whiskey. lots and lots of good bourbon whiskey. One thing I've learned living in post-Katrina New Orleans is that almost everything else is optional.

Ah, hadn't factored in the size of the island when I voted for my wife
But really, as brachal says, what good would any of them be without alcohol and lots of it?

One can always make booze. Cigarettes are more difficult !
6 months without a woman though ... I'd take my wife (and she is not watching, Joe).

It's so hard to choose between RF+films and my significant other.
Eventually I've come up with a solution. I would pre-order a M6 and 1000 rolls of film and mail them to the island first.
Then I'll bring my girl there. I don't think my gal will come with me though.
So I'd better do the same thing with cameras and films. Then bring some books with me.
haha...

get the laptop with internet connection have Steven send a new bessa and lenses, freestyle for a bunch of film and have my wife deliver

As much as I love my wife, I would choose the RF with 1000 rolls of film, and then wife with the alcohol--the two have to go together!

A RF camera with 1,000 rolls of film?
"Hmm, now what shall I shoot today? Should I do some candid street shots? Or maybe some portraits? Or perhaps some sports action shots? Oh, I know - I'll do some desert island landscapes."

Some really good beer would be great! Living alone on a desert isle drinking beer would be a lot like I live now!

That's easy, my wife. She's packing an OM-4 and she can find cheap film *anywhere*

I guess you didn't notice the Miss Universe option.

Finally at home...
Very nice, I like that!
Of course, it would be my wife on #1.
2. Books... (still the best pastime, after "No. 1" of course)
3. RF with 1000 films (but what do you shoot after a while on a remote island?)
4. Laptop etc. ('cause it wouldn't work long in such surrounding anyway)
5. Satellite phone (if it works there, that is)

A power generaor with 1000 Gallons of fuel, plus a small A/C unit. I don't see this option though.
Next best choice, a satellite phone with spare batteries and solar charger. This way, my wife can inform me how she and the kids are doing. I could also call for help ....
