With some news that I had received from a very generous person......... If $10 grand was to be given to you for your lil company what would you buy?

Mind you I have a 2009 iMac that is looking in the teeth, Canon 60 D, 18-55 kit lens, Tokina 11-16, Sigma 70-300 (cheapie version), Canon 50 mm (plastic), Azden on cam wireless, Zoom H4n, Rode VMP, various other lil do adds.

I'm thinking off the bat since iMac takes foreeeeeeever to render...that has to be the first upgrade. 5K? Then a couple of GH4's, A7s?

Please discuss.

I just upgraded to a 5K iMac and love editing my GH4-footage on it. I really do. And it sounds like a faster mac would really do you good.

Other things I love are my dedolights, my turtle-rig, my skaterdolly. A really lightweight tripod is useful, too.

How about post-production tools? Any needs? For example Neatvideo is so good to have. Or some decent audio-cleaning software.

This will be an interesting thread :)
