If you win the PowerBall??

What camera would you buy??

And what would be on your gear list??

I'd share some of the wealth and buy cameras for some fellows who can't afford a decent one, couldn't burn through that amount of money. I would probably not spend it on a camera for myself. Happy with what I have have

I'd get a second 5DIII, an EF 100-400 II, and maybe an EF 800 f/5.6L for when I get a wildlife shooting hair up my a$$. Of course I'd need a couple new good tripods and a gimbal head.

all of it

Sigma big green monster and a caddy to haul it around for me.

Doesn't matter what camera but I'd buy some major advertising space to complain about focus issues just for the hell of it.

It doesn't matter what I buy. My wife will tell me I don't need it.

You could buy plenty of new wives who wouldn't tell you that.

I'm pretty happy with my 7D2/5D3 setup at the moment, but I'd probably buy a Canon 200-400mm f/4L IS + 1.4x Extender and book a Safari trip.

Does a Porsche to carry my gear around count?

Some clerk at B&H, and maybe one at Adorama would melt down from overwork. Not only would I go 1DX and 5D3, 5Dr but I would preorder theor replacements before they are even announced. And just send me the lens library while you're at it.

you get yourself a nice carrying case but take it easy on the camera gear itself? :P

A technical camera and all the Schneider lenses to go with it.

A couple of Portys and a couple of Nova power packs with 4 or 6 speed heads.

1) Tithe to my church (and as we are currently a mobile church, this tithe check would help buy a building and alot of missions would get some of the funds)
2) Pay off all bills
3) Get a 1DX and some killer lenses, like 600mm prime, etc, and possibly dabble with the latest Nikon offering (D5) and a few good lenses just for fun
4) Several donations to local charities like our Rescue Mission, Charis House, and Community Harvest Food Bank
5) Get a Corvette ZR1
6) The rest of the money would go into a family trust and we would live on the interest, while continuing our support of church and charity.

I would finally get some real lenses. I'm no where close to the disposable income this forum caters to.
