Gitzo Tripod
What photography equipment would you buy with 2 000 $?
I have the Nikon D 7000
I have the 18-105 , the 70-300 and the 50 f1/8. My three lenses
I also have an external flash, the SB-600
I also have a Gitzo Tripod, a trigger release, UV filters, cleaning products.. I have all that
I’ll be going shopping over the weekend, and I am seriously considering buying the 60 mm macro lens for 559.99

And if I buy that lens, I’ll obviously buy it a UV filter.
Do I need to buy a special flash for the Macro lens since you are so up close when you take pics ?
I’m also going to be buying a 5 in 1 reflector, A diffusor to go over my flash..
So if you can tell me what you would buy for 2000 $. I’m also considering a ND filter for those really sunny says where I want to go and get really slow shutter speeds.
And I’d like to buy backdrops to take pictures at home, can I do that without spending thousands and thousands of dollars. Thanks
I love spending other peoples money 
If you are going to get a macro lens, I would get a ring light to go with it… http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/410481-USA/Nikon_4803_R1C1_Wireless_Close_Up_Commander.html
As far as diffusers go, I am partial to the Gary Fong Lightsphere II. http://www.nikonians.org/html/resources/non-nikon_articles/lightsphere/
When it comes to filters, remember “you get what you pay for”…in other words avoid the ebay/amazon filters for $7.99. I prefer Tiffen, Hoya, B+W, and Cokin.
For backgrounds, it varies. I shop at the local fabric store for basic materials ($1.99-$3.99/yd) and the local camera shop carries a nice selection of 10′x12′ backgrounds ($60-$250/each)
