Nikon D3 Cut in Half

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.

Hahahaha, artbot! I wonder how they did this. Maybe a water jet ...

Wow. That's beautiful...yet heart wrenching at the same time. ;)

Here's a Practica:

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.
