I went from M4/3 to Sony RX10M4 for that reason, I'll be 81 in a couple of weeks. With it's 24-600mm lens (in FF), It's a bag-full of lenses in one body. Will I go back to M4/3 only time will tell.

I always thought that ball heads and the like were threaded 3/8" BSW not UNC. Both 16 TPI, but different tread form.

"If it aint broke, then don't fix it" Hello Jeff, I really cant see that you will gain anything, except extra/alternative gear at some cost and weight. Your M4/3 images of birds are some of the best out there with any gear. At 81 and still with long covid, my reason for going to Sony RX10M4...
