Just my 2 cents.

I first had orginal M, then M3 and then upgraded M6. While the M3 already black-out free shooting and better AF than M, the M6 was a good step up in all categorys but built quality. The M3 felt more rugged but this was of no importance for me.

Like you, I am a hobby photographer trying out things to improve the versatility of my gear. Usually I buy used at "bargain" prices to keep cost at a minimum and sell what I don't like.

I propose that you look for a used M6 Mk1 with a used 18-150mm as starter.

Using a TC is probably not really good with the relatively slow EF-M lenses and sounds interesting only on paper. Wildlife coverage is the weak spot of the EF-M-line.

M6 was also on the radar but quite pricey where I am at, even the Mark 1 almost retails slightly lower than a new Sony ZV-E10 (body only).
