Just for fun: If you were only allowed one camera and one lens to go on it, what would be your choice and why.
I already have it, Canon 6D with Canon 28-300 lens :-) I don't intend to change unless I go back to film and then I'll put the 28-300 on my film EOS Rebel.

Olympus OM-D Mark 5 II -- weatherproof, dustproof, good in the cold, 5-axis stabilization, lightweight, size, nicely priced
Olympus 14-150mm II -- also weatherproof, dustproof, good in the cold, excellent image quality, lightweight, nice size, no lens creep and a very workable focal range. Not the fastest glass, but i'm not averse to bumping up my ISO

Nice camera, I'm curious why you would restrict yourself to a 18mm lens.

Thanks. I wouldn't restrict myself to just one lens, other than in the spirit of the OP''s question. Playing along with that idea, 18mm f2 covers probably 75% of my needs.

You seem to have a unique style. Do you soot a lot of architecture? I carry my 16-35 with me whever I go but seldom use it. The 28mm end on my daily lens is pretty good for what I do.

Yes, I suppose a lot of it is architecture, in a way, cityscapes if you like, plus some scenery (landscapes? ) You can probably tell I've never really thought much about what categories my photos fall into. What do you like to shoot?

Nice lens. I went for the lighter option, albeit with less flexibility.

I see, yes your 18mm would be good for cityscapes. I want to do that but it is hard to do in South Korea due to the effort it takes to get to a point where one could setup for a cityscape and secondly the weather, it is heavily hazy here more often than not. Synchronizing a clear day and time to get to a good shooting point is hard to do for a hobbyist who is a workaholic :b

I shoot mostly events. Group luncheons. Group outings to tourist spots and visits to hospitals and stuff like that. Once in a while I get to shoot open markets and farm work and small factories.
