When I first read about Camera Armor in an article about Photokina, I nearly laughed. Then I thought about the real uses of it, and how for a bunch of people it's probably a savior. I then found Lens Armor, which just might be the greatest thing yet. I'm constantly banging my lens against things and with even cheaper glass it's scary to think about break something. In fact, I started using a rubber hood on some of my lenses for just that reason. What Camera Armor has here is a great thing, and despite its mech like appearance, I think it'll catch on with lots of different types of people.
