  What lenses do you have for it? You may want to consider getting additional lenses.

  You need the following:

1. Another body.
2. Another flash.

These are needed as back-ups in case something goes wrong with the ones you have.

3. Flash bracket to get the flash off the camera.
4. Sync. cord to connect the flash to the camera. (Get 2)
5. Something to diffuse the flash. There are so many things on the market that this is simply a matter of personal choice.
6. 400 speed film. 800 speed is too grainy and should be used only for pictures where flash is not allowed.
