    A monopod and ball head, either a battery grip or new tripod, and a canon 24-70L.

    Will have to see what the tax man brings this year.

    Bah! Lottery tickets in Bangkok. Don't ask.

    Photographic equipment is off the radar for quite some time unfortunately.

    yea ving i didnt wanna get into wishlists , ill start crying if i do that ..

    im not much of a macro guy but im interested in the tammy 90 for a good bang for your buck portrait prime .. seeing as though i cant afford the $2.5K Carl Zeiss 85 1.4 I had a brief love affair with at PMA the other day ...

    ok
    I wish for
    a canon 5d mkIII
    a canon 16-35L
    New pocket wizards with a 430flash

    note, my last big expenditure was a packet of lense tissue and the way money is at the moment, the 5dMKIII will be second hand by the time I save up

    really, maybe a laser light soft box

    cheers

    seems people are going to be spending up .. we'll be out of this recession in no time

    So far weve had a D90, 50D, K-7, D3, 1DsMKIII for Darrens dog, 5DMKII, a couple of L lenses, pocketwizards, Giotto tripods ...

    This is why I said "realistic" and not "wishlist" ...
