Should I buy the Sony A6700 for photography?

Yes — buy the Sony A6700 for photography if you want a compact APS-C camera that can handle portraits, landscapes, travel, and everyday shooting while also giving you strong hybrid video features. It’s especially compelling if you already own or want Sony E-mount lenses and prefer a smaller kit than full-frame.

I would not make it my first choice if you mainly shoot paid events, low-light indoor work, or want the shallowest depth of field and best high-ISO performance; a full-frame body may suit that better. Also check the current body/lens bundle price, because the value depends heavily on lens choices.
