You clearly have plenty of equipment and photo knowledge.  I'll just clarify for others that for low-light photography of still subjects, like food, you'll get the best improvement from better lighting and a steady camera and like @TicTac said, it's mostly personal preference.  In SLR days, I was a Nikon person.  Switched to Canon for digital. 

 

@blue_dolphin, would be interested to know what model Canon you use. Your food photos look great and, somehow, cheerful.

 

I think focus / steady camera is an issue for me. (Lighting as well.)

 

I don't mind my iPhone camera, except that I can't get a photo that looks like it was taken 100% from a head-on perspective (perpendicular). It's not that apparent in food photos, but if I'm taking a photo of a building that is symmetrical, I can see that the approach looks skewed.

 

Could be due to the lens being on the left side on the back of my phone.
