What will be your next photography related purchase? Or what photography gear do you lust after?

What an adventure though.... Left home about 2pm on a Saturday with my boy. Drove down to Corfe Castle - through Wareham Forest too, that was beautiful & I wouldn't mind returning there! Climbed the hill, chilled out for a bit, watched the sunset, grabbed a few images. Back down to the car, cooked some food, set the car up for sleeping in. Drove to Lulworth, walked down to the Cove & just caught Orion dropping behind the cliff! Back to the car, grabbed a few hours sleep. Woke by my mate who drove down during the night, got up & hiked over to Man o War Bay where we met some random people & another mate joined us a bit later. Shot Milky Way there & then moved across to Durdle Door for more Milky Way. Shot a crescent moonrise in bluehour Followed by sunrise about an hour later. Very long & tiring walk back to the car at Lulworth with 6% battery left out of everything! Quick power nap, cooked some breakfast, coffee & hot chocolate before heading back home for about midday Sunday

168 miles well spent imo

EDIT - I keep meaning to start a catch up thread of my nights out in all honesty but don't get around to it - bit of an on-going post a bit like a blog I guess.

Maybe stick it in the Astro section.

Sounds amazing - that’s some great memories there - forget the photos!

Oh, and 25 miles isn't far..... Our last 22 hour overnight trip was 168 miles all in

Indeed it's 27 to my nearest supermarket bigger than a corner shop

In my opinion now, that's possibly more important than the images.

Anyway, I'll try to get a astroblog thread going. We're hijacking the thread where people come to spend money that they didn't intend to

I would like to buy a Nikon SB-700 AF speedlight.

Gassing on an Leica M10 Monochrom.

Trying to convince myself I don't need one, but resistance is normally futile in such cases!

My next photography purchase? A USB SD Card reader from ebay as I didn't realize how few modern laptops come with a built in SD reader these days...

Panasonic Lumix 14-140 Power OIS Mk 2

I recently got a Sigma 85 f1.4 art for Sony. It was not a lens desperately wanted but I thought I would give it a go. Wow it is stunning, I shoot weddings and events and I find it outstanding. Zero purple fringing, which is great as I'm often shooting back lit

DJI Mini 2.

I think.....

I think my M10 Monochrom GAS has passed, a least for now, I have my M10-P that does the job well enough.

I am thinking about an X100V if I can ever find one in stock anywhere! Stock of new cameras anywhere appears to be very thin on the ground at the moment.
