    Default Christmas Present ideas- Wife

    Looking for any ideas for a Christmas present for the wife this year and thought more than just myself could benefit from this idea thread.

    My wife already has an iPad, doesn't do much jewelry, and I'm not into buying her cloths or shoes. I'm thinking about buying her a class for a DSLR camera class along with a new wide angle lense for the rebel t3i. She wants to learn more about the camera and I think those lenses are sweet.

    anyone have better? Thanks for the help.

    A new vacuum cleaner?

    Girlscouts? Hmmm, I don't know... I think it's kinda dangerous to teach young girls self esteem and leadership skills.

    Send her to the class. Think how nice your guns & accessories will look when posted in the Trading post section.

    Funding of a spa day? I've had great success with that in the past.

    Does she already have a 50mm lens? My wife bugged me for a 'nifty fifty' (her phrase) for a while before she got it.

    Front runners so far in order..... Divorce papers, vac cleaner, sammich maker.

    She doesn't have a 50mm. Jim makes an excellent point too although it didn't make me laugh as much as those listed above.

    every photographer that I've spoken with (~20 semi-pro/serious amateurs) has a fast 50mm no zoom lens.

    The dslr class is a good idea also.
