I am trying to build out my equipment for media production in 2025. I have built out the majority of the camera gear and now the computer and peripheral equipment are the next highest priorities. This is what the Christmas and birthday requests will be full of.
Videography Lenses
I have invested a lot into building out my gear the last couple years and only have a couple left that are needed for business use and then a handful that would be nice to have. These are the last two that are needed for utilizing on paid jobs.
Canon 100mm 2.8 lens
Canon 50-100mm 1.8
Lens for all around travel photography
Having obtained lenses for the majority of different types of commercial photography, one of the few lenses I have not yet acquired is a general lens for grab and go travel photography.
Commercial Livestreaming Production Hardware
I would like to start advertising professional livestreaming services for commercial clients. Before I can do that I need the proper hardware. This is the hardware needed for setting up mobile commercial livestreaming services on location.
This device has been discontinued and replaced by devices that require monthly subscription fees. The link below is to used ebay listings for this specific device that doesnt require additional monthly costs. The closer they look to the photo on I have posted here the better. The minimum required is the main white hub, but I will have to purchase the black boxes and the battery mount and usb adapter seperately unless all purchased together.
Video transmission system for livestreaming
One thing I have made money with in the past year is livestreaming. In order to add more ability to livestream for commercial purposes I need to upgrade my gear and ability to livestream wirelessly onsite. This is the required equipment for that task.
VR Gaming and Computing
Virtual reality gaming and computing headset. For interacting with the environment with augmented computing screens and has the ability to do virtual reality gaming.
External storage drive
There is always a need for more storage, as I am always capturing more data. These are the hard drives I use to store all my content and work from. So these will always be of great need.

Sports and Wildlife Photography Lens
One lens that I have yet to replace is a quality sports and wildlife photography lens. This lens is just that and would go to good use capturing wildlife and outdoor sports photogarphy.
Professional grade travel tripod
This is a tripod for travel. Lightweight carbon fiber that will keep the weight down and provide the stability of heavier tripods.
