I have just had my 5d Mk2 body returned to me as it’s an insurance write off:shrug:, and I’m just thinking what I can do with it?

It has been fresh water damaged although I have the list of repair damage from Colchester camera’s and I did think about selling it for a few pound to a budding camera repair enthusiast, but thinking more about what I could do with it as in a bit of creative stuff, so has anyone got any ideas?

Doorstop?
 
Slow motion sledge hammer, post it on you tube watch people cry......
 
Paint out Canon, write on Olympus and see if you can get it on 43rumors.com as a forthcoming full frame release?
 
Entrapment - it would really annoy a thief.

I'm liking the planter idea though - good with herbs on the kitchen window sill
 
hahahahahahah totaly agree play a joke LOL that'd be epic that would and get it on video be youtube gold :D

then strip it and wall mount it the place I used to go that serviced my canon gear had wall mounted camera in bits looked brilliant and very interesting
 
Cheers for all the idea's thinking I will lake it apart and have a look at the bits maybe mount them. then put the body back together then maybe do some shots with different things out of the lens spigot ie plant a flower/Fill with water and put small boat in there. Must be lots of things maybe do a 52
 
How about making a "lens" out of random stuff - like baked bean cans, pringles tubes, a coffee cup ;)

Then go out with it (and a working camera), see and shoot the reactions you get...
