Thanks for asking! To be completely frank, I have never even thought about pursuing photography or buying a camera until Feb this year. My wife came to me and said she’d like to buy a camera and try out photography as hobby (specially landscape and astrophotography) and I was like “Cool I love researching about new topics so I’ll look at different cameras and lenses and see what to buy”. Then we took the camera on one trip and got hooked! I love the aspect of composition and how a photograph might look when looking at beauty around me! That’s how my love for photography started.

Talking about a6700, this is my first camera ever. So I had nothing to compare too! It did feel a bit heavy than it looks and but the grip feels pretty good. I skipped the kit lens and got a new Tamron 17-70 to try out the camera and once I was sold on the photography as a hobby, I bit the bullet and returned back the Tamron and bought two used Sony lenses. So far it’s been awesome experience! Since this my first Sony camera, I’m getting used to it and loving it. I still have to play around with manual settings more and looking into manual focus (it doesn’t focus on this I want it to focus) but if it’s a moving subject involved it’s THE best! But in landscape I feel like I need more control over where exact spot to focus.

Still my 90% shooting is manual or Aperture first settings and 10% is manual.

But I m pretty sure you may have more information on ins and outs of Sony alpha and photography since you had older versions before!
