Looks really fake to me, especially with the lens looking like graphic art.

VR III also throws me off of it. VR II is barely in place.

I think that needs to remain lost, rather than found.

Thanx for the laugh, Bernie.

Looks fake, and doesn't seem at all likely, someone is very bored.

Looks to me like it started life as a torch, maybe if you fitted it with a 'Betta Beama" it could light up some dark places.

Seeing as how it comes from an Israeli site I can only see this as an ”item of interest’ for Mossad :wink:

Definatley fake. The features list is written nothing like any of the others Nikon has released.

Harry
Nikon D80, MB-D80, Nikon 50mm f/1.8, Nikon 17-55mm f/2.8, SB-800, Sigma 18-200 f/3.5-6.3
Various bits of borrowed/stolen glass/speedlights etc. - zero style or taste.

it was probably a school project,

we had to make one for 3d animation.... back in the day :P

basically you create a product, build it in 3d and market it.

you can tell it's a 3d render as the grips are just a map,

i remember i built a set of speakers for my project

It's a bad render if it is. Looks more like something done in Illustrator.

Not saying I can do any better .. But its pretty slack.


:roll:

Although a 100-400 Vr AF-s F4 would be pretty good.
