Macro Camera Advice

My issue is I am looking for something smaller and portable. I use Nikon FF, have lenses and flash guns etc including R1C1 with extra modules I use for commercial work and if you have used that you will know it is brilliant but at the same time cumbersome. I want a smaller, lighter option, camera body, lens, maybe a reflector and my Gitzo tripod. Something I can just pick up without packing maybe as suggested Micro Four Thirds
I have used Nikon Full frame to Nikon 1 cameras for the last 10 years (D810, D7200,D500, V3). But when lockdown started I decided I wanted a small system for fun.
I got an Olympus EM1 MIII, 60mm f2.8 macro and a Raynox 250 for macro. It is a delight to use and the built in handheld focus stacking means macro's without tripods. I recently added the Olympus macro twin flash which offers TTL flash for walk around macro's.
Well worth a look. Lovely camera.
