Hey guys
Would like to hear your views on the choices that I have for video equipment that I have selected in my shortlist. I want to invest in something that I will shoot some youtube videos with at home for my daughter's youtube channel. I am aiming for 4K capabilities
I am very new to the video scene and would like all the advice I can get. I have done a lot of photography but not as much video, not invested in anything for video before.
The videos so far are OK for starting out, but I know I can do a lot better. I used a mix of mobile phones and a Canon 6D. I really want to improve the videos, post production and editing capabilities.
So far, I have selected the following 4k cameras.
Some more questions for the experts.
Thanks and much appreciated.

So far, I have selected the following 4k cameras.
- Blackmagic Cinema EF mount 4K camera (plan to use my 24-70 2.8 on it, or could consider a samyang lens)
- Panasonic GH4 with a couple of MFT lenses
- Sony A7R II already have a 24-70 F4 E mount lens but can also use EF lenses with metabones
Some more questions for the experts.
- Please suggest which editing suite is the best and easiest to handle 4k footage in pro res or raw (for the blackmagic stuff)
- Please suggest what lighting equipment and backdrops I should consider.
- Which microphone setup should I consider?
Thanks and much appreciated.
