I was wondering if it would be possible (hypothetically) to fit a PC into a DSLR camera body, including a long range zoom lens. If it is possible, what would the parts list be? How much would it cost? Plus post weird computer builds.

This, essentially. You'd be limiting yourself severely by that small a size. You could also get some Intel Atom SBCs but those are insanely expensive.

They make these SD cards intended to augment your DSLR with wifi, and the firmware in those cards can be hacked to run Linux. See here: http://hackaday.com/2013/08/12/hacking-transcend-wifi-sd-cards/
Alternatively, it is entirely possible to find a DSLR whose firmware itself can be hacked to run Linux. Some probably already run Linux. The camera probably isn't much use after hacking unless someone writes some crazy drivers for the sensor.

I think that's the closest you can get but it's not gahnoo loonix, just custom firm ware.
