Lightning-Fast AF

Reliable AF for great action shots

The camera's innovative AF quickly and reliably detects the position of the subject and then tracks the subject's motion, keeping it in sharp focus.

Fast continuous shooting with AF/AE at up to 11fps

Never miss a moment of the action thanks to fast internal processing and high-capacity buffer memory. Fire off shots at up to 11fps with after-view or 8fps for live-view, with minimal display lag, and take up to around 116 shots in JPEG (Standard) or 46 shots in compressed RAW format in one continuous burst.

Silent continuous shooting at up to 8fps

When your shoot calls for absolute quiet, such as when you're photographing a live performance, silent shooting with no shutter noise allows shooting at up to 8fps6 with AF/AE tracking, even in AF-C mode, with Real-time Eye AF or with Real-time Tracking, expanding your range of shooting options.

Real-Time Eye AF, Real-Time Tracking

Smart subject-tracking

Newly adopted AI-based subject recognition technology processes a vast amount of data to detect and track even rapidly moving subjects.

Sophisticated eye recognition and tracking

• Accurate eye recognition

  Enhanced Real-time Eye AF7 reliably recognizes human faces and focuses precisely on a person's eyes. There's no need for special settings—just press the shutter button.
   

• Persistent eye tracking

  When AF-C is set, Real-time Eye AF7 maintains a stable focus on a moving subject even when part of the face is hidden, the face is backlit or the subject is facing downward. 
   

• Choose your subject's left eye or right eye

  Now you can choose Left Eye, Right Eye or Auto from the menu in advance, leaving you free to pay more attention to composition. These selections can be assigned to custom buttons, allowing you to quickly toggle between choices while mid-shoot.

Persistent tracking for subjects on the move

Real-time Tracking reliably maintains focus

For sporting events and other situations where your subjects are moving quickly, keeping them in constant focus can make all the difference between catching an important, dramatic moment or missing it.

• A new subject-recognition algorithm holds onto moving subjects

  A newly developed subject recognition algorithm processes spatial information based on colour, subject distance (depth), pattern (brightness), and face and eye information at high speed in real time.
   

• Seamless transitions from body to face and eye tracking

  When shooting a distant person in motion, the tracking system captures the whole body, and the focus area will seamlessly change between the face and the eyes according to the condition of the subject. 
   

• Simply touch and track

  Once Touch Tracking is set in the menu, select your subject simply by touching the monitor. For either stills or movies, the camera will begin to auto-track the subject.

Incredible Image Quality

Enjoy beautiful, remarkably detailed images

Thanks to the large sensor and the latest image-processing engine, you can shoot whatever you encounter in your everyday life, with beautifully crisp and clear images, and natural colours even in low-light settings.

A 24.2-megapixel sensor plus enhanced image-processing engine

The APS-C sensor features copper wiring and enhanced circuit processing that aid in boosting light collection efficiency. In conjunction with the image-processing engine, this helps achieve superior image resolution and more natural depiction of textures.

Cleaner images even in dim light

Improved noise suppression has led to cleaner image quality, even in dark scenes where high-sensitivity shooting is required. The native ISO sensitivity has increased to a maximum ISO 32000 (with expanded ISO sensitivity at a maximum ISO 102400 for stills). Noise reduction is particularly effective in the frequently used medium-to-high sensitivity range.

Natural-looking images that match what you see

Image-processing algorithms inherited from full-frame cameras have led the way to more lifelike colour reproduction. Human skin tones look more natural, and reproduction of plant colours has also been improved.

4K Movies and Pro-Level Features

Creative movie production

From full-pixel readout without pixel binning enabling high-resolution 4K movie recording to HDR (HLG)2 and S-Log/S-Gamut10 options and Slow and Quick Motion recording11, the α6400 is loaded with advanced capabilities to support your movie-making creativity.

• High-resolution 4K recording

  Super 35 mm format recording with 2.4x12 oversampling results in 4K movies (QFHD: 3840 x 2160) with extraordinary image quality.
   

• Fast Hybrid AF for movies

  Smooth, steady focus is in your control with high-performance AF tracking.
   

• S-Log and HLG

  The camera provides a variety of options for picture profiles, including S-Log and HDR (HLG)

Take advantage of various movie functions

Movies in slow motion (up to 5x) and quick motion (up to 60x)11 can be recorded in the camera, without post-processing on a PC. Alternatively, 120fps high-speed shooting1 of Full HD video can be used to create high-quality slow-motion footage in post-production. Proxy movie recording allows easier editing and previewing, and Photo Capture lets you extract stills from recorded movies.

Vlog with useful features

If you're shooting vlogs, the 180-degree tiltable LCD monitor is useful for framing your own shots. For sound recording, in addition to the external microphone jack there is also an optional XLR adapter (available separately) to facilitate the use of pro-level microphones to give you better audio quality.

Smart Operability

A high-resolution LCD monitor with handy touch-screen functions

The 3.0-type, 180-degree tiltable LCD screen does more than just display the scene in front of you—it gives you quick control over a number of the camera's functions, with a variety of intuitive touch operations.

Set up your camera just the way you like

An array of customization features, inherited from full-frame models, gives you greater flexibility and control over how your camera operates.

• Customized buttons put frequent operations at your fingertips

  Each of the camera's eight keys and controls can be assigned to any of 89 functions and operations, with different operations depending on whether you're shooting still images or movies, or in replay mode.
   

• My Menu and My Dial features put you in control

  My Dial lets you assign frequently used functions to the control dial and control wheel for faster access when you're shooting. My Menu allows registration of up to 30 different menu items for quick access to menu items you use often.
   

• Visualized setup screen for customization

  On the custom settings screen, an illustration showing the camera's operable components shows you at a glance which button or switch you're assigning, and when you're setting up the function menu you can view the structure of the actual function screen.
