Awesome to the max. This Canon knows style.

How about this for an inconspicuous shooter? Still, if I had that much cash to burn I'd be tempted....

very cool but limited to shooting in the finest bistros-- anywhere else you might get punked.

will go perfectly with my gold teeth caps, "DUDE" bracelet, and my gold chain. *bling magnet*

a perfect companion for the twitter chick's companion http://www.break.com/usercontent/2009/12/twitter-chick-1514813 - the best music video of the year. 🙂

The Polish gilders did it again. Poshing up an honest classic... I wonder who would buy these...?

Looks very grand, but definitely not something I'd even consider taking out of my room.

 

[Bill58]

...and it's "oryginal".

 

[coelacanth]

I'm too boring for this serious bling.

I would! But I have no money....

you don't know Benny.

Benny, I say go for it. It will go very nicely with the rest of your gear. And, a big hit at the kopitiam, if I may add. 🙂

If you are short of cash, sell me a couple of those ordinary 85s and 50s. 🙂

Imagine at a local RF gathering where most would share and compare notes on gear as they are being passed around and you take out this bling machine. The looks of horror, distaste and disbelief as you whipped out this little thing would be really something! Not quite US$1500, but still I'm sure the expressions captured will be memorable. And it takes pictures too! 😀

Cheers,

Nope. Got in trouble with the missus already for the recent excessive purchase. She can't understand why I bought the IIF2 when "it's exactly the same as the other camera" (IVSb)....

I am thinking of letting go of my 85mm sonnar. You interested? It's a Zeiss M mount. Brand new in box and unused. My spare copy.

Cheers,

Gee, no red leather on that thing?
Almost had me but for that.

kind of a shame, defacing a nice camera with crappy gold plating...who would want this thing?

No, Mr Bond. I expect you to say cheese.

 

[raid]

The set should sell for $750 maybe. It is "gold crap" or "crap gold" or "crap camera set" or "see how rich I am pretending to be set".

Now that we have set aside, I would say that an original very clean Canon camera and lens would appear more worth to me than this ... crap.

Go and buy it???????

 

[rbiemer]

Offer enough lees to cover the cost of re plating in black chrome?

[xayraa33]

they should have left it unmolested.

 

[Platon]

Raid nailed it! This is crap. This is a very vulgar camera.

 

[ray*j*gun]

Ugh....ugh.....ugh it'll look like tarnished gold crap in a year.
