Yes
Is it just me or does anyone else really like the new canon 7d advert with the horses, it has me in awe every time.

I think its the best ad on tv (prob even better than the shows on tv these days lol)

Also the HSBC integrity advert, my friends laugh when one of these ads comes on tv and i sit there glued to it.

Everytime i see them i want to grab my camera and run off outside with it lol
am i sad or just mad? lol :cuckoo:

I loathe advertising as a rule, but the HSBC ones are generally good and I loved the one with the fishermen and the cormorants. Tasteful, artistic and quite effective.

Does anyone remember the BMW ad shot in monochrome, of the white mouse on the top of the steering wheel, demonstrating the sensitivity of the power steering? I don't know if it was shown in the UK, but it had the same simple quality and impact. One of the few times when I might, just, consider an advertising guru a genius!
 
I've just looked at the Canon one. It has many of the same qualities; class, beautiful imagery, restraint and an assumption that the viewer is sufficiently intelligent to get the message without spelling it out over and again. A far cry from most of the puerile, in your face, garbage inflicted on us. I find some advertising so repugnant that I make a concious effort to avoid buying anything the company offers.
 
the canon ad is a stunnig piece of work, the guys n gals who made it did a great job on that one, i feel it really sums up our love of photography.

most of the tv progs let alone ads are rubbish these days its nice to see someting so well thought out even if it is only a minute long lol
 
I like how his 100-400 drops at the end because he hasn't tightened the ring.. come on chaps, attention to detail :D
