I just looked at the price... 10,000.00 USD O.O *faints*

its brilliant but i have to say it kind of takes the personality out of photography part of the photograph is the story behind it

[photowalkthrough]

@LowCountryWild True but sometimes you just can't be there either for time reasons or because being there would prevent the scene from happening. This would be great for remote controlled shooting of wild animals, for example.

@photowalkthrough i can see it being more useful for sports than anything, I personally am a wildlife photographer and I think the best part of the photograph is being out there with the nature but thats just me

[photowalkthrough]

@LowCountryWild Oh not just you at all. I'm totally with you on that. I think it's a big part of why most wildlife photographers get into it.  I can't honestly say who's buying rigs like this one but there seems to be a market. I won't be buying one any time soon though!

I feel like Worzel Gummidge now. I guess I didn't have my thinkin' head on.

Whats wrong with your own head you pommie git. If you had a better head you wouldn't need a remote control electronic head!
