HoHoHo (your official Christmas wishlist) 2006

I am after lighting equipment and a new bag.

I am looking at:

Hensel Integra Pro Plus Super Size 3 Monolight
1500 Total Watt/Second Kit - includes: 3 500 W/S Monolights with Built-in Radio Slave Receivers
Transmitter
Reflectors
Umbrellas
Softbox
32" Multi-Disc Reflector
Grid
Light Stands
Sync Cord
Case (90-230V AC)
Includes Free Hensel Ultra Softbox - 18x26"\

And for the bag:

Lowepro Stealth Reporter D650 AW Shoulder Bag

I think a hood for my 85f1.8 will do me fine.

Gitzo Carbon Fibre tripod and Arca-Swiss head. Okay I'm dreaming.

28/1.8. Not completely convinced I should get it to replace the 28/2.8.

What else? I'm pretty happy with my glass to be honest. I'd love a 24-105L or 24-70L but can't afford either. If I had that much I'd buy a tripod first =)

I may be able to swing a Canon 135 f/2 L - but I'll have to be nice to her for a few weeks though

My wish list:

Canon XTi
35mm f/1.4 L
Shutter release
Giottos RocketAir
Lens pen
Shoulder bag
B+W UV and CP filter

BG-E4

Well lets see my wife writes everthing I say I want on the refidgerator to show me how indescisive I am.Heres the list so far...

1.Playstation 3
2.Mercedes sl500
3.$3000 to buy camerea gear
4.Xbox 360
5.a new Pistol
6.More $$$ to buy camera gear
7.Carpet for the bonus room

I wont get any of it except for maybe the 360,but hey its on the list at least.

As for gear I will probably opt for some studio lighting this year.Alien Bees is right across town from me and they give good student discounts.

that thing is soooooo sick

Lets see, I've got a few primes on the list.
Sigma 30 1.4
Canon 50 1.4
Canon 135 2L
A new body (probably the 30D, may be the XTi)
A set of extensions tubes, and then other odds and ends. I mean you can never have too many memory cards.

Non photography (well mostly non, it does have a CF card reader) is a Creative Zen W multimedia player. And a bunch of movies, books and stuff.

Oh yeah, and definitely a Nintendo Wii. For the kids, honestly

Are you actually wanting to get all that, or is it a "dream" list?

What's on my Christmas wish list? A couple of days off from work so I can do some photography.

That doesn't look like it's going to happen though.
