Dream set up

I just bought it - 5D2, 17-40L, 24-105L, 70-200L 4 IS :D

Edit: gonna hire a really long lens for birding, as and when. Be nice to have a 7D to put it on, but you can't have everything.
 
Gosh.

I'm not sure if I want to move to full frame as I've got used to APS-C. So, I'll settle for a little higher resolution and higher dynamic range, effective dust protection and a standard RAW / DNG that Raw Shooter Essentials will read so I don't have to use Canon DPP which I personally think is a clunky pile of poo.

Clunky yes, but it's not that bad. I think a lot of newbies would be better off using this for a bit and spending their money on glass or a tripod rather than rushing to get Lightroom/Aperture. I actually have Lightroom and I still prefer DPPs RAW processing.
 
Should arrive today. Nikon D700 and 28-70 2.8.
Yet to order Siggy 50mm 1.4. Gonna be checking out the new Siggy 70-200 with OS/VR/IS thats just been announced. Oh and a Speedlight.
 
Canon 1D 4, Canon 7D, Canon 550D. Canon 15-85, Canon 18-135, Canon 50 1.2, Canon 135 2.8, Canon 70-200 F4, Canon 100-400, Canon 500 F4, Manfrotto Tripod, suitable camera bag(s), Adobe CS4, MacBook Pro, iMac.

A beautiful girl to set everything up for me, and a Range Rover Sport HSE to carry everything. :D


Ahh if only.
 
I'm very comfortable with my current kit, but if I were to dream, it would be a full resolution Blad HD4 with all the lenses and trimmings, and a computer good enough to work those files, and a printer which would do it justice...

Oh, and I would also have a framing setup where I can churn my own frames out.

Gary.

Well you did say dream kit
 
There is a faint chance that I will have a 70-200 F4 L this year... :D
 
For me it would be a Mamiya DM series, probably the 22 to start with as the cost will be good, if money no object then a Phase One with the 65+ back.

Leica M9, 21mm f/2.8 Elmarit, 35mm f/2 Summicron and a 90mm f/2.8 Tele-Elmarit-M would be a good walk about kit and, since I have not woken up to reality yet, a Contax 645, 35mm f/3.5 Distagon, 80mm f/2 Planar, 120mm f/4 Apo-Makro Planar, 210mm f/4 Sonnar and a Phase One P65+ digital back for 'serious' work.

I'm fine with tmy current kit, but if I suddenly came into a lot of money I'd probably buy myself a leica S2 with a set of lenses
