Weakness of the small sensor is high(er) ISO thanks to small photocells so if you don't need it, it is better not to use it (other thing is when you want to use it for some kind of concept).

So then well (over)dimensioned tripod is good solution every time. (for multi exposures or for full frame too).

Anyway the full frame is better to use on low ISO too. But better start is with some photoeditor (free is for example Gimp) and learn process of RAW files. Because full frame deserve to be well processed from RAW more than other.

Thank you!  This is generous and sound advice that you have offered me.  Eventually, I will get myself a camera that produces decent images in low light and learn the basics of post-processing.
