Canon EOS 5D Mark II flash drive: just 21.1MP shy of awesomeness

You could say that this is the perfect USB flash drive for existing EOS 5D Mark II owners. We'd argue, however, that this is the perfect USB flash drive for those looking to just live vicariously while not shattering the bank. 'Course, $129.99 for a 4GB USB key is pretty absurd, but at least that gets you Live View and a 1080p movie mode. Er, wait...

Hee Hee those crazy scammers...

They could have at least buy a crappy camera in the lens...

Anyone want to 1-up this and build a Flash drive out of a Car?

[RioRyan Posted Mar 27th 2009 9:29AM]

hahaha it looks like a normal sized camera with a MONSTER usb plug on it.

i had nothing to say about this kind of thing...

[OneLove Posted Mar 27th 2009 10:48AM]

...but yet you did. :)

[htd Posted Mar 27th 2009 9:34AM]

some people really dig this kind of stuff and pushed the price very high?

[Stven Posted Mar 27th 2009 9:34AM]

You'd kill someone by knocking their head with this USB.

[ISO25600 Posted Mar 27th 2009 9:37AM]

you are paying for the USB mount????

[(Unverified) Posted Mar 27th 2009 9:55AM]

full frame USB EF mount... ahahhahaha

I want one!

Chromatic aberration GUARANTEED to be minimal!!!

[4honor Posted Mar 27th 2009 10:07AM]

This is actually pretty detailed... Do you think they paid for the license to use the logo/camera shape? Maybe that's why it's $130? I'd buy this at $20...

[Leicaman Posted Mar 27th 2009 10:30AM]

Talk about an absurd piece of tech.

Still, I bet it takes better photos than my iPhone. :-P

Whisky. Tango. Foxtrot.

The irony is that you can buy a real Canon 50/1.8 EOS lens for about $80, which gives professional quality pictures and is one of the biggest bargains around. Or you could piss away your money on this piece of junk.

[Mojo Yugen Posted Mar 27th 2009 1:44PM]

No lens "gives professional quality pictures". No camera "gives professional quality pictures". Talent "gives professional quality pictures.

[Mojo Yugen Posted Mar 27th 2009 1:47PM]

I'm going to second the scam theory. You'll either get nothing or some piece of crap that doesn't look nearly as good as that picture.

Lenses give professional *quality*, talent gives professional *results*.

[SWGooner Posted Mar 27th 2009 10:26PM]

The little plastic wonder that is the 50mm F1.8 is just about the best VFM lens Canon make. The results it gets are much higher than you'd expect for such a low outlay. Best of all, it works on my EOS 5 35mm, too. EF-S be damned!

[turbo2ltr Posted Mar 27th 2009 12:11PM]

I'll be damned if that isn't a photoshop of a real 5D MK2 and 24-105 lens.. It's almost too detailed to be real. And with a seller feedback of 1, I wouldn't be surprised if it's a scam.

[keyser Posted Mar 27th 2009 12:42PM]

That IS a lot of detail for something so small. It's going to be a pain in the arse for me to paint over all that Cano-crap and re-paint it as a Nikon.

[(Unverified) Posted Mar 27th 2009 12:55PM]

Hahahaha, I really can't believe that ;-)

But they worship this camera in a way. And yes, it is an excellent camera.

[FraggleRock Posted Mar 27th 2009 1:29PM]

Ah yeah, but come on... $130 is nothing (even in these economic times) for the rabid Canon fan. Unfortunately I count myself among them.

Well, off to the blood and sperm banks, then eBay! :-)

It can be bought cheaper (95 dollars), btw..
