Nikon D3 Cut in Half

By Queuebot in Gadgets, Hacks & Mods on Jan 27, 2009 at 8:50 pm

Tokyobling blog has some amazing photos of a Nikon D3, which has been cut in half ...

I visited the Tokyo Eco Products convention the other day (2008/12/12) to be exact and naturally I headed straight for the Nikon booth where my gaze immediately fell upon this beauty: a Nikon D3 cut in half for all of our camera porn pleasures! For a technophile camera lover as myself, I was for once happy to be a foreigner in Japan: the staff politely ignored my feeble attempts to take a decent photo through the counter glass. I felt slightly incestous: a Nikon D60 photographing a crippled D3. Behold all the beauty that is Nikon technology! And pray that you never see anything like this again.

    I sliced up the carburetor – the camera image I got off the web. Wish I had the skill/technology to do the camera ones.

    Camera porn? I cringe at the writing. The lenses are kinda neat, I guess.

    Very interesting. I always got curiosity about what’s inside a camera..

    I have been the proud owner of the D3 for nearly a year now. I keep on asking myself how can Nikon improve on this camera. Then they brought out the D3s and the D3x. Still the D3 will be more than a good work horse for me for a few years yet. Maybe I will be saying the same about the D4 in the next couple of years.

    The D3 in the picture is only half the it once was.

    I still use and love my older D2X. Guess it looks much the same if I was to cut it in half.
