Dslr or video camera or mirrorless or iphone 7

Hi

Im looking to get a new camera however im looking to make videos much like video ive linked

I know I'll need a gimbal for fluidity etc

I just dont want to go overkill for what i need as the iphone 7 video camera including imovie would be ideal for youtube upload in good lighting?

I dont have a laptop either so that must be factored in to my budget

I was looking at a canon 5d mk iii however when adding lenses it becomes expensive which lense would be ideal for what I need?

Budget id say £3000 including a laptop or if I could edit from dslr sd card on a iphone that would be great

Thanks

P.s sorry if the link offends.

That video is relatively low quality and was shot on a $600 camera, I think you are being a bit overkill in budgeting £3k to achieve something similar to that, that said I don't see the iphone being able to compete with a 1" sensor, and trying to edit video on a phone is tedious beyond belief.

Thanks

Its the low light thats worrying me I thought a full frame dslr was the only way to achieve high iso values? Also the lense speed affects the amount of light? Which fast lense do I need that could record the content I'm wanting?

A canon 5d mkiii is kinda ok budget wise depending on lense, if I could possibly use it for other content blogging etc it should look professional,

Ive also heard I wont be able to zoom much so the auto/manual focus wont be troublesome???

Im not looking to edit much just to piece the work together, add music, maybe write text on screen exactly what imovie can do however a macbook pro might might be to expensive, windows imovie equivalent?

I mean if I should be looking at a £2000 video camera please let me know, however im a newb at post production so if its going to need a lot of colour balance changers etc I might be better on dslr route

Just want to make this as easy as possible.

Thanks again for any help
