I just spent $750 at B&H on camera equipment and it didn't even include a new lense...sighhh. This is the most expensive hobby ever.

Need to get back to selling old, unused equipment on ebay...

still dont compare to home theatre price.....u can get £20,000 projectors designed for home use..heh (um, US$37,000 give or take i think)...then you delve in to the Mark Levinson price level of sound equipment and things really make buying your house seem like a casual bit of shopping....lol

..and you can buy MF Digital backs for 50k and up. How about a 1200mm lens for 90k? It's really not a whole lot different.
