This week Sony flew me to San Diego for the release of the Sony a6400 which is the new APS-C, entry level mirrorless camera in the Alpha lineup.
Pre-order yours at B&H
The big new features on this camera are a 180 degree flip screen, unlimited recording in video mode, an HLG picture profile and object tracking/AI integrated autofocus. This is an interesting release from Sony as it seems they have upgraded the a6300 and a6500 cameras specifically targeted at vlogging, but the autofocus system additions push this camera over the top for me. While they're not nearly as fast as the Sony a9, they do offer a new range of flexibility if you wish to track your subject in real time. The artificial intelligence algorithms intelligently track subjects with the ability to recognize color patterns in addition to face detection and eye detection. This opens up a considerable amount of accuracy in tracking subjects for things like sports.
Also interesting is the battery life is noticeably better on this camera compared to my experience with the Sony a6300 that I currently own.
Camrea features:
• 24 megapixel APS-C Exmor CMOS Sensor
• new BIONZ X Image processor
• Real-time Eye-AF and Real-Time Tracking
• Internal UHD 4k video with S-Log 3 and HLG picture profiles
• flip screen
• up to 11 fps shooting
