What would you ask for?

[CarrieJ]

If someone asked you what you wanted for your birthday and the budget was $200, what camera equipment, accessory, or toy would you ask for?

I have:

Nikon D3000
18-55mm VR
55-100 VR
35mm f1.8
Nikon SB600 Flash
Crumpler 6 Million Dollar Home
A few filters (nothing fancy)

I want to upgrade my camera body, but not in the near future.

There are so many things to think about and I have no idea. I am mainly a hobby photographer, but I do freelance work for a few local publications, fyi. But I DO love photography.

If there was one thing on your gift list, what would it be?

I did see the Black Rapids RS-W1 camera strap which looks amazing

What do you like to photograph? That's probably helpful for recommendations. Afterall, if I had $200 I'd probably ask for a reverse Grad ND filter, but if you take portraits, that's going to be very much less than helpful to you.

Mostly I like to photograph my family, but I love landscapes, nature, architecture.....

This Lightstand.
This Umbrella Adapter.
This Umbrella.
This Wireless Trigger.

That should be about $200 and greatly increase your ability to take quality images of your family.

Me? I'd want a ThinkTank Retrospective 10 (in Pinestone) camera bag. If they weren't all sold out everywhere and unavailable that is. But you have your Crumpler.

Maybe a Manfrotto 190XB tripod with a simple ballhead?
