Yes
I have a 350d and want the following things:

Cokin filters & holder thingy (55mm)
2x teleconverter for my 70-300mm sigma
Air blower to clean my sensor
Polarizer (55mm)
Wide angle lens
Monopod with B&S head (preferably)

Once I have saved up enough I want an L lens that will suit my needs. I'm guessing something that goes up to about 400mm if possible.

So my question is, which ones (specifically) of everything do I get that will fit and suit my camera best, for the cheapest possible prices. That way I can get more quicker IYKWIM ;) I'm not huge on brand names, if it's good I will use it to its full potential. Eventually I want to get all my canon lenses. But for now I just want a bit of everything to keep me going while I save for the big stuff.

:help:
 
Polariser - Hoya are cheap enough (as are Tiffen)
Cokin Filters & Holder - Holder - £6, adapter for lens £6, Filters = £10 each (roughly)
Wide Angle Lens - Sigma 10-20 IMO £220 from HK, £280 from UK
Monopod - Depends on Usage really, Velbon or Manfrotto, plus head.
2x Teleconverter - Not sure
Air blower - er, I'm a pecpad man myself :)

I'd get them in that order :D
 
:LOL: Marcel I want names, sizes and the like to make it easy for me.
 
Can't help you on the other stuff but get a Kenko tc, the are fairly cheap and have good optics.
 
I recently bought the ND grad kit with filters and holder

To which you would need to add a mounting ring for your lens

Don't know if that site is the best price but it seemed reasonable when I was looking.

Giottos Rocket Blower came from ebay. I bought the medium. Maybe should have gone for large.

The telecon I'd think twice about. You will probably be manual focussing and the magnification may leave you with a poor picture quality.
