The problem with trying to use 5 diverse camera systems (like the above) is 
you quickly become proficient is using none of them. This is what I believe 
Mark is trying to convey. Perhaps before you 'pull the trigger' on a 6th 
diverse system you may want to try using just one camera and one lens for a 
while.
