I want video editing software, a GoPro Hero 5 Black camera, and a pair of non-polarized prescription sunglasses. I don’t know which to choose.

If it were me , I'd ask for software but sunglasses are essential for me so it might be them

I already have sunglasses, I just want non-polarized for photography.

If you have no real preference then let the gift giver surprise you

I do have a preference. I want the GoPro camera. I do need editing software so maybe I can get that anyway and my glasses have transitions lenses so maybe I can get by with that.

Probably gopro then. Sunglasses can be inexpensive and more an essential like shoes, so to me that's not the same as asking for a gift type item like a gopro.

That's what I really want. The sunglasses would be pretty expensive being prescription in addition to the fact I already have some. I feel like I could get the software possibly in addition to the gopro, because you can't really make videos if you can't edit them.

I'd ask for the camera if I were you.

Oh yeah I forgot the prescription part. I'd say gopro and editing software is a single package deal like a scarf and gloves.

Just don't let this happen



or this
