Looks like Walt Disney threw up...

A technicolor yawn, so to speak.

And I'm a Pentax fan. Oh well...

Wow, that's even uglier than the white M8. Why would anyone use a Lomo-worthy color scheme on a quality DSLR? Maybe it's the Dora the Explorer model, or something

Just curious... what does W.D. have to do with Leggo?

On the bright side, you'd never have a security guard at a concert stop you going in with it on the grounds that it was a 'professional-looking' camera. If you could bear to be seen in public with it, that is.

Discussed in another thread, which started out with the same camera available in 10+ different colours, where one can mix and match the grip and body colour. Yukk (in both cases)

 

[Andy Kibber]

I kinda like it 🙂

 

[Pickett Wilson]

Stealth camera. You definitely won't look like a pro. 😉

 

[Spider67]

But that could be actually used as camouflage.....Reminds me of a Gary Larson Cartoon about a clour blind designer

Ah, I am not very familiar with Lego, and didn't recognize the toy soldier as a Lego creation. The color scheme makes sense in this context, but is still horrid

Hipsters would DIE for this thing if they sold it in North America!

I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with lego, though. I remember reading about how that robot was the inspiration for the colour scheme; I think he's pretty popular in Japan (and I believe this is a Japan only release).

But I love it. Makes me happy to see a DSLR company doing something different for once! Can't say I'm surprised that it's pentax, either.

A true Lego camera would be awesome. I don't hate this design, but Lego's version would be much cooler.

Will be marketed by Playschool as "My First DSLR."

 

[Al Patterson]

I'm waiting for the Samsung version...

Yeah, I guess that the latte spills would be harder to see against this background😀

No, you're right. The toy soldier has nothing to do with Lego. They don't make stuff like that.

Looks more like a NASCAR influence from here. Sitck a number on the sides, and let's go racin'!

It would look cute on the bookshelf, but, no, not around my neck...I do have a small vain streak. 😉

started buying loud pink roll-aboards. She claims that in a vast sea of uniform black samsonite, no one will miss the loud pink suitcase.

When I was a road warrior, my rollaboard was standard black, mainly because I only bought the very best luggage (because it lasts, others don't, not to be trendy). My wife gave me a nice large florescent fabric tag that I put on the outside of the bag - very hard to miss - which also said "NOT YOURS" in block letters. Got a few chuckles, and yes, once I removed it from a man who had 'mistaken it' for his own. Yeah, sure.

She dresses in black . Always. Everything.

She dresses in black . Always. Everything.

I've read that when a woman is wearing red shoes she's sending a signal.

I LOVE it!

Next time I am doing a camera paint job, I know what to do now. 😀

Women wear shoes? Never noticed.
