I am off to Iceland at the end of the year. I have been looking to get a camera for a while and was wondering on people's thoughts as to what direction to head in. I like the idea of something like the Olympus om1 mkii but am a bit worried that a 43rd sensor will be too limited on light? Other than that thinking of a aspc (Sony 6700?) or possibly full frame (weight and cost of required lenses and issue?). Have around 3k in total to spend, happy to spend less. Really struggling with what to get!!
Iceland trip camera

In Iceland I am thinking mainly landscapes. Back home probably more wildlife. Not really much in the way of portraits. I am thinking at least a couple of decent lenses to cover wide and reach. Probably more zooms than primes just for space issues, but happy to consider primes. I think 43rd would suit this well. A tripod might be a push, it is not a photography holiday per se. I wonder if the ibis on the Olympus would help compensate against the light issue?
Locked in indecision at the moment. I don't think I want to lug full frame gear around which is why I had ruled that out in the past. The camera bodies are a decent size but if I want to do wildlife after thr trip the larger zooms are just too big. So I am focusing on Apsc or m43. Of the Apsc the sonys look well supported, as do the Fuji. I don't think canon has enough support with third party lenses. M43 seems to have some lovely glass and great body stabilisation, but is even more cropped and so less light. It is all very annoying
