I’m setting myself up for disappointment… I just know it. (OR: A shopping list)

Yesterday, I noticed that the camera I have been wanting since last fall was finally up for preorder on several Japanese sites. After pondering this fact for about 15 minutes, I went ahead and preordered one. HOPEFULLY, I’m one of the first 5000 people who thought to do this, because they’re only manufacturing 5000 of these a month and I really would like to go ahead and just give the local camera purveyor fistfuls of cash and walk off happily with a lovely new camera by the end of this month.

So in preparation for what will either be a moment of climactic excitement or devastating disappointment, I’ve been looking up what shiny accessories I could get for that shiny camera. And thus we have a shopping wish list (in order of most to least attainable):

  1. An 8GB SD card… or two.
  2. A carrying case of some sort.
  3. A lens protector filter thingy.
  4. A polarizing lens filter.
  5. An extra battery.
  6. 4/3s to Micro 4/3s lens adapter.
  7. The ZUIKO DIGITAL 25mm F2.8 pancake lens.
  8. That fancy hotshoe mic attachment maybe…
