So what did everyone get?

[princess.chell]

which 200mm did you get? There are some versions out there that are very high quality. Either way, you got pretty lucky this Christmas.

Erm...it's a Tamaron. Beyond that I'm really not so good at the whole lens thing, if that wasn't apparent by my post hahah. I'm trying to learn that part still.

Not much here but no complaints b/c I got quite a bit during the year. For Christmas it was a 16GB CF card - partially to replace the 8GB that seems to have disappeared in DH's camera!

I got a Pentax K-x. My Christmas bonus was $725 and I found the white K-x with 18-55mm lens for $510 on Amazon. A week later, they offered me a black one with the 18-55 and 55-300mm lenses for $612 as a Gold Box deal. Needless to say, the white one is going back. Even if the kit lens is sub-par, it's worth at least the $100 I figure.

I got the Canon 1.4 extender, an additional Manfrotto quick release plate for the second body I will be getting, and a 8gb CF card.

I got the K-x too! I was very surprised. My k100 still works, but I had been drooling over the white K-x. I love it! It's so snappy and can't wait to use it in the dark basketball gyms. Love the stormtrooper motif.

I got a camera from Nikon and a set of novels by an author from India. The camera was gifted by my parents and the novels by a friend of mine. I had the best Christmas this year capturing every moment making it a memorable one to remember in the times to come.

I got the Canon 24-70 F/2.8 and quite a few photography books. I've really enjoyed the lens so far.

Wow! Great deal.

Don't worry, Pentax makes a really good kit lens (as far as kit lenses go)...

And the 55-300 has gotten really good reviews for a "slow" zoom - and it alone sells for $350-400 at most places! I hope I don't see a deal like that, my wife wants a K-x and we've been spending too much money lately. (Of course, she wants an imported purple one...)

I got a photo scanner and it came with Photo Elements V. 6.

Still in the market for a few more things, but will get them soon.

Just got a 12mm extension tube.

Now I am still saving for a full frame DSLR. Hopefully, I can add a 105mm f/2.8 micro to go with it.
