I've said for years that the internet has given a home to every no-life nerd in the world and this just reinforces my statement...

I wish someone made a video of destroying a 1D Mk IV.

That will really really hurt!

Senseless destruction - nothing to be proud of in my opinion.

Because it didn't blend.

Drink meet keyboard.

I watched about 2 minutes, it's unimaginative and dull. You have a blow torch and a camera, yay. At least use some kind of novelty home made explosives or something.

Sorry for the large image, do not have smaller.

LOL.
Perhaps you could find a photographer/media professional to teach you resize images.
Or to teach you how to use a Nikon, or to teach you how to make a better video that refllects at least a milligram of class or talent.

Unless, of course, this thread is for nothing but "look at me, and see how I childish I can act, I need some attention, either positive or negative".
If that's the case, you did well.

Yea, no imagination whatsoever. I'd have ditched the video and just showed a shot of the final outcome along with a question like:

"I was going for lens flare, but maybe I pointed it at the sun for too long?"

or

"They had a smokin deal on slightly used Nikons at the store around the corner from my house"

or maybe

"Bought this in the Buy/Sell forums, do you think the seller lied about not being a smoker?"

And that picture of the destroyed camera.......


Sheesh.
You had a bright sunny day, a stationary object, and that's the best photo you could come up with?
What's your main camera outside of your photo biz? A Motorola Razr?

:) Whats Humans Makes, Humans Can destroy

Did anyone not think that, the camera let him down? I noticed the wedding photographer part at the top?

Maybe, he was shooting a wedding, and the camera crapped out on him, phoned Nikkon and they told him there was nothing he could do about it, and he could of lost alot of money?

'Im Sorry Sir, We only replace cameras with Fire damage sir'

:D


Oh...Hello :)

What a waste of a camera!

As said before, it could have gone to a charity or something similar - even if it was Nikon!
