Hey,

I don't know where to post this thread, but it is more about buying, so market forum is a good place maybe.

Is there anything within $100 or less to buy from B&H? I got tired checking B&H tenths times and still can't see many options or choices, there are 2 or 3 things but not sure, many times i had an order and i just need an item or 2 in range of $50-100 to complete it within the limited budget i put, as many times i remember an item or so later after i place an order, any suggestions or recommendations?

Something could be an accessory for a camera, or for a lens, or the studio, or computer,....etc.

Just curious, why do you need to spend $100 on something?

Something 100$ or less waiting to be wasted, lol
I spend 100$ rather than spend over $300-400 later because one item i forgot to add for current order to minimize the shipping, so with new order i need to order more so then i will not get high shipping for item(s) less than $100

If i don't have something similar then definitely i will buy one of them, but why you chose those as an option for me? Are those in your wish list?

Here are some things that IMHO should be in everyone's camera bag:

Rocket Blower Medium (size L is a bit too big for most people)
Use this to blow dust off your lens, etc without having to contact the glass in any way.

IMAGE: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/images/largeimages/318545.jpg

Pec Pads (100 pack) - I like these because they are one-time use, so no worries about repeatedly using a microfiber cloth with grime on it from the previous cleaning.

Ziess - Premoistend cleaning cloths

I stick a couple of these in my camera bag/pack in case I need to clean in the field. Same concept as the above, but don't have to bring along a solution and 100 pads, etc.

Justin spring clamp -- if you're into off-camera lighting, these are great to "clip" your flash wherever you need. Can used for a lot of other things as well.

YES! I second the above recommendations, but didn't want to go down the "studio lighting" route because I'm not sure what the OP is working with.

PS. the above has been on my wish list for awhile. I have the Bogen Magic arm already so I haven't been able to justify it (yet).

Thank you very much!

Maybe those Pec Pads or Ziess cleaning cloths can be something to consider, i have one friend from Egypt have it and he like it, i will add it as one of the priorities.

I was thinking about either an umbrella [large one] or a MP3 player one of the iPods] but dunno if large umbrella is really worthy, and i have 1 MP3 player [3rd party] that is not bad.

Hi Tareq,

This thread would be better off in the Accessories & Storage forum as you would likely get more answers there. But in regards to your question, there are dozens of goodies to buy in the "under $100" category. I took a look at your gear list, and you have an impressive array of gear. What areas (in the accessory department) are you short in? This may help us brainstorm some ideas...
