I agree.

If you still can't decide what camera to choose, find someone you know who has the one you are interested in. Take three/four cameras and test them. Compare the photos taken with different light and settings. That is the only way out, I suppose.

Sony is said to be the best, but I have not tried it myself. I heard, that nikon and canon have very poor kit lenses.

They are all good reliable makes, so it would boil down to features for money in the end.

Thank you for the link,
It gives answers to many of my questions.
"With superior autofocus in most models, mirrorless cameras provide the best results for most filmmakers" - this reason is very important to me. I want to make short videos from my travel material. Another question is what brand I should choose. Sony, Fuji, Nikon, Canon?

The difference in weight between a DSLR and a Mirrorless Camera is really minimal (a couple of ounces)!

Here is a good read on the for and against of DSLR's compared to Mirrorless Cameras:

After several years of dealing with weighty reflex cameras I' ve decided to get something smaller and more portable for travelling and work purposes. The most interesting for me are Fujifilm X-E2 and Sony Alpha A6000. Purchasing a new gear is always a controversial topic, so I decided to ask your opinion to weigh all pros and cons of mirrorless cameras.
