Greatest Swag In The History of Swagginess: The Canon Lens Thermos - Canon lens thermos - Gizmodo



Quote:
Those press covering the Olympics sure do have a plum life. They bundle off to Vancouver for 16 days of watching ice-skaters embarrassing themselves, and ruthless Russian bobsledders showing their dark sides. Oh, and they get lens-shaped thermoses.

The story goes that a Microsoft employee by the name of Josh Weisberg wandered into the Canon press tent at the Olympic Press Center, and got given a 70-200mm Canon L-series lens. Or so he thought, probably tucking it safely in his backpack before Canon realized they had gifted him a lens instead of a branded pen or hat.

I think the 580EX II flask would be a good idea too.

This thermos could be placed near real gear as a diversion for thieves.
