What Canon stuff did you get for Christmas

[FEBS]

I got myself a complete Lee filter system with 4x4 and 4x6 filters. I also did order (it's on its way but not yet here) 3 x YN600EX-RT and a YN-E3-RT

None!
I'd asked really nicely for a 7D2 as well, and I'm sure I've been Good this year...
Oh well, I'll just have to buy it myself then
Then again, did treat myself a month ago to an EF-S 17-55 f2.8, so I shouldn't complain.

I must have the wrong set of relatives, and definitely the wrong kind of wallet. Didn't get anything photography related or Canonesque, not even when I turned 50.
Oh well, at least I can still put some food on the table and pay my bills another month.

Congratulations to all of you who are more fortunate!

Ditto and +1

I didn't get anything photo related... But I had a very nice holiday. I'm not complaining at all because I told the wife to get something for herself and she didn't...

There was noting under the Festivus Pole. Only a bit of tinsel, it was distracting.

I was a VERY good boy this year (at least I thought so!)...so I bought:

A refurb SL1/100d with 18-55 IS STM from Canon Direct with a PowerShot A1400 thrown in for free. Gave it to my daughter as a Christmas present.

A 16-35 IS also from Canon Direct for $715 and a quick buyer for my old 17-40 to boot. The upgrade to the 16-35 ended up only costing me $115. Been lusting after this lens for a while even though my 17-40 was a good copy.

I've been wanting a small crop sensor camera to complement full frame ever since I sold my 40D; never thought I'd get a Rebel, but it's a great little camera. I'm loving it! (apologies to McDonald's)...

I bought myself some shares in a few ETFs. I was going to buy a bunch of Canon stuff, but I figured I could wait a little longer. CES is in a week or so, no?

 

[LukasS]

I bought myself 7D II and got for Christmas from my GF 85mm 1.8 and some accessories for atelier.

 

[Viggo]

I get to hand in the 50 Art for repair :

 

[Maximilian]

what did everybody else get that they are ecstatic to have?

Short answer: Nothing!

Long answer:
We have an agreement in my family, that only the children get presents and the adults are more kind and helpful to each other than the rest of the year (I really like that).

 

[Tanispyre]

I bought the 24mm EF-S STM as a stocking stuffer, however when I opened it up the box was empty. They must have accidentally sold me the box for the display model. The lens is so small and light, that it didn't even cross my mind the the box might be too light.

 

[kurcobolja]

This year none, as there is nothing interesting or new for me.

Just photos and memories using my existing Canon gear

No Canon stuff bought for Christmas but sold one of my 7Dc. Plan to replace it in the next two weeks with a 7D2. Hoped to see some sort of a slight holiday deal on it by then or will go for the regular price.

Would like 7D2 before the end of Jan.

I got a gift certificate for a high resolution full frame body...

The Canon presents come after the feats of strength ;D

 

[erjlphoto]

My third, count them....One....Two....Three Canon 6D body.
Also got my Second Canon 24-70 f/L is lens.

Who so many? Because the first 6D I had to sell for medical expenses of a loved one.
Three months ago I replaced it and got the 24-70 f/4L as well (previously had the 24-105).
December 10th, my new apartment got ripped off and off went the Camera, lens and accessories.

Well, I liked both of the previous iterations of this model. Hoping third time is a charm and a keeper!!!

Had insurance, also now have a new alarm....though not made by Canon ;D

 

[Quasimodo]

As it was, my camera christmas presents to myself was entirely non-canon I do love my Canon gear, and feel I pretty much have what I need. It was time to get the small but helping Mamiya gear, such as a new diopter for the waist level finder, a grip, and a cable release That is where my heart is in these days, but as far as making money from shooting, the canon gear will be used in two days
