Decent tripod.. err.. £70?
Sigma 2.0x Teleconverter £130 (just ordered! :D)
...That's about it really, I'm trying to keep my kit portable as I intend to go travelling with it, but I may chuck a few filters in for good measure!

I'd double your budget for a decent tripod. :) £70 will be fine, but not great.
 
Shopping List:

40D
Grip
Battery
Remote switch
Canon 100mm Macro
58mm Pro-1D protector
Hood
Lowepro Slingshot 300AW

just a small list :)
 
I've got everything I need, but my wish list is:

D200 (once the D300 is released and the price comes down)
17-55mm f/2.8 ~£850
70-200mm f/2.8 VR ~£1200
50mm f/1.4 ~£200
85mm f/1.4 ~£800

That's probably nearly £4k worth of stuff, but a gal can dream

Will be upgrading to a new body in the next few months, will likely be a 40D dependant on its performance - although I haven't ruled out stretching to a 5D or 1D mkIII

So, we're looking at anything from £800-£2500

Glass-wise, I'm pretty much covered but I've been looking at

Canon EF 24-70 2.8L £680
50 1.4 £190
85 1.8 £210

& also could do with a decent ND grad system

I'm sure the mrs will be delighted when I break this news :)
 
Interesting to read what people plan on getting, should get good results from all of this kit :)

There's probably a Canon salesman reading this rubbing his hands togethor and licking his lips :p
 
I've been so distracted by other things, I don't think I deserve any new stuff, BUT :D

50mm 1.2 (want)
24 - 70 F2.8 L (need as I've nothing covering this range)
70 - 200 F2.8 L IS (need to replace the 70-300 which I don't like)
Something L related to cover 200-400 area, but baring a lottery win tonight, this aint happening :D

I also want (more need actually) a really decent tripod which I was planning on getting with my bonus, until the government just shafted the civil servants in the DWP by eating our bonus. STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE!

That and a good small 2 lens, one camera side bag as my sister took mine with the old 300D.
 
Just one thing for me:

100-400ml f4L IS

Been wanting a telephoto with a bit more reach on it for a while now, hopefully going to get one of these for christmas, just got to save up first :D
 
for me its;


Sigma 150mm F2.8 EX DG APO Macro £423
Lowerpro Slingshot 200AW £69
Sigma10-20mm f4-5.6 EX DC HSM £289
Semi-decent tripod £100ish


roughly £800 but i wanna get another memory card and some other bits
 
A larger HDD for storage is about the height of my shopping list & maybe a couple more cf cards.
In a year or so when our weeun starts getting more mobile I'll maybe look at something like the 70-200 to try & get him when he's playing without distracting him.
Other than that happy with with I got, there's probably more items I might think I want but don't really need them so not going to bother.
