Anyone get any photo toys from Santa?

I got a Pentax SMCP-FA 28-105mm f/3.2-4.5. I've only taken a few pictures with it so far but its a pretty nice carry lens. Very small and lightweight for its range. Hope santa was good to everyone else!

the FZ30 is a nice camera... the big brother to my fz5

and the canon 50/1.8 is an absolute steal! what a great lens and also very inexpensive!

my FZ5 was a present to myself... as was the MINI... boy I've been good to myself this year

Hooray for bokeh! I'm hoping to get my hands on the pentax equivalent soon.

One of my Santas gave me a Pentax Optio S6 ultra compact, with 6.0 megapixels. I'm a total amateur and proud of it, but I love to have a teeny, tiny digicam! This one fits into an Altoid tin!

That's a cool lense. I have the 50 mm f/1.4 (similar lens) and it takes awesome low light shots. I've gotten pictures with it that I didn't think were possible.

My camera goody this Christmas was the Canon 15 mm Fish-Eye lens. Can't wait for a clear sunny day to get some fisheye Mini photos.

that's a great camera clo! it's one of my favorite small cameras by far... the high resolution view screen on the back is beautiful! I'm half tempted to get one or something like it just to keep in the car for the impromptu shots that may pop up. they're so easy to use!

Mark, I only got a B400. So now I'm going to invest in the B800 set. I've only had it a few days so I'm just experimenting with family pics.

BTW, thanks for the referral to Automotivephoto site. I've registered and it looks to be very informative.
