This man is the best Sony dealer I've ever seen.
Loya Lee agreed
Agree!!!!! Best video I have seen to explain! Now I know which I’m going with, I was pretty confused before.
@@AdaywithDestiny I Swear
I am a new DSLR owner of the last 8 months. I bought an entry-level Canon based on the Dual pixel autofocus. This man single-handedly has made me regret purchasing a Canon camera. 😊😊😊
H-h-hey m-m-man. You g g got some s s s Sony *twitches*
After two days of watching videos - this is the best comparative analysis on these cameras. Thank you!!
О! Никсель Пиксель тут
Can’t agree more. He nailed it.
После двух лет просмотра роликов о феминизме - твои самые конченные. Спасибо за то, что засоряешь людям головы и разобщаешь российское общество, которое и без того не очень сплоченное
Amazing!! Answers my question too! I’m going with A6400
🙏👌👌👌
What a great review! Clearer and less cluttered than other reviews out there. Really appreciate the comprehensive info.
This is by far the cleanest review i’ve seen about sony cameras
This review is INSANELY helpful. Seeing everything laid out and all the differences clearly explained is a lifesaver. I didn't even know I needed the a6400 till I saw this. Thanks for taking the time to make this!
I had the same thought.
I was so confused but Now I know what I wanted
Going for a6400 trusting him.
Such a well put together video. Eloquent, informative and straight to the point. No unnecessary humour, no gimmicks, no ridiculous cut shots with obnoxious music, no CAPITAL LETTER CLICKBAIT TITLE - just exactly what a buyers guide/review video should be. Well done sir. Subbed.
Thank you so so much for not ruining this review with background music. Your audio is pristine. Fabulous review!
Thank you for helping me with this decision. It's so tough to know where is the best place to put your money with a camera. I thought the 6400 would be very good and this video just swayed it for me :) thanks
also congrats on 100k subs!
Perhaps the most well made videos I've ever seen on TH-cam. Well organized, structured and informative comparison video. Obviously you put a lot of thought and preparation into this, all for your viewer's benefit!
Thinking of switching over to Sony after using the canon 70d for my YT channel for the last 2 years. Thanks for explaining this.
Same
Stay on the 70D! If using for 4K recording - forget it! They overheat like crazy!
I can't decide which to go to. I'm sick of my Canon 600D/t3i not having autofocus for video. Makes my TH-cam videos difficult to shoot.
@@benbullettmortlock Get the 70D!
@@benbullettmortlock Do not get a 70D. I just had an 80D for over a year, and while it was a phenomenal camera it left me wanting much more. You’ll wish you had 120fps and 4K/24fps.
They all have 1 thing in common: I can't afford either one of them.
:D I was thinking the same
“Either” is used when there’s only 2 options; Even then you should say neither. The word you should have used was any.
It took me 1 month to have enough to buy the a6600 😂😂
@@Frectic_Filmz can i ask you whats the difference between A 6400 and alpha A 6400 ?? Whats alpha means ?
@@KemetEG i think same as me..
Finally I found a comprehensive guide comparing these cameras. Great work!
Excellent breakdown, made my buying decision very easy. Thank you 👊🏼
Which one did you go for and how’s the experience?
Which one?
The content presentation here was top quality. I really enjoyed watching/listening. You made some fantastic points that buyers should consider. Very concise. Thank you for doing this!
I'm still using a6000 in 2020. It takes stunning photos and that's all what matters. If it breaks or if I lose it, I can easily afford a replacement without much thought. To me, that's a big plus compared to other models.
What about video capabilities, ai am looking for one for my mother's TH-cam channel & I really want to make quality comparable to sony a6400
@@theanalyst9629 ZV-E10.
I mean that's important if money is an issue for you. A6000 is probably the lowest quality camera you can buy IMO.
Could you message me your settings? I cant seem to not get grain in the photos. Im guessing I have to get a better lens?
Finally considering upgrading my a6000 to a 6500 for the IBIS; that little a6000 served me well for YEARS and took some amazing pics
This was so informative. I know what I'm going to buy and before this video I was basically lost. Thank you!
Best Sony APSC reivew channel! You own it all!
Agreed
That's also a really good pun lol

Best review ive seen. Simple clear and very helpful to someone like me who has no idea which camera to buy.
Best review out there on this series. Thanks a lot!
WOW, thank you for posting this! I have wanted a decent camera my entire life, and finally ordered an A6500. It was delivered last Monday, but something told me not to open the box. A few days later, I watched this video. Thanks to you, I was able to return the A6500 and order an A6400. I am so excited!! Great content, production, and excellent presentation. Thank you!!! AA++
Great buyers guide! Best Sony alpha channel out there buddy!
Absolutely phenomenal video. Answered all of my questions. Great content.
Of all the videos out there, yours was the absolute most helpful! Super detailed and you didn't run on and on about nonsense. Love it!
This is probably the most informative comparison video I’ve seen so far 🔥
Yesterday I went to bed when you had 99k, congratulations! Now you have over 100k!!!
As always. Fantastic info. You are literally THE Sony APSC guy
Just bought an a6400 and Sony 24mm 1.4. Sooooool excited! Thank you for what you do.
Hey, Do you do any low light photography?
Excellent video, extremely well explained, thank you so much. I actually thought the a6500 was the latest product and the pricing was confusing the hell out of me. Thanks again for this excellent video!
Thank you, I’ve had my eye on the A6000 for a while, so it’s helps having a review on the other ones in that line.
Wow enjoyed the complete review! I was although waiting for such a comparison!
Thank you for this video!
Thank you, Arthur.... I'm a happy A6000 owner. I just bought it two weeks ago (Jan 2020) at a discount for $470, a decent price in Jakarta though considering all the taxes and whatnot. I'm using the camera just for the amateurish stuff like documenting family activities. A really great 5 yo camera....
Great review, it answered a ton of my questions...
Hey congratulations on hitting 100k subs...
really well deserved your channel is by far one of the best Sony channels specialising in the a6XXX series of cameras
An excellent piece Arthur, clear and comprehensive, cheers!
One of the best reviews so far!!! Awesome Man!! Great Work!!
exactly what I needed now.... to decide on these sony lineup
Massive guide! I'm gonna switch to Sony and now I am crystal clear what I want.
One of the best reviews I have ever seen, not just for cameras but for anything
This was probably the best comparison video ever!!! Thank you so much!!! Please make moreeee
I have the A6000 its ok after this many years. Quality is enough for me.But the 6300 is the perfect choice for me.
Does A6000 has a port for a microphone/ audio ?
Abdur Rafay they don’t
I gave you a like before to watch the video !!! You're one of the best ! Luca from Italy
finally someone helped me make a decision for my future camera for youtube content and my business. Thank you so much. We'll look at your other content right away. liked and sub. love from France
0:03 drops the cameras*
arthur: well guys that's it for this video hope u guys enjoyed the video and ill catch u guys next time
your review just made me clear and fully aware about sony apsc a6xxx line up.. very clear and informative.. thumbs up!
This video really removed my doubts and I am definitely getting the a6400! Thanks for this video!
I feel the same way. I'm looking forward to buying my first camera this coming week!
Omg! I am also buying my first camera next week :) I am convinced with buying the a6400 :))
But it lacks ois
@@DavidMusic5 most of the Sony and Sigma lenses are stabilized. Unless you plan to use some vintage or adapted lenses in body stabilization should not matter imho.
Gabriel Alejandro if interested i have Sony a6300 Mirrorless Camera with the following:
kit lens Sony 16-50
Sony lens 55-210mm
5 batteries plus charger
small rig cage
meike battery grip
camera bag
excellent for videography and photography. $850
wow a youtube review that was packed full of substance and only the second video i looked at. thank you for the recommendations
Wow, this is a really comprehensive video! Thanks for comparing these. I've been looking into getting a different camera and thought of Sony. I love that all the lens' can switch between each camera!! That's amazing.
I use a5100's for my content creation, the upgrade path for me would definitely be an a6400. I want the tilt screen and touch focus ...I've become used to those features on my a5100's. Enjoyed this video, its nice to see the range Sony offers compared.
That´s a real good comparison with recommendations, - thanks
great guide as usual Arthur and congrats on 1 million views!
I'm looking for my first camera and this review is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!
thanks a lot, realy it's too hard find videos like this and you answer all of my qustions with this models.
This Guy is Master of Sony System. Love your videos bro
When i first saw your video you had 15k subscribers, You deserved much more and eventually you crossed 100k mark.
thank you fot reviewing sony camera ... compering between them what to buy, what not to buy. it was amazing to listen and i hv clearly know about all sony camera that u hv explained it...
Great and thorough review, incredibly helpful, good job, and thanks!
I decided not to go down the A7 route because I love the look and form factor of the A6000 range. When I picked up the A6000 and had a play in the shop I was smitten.I come from full from Canon DSLR’s and so as I travel a lot my 2 A6300’s travel everywhere with me. Great comparison videos and all cameras in the range are fantastic.
Hey there! What did you think about the transition from DSLR to Mirrorless?
That's what I think - why are so many mirrorless cameras designed like dwarfed SLRs. Very much in favor of the boxy Leica shape, particularly the metal bodies
Once again, Excellent video. You always make clear well recearched informitive videos. Thanks ( I have a a6300 + A7Riii )
Really helpful info covering the whole A6000 product line. Excellent presentation 👍
One of the best reviews I have ever seen. Keep it up!
I'm gonna buy A6400 because of this buying guide. Thanks
I'm considering this great video as a reference!!!
For real, thank you for this one! 😊
One of the best video I have seen. Many people out there are still confused of sony apsc choice. You just nailed it.
Thank you for this insightful compilation. Can't thank enough. Will really help me in decision making. Thank you again. Keep up the good work.
Great and very objective review! I ended up buying the a6500 because I used to have an NEX-5N which I used with many vintage lenses and the IBIS feature on the a6500 made it a no-brainer. I also do a lot of Formula 1 photography, so the buffer was a big plus. If Sony made a 6400 with a bigger buffer and IBIS I would have bought it in an instant, but I guess that may be an a6600 some time soon.. One last killer feature for me was getting a bundle on Amazon that included the excellent 18-135mm lens at a bargain price which was great for a recent trip of a lifetime to South America holiday ... I couldn't afford to carry all the vintage lenses on that trip, but that one lense proved pretty capable for all my needs.
Dang wish I had all those to compare! haha. As always, nicely done man!
hikyletaggart the two best sony a6000 supporters
You are great too!
You did an A+ job. Everything I needed to know. Thank you. Jim.
I‘m planning to buy my first ever camera soon and your video was the most helpful one I have seen so far! Thank you 😊
Thank you for another informative video. I bought a A6000 as well as a 1.8/35 prime lens last year after watching your videos, and I really enjoy the quality of the pictures.
YEAH I EVE SAW THAT VIDEO TO BUY BUY a6300 BUT HAVENT BUYED... NOW IM GONNA BUY a6400 THANK U TECHMAFIA FOR THE INFO
I literally did the same thing. Very happy with that decision :)
Awesome review Arthur! Thank you thank you! Will you do a new video comparing to the new 6100 and 6600?
This review/comparison is so good! Kudos and thanks!
Thank you for taking the time to provide great information on why you would pick a camera the good and the bad bits. Help many of us...
TH-cam University is awesome. Thanks for all your breakdown videos. And thanks for changing your name. Technology Mafia didn't fit you AT ALL. Keep up the great work
I was set on getting one of Canon's 6d's but my friend told me to check out the Sony A600 series. I can say without a doubt you've convinced me to get an A6400. Great breakdown of the pros and cons and why I would pick one over the other all while factoring in our budget. I was set on each one until you moved to the next step up lol
Amazing review, the best (most comprehensive and concise) I ever seen for any camera. Thanks!
The most complete review channel I've seen definitely subscribing
Thank you so much! I just started with my TH-cam Channel and I was in between the a6000 and a6500 but I'm definitely gonna get the a6400 thank you so much I subbed!
Hey man, I’m wondering if u got the a6400, if so can u please give an update on how’s it working for u and is it worth it ? Thanks 🙏🏼
@@ismaildaoudi5556 it is amazing! I love it so much! Paired with the right lenses it is worth it 100% check out my latest video on my channel the one with the auto show, that's recorded with the a6400
You convinced me on the 6400 a week ago. I bought it yesterday. I love it.
how much was it?
@@aditiaarianugraha3191 I paid 960 USD with the kit lens. I also got 3 years of insurance coverage against drops and spills for like an extra 130 USD.
@Wilhelm Sautner I got the 16-50 mm kit lens. So far I like it. Some shots can look super cinematic and just last night I took some really nice night time sky shots. For what it is it's a fantastic lens.
A great Video, again! You're Sony Reviews are the best I know! Thank you very much for this!!
This video helped so much! Thank you, Arthur. Subbed.
I bought my a6000 2 years ago and still love it. I have never felt the need to upgrade at all! It is a great camera for beginners!
Would you prefer it over the nikon d5600. If yes then why?
I found it is actually has much better for astrophotography than the a6300
@@477goku To be honest, I have never used a Nikon d5600. I am sure that it is a great camera but I can tell you that sony sensors are great if you are looking for sharpness in your photos.

Arthur do you mind finding out how many AF points the A6000 has now with a more recent firmware update to improve it?
This was an amazingly detailed video thanks so much‼️🙏🏾
Thank you so much for this video. Trying to start out and this was by far the most detailed and understandable video!
Thank you so much for the review. I am a beginner looking to get my first camera. I have just made up my mind to get the a6400!!
Before I will go to bed I want to congratulate you for 💯 k subscribers, because I guess tomorrow is the great day. Thank you so much for all the super intersting videos in the last years!
Excellent job, Arthur. Thank you for your reviews and suggestions, I don't think it would be possible to do a better job of it.
man I've been looking so badly for a camera which can record unlimited. Thank you very much! I'm gonna get the 6400 :)
You have just convinced me to buy the A6400 :)
I will be buying it with the 16-50mm kitt lens but will be also buying the Sigma 16mm F1.4 lens as well.
I'm a beginner, but I plan on using this mostly for landscapes as hiking is my passion, so figured the Sigma is a much welcome addition.
Thanks for the great comparison!
lol same
Thanks for sharing your Sony experience with us. The best review, the greatest. Thanks for your efforts and good continuation. Sub + 👍
Absolutely the Best Informational-Clear-Comparison Video I have ever seen. Great Job...and thanks...
You earned a subscriber with this one. Really great work there brother. You really took your time to go through it all. The TH-cam beginners association extends their regards. cheers!!
Damn, what a great comparison. Thank you!
I got the a6500 two weeks ago and wasn't disappointed at all. Trust me, the Ibis really helps, specially if you use a zoom lens like the 18-135. Also, I don't miss the flippy screen as i don't really plan on using this camera for vlogging. Here is a short clip I made the first time I used it:
th-cam.com/video/XvfzMV55jzg/w-d-xo.html
Do you know how long do yours go for recording? My a6000 got exhausted for less than two hours but I’m really looking for longer recording time.
Oh no, now there's a 6600, im really confused!😮😮😮😮😮
