If it doesn't have be something for photography consider these German Lebkuchen. It's soft gingerbread inside with a dark chocolate base and sugar glaze on top. They're delicious. Brandy filled chocolates are also good. I buy these every year.

A very good friend of mine did something very nice for our family and I would like to reciepicate with a gift in the $100-125 range. Trouble is, he is a D810 shooter and a long time photographer with just about everything he needs. Maybe some new gadget or something classic?
Any ideas greatly appreciated, thanks.

Maybe a gift certificate for a camera cleaning at local camera store. It’s always nice to have an excuse to visit the camera store and be able to touch new products

When I am in doubt, I tend to send cash. This advice might be even better. Some people like to open a box and enjoy the surprise,others not so much.
Cash is only appropriate at a bar mitzvah. Gift cards!

I rarely offer my opinion in the thread but I concur with my fellow members who suggested a gift card. Using B&H as an example, we have hundreds of thousands of items on our website which covers not only Photographic related items but include tens of thousands of Audio, Video, Computer and Home Entertainment products and their attendant accessories. I myself prefer receiving a gift card over a gift because it gives me a host of products from which to choose from. Additionally, we here who are into photography know all too well that no matter how much gear we have there is always something new that we would like but can't quite justify. And you would be surprised how many useful items you can buy for $125. As an example, I was always concerned about properly cleaning the front elements of my lenses without damaging the factory coating when one of my colleagues turned me on to ZEISS Lens Wipes (60-Pack) B&H # ZE60CBLW MFR # 000000-2127-721 and for less than 6 bucks I can stop worrying about it. That would still leave $119.00 left to spend on a $125 Gift Card.
I'd go with the Gift Card.
Best wishes for a Happy Holiday Season.
