A printer that does archival black & white
An ultra wide angle lens with cokin filters!
2.8 nikon 18-70mm lens; 2.8 nikon 70-200mm lens, sb-800 speed lights x 3, a spare nikon d300, and throw in a digital medium format; mamiya 645afd III would be just fine.
I would like some studio lights.
A portable strobe light set up.
A Canon 1Ds Mark III and a 400mm f2.8L IS would be pretty nice too!
veronica, check out alien bees for studio lighting…
I am looking to get a good flash unit … and Father’s Day is so far away!
I Want a AF-S VR Zoom-NIKKOR 200-400mm f/4G IF-ED for my Nikon D80 and studio lights.
Top of my list is a image stabilized stronger zoom. I’ve shared use of an old 100-300mm one we bought 20 years ago and while I’m impressed it works on a digital body, I’d like one that’s faster and quieter.
I hesitated a long time before buying a macro lens (Canon 60mm) but it’s given me great pleasure crawling among plants presenting a totally different view on life, e.g. this dew drops photo.
Really need a good wireless remote for my nikons
A portable lighting system, Alien Bees or something like that.
Longer focal length telephoto lens with vibration reduction feature.
I would like a better, easier to learn photo-editing program.
As one who enjoys film, I wish film was cheaper.
A really organized studio type setup, complete with lights. Ideally they would be smaller and portable, such as Alienbee White Lightning units…with a big ol’ battery pack.
