A short answer, your current kit would do me just fine, only thing missing would be a high grade point-n-shoot and a super tele like the 500 f4L II
As for an 'ultimate' kit, I don't really know as I've not had any significant time with top-of-the-line gear. Having never used Leica, Zeiss glass, nor any of the Mark II glass Canon has released, I'm at a loss for what would be 'best. Ultimately I'm nearly there already, mostly because of physical issues with grip and gear weight.
So here goes...first a high-end point-n-shoot like my G12 or the new G1XII.
Bodies
- 1 fast FPS Crop body; 1.3 or 1.6X; 7D or maybe a 1DIV...for anything action related.
- 1 FF body; 5D2/6D or 5D3; for city/landscapes, macro, portraits and other mostly static subjects.
- 1 film; one of my an EOS3s, for everything...
Lenses
- Smaller/lighter zooms, 17-40L, 24-70 or 24-105 f4 IS and 70-200 f4L IS
- Shorter Primes, 24 f2.8 IS, 35 f2 IS, 50 f1.4, 100L macro
- Longer Primes, 300 f4L, 400 f5.6L or 100-400L
- Super Teles, maybe the 500L II or the new 200-400L
Flash
- Update my older flash gear to to newer radio versions; 600RTs.
You can view my profile for my current gear list, as said I'm kinda close, there's just the longer glass and a FF body that are missing...I'm quite happy where I'm at today...sorta
That said, I could be most happy with 'just' a crop body and a small set of primes, something wide like a 24, the 100L Macro and 300, one flash, extension tubes and a 1.4x T/C and my G12...plus my 36yr old Domke F2, gotta have a nice/snazzy bag to carry things in...right

PS. No small children, animals or any other creatures were injured during this reply/fantasy, some bugs were shot earlier but were not terminated, they flew away in peace or very agitated, I couldn't tell due to a viewfinder blocking my peripheral vision
