I have saved a little bit up and it's time to buy a new toy again. I have narrowed it down to 3 options:
Option 1 - A used 100mm 2.8 Macro lens. - I'm starting to do a fair amount of portraits, and rely mostly on my 50mm 1.8 for that. The super-close focusing distance really pops my cork on this.. could really get me into macros some more.
Option 2 - A new Lensbaby Composer. Cuz it looks like a ton of fun.
Option 3 - A second light to use as fill, background, hairlight, whatever. I currently use old Vivitar flashes "popped" via optical slave when my one and only strobe fires. Works ok mostly, but sometimes I want something "bigger" or more adjustable.
Since I can't decide on my own, I'm calling out to guys to help sway my decision one way or another. What do you think?

| The 100mm f/2.8 is one of my favorite lenses. So I would vote for that. |
