If this is limited to DSLRs only I would say the K-5 should be in this group. If you are going back to the film era the LX and probably the PZ-1P should be on the list.

And the MZ-S - probably the most professional of the 35mm film cameras but came just before digital took hold so didn't get taken up widely.

Definitely the PZ-1P and MZ-S. The PZ's introduced hyper program, MZ-S was the first model with the green hyper-program button we know to this day, and the MZ-S printed your exposure information on the film in between the sprocket holes above every frame. That was pretty cool.
