Default Hasselblad + Disney - No Lens = EPIC FAIL

Uncle Bob shared this link in facebook and thought I'd share.

I could only hope the commenter is a troll, cause if it's not, then god help him and his porsche and his plastic surgeon cause damn it, he needs brain surgery first and foremost.

FAIL Nation: The 1% Takes Up Photography FAIL - EPIC FAIL Funny Videos and Epic Fail Funny Pictures


But then again, who doesn't take their Hasselblad on their trips to Disneyland?!?

I bet if that camera body came with a lens it would take WONDERFUL pictures and video. Why buy an $18K camera to take vacation photos? He does have too much money and not enough brains.

I do think he's really trolling, but then the bored part of me is thinking neah, there are just 'stupid-er' people than me out there so I'm good.

I can imagine, though, that this happens and people buy a dslr not having a clue what "body only" means.

This comes up under a google search for "Body Only".. I think if this was what I thought I was buying, I'd be disappointed too!

If this is true, I want to hit him up for some camera gear. Heck, at least I know my way around cameras. LOL I'll be more than happy to shadow him where ever he goes around So Cal, & would gladly take photos for him.
