    The ultimate automated photographic studio.

    What a way to get a few photos, some people have way too much time on their hands.

    Nikon, Fuji, Nikkor, Sigma, Tamron, Tokina and too many other bits and pieces to list.

    way to much time on their hands, but clever!

    I'm far from an expert in filming stuff (actually nil experience), but for all the effort in doing that, the camera work was making me frustrated & dizzy.

    Please note the 'elegant' (but ultimately futile) use of the hammer on the lens with the red ring (at the 16s mark in the video) .... Oh and take particular note of the other lenses in the line up!
    Note that the hammer only comes into use to reinforce some sort of allegiance to a specific brand.. otherwise it served no other purpose in the mouse trap.

    Fanboism gone mad!(but I like it )

    Think of how many takes that must have happened, before they got it right.

    Thta Honda ad that was around a few years ago took many months of work to get it to go correctly.
    All my photos are taken with recycled pixels.
    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom, is knowing not to serve it in a fruit salad.

    Actually he explains it well here: http://youtu.be/qfrmTN0Ly94

    But futile, I think not. Look how many people now know of his business, and his attention to detail will be a big draw card.

    Great video, although a bit hard to see what was happening sometimes. For his next video I'd like to see a machine that can fold those reflectors .

    My first thought was "Well this guy ain't married..."

    There's a background vid if anyone is interested...

    All I could think was "oh my god, all the gear that got wrecked!" and wince a lot.

    Very cool though. I wish I had so much time to devise such shenanigans.
