After my first paid job I will be getting the Cyber Syncs from PCB.

My last purchase of 2008 was a 5D Mark II, got it yesterday. My first purchase of 2009, will probably be an additional battery for it.

Olympus E-1 with Grip and 3 grip batteries was my last purchase of 2008 - I've got my eye on some Pentax 645NIIs that are for sale.

I spent a ton of money in 2008 > D200, D300, D700, many f/2.8 lens, built a in-home PRO Studio...For 2009, I have my eye on the Sony UPCR20L printer with wireless camera setup.

Two 8gig Extreme III SD cards for the M8 (New Years eve). Next conversions of Contarex 250/4.0 to EF mount and 21/4.5 to Leica M-mount.
