Just bought a new camera...

Hey I just got a real bargain on a Canon 5D Mark IV with 24-70mm f/2.8L and am wondering what accessories I need to get . Memory cards? Tripod?

Photo below of the actual camera and lens, with its professional previous owner. He could use a shave and appears to have a problem with body hair, but you can tell he's a pro because he wears a photo vest, color coordinates with his camera gear and even has a Canon tattoo on his foot. (Gotta respect that level of commitment! )

Alan, you’re gonna love the 5D4 - lots of improvements over the 5D3 which I had. Higher resolution, anti-flicker, better DR and low light/high ISO performance, WiFi…. The bear - I dunno.

I have a 5DIV as my landscape, low light and photo-blind camera. It is a great camera. I almost wish we had a little one or grandchild to get that Canon Teddy Bear for, it is cute.

Where did you get the bargain? I am a little leary of some on line bargains since there are reports of the "Looters" (I am not PC or Woke.) selling stuff on the net. Supposedly the FBI even found some people who are organizing the "smash and grab" lootfests just to sell on line.

Perhaps Santa will bring one for you. You just have to walk around the house chanting, "I like that bear." A photo of it placed all around the house. Leaving Santa plenty of clues as to where it can be found.

This method always worked for me!!!

I'm not too sure he really did get a new camera, he just said that as part of his story. If he really did get the Canon 5D Mark IV why isn't it listed on his signature line like the Canon 5DII and 7DII. Or maybe he just hasn't gotten around to updating his signature line yet.

"Miniature" Canon 5D Mark IV and 24-70mm L lens. I was wondering where to get appropriately "miniature" SD cards, "miniature" tripods and "miniature" flashes ().

Sorry, I thought "photo of the actual camera and lens" and the smileys scattered throughout the post were strong enough clues!
