If You Had $100, What Equipment Would You Buy?
Yeah yeah, if I had $100, I’d make a payment on my car insurance and find some food to put on the table this evening. This is just meant to be a fun little question, kinda curious is all.
If someone gave you $100 that you could spent on any photography equipment in the world, used or new, film or digital, what would you purchase? You can buy multiple items, but your budget is a firm $100. There’s no right answer, it’s just that so many people focus on the expensive, state-of-the-art cameras and lenses that we never hear about the little things that can make all the difference in the world.
Best answer is subjective — if there’s an outstanding answer, it’ll get the 10 points. If not, it’ll go to vote.
Just for further clarification, I’m assuming that you, of course, have already have a camera.
I would buy the Bogen/Manfrotto 338 QTVR Leveling Base for my tripod.

This would, of course, use up the whole $100, but it would be worth it because I shoot a lot of panorama shots and this would healp greatly in making sure the horizion was level across the entire shot.
