Re: £200 Jessops vouchers. What would you buy?

I think a new lens will probably give you the most right now Dan.

The only other thing I can think of is a decent monitor if you haven't already got one.

Re: £200 Jessops vouchers. What would you buy?

Not sure if you have one but I know I'd like a battery grip.

A monopod would be good for me too as it's easy to strap to the backpack for hillwalking.

How about some filters ?

How a about a Spyder 2 Pro or similar. It's amazing how may peoples monitors are not calibrated correctly. It is a vital link in the image chain.
