Thought: Switch from canon 6D to olympus em1 ii

I don't think this is a smart decision.

Olky will do fine in almost all circmstances, but indoor sports can be serious limiting when the hall is not very well lit. A FF sensor will allow you to go to ISO16000 where you get the same IQ as ISO6400 on the Oly. F2.8 and ISO6400 for action in a low light situation simply hampers you. You will need to go to ISO12800 at least in my experience or ISO16000. The Canon i will have usable IQ then, the Oly won't in my opinion.
