Hi everyone! I've been asked to prepare a "wish list" of digitization/photography equipment. While my current (realistic) needs are fairly modest, I know that there really is a lot of equipment out there which would be fantastic to have.
So my questions to you all are, "what pieces of equipment are you in love with?" and "if you could afford it, what would you get?" I'm thinking in terms of photography equipment and digital processing equipment and software (I bet I could stick a DAMS system on this list). I don't even have a monitor calibrator, so that's going on the list for sure! And if anyone's interested, here's what I'm currently working with: Nikon D70 camera with remote 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G ED-IF AF-S DX Zoom Nikkor lens Bogen Maxi-Repro copy stand with 37? x 40? baseboard 82 ?? wide white seamless paper backdrop Three Smith-Victor 700 SG lights with Raven RS-6 stands. Two have Smith-Victor 40? white bounce umbrellas, one has a Photogenic Eclipse 32? silver with black cover umbrella Manfrotto 3030 tripod Microtek ScanMaker i900 Optiplex GX620 computer with P4 HT (3.4GHz, 2M, 800MHz FSB), 1.0GB DDR2 Non-ECC SDRAM (533MHz), PCIe 128MB ATI Radeon X600SE video card, 19? flat-panel LCD monitor Photoshop CS2 KE Software EMu CMS Thanks everyone for your input!
