A good illustration of insanity.

So the relics business lives on from the Middle Ages. I didn't know that.

For a proper reliquary, at that price it should at the very least contain Ansel's left thumb.

It's sad actually, thing hasn't taken a shot in years, nor will it in the future at this price point.

I think this camera is a better investment than a
Phase One XF IQ3100 with 3 lenses for almost the same price. ;)

And sitting on that vintage Majestic gear head. I used to have one of those and always wondered how that thick aluminum plate got warped. Mine was but not nearly as much as the one pictured here.
