 Almost no editing.. Last minute idea. I got out an old cell phone and gutted it for the keys, then crazy glued them to my 30D. I was going to pop the keys back off after i got through, but I think I\'ve decided to leave them on there. It was taken with a friend\'s (svt_geek) Canon Rebel XT.

man this has to be one of the highest scores with that many DNMC comments. funny shot and clever idea. maybe one day people will lighten up a bit:)

Great Idea, you now have one heck of a camera phone!!! I think I've seen a prototype of the XT/350D with a built-in cellphone a while ago. Their ideas was for photojournalists who wish to sent their photographs to the headquarter right after the shots are taken.
 03/28/2007 02:51:25 PM
Ha! Thanks for the explanation. I think you should, indeed, leave them on.

Then go hang out with other photographers and grin while they try to figure out what special model 30D you own. :)

Way to be creative! This one is not only creative and imaginative, but technically fabulous. The buttons on the camera are very convincingly real. Good sharp, clean image.

While this certainly a very clever photo, I don't see how it relates to the challenge in depicting a person using a cell phone.

 03/23/2007 11:24:27 AM
IMHO, this doesn't meet the challenge ... missing the person
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/23/2007 10:41:47 AM
If you would have included a hand or even a finger in the photo, I'd have given it a 10.

Wow well done! That has to be a 30D with a battery pack...good idea!the cell phone will be hard on batteries...an 8 from me. The light seems a little flat and DOF is a little shallow for my taste, but being that your 30d is in the shot you may not have had much choice.Great idea

 03/21/2007 06:19:00 PM

  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/21/2007 05:58:27 PM
Yeah the face plate pops off and the buttons come out and then you stick em on your dlsr.... cute.

This week capture an interesting photo of a person using their cellular phone.

Very clever...
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The challenge says:
This week capture an interesting photo of a person using their cellular phone.

Hate to be picky but I don't see a person.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/21/2007 04:09:29 AM
While the shot is nice, the phone is still not in use, which I believe was a parametre of the challenge ...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/21/2007 03:16:39 AM
Very creative and nicely executed!

  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/20/2007 11:11:25 PM
interesting shot but unfortunately IMO DNMC as it called for a person using their cell phone
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/20/2007 10:31:44 PM
Nice idea, but I don't think it is really fitting the intent of the challenge.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/20/2007 09:44:43 PM
DNMC: "This week capture an interesting photo of a person using their cellular phone." Where is the person?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/20/2007 08:18:54 PM
