That must be one huge lens, what with having a .095 aperture!!!

If you could have any camera and any lens what would it be and why?

It's not a particular make or model, but the specs - large aperture, fast shooting, GPS, Wi-Fi, high ISO with low noise, weather sealing, physical toughness, ease of use. You know - Nikon's next model. :D

My dreams don't include cameras. I'd tell you what they do include, but there may be minors reading this.

Hasselblad or Mamiya the best quality - to eliminate excuse "equipment - pride in ownership and or see me I can afford "EGO!"
Please allow a bucket list to happen (I believe in Santa) :) :D :P :roll:
Oh yea Lens I believe the package is marked 1 each.

The dream camera and lens, as I have new dreams every night, lets start off easy, how about an Olympus E-PL5 with the two kit lenses, 14-42mm II R & 40-150 R. Yes, I'm easy to please. WHY, I've just about out grown my P&S, ready to get serious.

Best Upgrade path from P&S that I can think of, which is why I found and purchased an Olympus factory refurb e-PL5 with the 14-42 for $475 right after they first came out.

I've been shooting Olympus 4/3 DSLR and mirrorless since the Evolt 300 and E-1 originally came out.

Dream camera depends on what I am shooting, landscapes, portrait, action (sports), or several different forms of nature photography. During my emulsion days I had a Hassy 500CM that I liked, but I felt that it was a bit clumsy for me to carry when I would take a photo safari. I would like to play around with a Graflex, but for all around work it would be a 35 mm format and I am leaning towards an APS-c sensor like the 7D which I have and love. The 5D I haven't had the opportunity to get comfortable with so I would have to say that my 7D is my dream camera. I need more lenses though LOL. Well, my opinion on that subject was as clear as a muddy pond LOL.

PhaseOne 645DF+ with 100mm lens.
The resolving power of that camera is unbelievable.

If they run out of those, I'll have to settle for a Hassey MF, for the same reasons.

+1 and don't forget the IQ-180 digital back.
