Best addition to kit under $100
Apr 5, 2018 12:10:31 #
So I went to a coin kiosk and turned my spare change into an Amazon gift card rather than pay the 12% commission for a cash voucher. I decided I wanted to add something, preferably fun, but also useful to my camera bag.
My camera is an 80D. I've got a 430 EX II speedlight, 18-135 kit lens, EF-S 10-18mm and an EF-S 55-250. I also have a pluto trigger, but not the water drop kit as of yet.
The first things that came to mind was to put it toward a remote flash trigger setup or maybe a Wacom tablet for post processing. Whatever it is has to be compact as I'm still moving around a bit with no permanent address since Irma came through.
Ideas?
Thanks,
-Ed

The title of the post and question inside is apples and rocks.

It might be that question marks, "?", are not allowed in the titles? I don't know.

Get what you need to do what you want that you can’t do with what you have.

A remote flash trigger? But your 80D has a built-in ability to fire an off-camera flash. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epAO4ezPzrE.

You need a fast lens. Get a used 50mm f/1.8.

Creativity and common sense - both are free, but judging from what I see on a regular basis, very hard to come by. . .
