What kind of camera would each candidate use? Here's my thoughts. (Again, just for fun. Let's keep the nasties off the list.)
George W Bush -- one with the lens cap always on.
John Kerry -- one with two lenses pointing in opposite directions.
John Edwards -- Doesn't matter to him. He'll just name it "Sue".
Dick Cheney -- One with a reliable self-timer.
Hmmmm....
Well, I'd guess that whatever body Gee Dubya uses, he's got something like a 1200mm tele mounted on it - you know, to concentrate on the stuff going on a long ways away, whilst everything happening around him is being missed.
Kerry, OTOH, might have had a use for a Nikonos back in Vietnam, so if
he dropped it in the water pulling that guy out of the river, it would
still work. Right now, I think he'd be a Canon man - you know
flavour-of-the-month. But, he'd probably tape over the logo anyways. That way, he'd have it both ways - impress the Canophiles, whilst not
bothering the rest.
Cheney? I think he might want an old mechanical workhorse, like an MX - the electronics of anything newer might interfere with his pacemaker.
Edwards, sadly, I don't know enough about - hardly hear his name mentioned up here in the Great White North. Give him something disposable?
That's the best I can do for now. Anyway, the election's over. 'Skins lost yesterday, so Kerry's gonna win. <vbg>
Take your pick.
cheers, frank
