New Camera Toys!

So after selling my old car (1991 RX-7), I finally managed to make the following camera upgrades:

First is the lens: it is a Nikon camera lens with the focal length ranging from 18mm to 200mm at a relatively cheap price of ~$650. Although not the perfect lens and not quite as fast as other more expensive lens, it allows great range and flexibility.
Then I bought a flash to accompany the lens upgrade: Nikon Speedlight SB-600. Not quite the top of the line flash, but this simple flash has enough functionality to serve in most practical cases. And still quite affordable.
Lastly, I bought a set of HOYA filters, though I have yet to try out the other filters included in the set, including the polarizer.

So ultimately, my RX-7 was transformed(!?!) into a much smaller set of camera equipments. Have you ever heard of anyone selling their car to buy camera lens???
