Since a lot of fashion bloggers and makeup gurus have haul type posts –why can I? I made a little shopping trip the other day to pick up some accessories to use for upcoming test shoots. I think I might be coming down with a case of Gear Acquisition Syndrome (G.A.S.) but not for new pretty lens, mirror-less cameras or second bodies. Instead I’m looking for new toys that will serve both of practical uses and for switching things up during my photoshoots.
For example, drop clamps are the only thing that will allow me to hang lights of these typical yucky office ceiling tiles.

Matthews Drop Ceiling Scissor Clamp with Baby (5/8″) Pin
Avenger F1000 Pump Cup with Baby Swivel Pin
Gaffer’s Tape – 2.0″ x 55 Yards (Black)
Matthews Baby Ballhead Adapter
Arri Baby Pin (5/8″) with 3/8″ Thread
Steel Safety Cable, Black – 36″ (91cm)
Now why would I thrown down money on a haul that doesn’t involve pretty glass or a shiny new body? So that I could do this with my current D800.
and I saw this on my way out.. le sigh wishlist.
