Advice for full frame mirrorless

No.4093035 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Yes it's another gear thread, sorry guys. But you'll tell it to me like it is with no hype or shilling.

So I'm looking into buying into a full frame mirrorless system. I shoot seriously, but not professionally (I don't depend on it for my main income). I'm looking at used cameras in the 'enthusiast / low end professional' spectrum, so basically SontyA7(R/S)ii/iii, Nikon Z6i/ii, Canon EOS R. I'm hoping to get a used camera, and one or two decent primes for around 2000 USD.

I shoot mainly event photography at 'alternative events', very frequently wth poor or moody lighting, so low light performance and noise quality is important to me. I am a huge raw processing / color calibration geek, so I basically don't care at all about how images look SOOC.

Yes, I know that it's the photographer and not the gear and all that, but also I'm looking at spending quite a bit of money and buying into an ecosystem here so I'd like to consider my options carefully.

So are there any clear winners here, or clear losers to avoid?
