Modern day MFT cameras like Sony's A7 series have amazing low light (the older A7sii is still my favorite) for doing live views when attached to a telescope. it then can be used as your day-to-day camera at other times for multipurpose use. for DSOs, they are great. for solar system objects other than the moon, they're a little underwhelming since the actual object will be such a tiny percentage of the image.

one thing to remember when buying gear is to only go as big as you can carry/assemble by yourself. getting something that requires 2 people to lift/carry means you can't use it unless you can convince someone to go along with you, we let's face it, it's definitely a hobby that leans towards the soloist. for someone like you that can do it from home without having to travel every. single. time. might be a bit less of an issue. just general advice for others that might come along

the only regret i have in buying my gear is that i'm at least 4 hours to a class 2 site, and i no longer have a car of any type let alone one that fits all of my gear plus camping equipment.

Sony a7 series is full frame not MFT. You're not going to get nearly so good low light performance out of a MFT sensor. I think you meant mirrorless.

yes i did. in my head, MFT equates to the form factor vs sensor size. i need to stop doing that
