More Accurate Autofocus Even In Low-light Situations
Thanks to advancements in the AF algorithm, the lower limit on the AF detection brightness range has been reduced to EV-213 when in AF-S mode. Whether you're shooting in dimly-lit environments or at night, you can rely on the Sony A6400 to deliver highly accurate autofocus performance.
AF in Focus Magnifier For Making Fine Adjustments
The Alpha 6400 comes with an AF in Focus Magnifier for capturing macro shots or any situation that demands inch-perfect autofocus. It provides a magnified view of the general area you want to focus on, which can then be finely adjusted to the exact point of focus in the viewfinder or using the LCD screen.
Easier Manual Focus with Improved Peaking Function
When using manual focus, the a6400''s peaking function color-highlights the most sharply focused section of the entire image area. The blue colour has been added to the display''s other peaking colours (red, yellow and white), resulting in improved visibility of the focus peak areas for delicate focusing when capturing portraits or macro shots.
Maintain Focus on Tracked Subjects With Real-Time Tracking
For precise tracking of fast-moving subjects, the Sony A6400''s improved subject motion tracker uses a newly developed subject recognition algorithm that analyses colour, pattern (brightness), subject distance (depth) and face/eye information to intelligently lock onto and track your subject.
Get Perfect Portraits Every Time With Enhanced Real-time Eye AF
The a6400 comes with the Enhanced Real-time Eye AF feature that detects and focuses on the eyes of your subjects when you half-press the shutter button. Users can also specify the left eye, right eye, or let the camera choose automatically, while the AF-C mode maintains a stable focus even when part of the subject''s face is hidden, backlit, or facing downward.

This powerful combination delivers exceptional image quality with a wide sensitivity range and excellent low-noise performance. Every detail, colour, and texture is beautifully reproduced, resulting in high-resolution images that truly stand out.
Enhanced Image Quality, Low Noise And A Wider ISO Range
The maximum standard ISO sensitivity in the a6400 has been increased to ISO 32000 (expandable to ISO 102400 for stills). The mirrorless camera also comes with improved imaging algorithms, detail reproduction technology, and area-division noise reduction to deliver more realistic textures, better detail in shadow areas, and more lifelike colours, including accurate human skin tones and natural plant colours.
The Newly Added 1:1 Aspect Ratio For Social Media
Alongside the 3:2 and 16:9 aspect (width-to-height) ratios, the Alpha 6400 also comes with the 1:1 aspect ratio used by social media platforms. Now, you can capture and share your moments on social media without the need for manual cropping after shooting.
Rich Tonal Gradation with 14-bit RAW Output
When shooting in RAW format, the 14-bit digital signals, converted from analogue in the image sensor, are processed through the advanced front-end LSI and BIONZ X for 16-bit processing before converting back to 14-bit RAW image output. The result? Smoother and more natural tonal gradation in your images.
Professional-grade 4K Movie Recording in high-bit-rate XAVC S format19
The Super 35mm format allows for full pixel readout, without pixel binning, enabling oversampling with approximately 2.4 times more information than needed for 4K (QFHD: 3840 x 2160). This oversampling adds up to the equivalent of 6K, giving your images more realistic depth.
