Photography related, that is.

Or what have you already bought.

After my first paid job I will be getting the Cyber Syncs from PCB.

This month will be getting a Canon 400 2.8, then probably a 5D Mark II - or III- before baseball season.

i rounded out 08 with a 5Dmk1 and canon 50 1.4. so i'll probably be snatching up a 24-105 pretty soon.

Good question...

I'm thinking of getting a 85 1.8 (or possibly 50mm 1.4), but I would really like another body as well (40D). I don't have any low light lenses, but I know last year there were a few times I wish I had a second body so I wouldn't have to swap lenses constantly.

Got coin set aside for a 5D MkII. Just waiting for Canon to sort out the couple issues with the camera.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

If I play my cards right, the 5D II in June. I'm saving.

(a) A new bulb for the light set that just came in with a broken bulb.

(2) Some books so maybe I can begin to improve my shots.
