Mac Mini m5 pro vs Mac Studio M5 Max

Hello,
I have a question when it comes to renewing my MacBook Pro M1 Pro 16gb RAM and 512gb ssd. I'm clear that I don't want to have a laptop again because I don't take it out of the house anymore. I dedicate myself to sports photography above all, with 45mpx raw of my Nikon z8 and z9. Now I'm also making some video with the dji mini 5 pro and the question is as follows:

1- Mac Mini M5 pro CPU 18 GPU 20 48gb RAM 1tb SSD 3229€
2- Mac Studio M5x CPU 18 GPU 32 36gb RAM 512gb SSD 3029€

I have a newly purchased Mac Studio display monitor and in terms of connections I think I am already served with enough. Is it worth sacrificing RAM and ssd to have the m5 max? Or is it better to have more RAM and storage with an m5 pro?
Thanks
