Sweet Lens
Awesome quality lens, optics are great, and the f/2.8 really helps in darker situations. The only problems I find are that on DX or crop sensor cameras the fisheye effect seems to not be as effective and creates more of a vaguely distorted image. But when used with a FX, full frame or 35mm film camera the results are phenomenal. The lens has actually stayed on my 35mm film since I bought it.

Manfrotto 776YB Monopod
Depends on how much you get it for, I got it for around $35 so I'm extremely happy with what I got. Although, even at retail being around $55-$65 it is very reasonable. It is lightweight, and extends a lot longer than I first though it would. The only reason I gave the ease of use a 4 out of 5 is that because the top part where the camera screws on to is a little weird to get used to at first, since unlike tripods or many tripod heads there is no screw you have to spin the camera to lock into the socket.
