78 out of 100 high confidence 140 reviews
The Sony a6400 is widely praised for its excellent autofocus, compact size, and impressive image quality, making it a strong choice for travel and vlogging. However, several users report reliability issues such as a flip screen malfunction and an incompatible battery error, along with the lack of in-body image stabilization (IBIS) and a sometimes confusing menu system. While many find it a great value, especially with the kit lens, others feel the price is high for an older model and note that battery life is mediocre.
