I'm trying to get just kind of random "what ifs" from the people who own an AF100. Im sure this may be a beaten to death topic, I hope we people can at least enjoy letting their imaginations run a little.

Ok so you have the Af100, a pretty good editing station, maybe a few lenses, pretty much basic set up to at least be started. You have 10k to spend, what would you try to invest in to get your biggest bang for your buck? I realize 10k probably isn't enough in the long run, but hopefully I'm setting the limit high enough to start. The main focus is of course production for you, narrative films and music videos, maybe commercials, kind of just all encompassing production. (if you want to get specific to what you do, then thats cool also).

by invest It could mean purchase, rent, whatever, to help you grow or be sufficient for a decent legit production. Again i know 10k is low, but separate that idea from the actual production budget, this is just in house money to play with =p. Obviously I'm asking because I'm in that situation currently, but I've always been curious as to "what if setups"

Again you can be as specific or vague, really don't care, answer how you feel best.

If - as you say - I had a good set of lenses and an edit station already (but not much else), I'd go for this:

Plus a good set of sticks and head, like a Sachtler or Cartoni (if you don't have one) - or a Ki Pro Mini.

That should come in around $10K.

Good thing about that is, next camera you'll still have it and most likely the next two after that (well most of it).
