Am I ready to buy to buy a real camera now ?

bro, where do you live? Those nature pictures are beautiful. Regarding camera, if you're buying second hand, then A7III + 35mm 1.8 is great start

Do I have the eye to go pro?

In all honesty, these are the kind of average iPhone photos anyone could get from a good seat at a big arena-size event. They don't tell us anything, and they look good because the lighting/pyro is good. Everyone's seen these shots a million times. THAT SAID (sorry for being harsh), get that Sony a7

Is this a good deal and good starter camera?

Honestly for $700 I would skip that and get something mirrorless. Camera gear is something I think is wise to buy used, because when it's time to upgrade, you don't lose your ass. For your purposes, especially the low light activities, I'd say grab a Sony A7 ii ($500-700ish) or A7 iii body ($700-$10

I have the money for a full frame camera for the first time since having kids. I start looking at the Z5ii and R10 and then the lenses and realize I don't want to spend almost $4,000 on a camera and lens. Does anyone also feel fine with M43 but get scared away with prices on FF?

I had a FF Sony kit and an M43 kit for the longest time. A7III for pretty much everything that wasn’t wildlife, EM1 MK3 for wildlife. On a whim, I picked up a cheap used Lumix 14-140mm mkII off of facebook and took just the Olympus with me for a trip. When I came home and went through my pics, I dum

A fair battle i'd say.

/uj €1149 for an a6400 body is crazy, you can buy a used a7iii with a lens for that money

Ouch there definitely is some people who dont like m43😅

On the topic of "Value for the money is not a reason anymore to get into m43": totally agree. My first camera was the Nikon D5300 DSLR (aps-c). Kit lens sucked, so I quickly added the Nikon 35mm F/1.8.This setup cost me in total €725 back in 2016. As a student, this was a huge purchase.However, the

Are Olympus PRO lenses better than FF third party ones?

The premium M43 glass, Olympus Pro line and Leica-branded Pansonic lenses, are pretty good overall, and were some of the first to show what you could really do with mirrorless lens design. Modern full-frame lenses have eaten into a lot of what was only possible in M43 a decade ago. The Olympus 12-10

Genuinely impressed with my om5ii Vs a7iii photos.

Part of the problem is you didn't list focal length, ISO, shutter speed, etc., nor did you say how much of a crop each of those images is. Also the a7 III is six years older than the OM-5 II, so that's not the fairest comparison.

Worth paying 1200$ for Sony Alpha a7 III Camera just body only

For $89 more you can buy one with an almost identical shutter count, but with 6 months warranty and a no quibble return https://www.mpb.com/en-us/product/sony-alpha-a7-iii/sku-3522445 Keep your eyes peeled tomorrow and you might even be able to buy a brand new A7III for very close to the same price

What camera does Mark use?

Mark uses a Sony A7iii mirrorless full frame camera. Its quite overkill and not cheap but it makes sense for someone who does it as their full time job. I'd recommend starting with something a little cheaper and easier to use to start. Personally I use a Sony a6000 that I got for pretty cheap on eba
