Blue tit photo

Two years ago I got my canon 500d from my mother. A few months later I bought Sigma 150-600mm C lens. Then after a year, I purchased an Olympus em1 mark ii and Olympus 100-400mm non PRO lens. Now I have noticed that my current kit often trails behind in focusing, and functions quite poorly in the dark, and the image quality wasn't the best. So the OM-1 came out and I thought wow I have to buy it. Then I thought: let's wait. Suddenly Canon announces R7, which seemed good on paper, but I am not sure about IQ. Recently I thought about the Nikon Z6ii(z9 is out of budget and so are Canon R3, R5 and R6 in a very tight pinch) and the mount is not an issue since sigma can convert it to any other. I know that autofocus is not the best, to say the least, but the image quality should probably counter that. I am also torn if I should just buy the Olympus 300 f4 lens and be happy. Please help me decide.
