Due to your suggestions, I've ended up ordering R6 Mk II & RF24-70mm F2.8 for the start! I can always build up with additional lenses in the future.

And maaany accessories Thank you for your patience and help!

Big congrats! That’s a hugely capable combo you have there. Be aware that there’s a very substantial learning curve too! Lots to go through in the setup alone.

I've decided for this combo, as I have found a very welcoming, experienced community here. So I have a feeling, that I can trust your wisdom and I follow your advice. Thank you once more!

I’d also HIGHLY recommend DxO’s Photolab 6 for processing your RAWs. It’ll extend your low light (meaning indoor) capabilities even further.

I used to use Lightroom many years ago, but I am happy to try Photolab. Does it also have some kind of Photo Management as Lightroom?

Large windows do work great for some stuff. Get a LARGE folding reflector (the big rectangular ones work well), and a stand with an arm. This One will do the trick indoors (it’s small and light), but if you want something more substantial I also have This One . Watch for the kiddies tripping on the legs!

As I understand I should buy bought? I see some difficulties in the availability, especially in Europe. Maybe something this kind but from well-known company?

Have fun!

sure I will, but as you already mentioned, it will be a steep learning curve. But it's great that I have min. 2 months time to get accustomed
