I am a streamer/content creator: Most of what I encounter in order is Sony, Canon, and sometimes time Lumix.
Sony has held the crown for the best auto-focusing system for a long time now which for content creators can be very important. Canon is also pretty good, but Sony really has gone all in making sure their system works really well for many scenarios.(People, animals, face and eye tracking.) Lumix's auto-focus system is passable and only if the lens itself works well with it.
Personally I use a mixture of Sony and Canon lenses on a Sony A7S III along with a Sony A7R IV. I used to have a Lumix S1H that I loved the image rendering, but buying lenses for L-Mount was difficult since it is such a new mount. I would love to use Canon exclusively since their button layouts are far superior to Sony's absolute mess.
