Very surprised none of you have included the cost of your computer gear with your digital kit. My wacom + screen + computer is just as essential in my image making process!

Canon grip ~£60
2x batteries ~£15
Filters ~£20

2gb CF card - Included

~£1200 on current kit... seems a lot and looks even worse when I look at it and see I have nothing longer than 50mm. I expect that will be a huge expense :(

Well I think one of his lenses costs more than anyone else has spent in this thread, aside from Willis. Add both his large lenses (he may even have more than two, but I'm thinking of the two most expensive) together and I think he overtakes everyone in the thread by quite some margin.
