These 1/5 scale camera and lens models are superb - £300 though :(
This is a 1Ds with a 600mm F4

We've been following them on IRC. One was going for £10 till the last day and jumped to like £70. So want one.

No offence like, but I can't think of a worse way to spend £300!

£300 worth of sand?

Its not a bad way to spend 300 quid by the way you are talking about it. Do you think a collector has that attitude or a camera enthusiast.

I would love one but wont spend the money on one as I dont have it or need other things.

You could spend 300 quid on a computer component and it would loose its value instantly.. something like that would only ever increase in value.
 
Ever since I saw one in a high street camera store I have wanted one (I was with cykey at the time too :p). Cyk asked the guy if he could have it and they said no :(

Then we got home and saw how much they were going for :eek Shocking really but some people really think it is the camera!

some of the questions are written in such ignorance it's funny, it's a pity it doesn't work though! :p
lol, just saw the questions...can't believe people would fall for this thinking it's a real thing yet it was clearly advertised as scale model.

Funny that this auction is listed under photography instead of model or collectors items.

buy a real 1ds mark II & 600mm F4 L
Cut out a black base. and photograph it on your desk (big desk) using the T&S effect. Then tell everyone you have one!

Dont bother boring people telling them you have a real one! zzz :o

Ah yes, the cheaper option ;)
 
Seller seems to be an attention seeking ego maniac :)

Gone out of his way to make it misleading to thickos far more than he has to clarify it's only a model.
