christmas present for an art student

[therieldeal]

Help!

A friend of mine is an artist, she does incredible paintings which my girlfriend really liked.... so she was working on a custom painting for me - but she told me yesterday it will not be finished in time for Christmas. That’s fine, I can give it to her for her birthday instead.... but now I have a week to come up with a Christmas gift!!

My girlfriend is an art student, and I don’t know what to get her for Christmas. She loves photography, shes a photography major actually. Any suggestions? She's buying a canon digital rebel soon, I was thinking maybe a lens for it or something? Anyone?

buy her the rebel and then she can buy the lens later

[therieldeal]

[90prtege]

get her a memory card for the camera

[atomicEGT]

Dude, do you have any idea how much good lenses are? Most are close to the price of the camera.

Buy her a nice tri.pod and a bunch of memory cards, haha.

[therieldeal]

she has a nice tr!pod already, but the memory is a good idea fo' sho'!

thanks guys

btw... i dont know a damn thing about cameras or lenses.

i think you should look up all the gizmos they make for her new cam.
or you can get her new underwear thats always a plus.

[jumpncrash]

yeah, cuz new underwear is a gift for you too

The gift that keeps on giving.

"fo sho" on the memory as you say. Get some high speed stuff, fastest you can find.

maybe some gradient lens filters.

bought her a purse

i'm going to wait till she has the camera before i buy her camera ****. i dont know exactly how long it will be till she has it... from the sounds of things it may be a couple months actually. her birthday is in april... could always get camera stuff then!

[atomicEGT]

Did you buy her a huge purse to go with those huge sunglasses she has?

Oversized accessories FTW?

[therieldeal]

hey now, all the scene kids wear giant sunglasses. i figured you of all people would recognize this.

its a pretty big purse. but she always carries a fairly large purse/bag/thing, so i just went with something similar.
