Originally posted by brkl That's bad news -- the guy didn't have a lens cap on when riding his bike with his camera out!
I believe that is his Nikon 50/1.4 & Nikon F. He could fall, camera land in the road, car hit it, then a boy trip over it and it would still be fine.
Plus, when you have insurance and experience, you know when and when not to have a cap on.
Requiem - The Camera of Taizo Ichinose
My LX with Cosina 55/1.2 was on top of my car when I drove off. Drove to work without a care in the world. Wife watched me leave, picked up my camera and put it on my desk at home. I came home, picked up my camera and went shooting. I wouldn't put two and two together until a few months later when my wife said "Don't leave your camera on top of your car and drive off like last time."
WHAT?!
