sonicstep Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I just discovered a news item concerning an Australian press photographer who had his D2H brutally <a href="http://www.dailytelegraph.news.com.au/story/0,20281,17882642- 5001022,00.html">re-engineered</a> by former Australian labour opposition leader<a href="http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Mark_Latham_in_fight_12_months_afte r_resigning_as_Australian_opposition_leader"> Mark Latham.</a><p> The new D2H could be worthy for inclusion in a contemporary art gallery such as the <a href="http://www.tate.org.uk/">Tate Modern.</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cappoldt Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Didn't we see this here before? The gang was dissecting what made it a $12,000 camera...I'm thinking it was the "armour plating." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg s Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 "The Nikon camera is armour-plated and designed for use in war zones" I love this... what a hoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis_vener_photography Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 No one at Nikon has ever claimed the D2H was armor plated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich_chen Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 "The Nikon camera is armour-plated and designed for use in war zones" Ok, so the Nikon camera is like a King Tiger tank in the Eastern Front in 1944-45 - invinsible and powerful! Give me a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivek iyer Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Old news (not really news worthy). Chris has a good memory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick_viebey___orlando__ Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Since they're 'nearly bullet-proof', I wonder if they're soon to be standard issue to troops in Iraq? DOH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akira Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Well, the EN-EL4 battery appears to have survived the rage. Isn't it the proof of D2H's "armour plate"? ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark newcombe www.mcnphoto Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 I love our politicians down here, Not that I would have ever voted for Latham but he kept it interesting for a while. He was from the tough side of town and tried to push that angle I think it lasted a year or two but the party went back to old faithful and installed an old guy at the helm that I think may have lost 3 elections now, but he's getting better lol.
