Paint your Digital Rebel Black...

[pn.md]

Found this on a Japanese website. Someone painted their 300D black. I guess he should've waited for the new Black 300D. Regrets now?

Pretty brave to take his 300D apart like that. I hope it's still functional... ;) :D

Pictures of how he painted it... ;)

That's pretty impressive, the only bit he got wrong was the Canon script on the pentaprisim.

Well, pentamirror actually.

Wow...take it apart like that just to paint it?

I dont think I would ever do that!...I know I would never do that!!!

To risky just for a color change :roll:

Holy cow! That's impressive. Dumb, but impressive. It brings to mind one big question.... Why?

[scooter]

need i say any more

[Lamplight]

Wow, that looks pretty good! I think I woud just save up a few hundred bucks and sell the Rebel and get a 10D, though. Or if the 300D is going to come in black, obviously that would be great. I wish they came in black now, because I would have gotten that instead of the standard silver.

Maybe I can paint my D30 orange and yellow....or green and blue...or...

*Gasp*

Pearlescent Purple! :shock:

Oh...now you got me excited...

My Blue Baby...I wanted to play too. Obviously, a weak Photoshop effort. Canon should make them available in all the iPod Mini colors ;) :D

Why not paint it white? You know, to go along with those white Lens. :D

[ron chappel]

A white canon body with a red ring.Now THAT would be fun to use amoungst a group of pro's, ROLFL :lol: :lol: :lol:

"oh you haven't heard of this model?It's basically a 300D with a mkII sensor and electronics..sells for us$1200 ,...i pity the poor b*stards that spent good money on a mkII!"
...The fun you could have :D

When I point my 300D at somebody, he sees a big black 17-40mm L lens, a big black 550EX flash, a big black flash bracket, and a dangling black off-shoe coil cord. He rarely notices that the camera is chrome.

My new motto: If it doesn't have Kodachrome on the inside, it's immaterial that it has a coat of chrome on the outside.

[gvansmith]

This is a man with a lot of spare time on his hands… wow. I wonder if the camera still functions properly.
