Started 1 year, 7 months ago by DeSwitch
I belief more than half of these who voted had already doubled their spendings as this Poll started in 2002. Any way to update?

Re: How Much Have You Spent on your Equipment? Originally Posted by Spectrum Well, if you have no problem spending the entire amount mentioned above that makes you happy. Why not. But, the comprehensive studio lightings &amp; accesories with backdrops will set you back around 30k - 50k depending on which lighting system you will be purchasing. Not to mention, you will also need a floor space no less than 10mx14m &amp; 5m high ceiling...

Re: How Much Have You Spent on your Equipment? I suppose at the end of every year when the bonuses start coming, there is the urge to reward ourselves with something we like. And if photography is our hobby, it becomes natural that some of that money will be spent each year buying new gear. Its like never enough.
