So, did anybody bag any cool photo-related swag for Christmas? Just curious.

Well, I got a miniature plastic tripod head that you jam onto a soda bottle. It looks like a quality piece.
I also got 5 Nat Sherman cigars. Not photo stuff, but worth mentioning.

I got a very rare/cool Noct Nikkor 58mm F1.2. It is in excellent condition and at 1.2 it is beyond any of my expectations. A Christmas present to remember. On the D3 it is outstanding.

Just enough cash to finally get my camera fixed. Now I'll be able to go back to looking at the world properly.

I got two manfrotto superclamps, a lowepro sling bag, and a Nikon 50mm f1.8 lens. :-D

I picked up a book and did a little review on my site. "Documentary and Anti-Graphic Photographs". Featuring Evans, Bresson, and Bravo.

I did real well. Two great books; David Plowden, Vanishing Point. It was reviewed here on TOP. And a very funny and cleaver book (also reviewed on TOP) about a cat that shares my nickname, Ernie by Tony Mendoza. It is a hoot. E

New Macbook loaded superdrive and 4 gigs memory. It replaced my iBook and G4 tower. Mostly using it as a tower with a 20" lcd monitor.
Wow is this thing fast. Handles my printer and scanner, 2 external hard drives and a Wacom tablet with ease.

I got (for myself) the Luminous Landscape DVD of his interview with Clyde Butcher. I can definitaly recommend it to every photographic artist wannabee.
Posted by: Bill Mitchell | Wednesday, 26 December 2007 at 06:54 PM
Yeah, for X-Mas I cancelled my Nikon D3 order - I had been waiting since Sept. 6. The thing is too expensive as a landscape tool - hopefully the rumoured Nikon full frame >20MP will get me there. I am now scouring eBay for a nice 6x9 or 4x5 film tool. So for X-Mas, I'm back to basics!
Posted by: Mark | Wednesday, 26 December 2007 at 06:56 PM
I bagged three superb photography books: Gerry Badger's The Genius of Photography, Stepthen Shore's The Nature of Photographs, and The tony Ray-Jones monograph. That's me entertained for the next month!

What I got? The most precious thing of all - some free time to actually take pictures and to sift through, post-process and post them. And next week, with the whole country closed for New Years, I expect to get through a lot of my backlog.
Posted by: Janne | Wednesday, 26 December 2007 at 08:00 PM
I didn't get an awful lot photo related, but I did get some more Eneloop batteries. After playing around with a lot of batteries, these are without a doubt my favorites. Combine the benefits of a rechargeable and an alkaline and the result is the Eneloop. It's the only brand I'll use in my K100D now.
Posted by: Chris | Wednesday, 26 December 2007 at 08:10 PM
A couple of cool things. An Apple Cinema display, which I more or less asked for, and it's just great. But also (off photo-topic, but just completely cool) a turntable that outputs USB. So I can take all the old vinyl, from my late 60s college years, and flea markets since, and play them, and get them into iTunes and onto the iPod! Coolest toy I have even dreamed about in a while.

Does getting a new/old Nikon D200 and NEW fast, super wide primes from KEH count? (20/f2.8 and 35/f2)
Posted by: Rob White | Wednesday, 26 December 2007 at 08:47 PM
I received a Nikkor 35mm f2 lens that I've been playing with all day. I also managed to add Black Saint and tha Sinner Lady to my vinyl collection. At this point I don't know which is more fun.

Colorvision Spyder3Elite monitor calibration setup. 'tis a substantial improvement on their earlier Spyder2 in both electronics and software. Works well with new H-P w2207 LCD monitor that came the day before.

Well it's only marginally photo related, but my folks got me a 15" MacBook Pro laptop.
For the last year, I have been trying to weigh getting a new laptop (the old one is eight years old and has booting issues) or a 300 mm f2.8 Canon lens. With a new laptop, the choice got a whole lot easier.

I got a copy of Driftless: Photographs From Iowa by Danny Wilcox Frazier. It's a great book full of gritty black and white photographs documenting everyday life in the midwest. A nice surprise.
Posted by: Joseph Vavak | Wednesday, 26 December 2007 at 10:27 PM
Jeez, what a coincidence. Like Karl I, too, got myself a Mamiya RZ67 with a couple of used lenses, a couple of backs, an alternate fresnel screen, and a tilt/shift adapter for it. Back to the future, eh? Actually I've wanted to take a whirl with this camera for quite a while. I have a particular project in mind for this camera, at least initially.
My lovely wife gave me David Plowden's new book "Vanishing Point". It's positively absorbing.
Posted by: Ken Tanaka | Wednesday, 26 December 2007 at 10:57 PM
I got a flurry of visitors to my blog, coming from a certain photography blog. Bandwidth went from ~600MB used on the 22nd to 8GB on the 23rd. Funny, actual page hits only doubled or so, meaning that people actually *looked* at the photos.
Thanks Mike!

Got the book "Master Lighting Guide for Portrait Photographers". And a Black's Gift card.
And the chance to do a family portrait for a couple of good friends. It makes me really happy to get their trust into doing it.

Film. 20 rolls of dirt-cheap Arista.edu... planning on going through it like a hay through a horse when I go down to Boston for New Years and New York for the new year.
I also got to give some great gifts to my family and friends, which was by far the most enjoyable thing. I bought all of my books at local bookstores, and failing that, through the amazon (evil!) links on TOP. Support local businesses, or TOP!!

USB turntable?
I got one for my kids (heh-heh...) for Christmas:
http://www.ion-audio.com/turntables
This was after my younger son (who's now 11) had been playing a bunch of my old LPs and, when he came upon my Sticky Fingers album said... "look dad... it's interactive!"
It's really cool, works well, plugs into a regular amp as well as the USB port... and hey... a lot of us listen to tunes while doing photo stuff... so it's *sorta* related...
Posted by: Jeff Curto | Thursday, 27 December 2007 at 01:14 AM
Well, being one of those OCD types that protects his not-so-cheap lenses with cheap uv filters I was pleased to get some nice multi-coated filters to begin upgrading. Also a couple of books, one on photoshop, one on lighting and a gift card for B&H. And I bought the PS CS3 upgrade for myself Now all I need is time and the fortitude to get out and shoot in this winter weather...

Mike, these things are really nasty, you wouldn't want to put your precious vinyl anywhere near one.
Oh yes, for Christmas I got a very good Man Ray biography and a Willy Ronis calendar.

The book "Looking East: Portraits by Steve McCurry".
Also, I got myself an underwater housing for the Canon G9 (Christmas is swimming season around these parts! :-) ).

Thought I'd do my good deed for the year, so with grubby book voucher in hand I clicked through to Amazon U.K. Searching on Vanishing Point brought up a lot of titles, its a popular bookname, but inputting the authors name brought up the right one. Sixty squids ? Wow, a lot of moolah for a book. ($120 roughly)Not exactly an impulse buy. Out of curiosity I checked on Amazon.com. Hmmmm. $63. Big difference. Someones profiteering. At least they show the £ worth marginally more than the $. Adobe, who I now hate, have the reverse. Buying from them the $ is worth more then the £

An Olympus Zuiko Digital 7-14mm 1:4 Ultra-Wide Angle lens.
And it's one of the most amazing bits of glass I've ever used. Sharp, wide, and remarkably good at controlling barrelling and other distractions...
Unfortunately, it also takes in SO much of the scene that it has become apparent that my skills at metering are... Less than I thought they were.
Time to brush up on that then! :-)

Just two things this year. A small swiss army knife (Classic SD) and a Nikon D-300. Totally unexpected. Two things were enough.

I wish I had a woman giving me presents like that for xmas.
Apart from that my brother got me a Minolta X-500 which was stolen from me 3 months ago. Now all I'll have to get is a 28mm f/2.8 lens which was attached when it was stolen, although I might have a look on the 24mm f/2.4 as well.

I guess I should have also pointed out that if you already have a turntable, cartridge and pre-amp you like, 8^) you should go for a FireWire Audio interface like the FirePod. That, Garageband, and maybe Audacity are all you need to put albums on iTunes:

About the USB turntable - the most important thing with digitally recording vinyl is the digital converter. I've used cheapo converters that were super easy to use (Griffin's IMic) and the recording quality was dismal - no low end at all. So I would research a bit about the digital converters used in the various USB turntables (ION, Numark, and Stanton) as that makes a big difference as to how your digitized music will sound. I'm also trying out digital recorders that record at a higher frequency and bit rate (Samson H-2), a dedicated stand alone Sony CD recorder that a friend has that records at 24-bit, and finally using different software to record right onto a computer card at higher frequencies and bit rates. The bottom line is just because it creates a digital music file doesn't mean its going to be a good one. I want to get the process right at the start so I don't have to redo it later.

Mr Johnston: some of us are wondering about your own photography-related Christmas stuff. One of the things my wife and I decided to treat ourselves to this year was Amazon's UK version of the Prime delivery service. Your affiliate links came a little late for us last year but we'll be clicking through from now. Your site is one of the web's highlights and knowing that it gets a little from Amazon purchases we make makes me more likely to purchase from Amazon. I'm glad you decided to ignore the cynics on this one.

Summicron-M 75mm 2.0
A little splurge by myself. Whenever I see my grandpa (only once or twice per year), I try to get a couple portraits taken of him. He just passed 90 years old and is slowing down considerably. Not sure how many more portraits I will get to take. And Leica M lenses keep going up in price (this lens goes up $300 on Jan 1) so the timing seemed right. First new M lens I've bought!

I also received a 4 DVD set of MGM Film Noir. Some nice photography in film noir. So how's that for trying to shoe-horn my Christmas into this thread. (Also, as music is the most persistent ot thread on this blog--which I appreciate, btw--I thought I might get away with it.)

I got myself a 50/1.5 Zeiss Sonnar in M-Mount. New glass is fun. But mostly I like watching the kids over the holidays. So I got my family down to NYC to see the rest of my family and a lot of friends. And the Sonnar had to come down for the visit too . . . so now there are 8 GB of new data to edit and sort.

A Nikon F "Apollo" body from near the end of production (73XXXXX) with a plain prism that is probably older because it has a square eyepiece. And the Billie Holiday "Stormy Weather" four CD set -wow!

Battery grip for the D300 - now I can motordrive through action at even more hard drive-eating speeds! Protective wraps for stuff that doesn't go smoothly into slots. Auxiliary case for flashes and such (which will paradoxically also help me leave some stuff at home when I want to travel light).
Also, time with family and pictures of them that will never be "art" but will always count just that little bit more...

Late ... actually spent little time online during the holidays (and loved being away from the computer !) Got "The Photographers Eye" and Plowden's "Vanishing Point" from a wishlist I built in part from this site. On the giving side, had a pair of 32" square canvas prints done (for my wife) at simplycanvas.com - each is a 4x4 grid of family pics from the last 5 years. Took quite a bit of time picking from my favorites ones that could be cropped square, then arranging them nicely. We're very happy with the result.
Posted by: Dennis | Tuesday, 01 January 2008 at 08:39 PM
Probably a bit late for this comment, but -Michael Kenna's 20 Year Retrospective, Gerry Badger's The Genius of Photography and a couple of rolls of Neopan. Also picked up 18 rolls of film from my sisters wedding processed and scanned - first wedding I have covered. Now the work starts - hand printing the b+w, getting the colour printed, and making the book!

Got to see the Ansel Adams and the Annie Liebovitz shows at the Corcoran in DC (and the Hopper). Got a gorillapod, and got the Squeeze the Diallou book (thanks for the tip) which will help here too. Also snagged a Spyder monitor and printer calibration doodad (but that hasn't arrived yet) and a set of Epson pigment inks.
Managed not to get the G9; still waiting for the Sigma.
