    Santa arrived early for me and bought me a 580 EX II..
    Hoping he'll also bring me a 100-400mm Canon lenses over the coming weeks as well.

    So what are you planning to get or have got for xmas?

    Word on the street is that our Christmas bonus is cancelled (due to the economic climate blah blah blah), but may be able to scrimp together and get a few bits and bobs (only starting out really).

    santa is getting me a 5D MarkII and a 17-40mm.

    also some much needed film for my mamaiya/sekor.

    If I can wangle a nice nifty-fifty, I'll be happy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,198 ✭✭✭kensutz


    Tomorrow a 500mm lens and next week a 400mm. Gotta love primes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,146 ✭✭✭Morrisseeee


    Nothing.........the great depression has led me to believe there is no Santa!!! :eek:

    But...........if he did exist, he would probably bring me some (or all) of these beauties :D

    Luckily I'll be in NZ for christmas so he'll be able to deliver to visit to me first. I would luuuurve a 24-70mm f/2.8 but I think it's just wishful thinking.:(


  • Registered Users Posts: 985 ✭✭✭Cosmo K


    A Canon S90 ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,584 ✭✭✭PCPhoto

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,220 ✭✭✭Slidinginfinity


    If I'm lucky maybe a new tripod and a decent macro lens.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,657 ✭✭✭trishw78

    Dear Santa,
    I've been a good girl ;) this year. So I'd like a 5DMkII &/or 24-105mm. If you can't get me those then. I'll live with the Photo book.

    Hugs & Kisses

    She's like "Ok, what type of lens do you want?".
    "A lensbaby"
    "Huh?"
