Digital Home Thoughts: The Ugliest Camera in the World

"Back in 2005 I went to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to do some volunteer work. Within the first week my camera was stolen. Being that I was volunteering in some of the communities there, I spoke with some people about it. They said that all digital cameras are worth money, but none of the film cameras are unless it's an SLR."

That's one UGLY camera - but it certainly serves the purpose of making it less worthy of being stolen. I don't know if I could do this to any of my equipment - I'm one of those people who really tries to take care of his gear and I get upset if my laptop gets a scratch on it. Guess I won't be volunteering in the seedy part of Brazil any time soon...
