I remember canon making a smaller t3i when the t4i was coming out. Looking for it now.
Edit: It's called the SL1
For $500, the Pentax K-50 body + 18-55mm WR lens + 50-200mm WR lens is one of the better bargains out there. It comes with the body + two lenses, and the entire kit is weather sealed (which may come in handy if you're planning on being outdoors a lot and the weather turns nasty).
If you're looking for something smaller, lighter, and still a DSLR, but lacks weather resistance and comes with 1 lens instead of two, the Canon SL1/100D + 18-55mm is another option.
Finally, if you want even smaller, there's mirrorless cameras which trade size and weight for worse battery life compared to DSLRs. Something like the Olympus E-PL7 + 14-42mm would be a decent start.
I have no issue finding it on Amazon
I got my husband a Canon Rebel SL-1 for Father's Day last year. We love it. It's good quality, but it was a lot less expensive than some of the other DSLRs out there. It functions just fine- we aren't professionals.

A Canon SL1.
I'm really happy with my SL1, I heard is the best one on that price range

If you prefer mirrorless, get Sony.

WHOA!
That's amazing ...
I have a few other examples of the kinds of pictures I have taken:
notice the last two I didn't use a 10x loupe at all, so there aren't close-up photos as much ...
This "Tamron F004 90mm F/2.8 Macro VC USD Lens" ($350) looks like it may work, right? I was looking at a Canon T3 ($190) or SL1 ($230)
I think you had recommended the Canon 50mm macro lens ($160) to be paired with the SL1 earlier in this thread, right?
Hrm ...
Seems like the cheapest option may be to go with the Canon EOS Rebel T3 + the Canon 50mm macro lens.
The external mic input is gonna be hard to find on a camera in that price range...let me think here...
The Canon Rebel SL1 is the only cam I can think of that will give you the features you want at that price point, but I'm sure there are others. https://www.amazon.com/Canon-Rebel-Digital-18-55mm-Lens/dp/B00BW6LY2Y
Things to keep in mind - DSLR's have a steep learning curve, the limited autofocus could make this a difficult camera to use for "walking around" style vlogs, and you're still gonna have to buy whatever external mic you want.
