So you’ve been drooling and dreaming of getting your hands on your very own Canon 1DsMkiii, but the multi thousand price tag is just too much...
Well now Canon have very kindly offered you an alternative solution to fulfilling those dreams - Make your own!
Canon have kindly provided step by step instructions along with construction tips and tricks as well as the tools you will require in order to build your own top end professional camera.
Did I forget to mention that it’s made out of Balsa wood?
I’m guessing that this is just the process that they use for the creation of the ‘touchy-feely’ prototypes in the early design stages. And are now sharing it with us... I’m certainly going to have a go - and if it’s not too crap - I’ll share the results here. As whilst it may be completely pointless for our studio from a practical point. I think it will look great as an aesthetic addition to our studio offices.
In fact, if it goes well, I may well even have a go at doing our Hasselblads too.
Click the pics to take you to the step by step process published on Canons web site - Personally, I think it’s a great little thing to have a go at doing. If you do have a go, any chance you can post your attempts here so we can all see that we are not alone in our not-so-hot modeling prowess.
