Thank you for pouring salt into the wound.

Don't really need it, can't really afford it, would be a struggle to

Every time I go out to photograph birds with the NikCanonistas in my
nature photography club, my puny little 300/2.8 just seems so inadequate.
I have one.
Before I got it, I always felt at a loss, trekking thru Denali with my
longest lens, a 300mm FA f4.5 and converter, always knowing I could use
more glass. I picked mine up new, and have taken it to Denali several
times and was able to get some outstanding images - some of which I've
posted here and at the Pentax Gallery. My last trip with it to Denali is
probably the last time I'll take it there as it's just too heavy for me
to carry for any distance. I use it now around the house to capture
birds around the yard and for the occasional car trip where I can shoot
along side the car.
I've had a few offers to buy it, but I don't see me selling it any time
soon

There are several pieces of gear that are very high on my list, exceed
my current budget, but depending on money availability and need, I hope
to get before too long. I'm sure that most people on this list have a
similar list, and others might actually have the gear.
Other than that "Full-Frame" DSLR that Ricoh is supposed to finally debut
later this year, my list is pretty short ... or "long" depending on how
you look at it:
