  • It has a tilty-flippy screen that flips slap bang into a hot-shoe-mounted mic but there's more to the a6400 than just a 'vlogging' camera.

      Add a little thick M3 tape between the screen and the mic, this will probably dampen the sound.

  • @PhilipKnopp
    @PhilipKnopp 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think the missing stepping stone is a metaphor for choosing camera equipment! You get out in the middle of the practice of photography, and you take pause...then you have to take a chance to keep going. And in the end you get bogged down (the mud...) but you have to keep going. The A6400 seems like a good choice for those of us using something like the A6000, which lacks the quick and sticky AF. If you have lenses with OSS then you can excuse the lack of IBIS. But I am just an amateur...without deep pockets! And the cage idea is brilliant!

    The mic slapping you in the face is so funny. You are combining humor and facts so damn well!
    I don't like the fact that when this came out so many people value the camera after it's vlogging capabilities. That's just wrong. Thanks for sharing more than other on this camera.
    For a person new to photography most videos just are so negative and basically tell you that you need IBIS and a flip screen, I bet it's really misleading to amateurs.
    Also I had to pause at 8:58 and wipe something up real quick.

    Love that it is a brilliant stills camera but would love anything longer than a 210mm E mount lens to use it for some entry level wildlife and sports. I have the 100-400 FE mount so I suppose could use that but love that on the A7iii. Anyone know if the will be releasing longer e-mount lenses anytime soon? Or is the rumour that they will eventually move all cameras to full frame more true?
