Its the weekend :woot: I'm bored (raining) and all I seem to be doing is scouring the classifieds for something to jump out at me to buy...

I have 3 lenses (below) or 4 if you include the TC - chargers, extra batteries, ac mains adapter, filters, cleaning gear etc etc... Is there anything that can be recommended that could come in or be handy to have :shrug:

Any suggestions.....
 
What filters do you have already?

I would say Circular Polariser, a couple of Neutral Density Filters, and a couple of Graduated Filters if you haven't got them already. :)
 
Flashgun for off-camera flash?
Remote release. I use a lockable cable release so photographing the Perseids I locked it and left the camera taking 30sec exposures - I now have 159 sky images with a total of 4 meteors! You might find Nikon infra-red release can be locked.

Filters as per redhed17.

Already have a Nikon speedlight, wireless & timer remotes...
 
As been suggested already, you have no wide angle in your kit. This can of course depend on what you shoot though.

surely it depends what you shoot :shrug:

Otherwise it's asking how long is a piece of string
 
A proper tripod rather than a monopod with little feet on it!

I'm not really one for tripods - but those monopod feet (on my monopod) do spread quite wide & do what I want - if I was honest.....

:thinking: Not missing much then.... also :thinking: I'm not that serious a tog am only a mere hobbiest :razz:
 
In all seriousness, I think you have a wonderful kit there; unless you find yourself in the urgent need / want for something, you pretty much have a good-all-round kit.

I'd only think of the Kenko tubes, coupled with the 35 f/2, or a 50 f/1.8, you'd be able to get some amazing macro and really good close-ups. A lot cheaper than getting a dedicated macro lens.
