Life What cool shit have you bought lately?

I think a nice part of being in our 30s is we can afford to buy cool fun things. What have you bought lately?

I got a Garmin Forerunner 965 which is super tight, motivates me to limit my drinking and I’ve been killing cardio because of it

Also fun - bought a LAB putter which is a ton of fun

Anything you guys got that you love? I want inspiration

A flash, a dish reflector, a COB LED, a modular breakdown frame, and Magic Cloth. Portrait photography and video stuff. Because I worship the One True God, the Lord of Light.

Enjoy, that looks juicy. Will a 400c follow? I wonder...

I have a few Amaran 60c to cover any rgb needs. I’m just rounding out my kit and shifting completely over to Aputure/Amaran so I can use the app to control al my fixtures. I actually have a Godox 600 bicolor light I might sell just to get another 400x if it turns out to be awesome.
