He holds a D1x and 800mm with one single hand!!


And all those serious big guns, weight next to a paperclip up there... do you need anymore VR?

hehe - it takes a while to realise there's no strap on that camera around his neck!

A photographer's paradise

I would very much like to rob him.

Got a shuttle handy ?

Need to stealthat first

First I need to infiltrate NASA.

Or wait for him to come down...

sure that's a d1x? looked like a d2x to me in his hand with the d1 floating around. there's a fair bit of film gear there too.

Hmm, I cant tell, but it seems that NASA ordered quite a few D1X modified to 'NASA standards' and all those lenses are special orders for them as well.

I dont think you will be able to find any of those gears on Earth

I've just enlarged that shot. It looks like a D2X that is being held.

I can also see an F thingy with a Nikon speedlight also with a Kodak base. Now, how har will the light from that flash reach? Earth??? I knew that they were good!!!

All that gear and the dude's out of focus!

He he!

Maybe Nikon needs to do what Plantronics have done and say that they're used by NASA.

Shit, there's a double-lens camera with old Nikon glass on it in that shot.

3D camera?

Maybe that's what those weird lights people have been seeing during sunset? They weren't meteor trails...just the astronauts up in the ISS firing away the speedlights

Is that an F5 with Kodak digital back??

I see plenty rolls of films on the ride side rack with labels on them. So NASA still in the analogue age

I see so many Japanese brand products there, Nikon, Sony, Kenwood, Canon (DVs?), etc...


And the laptop(s)... looks like an IBM to you?


I thought NASA made everything for their own needs...

You might be right about the F5 with Kodak back Yi-P..I spent a day with a pro here in Adelaide who was using (almost 2 years ago now) and it looked exactly like that.

Well spotted =]

I think the custom 3D FE-10 is the killer camera here.

What does this camera do??

Makes 3-D photos.

On film!

Have you ever played with a Viewmaster?

My guess is trannies; that's the typical application.

That "F5 with Kodak back" is a Kodak DCS760. 6 megapixels.

nahh definitely D1x. D2x has a white spot on its head
and its head aka pentaprism housing is rounder than D1x.

-julz

It's easy: you can read the "D1x" and "D2x" labels on the bodies.

The D1x is floating in front of his stomach, whereas the D2x is on the big lens in his right hand. Is anyone arguing about this any more?
