Elf Input

[Bill Pierce]

What would you like Santa to put in your digital stocking? It has to cost less than $500. It can be a camera, an accessory, a computer program, whatever. But Santa's elves are helping me to write a column, and I need a broad spectrum of elf input.

Pentax SMCP-FA 50mm f/1.4 lens, Santa. I've been good. Mostly.

Ooh- I'd love to find one of the new, small, fast primes for my Nikon DSLR in my stocking. Preferably the 35mm f1.8G, but I'd happy with the 50mm f1.4G, too. Fun thread idea!

We have a National Elf Service in UK!

That the ' elf yourself elves ' don't nick any of my cameras .
Just a modest set of the latest Summitars . Don't wish to be elfish .

Like a M9 .
Pristine Contax II to complement pristine KNeB II .

A LTM CV 25/4 snapshot skopar is under the $500 limit. It would be nice to play with on a IIIf.

I think one of those new Canon g11's might fit real nice in my stocking. Not too big, and not too small. But in all honesty, I don't need a thing.

Yeah, a Canon G11 would be real nice to wake up to on Christmas morning!

 

[kermaier]

Does a GRD3 make the price cut?

Howzabout 400 ft. of Eastman Double-X 5222 and some 11X14 Ilford Multigrade double weight paper, gloss surface. I'm stocked up on chemicals OK, and have all the hardware I need.

The A & A glove leather Elliot's Everyday Bag for my R D1.

Nothing's too good for my baby! 😀

 

[navilluspm]

A Canon S90

 

[BillBingham2]

Two good GRD Is with used CV 28mm finders for my two sons so they can learn how much fun photography can be

or

An iPhone for my wife with the monthly charges covered for a year

or

A new D60 body only with a Nikon extended warrantee so I can do weddings on weekends to bring in money

or

The cash to help between jobs.

A proper scanner for MF & LF. I think it can be done <= $500. And if it can do 35mm suitable for web, that would be nice. Must play nicely with Mac.

I'd like Santa to bring one of those new digital book readers. Or an improved version.
...All those magazine, newspaper, and blog photographers, some of them will be using the latest digital photographic equipment to produce high quality images that will be "published" on the web. I'd like a digital book reader that will do justice to those images.

I want one of the VC-II meters that Voigtlander makes to put on my M4. They just raised the price from $175 to $185 🙁 lol

My serious Christmas wish is the reintroduction of Konica IR750, I've not found a suitable replacement.
