Birthday List 29

19 October 2015, 09:06


Canon EOS 70D, Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens, 1/100 second @ f/4.5, ISO 4000.

This is a photo from earlier this year, when me and Melissa went to visit Sirocco

Anyway, my birthday is coming up soon, and May and Melissa need help. Some other people might as well.

Here’s the list. Some are for that rich person that wants to get me a 5Ds R

  • Canon EOS 5Ds R
  • Canon EOS 7D Mark II
  • Canon EOS 760D
  • Lens list:
  • Any decent flash. The Canon 600EX-RT and 430EX III-RT are the Canon versions. I’ve also heard good things about the LumoPro LP180.
  • Short-sleeved dress shirts in my size.
  • Shorts.
  • Triggertrap Accessory Pack and Triggertrap Mobile Kit MD3-E3 (the second one is more important)
  • A light stand with an umbrella swivel and an optical white, shoot-through umbrella (your local camera store should know what these are. I found a kit containing the stuff and a little more (I don’t need the last thing in the kit). Brands don’t really matter).
  • Gift cards to my local camera stores (WPS is my favourite, but the blue one is ok as well).
  • At least 2 identical 2TB+ External HDs. Better if not needing mains.
  • Books. For reading and stuff.
  • A nice case for my iPhone 6s (It’s the same size as an iPhone 6). I’d like it to protect the screen if possible.
  • A serious photo printer: I’ve been looking at the Epson Artisan 1430, which is about the minimum.

Update

  • A Wacom tablet of some description. I haven’t done much (any) research into these.
  • A stylus that I can use with Astropad
  • An iPad. Also no research done. But I don’t need the mobile one, just WiFi.
  • The Serge Ramelli Complete Package Bundle. He puts out discount codes that get it down to ~\$99 fairly regularly.
