You can get cheap consumer cameras now with pretty absurd zooms. The $600 Nikon P900 [1] has an 83x optical zoom lens, giving it the 35mm-equivalent focal length of 24-2000mm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SC_2yD6wKk.
It's shockingly good for what it is, which is why the camera was sold out for six months and still commands pretty much its original retail price nearly a year after release.
Its big weakness is autofocus speed (making it useless for birders, etc.)
In my experience the autofocus speed in daylight is fine and it's especially good at focusing on what you want it to focus on, so it's great for birders. The problem is noise-reduction i.e. image quality. Do a bit of pixel peeping and it begins to look like a watercolor painting.
I was lucky enough to get one the day it was released early last year. Fun toy, and great for travel/sightseeing where you often can't use your feet as a zoom, but not even close to 1" type sensor quality let alone SLR.
Saving my pennies for a Sony RX10 III 24-600mm equiv superzoom, thought it's roughly 3 times the price of the P900. Good review here: https://youtu.be/Ad1JDfmyNxI
Not even close to a DSLR. It uses a small compact-style sensor (6.17 x 4.55mm), which is about 14 times smaller than an APS-C sensor (e.g. Nikon D5500 at 23.5 mm x 15.6 mm).
