I have to admit that I'm not a prolific photographer but I like to have the gear for when the opportunity arises or the mood takes me. Over the years, I have got the kit that meets my requirements (almost) - a Canon 50D body and zoom lenses taking me from 10mm to 500mm, a decent flash and a bunch of accessories - tripod, filters, reflectors etc. and a Lumix FZ200 for when hauling the DSLR gear is not plausible.
What I would like, if I had the cash, would be a long zoom bridge camera with a decent size sensor - like the Lumix FZ1000 - for when I don't want to or can't take all my DSLR gear. The small sensor of the FZ200 has its limits.
If I had a substantial winfdall like a lottery win, I would probably also go for an up-to-date DSLR body and a really fast long prime (most of my bird photography is hampered by low light conditions). I would be very tempted by a reasonably compact and weather-resistant mirrorless system too, as a half-way between a bridge camera and a DSLR set-up.
