![]() ![]() The good folks at Fantasea have been generous enough to provide me with the α6400, 16–50mm f/3.5–5.6 (a 24–75mm full-frame equivalent standard kit lens) and housing along with a couple of handy wet lenses-the Fantasea-AOI UWL-09F wide-angle lens and the Fantasea-AOI UCL-900F +15 super macro lens-so I can see for myself what this nimble rig can do.

Sony didn’t start the mirrorless revolution, but they have become one of the industry’s leaders after producing the first full-frame mirrorless camera with an autofocus system in 2013-leaving the likes of Canon and Nikon playing catch-up.
