Hi Santa,
I haven't been all that good this year, but I haven't been all that terrible, either.
Here's my list:
A better tripod, cause mine's really heavy, and I lost the little thingy that tightens the legs, so they keep slipping and my camera comes crashing down when the tripod falls over sideways
Maybe one of those ball heads or the funky pistol grips or the multi thingys for big honkin' lenses
Speaking of big honkin' lenses 600mm lens would be really cool. Canon mount, of course. Nikon would be really useless. Although, I suppose I could sell it on ebay.
Someone to carry around the 600mm lens, because it would be way to heavy to carry in my backpack.
better beamer flash extender -- sounds like I can light birds from across the river!!
I'd also like some egrets and great blue herons for my back yard -- it would be so much easier than driving up to Chincoteague. I really think they'll get along with the squirrels. So it's ok.

I think what you really need are some red-tailed hawks, ferruginous hawks, northern goshawks and golden eagles to control your squirrel problem! |

| You could get one of those 600mm solid cats that Vivitar used to make. Small, light, and sadly way over priced as of late. |

| I would like: a kindle, a external hard drive, new clothes, new running shoes (all of which I'm pretty sure I'm getting or my husband will be in the dog house) but a girl can also dream about: a wide angle lens, a portable strobe, and a 5d mark III. Oh ya and my tripod has seen it's better days :( |

| Santa, I would like to thank you for listening to all these peoples dreams and letting them live in hope, because the world needs more hope. While your at it a Phase One P45+ wouldn't go astray, although I know it's probably out of your price range. Hope that helps. PS please make all the sick people better, especially the kids, they're our future. |

| Simple request, winning lottery numbers for a future powerball or the megamillions will do nicely. I know you're busy, so I'll take it from there. |
