What's a good christmas gift for a video production nut for under $250?
My parents want to know what I want for Christmas, and I have no idea. I am open to anything that would help make my video's better and/or easier to shoot. Any suggestions?

Manfrotto 3021 tripod + 501 head = ~ $300
I know, already a little bit above the $250 limit. But still a pretty good deal. B&H also has some setups like this, and sometimes even used - that could save some money too.

Wow, there are a lot of things.... how about computer accessories?
• Pair of 5" studio monitor speakers • firewire drive(s) from $100 up depending on capacity • RAM upgrade for your computer • I saw a 19" widescreen LCD for $200 the other day • Wacom graphics tablet Or for that matter, just visit B&H Photo's website and you will have no problem finding $250 worth of stuff that you want :-) (BTW, please don't post links to vendors unless they are DVinfo sponsors) |
