Look who's joined the coffee mug band wagon...

Looks a heck of a lot more detailed than the Canon 70-200 f4 mug that I got sitting on my desk.

Oh wonder how long this will last before Nikon sends out a cease and desist as it doesn't look like a product endorsed/made by Nikon themselves.

Or try to mount the cup onto your body.
perhaps fill the cup with water and freeze it to ice and try to take pics? F0.8?

great - now I'll get yelled at by the wife for putting my REAL lenses on the coffee table without a coaster.

Isn't the 70-200 VRII weather-sealed? =p

On a regular note, is it just me, or does the 24-70 look like it's just a cup (ie. no metal lining for hot liquids).

I'd have to agree.... doesn't exactly look like the kind of container I'd carry around for scolding hot liquids.

lol

I remember showing my wife an ebay posting by Henrys which was around $200 usd for the Canon 70-200mm mug (thieves!) and one time I brought out a real 70-200 (she doesn't really know what lenses I have) and she's like "What you bought that mug?!". Instinctually, I replied "no no don't worry, uh.. it's um the real thing". She gave me this mad look and asked how much did that cost? I think I darted quickly behind the sofa.
