Hey I got a 40 dollar gift card for Christmas. I know its late but my sister finally returned a bag she bought for me from ritz. I wanted to buy a 50mm 1.8 but there website says they dont carry them. If you got a 40 gift certificate and would pay a little bit more money what would you buy? What would you suggest to get for a beginner. I have a 20D w kit lens and a 430ex. Keep in mind it has to be from ritz/ the camera shop/ whatever they call those stores. :D thanks everyone.

O ya I looked at those continual lighting things. One was 40. Whats the deal with them?

I too got a $40 card for Ritz from my sister for Christmas. I put in a few more dollars and got the Pantone Huey monitor calibrator. It might be cheaper than alot of the other calibrators out there but it does a darn good job. It makes post processing easier when the colors look more like they should and makes my prints look more true to their original color.

Maybe a good polarizing filter?
