Margus, I have seen "Excellent +" FA 100m f2.8 Macro lenses at KEH.com and Adorama, and also on Ebay for between aud$250 and $300. I doubt that I would buy it new, thus I have "given" myself approximately aud$300 to spend on the lens.
As for dvd burners, if you can show me somewhere to buy one for aud$150, I will jump for joy. (You Do mean a DVD burner and not a CD burner don't you?!?) I haven't seen one within Australia for less than $300 and anything that is of a decent speed and brand is around the $400-$500 mark. For example: http://www.iswh.com.au/nav/productinfo.asp?code=197390 http://www.iswh.com.au/nav/productinfo.asp?code=211146 Oh, also forgot for my "lust list" - Wacom Graphire 3 tablet and stylus (they come in pink! lol) $200 and there was something else that I remembered but then forgot just as quickly! Sleep deprivation will do that to you I guess! tan. -----Original Message----- From: Margus Mannik [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 8 March 2004 5:13 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: What gear is on your "lust list" ?
