why is everybody laughing and cheering? I would be in shock; those things cost more than RED cameras.

why was the camera sitting down there? didn't look like it was in a good position for any shots, or was he just reting it there?

it was at the 2004 or 2005 shakedown i think

i'me guessing it was a regular hasselblad, but with a digital backing which would put the body at about 12k...then throw on a lens...and you're lookin at a pretty expensive piece of kit

i kinda doubt it was a hasselblad... the tripod is far too shitty to put even a large slr on. you dont put over 5k on a 39$ tripod. besides! the dude who carried to broken mess off was the one with the hasselblad 500 and the wide angle lense!
