does this cam+lens set even make sense?

Massive dilemma

I want to buy one of the sets for everyday use .

I shot video blog in a studio for courses and social content .

And occasional studio shots of my family or outdoors photos or portraits of family .

I am thinking between the two cameras and two lenses

Sony a7cii + Sony 20-70 F4 to keep the size compact and small

Sony A7IV + Sigma 24-70 DN II ART F2.8 to keep the balance in size and lens

I am usually never use wide or low focal length .

I don’t like how faces look like on small focal length

I often don’t go below 35mm

I do like shallow depth of field , but not too much .

I was us g before Sony A7SII + Tamroon 28-75 F2.8 was enough .

I do care about sharpness and image quality for photo and video (blogging and podcasts)

Questions

Does A7CII really overheat with long videos or this was fixed already ? I don’t use the view finder anyway and I don’t need the 2 card slots . The only reason I was looking at the A7IV is due to posts of overheating for 1+ hour recording .

I will have zoom calls with camera on as webcam for 2-3 hours for sure

Does sigma is too big for A7CII that it feels weird and gigantic ?

Where I live there is no option to go to shop to try , I’m ordering online blindly

I had A7SII before with tamroon 28-75 it was OK size

I was thinking of going smaller , but it not a must .

Any opinions ?

Thanks !!!
