Moving to Sony - any views on A6400 w\24mm f/1.8 ZA?

Now then!

long time panny GF1 & 20mm f1.7 user (now sadly on palliative care) and short but unpleasant stint with a canon 77D...

I’m researching my next all rounder and am thinking of the A6400 with the 18-135 kit, and an additional 24mm F1.8 ZA Carl Zeiss Sonar.  In all honest, it looks like the least imperfect option - the least amount of compromises.

First question - does anyone have any mundane -, factory settings, pop the 24mm and take pictures of nothing in particular OOC jpegs they would be willing to share? I’d normally head to a camera shop with a memory card and have a play.  CV-19’d out of that!

Second question - any thoughts? I loved my mirrorless Panasonic, but hated the Canon DLSR.  Just didn’t like the colours, the lenses, the bulk.  I may have had a faulty model?!  Maybe!

I hated how every shot felt like it was a mammoth technical challenge, whereas my panny - was more of a point and shoot (on ap/exp priority).  But was very capable of being used technically when I wanted to.

Any views/pitfalls/gotchyas/warnings from a6400 users?

Cheers
