The Sony α6400 (model ILCE-6400) is a mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera in Sony's α lineup. It uses a 24.2-megapixel APS-C Exmor CMOS sensor paired with the BIONZ X image processor, offering a compact body with solid image quality suitable for enthusiasts and content creators. The camera uses Sony’s E-mount and accepts a wide range of lenses.

Autofocus and shooting performance are among the α6400’s defining features. It employs 425 phase-detection AF points and real-time Eye AF for humans and animals, along with real-time subject tracking for improved focus accuracy. It can shoot continuously at up to 11 frames per second with AF/AE tracking, and relies on a compact electronic viewfinder and tilting LCD for composing shots.

Video capabilities include 4K recording with full pixel readout and no pixel binning, delivering high-resolution footage with accurate detail. Full HD slow-motion up to high frame rates is supported, and the camera provides various picture profiles and gamma options for post-production workflows. The α6400 supports standard recording formats and does not include in-body image stabilization, relying instead on lens-based stabilization where available.

Design and handling emphasize portability and usability. The camera features a 3.0-inch tilting LCD touchscreen and a 0.39-inch electronic viewfinder. It has a compact magnesium alloy body and lacks weather sealing, making it more suited to controlled environments or careful use in challenging weather. Power is supplied by the NP-FW50 battery, and memory is read via SD/SDHC/SDXC cards. Connectivity includes Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth for remote control and file transfer, appealing to travelers, vloggers, and photographers seeking a versatile, all-purpose APS-C mirrorless option.
