Wish List (In Order of Priority)

Apple MacBook Pro Battery
I have been badly spoilt with extremely good battery life on my Thinkpad. My 9-cell battery used to deliver close to 6 hours of battery life on a good day. When I moved to the MacBook Pro, the lackluster battery life wasn’t too impressive. The best solution that I can think of, is to get a spare battery! I just wish the damn thing didn’t waste so much energy on heat.

Canon 50D
I need a second body enough said. The 400D is almost going to give way, I can feel it. And the bright viewfinder with the better penta-prism would be excellent. Seriously, this one isn’t a lustful buy, the 400D is most definitely going to give way anytime soon, and since the extended warranty that I purchased is going to run out anytime soon, I think its a good time to get a new one in 2010.

Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8 L II USM
These are for church group photos and dinners which I also am shooting a lot more of recently. The 16mm would really be useful – and hopefully when I shoot my first wedding.

Canon 580EXII
I will need a new flash unit – ’nuff said.

Canon EOS 5D MkII
Full-Frame. Need I say more?

Canon 35mm f1.4 + 85mm f1.2 + 135mm f2.0
Known as The Holy Trinity of lenses these would just be pure lustful desires. No point getting such great ones if I don’t have a full-frame camera, so this one comes later. Maybe when I hit 30 or something like that.
