost any manual or other lens. I liked the video only at 120 frames / sec.

Disadvantages: If ISO> 600 - trash. I shoot almost always at 100-200, because higher noise becomes noticeable. The application for transferring photos to the phone sometimes glitches - it does not connect the camera.

Comment: There is no need for matrix stabilization - either I set the shutter speed to less than 1/30, or - a tripod. When you turn off the camera, sometimes a shutter or sound similar to it is released. So far it has not been possible to find out the nature of this phenomenon.

Advantages: I have been filming for 3 years and I want to say the following: the camera is very reliable, the stabilization works perfectly, there is enough charge for one day of constant shooting. I shoot nature, architecture and I quite like it and it fits. Very compact and mobile.

Disadvantages: There are no shortcomings
