What's your next buy?

What's next for your kit bag.

I want flash triggers and a 70-300mm lense.

a 10-20  would be nice but out of my budget. A reflector is likely to be my next purchase.

Probably the kit bag itself lol

Or a beginners guide / photography course.

Currently on the look out for a few things,
70-200/300mm lens - definately s/h
Polariser for my 50mm prime - should be cheap enough for a 49mm thread
Flash Gun, probably just a cheap one or secondhand
A new kit bag, perhaps decent rucksack/shoulder bag combo that can hold more that just camera bits (as I am usually out with the family and need supplies of snacks/drinks and things).

Hoping to get everything except the flash before going on holiday in June.

I'm interested in the lomo horizon. Looks like a fun bit of kit.

I have a 14mm 2.8 sigma prime lens,add that to the 20d and you are looking at around 3lb in weight. Plus when you add into the 1.6x sensor you're really looking at 22.4mm lens. not that wide.

or if they weren't so damn expensive the hasselblad xpan II would be a great little panoramic camera.

Unless you have a full frame dslr, it's really tricky to do good landscape pics because of the 1.6x multiplier effect.
