Yes
I have a days leave was planning to get out doing some photography but its hissing down so I decided to play "What do I get when I win the lottery.As i'm not sure if I would stay with Canon (5D & 7D) or move to Nikon (D700 & D300s) I decided just to look at 3rd party lenses

Sigma 12-24
Sigma 24-70
Tamron 70-200 f2.8
Tamron 180 Macro
Sigma 120-400
Sigma 300 f2.8

Anybody else want to play

:agree:

Then the bestest computers/monitors available that will also run from my new mobile home while I cross Britain & Europe as a landscape photographer :)

Though he may have only meant winning a tenner, or little more :shrug:

Fancy one (and a spare) of the new Pentax medium format bodies, then off to Utah for a good mountain bike ride and photography tour of all the Red Rock areas
 
I'll let you win tonight, I am happy waiting till the £84m super eurojackpot!

If I win that, then as well as starting my own charity fund etc etc. I will be taking my time and working out exactly what I need for the photos I want to take.

And seeing as I will be travelling the world in a luxury yacht, I will probably need to buy one of pretty much everything!
 
Another Hasselblad purchase here, but would be a film body tbh, having played with a digital one early this year - gorgeous, but.... nah, for digital I would have to stick with Nikon.

so...another D700, part 2 and 3 of the Holy Trinity, couple more SB900's, probably something like a 500 or 600mm lens, a 24" super spec'd mac [I feel like I am watching a tennis match with the 27"], a load of additional back up and off site storage.... oh yeah, and a whole new wardrobe :D

edit: to add something like a GF1 kit, or similar for when I dont want to lug loads of kit

edit2: Actually, make that 2 GF1 kits, one for him too, what the hell its a lottery win
 
My gear is fine, the problem is the photographer and his subjects so:

1. All of Damien Lovegrove's training, especially the post production stuff
2. Decent haircuts for the kids, rather than the dodgy barber down the road
3. Nose job, facelift and boob job for the wife

I'd also like a printer that actually prints out what I see on the screen rather than a rough approximation, but I don't think even lottery millions could buy me that.
 
Buy a narrow boat,Leica M7 and M9 with a few lenses and just travel for 6 months with no forwarding address
