Stop Camera Abuses!!

I am very disappointed with DigitalRev this time for their latest "test" which actually is a cameras abuse video but nothing else!

Kai has been rather silly and stupid throughout the whole course. IMO the only close-to-real-life "test" is the drop test at the football court, whilst all others are totally meaningless! >:-(

Last time, I was annoyed for someone abused the W90, this time the D70 and the 400D were cruelly abused before they were finally destroyed!

I have to say again if some gear are of no value (no matter in practical or money terms), just give it to others who find them useful and don't waste the resources of the Earth!

Every piece of photographic gear is actually the painstaking efforts of those camera engineers and many people and I do feel hurt once again for those stupid and actually metamorphosic people who imposed the abuses and then even share these online! >>:-(

Absolutely with you, hate what some people do in name of whatever to ruin gear instead of passing it on to anyone what can use it. It just makes them a ULTRA MORONS (almost waist of oxygen) if they don't appreciate the human ingenuity, intelligence and effort of engineering...

Honestly, what was the point of the video? He spoke with a pseudo-British accent but didn't have the British humour. He comes off as a spoiled kid. I wanna see him personally crash test his cars.

Absolutely worthless test (except the football court). Take out those cameras together with K-7 to mountains, try to shoot with them in rain, in snowfall, in subzero temperatures, let them fall on rock or in slop, take them to the beach and let them fall in wet sand. Shoot with them in desert storm. Leave the cameras for few hours on direct sunlight or in the car behind window in sunny days....so many real use scenarios.
But in mountains or desert, these "witty" metrosexuals will probably "stop working" before the cameras...

Good test suggestions. But unfortunately those abusers didn't carry out such more meaningful tests but just knew to abuse!

I can (with difficulty) see why you'd test a W90 the way they did. That was designed and marketed as a "tough" camera. Which raises the question of "how tough is tough". So I'd let them off the hook for that one.

But I'm totally with you on this one. These camera's were never designed to be abused in any way. Why would you do this? These were good camera's, why destroy them? And the test them-selfs are really dumb. If you accidentally set your camera on fire, you don't deserve it in the first place...

Yes, but still trying to break the LCD with tsim tongs is actually rather silly, either.
