Look at the Fuji X-T20 with the 18-55 lens, I got this camera before we took the family to Disney and it was a pleasure to use.

This is not even your work, Elena Shumilova's technique is fantastic but it could be emulated with almost any good camera no matter what the brand.

I must agree the quality is superb but the pricing is not like apple and how many lenses do you really need? I have the short (18-55) zoom the long (55-200) zoom and one prime (XF 90mm f/2). My wife can even use my X-T20, all I do is flip a switch to Auto and hand the camera to her and she will never miss a shot. I am not promoting Fuji and I still use my old Nikon D700 with about 10 lenses in my studio, but as I get older and spend more time with grandkids and traveling Fuji is my choice and the videos are awesome.

The older fuji's yes but the new Fuji X-T20 color is great. The images taken are all JPG's with no retouching.

Shot Canon F1 Film in Korea for years but the old lenses did not work on new cameras so I changed to Nikon as there lenses did work on the new cameras.

Fuji has been around for a long time.

Do the research but don't limit your choices to just Nikon or Canon that are all manufactured in China or Thailand. I just got back from a 2 week Disney vacation and took my new Fuji and the camera was amazing and worked flawless. Always remember it's the eye of the photographer that makes the images dynamic not the camera.

I have been shooting the Fuji X-T20 for about 2 months and love this camera. I shoot the Fuji 18-55 short zoom for street photography and am very pleased with the results. The camera is small and might take some time to get use to it but it's a well thought out camera and worth a look.

Gene
Thanks for sharing your beautiful work, you must hall around a big zoom lens to get some of the shoots you have of the birds and other wildlife. Most of my images are taken underwater or of the grandkids and like you I need a large camera bag for underwater photography. Thanks again for sharing.

Gene 51 You obviously work to live on the other hand I love being retired and have a passion for art and design. I don't need to spend my life learning new software every year that calls for a new machine. When you buy a computer then you also need to buy the software that works on it. OS10.7.5 works for me and it's plenty fast if you know what you are doing. I went to thunder lizard seminars for years to learn what I know and it takes me no time at all with my old Mac to do any kind of design work and it should only take 500th of a second not 2 hours for a good photographer with a good eye. My 69 Mustang with it's upgrades will run circles around any new Mustang and it's made better also.

That sounds like a great deal but the machines don't seem to out live a mac. You get what you pay for, most of the time.

I'm a retired Graphic designer/photographer that worked for the military and the Boeing company for 40 years. For my home desk top computer I am using an old 2007 Mac Pro (because I can't afford a new one) with a few upgrades like usb 3, SSD HD 480, upgraded graphics card and more. 2X3 Dual core processor 16 GB RAM 2TB external HD for storage with a 4TB external backup and a 30" Hi res Samsung monitor with a Pantone huey™PRO color calibration system. I am running Lightroom 6 and have over 60 thousand Raw photos on this Machine and it runs like a champ and never had a crash or lost HD. My Mac Pro is dedicated to only LR 6 and Photoshop 6 that can do anything I need to do and do it fast. I don't use it for anything but post processing and retouching. A mac will last you many years longer that a Dell or HP take my word for it. Most designers and photographers will tell you the same. Can you tell I'm a long time Mac guy, 1986 was my first Mac SE and have had only one hard drive go bad in that time do to a boot camp virus running a Microsoft app on my Power Macintosh G4.
