A look back on popular stories from today in a specific year.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
yes, a boy can dream about Maria Sharapova's spread greatness.
wait, what're we talking about?
So pretty, oh so pretty.
And what does one do with teh diamonds in two years when you have to replace the camera?
All those diamonds give a new meaning to the word "flash" for this camera....
Maria can touch my camera any day.
You can now take pictures that are worth more than a thousand words!
That was a good one.
OMG...haha....someone made a funny.
What...you mean we won't even get to meet Maria sharapova? That sucks...but I'll take the camera anyway. Maria sharapova...man...she's sexy...tennis player's legs are the best kind of legs.
but why does it have poo on it
because it's also the Tom Green edition
Hey, those are man hands.
Maybe she has the hands of a man, I never really looked at her hands, there were always better parts to watch.
Get the cookies on the damn comment system fixed!
somehow i doubt she does her own hand modeling.
sad.

you're welcome.
Yabba Dabba dude!
I can't be the only person who thinks that electronics become extremely hideous when they are clad with diamonds for absolutely no reason. I would much rather have a regular version of the camera if given the choice (ignoring resale value, of course)
Yes, but if they come out with a Megan Fox Fuchitek anything, I would have to buy it.
Hey,
If i'm winning a camera with diamonds on, i'm not using it! I'm going to get those rocks off of it and go sell them!
Yawn. While all other camera producers have been or are announcing new models, Canon is busy celebrating its own greatness... how bout some real innovation again, for a change? Instead of playing the Microsoft of DC, that is.
She did touch the cameras, I took the picture that you're using.

Well Chris Gampat, tell her to wash her hands first next time!
photos taken with this camera will have some massive lens flares
E18.
lol'd @ Ned
Dress up a shitty consumer camera with expensive rocks and "award" five lucky winners that, by chance, turn out to be A-listers and high-profile individuals. Meanwhile, the average Janes and Joes sit in front of their computers, read all about it, and drool over the mental image of a hot tennis player on Canon's payroll (Joes) or the picture of the ice-laced camera (Janes).
So, how far am I from the truth?
I own this camera (sans diamonds, of course) and it takes great shots. Video is very nice, too. :)

I give myself 5 minutes before I accidentally drop the $12,000 camera into a flushing toilet, or the ocean.
$12,000 and it probably still suffers from Canon's dreaded E18 error when the tiny plastic cog that shifts the lens in and out jams and strips.
