Black tape maybe anyway

[dbarnes]

If and when I pop for an X-Pro1, I may have to put a piece of black tape on the face of the camera, where Fuji COULD have put a logo, but didn't.

I hate logos. Walking through San Francisco the other day I was questioned about my Leica 5 times. TAPE!

Tape does not stop geeks from noticing your camera Jobin... :)

Now that's the ultimate in understatement bling! :cool:

I'd tape posh silver ring on front, too!

[shadowfox]

Or a green dot.

[ruby.monkey]

Looks like a frontal shot of a one-eyed parrot fish. I'd tape up the whole damned thing. ;)

[dbarnes]

@shadowfox/Will: I like the green dot!

[celluloidprop]

I think it would be funny to put a Leica dot on it, but I'm pretty sure more people would see it as serious Leica aspiration rather than irony.

Forget the logo, I care about the colour of that grip. All the promotional shots seem to give it a very different tone to the rest of the body, which I dislike. But what if this is accidental? If it matches well then it will draw eyes for its design, regardless of logos!

[filmtwit]

Is it just me, but isn't that the grip found on the Xpan?

[jsrockit]

Forget the logo, I care about the colour of that grip.

Me too... I'm hoping they have a hot pink one, or at least a school bus yellow one. :D

Would look cool with a Holga logo. :)

[ray*j*gun]

Does Holga have a logo?

[digitalintrigue]

It would never say Fuji because the company is Fujifilm :)

Would one use existential tape on an, as yet, non-existent camera?

I taped over the logo on mine to keep the hipsters away...

So far nobody has come up to me and said "Dude, a holga!" so it must have worked.
Obviously this picture was taken before I threw out the lens cap...

Hey, maybe I should glue the Holga logo to my digital slr... you know, to sort of mesmerize the hipsterchicks when I go downtown. :D

That tape would be hopelessly transparent in it's affectation of purposelessness. :p

[Jack Conrad]

When I popped the logo off my Holga to take the photo of it, guess what I found underneath?

Yep, I found a big Hol. :)

Wouldn't that make you an anti-poseur, poseur?;)

You'll get the "is that a rangefinder?"
