What New Gear Have You Purchased This Week?

Got off lightly this week, just bought a book on Lightroom 4 from the classifieds.

Oh and sold 4 lenses to MBP to start me off on the road to 5D mk111 ownership :D

Just unpacked... an old, low serial numbered Nikkor 17-35...

Ultra-smooth operations, perfect glass, a few minor scratches...

The bad bit... some time in history the golden ring got lost! :D
 
Just placed an order to buy the following items from ebay:

1. Brand New! Mamiya K/L 127mm f/3.5 L Lens RB, RB67 pro S, SD, KL in Box
2. Brand New! Mamiya RB PRO SD 120 6X7 FILM HOLDER / FILM BACK
3. Brand New! Mamiya 7 / Mamiya 7 II 135mm PANORAMIC ADAPTER KIT
4. MAMIYA RZ SHIFT TILT ADAPTER CATALOG/BROCHURE (ORIGINAL PRINT JAPAN/not copies)
5. Brand New! Lens Front Cap For Hasselblad Bay 60 B60 Bay-60 Plastic Free shipping
6. Used! Fuji GW690III_GSW690III_GW670III Instruction Manual (24895) in English

And very soon i will order from another online store something else before they close their online order due to the weekend.
 
Just placed another order, but i have to wait until Sunday when they process it, and i think they will ship by monday then i have to wait almost 4-5 days, these are the items:

1. Vortex Media Pro SLR Storm Jacket Camera Cover, X-large (Black)
2. Cavision 4 x 4" Neutral Density (ND) 1.5 Filter
3. Pearstone FireWire 800 9-Pin to 9-Pin Cable - 10' (3 m)
4. Hoya 77mm Orange G (HMC) Multi-Coated Glass Filter for Black & White Film
5. Hitech Adapter Ring for 4x4" Filter Holder - 77mm - for Wide Angle Lenses
 
Panasonic G3 and 14-42 [14-42 stays in the box, although it's not half bad.]
14mm f/2.5 [faster focusing, nicer focal length than the 20mm/1.7 for me..]
100-300mm [incredible lens, early impressions as good as the 100-400L I owned!!]

All this to replace a D3100, 55-300 and 35/1.8, and an SX50HS bridge, trying to go from 2 cameras with specific functions to a single camera with a lens for each of my needs. 600mm and 28mm, the only two focal lengths I want to shoot at... until I pony up for the extra 4mm of the zuiko 12mm. Oh, and I have been looking very closely at the EM-1, but not this week [or year]... I can't get over how compact the G3 and 14mm combo is - tiny compared to the D3100/35mm, and even compares favourably to the RX100 or V1.

A used Canon 1.4 Extender for my EF300L f4, I now have 420mm when I need it :D
 
Just ordered a Yongnuo 568EXII and 622C triggers, along with a 5 in 1 reflector. Will post some pictures when they turn up.

Time to get in to flash! D:
 
My Sigma 85/1.4 finally arrived today, lovely piece of glass :love:
 
My battery grip and 4 extra batteries came this week for me..
 
The last 2 weeks have been fairly expensive for me - Nikon D800e, Lexar 1000x 32 gb CF card, Bowens HiGlide kit & bits, Optech Strap. Still to get a 32gb SD card - prob another Lexar...
 
Benro Gimp head GH2....

I'm inept at posting pictures up so I will leave this to your collective imagination:D

Last thing I bought was 4 months ago and after the wife took delivery it would be more than my life was worth to purchase anything else for quite a while. Trouble is I need a decent tripod and head as it weighs 6kg on it's own.

JEALOUS:sulk:
 
Will be collecting my Nikon D5100 Tuesday so just ordered a Nikon ML-L3 remote for it, should help with trying to get some half decent firework shots and cost all of £8 :).
 
Won a Sigma 50-500mm F4.5-6.3 APO DG OS HSM on ebay a couple of weeks ago.....half the price of a new copy, looks like new and seems to work perfectly (fingers crossed)! Happy days! :)

A Fuji X100 - waiting for it to arrive.
A Rogue Flash Bender - Used at the weekend, it pretty impressive well worth the ~£20 it costs.
 
Brought a (hardly) used Nikon P7700 yesterday and wishing I wasn't stuck in an office all day so I could get out and try it!! Grrrrr

Canon 200mm f/2.8 II, traded for a 70-200 f/4 non is just because the 70-200 f/4 non is wouldn't fit vertically in my bag of all the reasons haha. Although the extra stop sure is gonna come in handy. Hopefully get a chance to use it skiing this week

Bored waiting for Sigma to come up with a 24mm f/1.4 lens to follow the superb 35mm, so picked up the Nikon version instead, 'twas not cheap but is luurvly.
 
I may have accidentally purchased a Ricoh GR, should be with me end of the week....
