    Just curious to see what everyone has on their wishlists these days.

    For me:
    -Slider (possibly a Rhino Slider Carbon Core)
    -Monopod w/ fluid head (Manfrotto 560B-1 ?)
    -Steady Cam (I'm currently part way through a DIY build :tu: )
    -Better audio for DSLR
    -New Computer (Then I'll finally upgrade to Adobe CC)

    How about you???

    Thats a cool project! I suck a soldering and just need a smaller light for minimal low light situations. I was looking at picking up one of these for about $40.

    I've got a couple of these and they work great. I'm not sure about the one you posted, but these work off AA batteries or it will also work off one of my Sony DSLR batteries(some other battery options also). Pretty convenient to have that option. I don't think it works with the canon batteries though.

    I have a couple things in my Amazon cart that I need to pull the trigger on within the next two weeks.

    Muddy Outfitter Arm
    Dual Camera Mount
    LED Light
    Dual Cold Shoe Mount

    Couple other things I'd like to get:

    Rode SmartLav
    Slider (I built one, but the bolt is too long, making the camera a little wobbly. And it doesn't mount to a tripod)
    More lenses for my DSLRs

    Nice! What did you order (computer)?

    Look into Vegas as a stand alone. You could go FCP as well if you went apple. I'm partial to the Creative Cloud as a I use a lot of software, though.
