What toys are you thinking about?

What's on your early christmas list?

**asheep_uk** · 11-09-2010, 05:31 AM

I want a new lens for my camera (50mm) and a bread maker. A little skint this year though, so might just have to be a slinky.

I'm pretty sure I can speak for everyone when I say

^ ^ ^
Yes!

**jAQUAN** · 11-09-2010, 11:21 AM

I'd kinda like a Kinect or a PS3 Move but all my consoles are on their way to Germany so I probably wont see them again until Feb.
More than anything I'd like 3 days to rest and catch up on homework.

**el-Ignoramus** · 11-09-2010, 12:42 PM

I was thinking of the PS3 Move, but I'm not impressed with any of the titles yet, will wait and see, My immediate shopping list is a newer Phone, either an iPhone 4 or an Android, and a new lens to pelace my dying 17-85 mm canon and for Christmas/new year/My Birthday I'll get me a new canon the 5D Mark II, so perhaps the new lens to replace should be an EF series

if i was to find a dslr camera sub $300 id probably get it.

**WannaBe_80z** · 11-09-2010, 03:33 PM

I'd say go a generation or 2 back on the Powershot G series(even though the new G12 is delicious with HD video and other bells and whistles) if you want a decent camera. a DSLR will only make you want to spend more money on good glass and I have a feeling this will only be a hobby/snap shot thing for you.

im getting a divorce for christmas. best gift i ever gave myself

**WannaBe_80z** · 11-09-2010, 03:53 PM

oh wow.

**Frets** · 11-09-2010, 04:12 PM

I could care less about phones in general. If I were looking I'd wait for Sony's Playstation phone.

In the affordable not practical range I think of sound libraries specifically
GPO4

They don’t look like they’re compatible with each other.

**ctranter** · 11-09-2010, 07:28 PM

Maybe not directly. But, consecutively, eating and sleeping is very compatible.

Also another big contender in this round of P&S is the Canon Powershot S95. It is VERY similar in quality to the G12 but it is in a more compact case so you lose the hot shot and a few other bells and whistles in comparison but it is a much more pocketable camera if that's a selling point for you.

Obviously this has some sort of professional lighting but it still shows off what this little guy is capable of- incredible.

yeah but thats listed at $400 if i'm going to spend $400 why not just get something that has the potential to expand and grow? I could get a d40 packaged for maybe $100 more

**WannaBe_80z** · 11-10-2010, 05:20 PM

Just thinking of options that are a complete package. A DLSR is a slippery slope to your bank account.

If you want to go DLSR and I'm obviously a Canon pusher- I saw a 30D go for around 300-350 and a kit lens can be had for around $100 if you get lucky- that'd be an awesome start.

**WannaBe_80z** · 11-11-2010, 10:12 AM

Here you go. Canon 30D - $300.
