If you had $1,000 ...

Not quite as fun as the BNL song with seven figures, but in today’s newsroom, being able to spend one large is still pretty exciting. If it came to you, what would you do with the money? No junkets allowed, though. Just tools.

Would you buy:

- 10 audio recorders for news reporters
- one high-quality video camera
- 3 low-end video cameras
- 5 digital cameras
- some mix of these?
- or something totally different?

We had this discussion this week in our newsroom in Tacoma and there was very little agreement on which way to go (should $1,000 drop into your collective lap).

What would you do with the money?
