Serious Christmas ideas thread!

Help!

What do you get your favourite togger for a surprise?

I am being advised by a specialist team ( thanks guys) but am willing to throw it out there . I have about £150/ £250 if Dad chips in, to spend on a decent flash gun or tripod...or an exciting editing suite. I have no clues to give but what would you like on that kind of budget.

TIA.

Re: Serious Christmas ideas thread!

This is a tricky one to answer Vikki, a lot depends more info:

What sort of photography do they like to do?

What kit have they got already?

I guess safe options are:
tripod,
flash,
macro lens (always good fun),
Good camera bag,
Some Filters maybe: CP, + couple of ND,
Removable USB harddrive to backup those precious photos.
Kit 1
1DSmkIII & 1DmkIV
Canon EF70-200L f/2.8 IS
Canon EF100L macro f/2.8 IS
Canon EF85L f/1.2 mkII
Canon EF24-105L f/4 IS
Canon EF300L f/2.8 IS
Canon EF17-40L f/4
