I need your suggestion

Open

2 months from now I will be attending PAX prime but I do not have a decent camera and I'm thinking about getting a decent one like this so that I can take pictures of pretty..."sights" there.

I also want a tablet....'cuz I'm spoiled as fuck but it's probably the least of my priority..still want it though since I never got around to buy one.

And lastly, I recently got into making music. After almost 4 months of fiddling with Linux Multimedia Studio, I think I'm ready to make a big step and need to purchase a proper audio software like fruity loops

TL;DR, what should I get?

  • A camera to take picture of girls in cosplay at PAX prime for $549

  • Sony Xperia Z 32 Gb tablet for $445

  • Fruity Loops producer edition for $200

from what I read on several discussion boards, the life-time updates from image-line outmatches pirating fruity loops.

I just need a tablet for watching videos on the go, small demonstration to my group, and sth to tells me the recipe of sth when I'm cooking (sometime even I can't read my own handwriting).

pretty "sights" = booth babes?

Fruity Loops is good from all accounts I've ever heard about it, as for tablets, I was so interested in getting one, but I ended up not using it all that much (mainly wanted it for free classics, but it's hard for me to read a tablet when I have real books laying around that need read), so unless you're positive you'll use it a lot, I'd suggest maybe something a bit cheaper like the cheaper Kindle Fires or something

I used to share a room with a guy who owned a kindle fire and it was pretty okay though the appstore is limited to only from amazon appstore. I also heard quite a number of bad things on samsung tablet so samsung tab is out of the question. I often trust Sony since I was never disappointed by them....we'll see.

And yeah, pretty "sights" = booth babes.

Get the camera. take photos. take photos in "special" angles. sell special photos on the Japanese market. profit. Use profits to buy tablet.

Clearly skip all three. You should pay my bill instead.

No? Alright, I'd say a tablet if you think you would regularly use it. Hell, wish I had one.

Tell me Delta, is there a logic or a reason made by ur ISP on why there is a datacap on your internet? Is it a cost saving thing? 'cuz if it is, that's BS.

They claim the undersea lines. I claim them wanting to charve me more. Since my bill jumped up another $300 since my last check, my claim is likely more accurate.

I used to live in Asia and lots of time the cable on the seabed got cut due to ships sailing through it but the only problems caused by it was slower internet speed not a higher fee and there was absolutely no datacap.

I'd for the program to be honest. Unless you frequently take trips out on which you need a camera, it sounds like the camera would be a rare use item for you. The tablet you admit yourself is low priority so no vote on that one. I say get the program because it sounds like it's something you'll actually be using frequently and one from which you can develop your skills and find enjoyment.

Even though I live in a place that's supposed to be photogenic, I never felt the need to take pictures since I know it's there and I can just see it on my way home...strangely enough I have a polaroid that I usually bring to reunions (yeah I'm that hipster guy).

I do love composing music and FL studio is quite a program to have. Right now I just want to make sure I make the perfect choice on my only big expenditure in the summer.
