I think a nikon cap is enough fanboyness for me.

[anubis]

A member of this forum?....good on im...wonder if he/she sells this.....

How about a Nikon Designed Back-pack specially made for a 70-200, Camera Body and another lens.... while leaving room to carry other things.... and THICK well padded straps.

Something we dont see a lot of is Nikon gear, i remember years ago you could get stickers and all that stuff and would be good to get stuff like this, i am sure some of us would wear it.

Yes, it's Nikon shooter vest and no one like it, I had one long time ago and gave to one of my friend, it was NOS.
Nikon now don't make them anymore.

Interesting, when you look at the phone number you realise they were designed when Maxwells were at Pyrmont, and before Sydney numbers had a 9 added

Well, as far as I remember, Nikon make glasses and sunglasses.

So, you can be a real fanboy with your camera, vest, shirt, and glasses all made by Nikon.

Or you could just buy something else.

I have a vest with a Nikon logo made for Nikon by Domke. Don't know if they have been released everywhere. Usually wear another logo-less Domke though becasue I'm not sure I want to advertise for Nikon or to potential thieves ... knowwutimean?

[redline]

they should have one like used in canon cars to warn off thieves
" this person is not carring any photographic equipment"

LOZ, excellent idea! Personally I'd probably use an IS vest, but I'm not religious about it.

On my EOS gear the first thing I do is remove the stock strap (the one with "EOS DIGITAL" [pronounced "STEAL ME"] stamped on it) and replace it with Op/Tech straps (for use with one of the logo-less shoulder straps I share amongst my cameras).
My Canon lens caps are replaced by Tamron ones with the silver logo sanded back (but this replacement is more for functional reasons than aesthetic ones).
My vest (a Domke: my wife says it's pronounced "Dorky" ) has a subtle Nature Photographers Network badge on a pocket, but that's about as far as I go.

Of course, when I'm carrying my big gear there's little doubt that it's worth some serious money, so who am I kidding?...

Canon gave me an "EOS" hat (complete with subtle red ring around the brim) but I'm not all that keen on being a billboard. It IS a neutral grey colour though...
