Video editing software wise I recommend Davinci Resolve. It's free theres plenty of youtube tutorials on how to use it and it's comparable to sony vegas and premiere pro, there's a lot of room for growth in it, as in you can just do really simple edits but if you want to get adventurous down the line with vfx and stuff it will do all that too.

Which camera is gonna come down to the budget your working with. Personally I find that the audio is just as if not more important than the actual image quality (up to a point ofc), so which ever camera you get I would look to make sure it has a mic input or look into getting an external audio recorder and match them up when you go to editing (doing a loud clap will help you match them because there will be a big spike in the audio wave).

If your just starting and not looking to upgrade specific parts of your equipment then what you already have would be the best place to start. (I still record on my phone (a OnePlus 7t) and record the audio externally as it dosnt have an input for my 3.5mm mic, I needed to get a new phone at around the same time I was looking for a new camera and the phone gave a higher resolution at a higher frame rate than anyu of the cameras I could find without spending almost double what the phone cost me.)

Sony a6400 plus Rode Micro mic, and Adobe Premiere Pro is what I use and after almost 7 years of trying stuff, this is the best camera I've had for my needs and budget.

I edit with Windows Moviemaker because my computer is a Windows 8 from 2013 and still has it. I don't do anything fancier than trim the ends, cut bloopers, and add a watermark and a title card with my Twitter & email, so that's all I need.
