Honestly, Sony APS-C is dead. Most of the native APS-C lenses are mediocre and the FF alternatives are too expensive for an APS-C use case.

 

In the sub-FF league it's either Fuji or MFT in my opinion. 

 

MFT is not the place to for if your priority is shallow DoF. However, in terms of high quality you have quite some options in a compact package.

Fuji is pretty awesome and it's touching FF in quality. However, it's not the place to be if you prefer a compact size/low weight.

 

Regarding Fuji, you can still get a fairly compact kit as long as you don't need long lenses and enjoy prime lenses.

For instance, the following kit if very small while being very versatile:

• Fuji X-T10 or X-T20
  
• 18 f2
  
• 35 f1.4
  
• 50 f2
  

There is no equivalent in any other system. You can also throw a 23 f2 instead of 18 or 14 f2.8 if you like UWA (and don't mind the larger size).
