My new camera related tattoo...

Plan9 · 11th of August 2006 (Fri)

I have wanted something Camera related for a while and I have wanted a wristband tattoo for a while as well. This was a way for me to kill two birds with one stone, while keeping the camera reference subtle.

Yowza. Looks like someone's had you tied up too long! White...with a red ring. Nice! You can call your right arm your "Cannon"

Dude i thought about the same tattoo for awhile, and my mother made the L lens reference. Sweet idea man.

Oh thats cool!

Almost looks like you've cut your hand off, and had it resewn..

How fast is it? I'm guessing faster than a 50 1.0

that is something I never would have thought up... wow! did it hurt? and does it go all the way around your wrist?

Cool idea. Very creative. Probably one of a kind as well, but if I had to guess not for long.

They all hurt to some extent.

it feels like...getting scratched by a cat. Some places hurt worse than others, like the ribcage and the kneecaps, and for me my stomach was super painful. But the wrist wasnt bad at all.

And yeah, it goes all the way around

Man ... that sucks badly.

Hmmm... very creative, but I think I might have gone with something more practical... like a DOF chart on my forearm. Wouldn't that be handy

Well that's not something you see every day... I bet you'll get a fair few questions as to why you got a red ring around your wrist

Cool

Do you shoot better photos now that your arm is an L-series?

CoolToolGuy · 12th of August 2006 (Sat)

Its a bit of an inside joke, as only photogs will get it.

It definitely qualifies as the Post Of The Day.

But if you want to take it to the next level, you might have the AF switches and IS switches added about 3/4 of the way between the wrist and the elbow. . .

Have Fun
