And the barrel...

I believe the barrel is there as an accessory: when fitted over the cannon's barrel, it turns a Nikon-like (i.e., black) cannon into a Canon-like (i.e., white) cannon.

Sony should slap a logo on that thing, they'd overtake Nikon and Canon overnight.

I'm not sure, but the level of boredom is pretty high.

One of Australia’s most articulate and well-educated prime ministers, the wonderful Gough Whitlam once described a parliamentary opponent as “ … of lesser calibre but a bigger bore … ”.

And P T Barnum, on being told that his human cannonball had died, observed sadly that it would be hard to find a replacement of the same calibre.
