What Photography Related Item Have You Bought or Sold This Week?

Had a friend reach out about some realty photography needs and realized, of course, that I didn’t have the right lens for work of that type. Boo hoo, let’s go shopping! Ended up with an RF 15-30mm. It’s not fast by any means, but it’s wide enough. Pretty cheap at $400 bucks….can’t beat it.

RF 100-400 for me, yesterday - got to play a little and it seemed pretty good, both in AF speed and as a semi-macro - will post something in the next few days.
 
I bought a PD Slide a few weeks ago, to go with my PD Clutch. I've only used it a few times, but already I love the quick-release mechanism.

My only complaint would be that the padded section is too stiff to bend in half, making it difficult to fold the strap as small as I'd like when it's not being used, but that's not a showstopper.

I might get another one, to replace the aging strap on my backup 5D mk III...
Peak Design products are awesome. I love my Slide as well as my Peak Design Cuff. I forgot my Clip...love that thing as well while moving around with a backpack.

The Clip was the first bit of PD kit that I bought. A great idea, and brilliantly engineered. Don't know how I managed without one for so long!
 
Just bought a secondhand RF 15-35 2.8 for the wife, looks brand new and she is well pleased - looking forward to Canada next year even more now ;-)
 
Well it’s not totally photography related but I bought and put together a standing desk for my editing work (and occasional video gaming or e-sports as the kids call it now)

I was at a model shoot a couple of days ago and my Godox XPro trigger failed. Pulling the battery didn't help, nor did percussive measures. Fortunately we were outdoors with great overcast lighting, and it was possible to get many good shots with natural light. Plus, I was able to borrow a trigger from others who were there. But it was scary, and I had shoots coming up in the next week.

Amazon to the rescue! In less than 24 hours I had a new Godox X3 trigger in my hands.

This little gem is the latest model with a nifty touch-screen interface. It features a Li-Ion battery, which can't be replaced when dead, so I have to be very mindful of its charge state.
