IMHO, it is much better to buy the Fuji X100VI (40MP APS-C sensor) with the
two excellent adapter lenses that give you 28/35/50mm @ f2 (FF equivalent
focal lengths) and have money left over for a full, all expenses paid
holiday, anywhere in the world! ? After all, cameras are just tools, and
for amateurs, bang for the buck is of paramount consideration.

My son got his X100VI a month or so ago, but I have not been able to take
it out for a spin yet. Will do so shortly.

Cheers
Jayanand
