5DMkII Wipeout / B&H Gesture of goodwill

[William W]

I understand B&H is a commission advertiser on ausphotography and earns commission on any purchases members make after clicking through the links or banner ads.
I have no affiliation with B&H.
I read this and I thought it might be of interest to other members (http://pdnpulse.com/2011/12/wave-destroys-canon-5d-mark-ii-at-where-else-cannon-beach.html).

Goodwill my arse. Free publicity, more like - though a lot of people think the whole thing was set up as a viral marketing ploy.

They didn't actually say in that story what the replacement camera was. Hope they gave him one of these...

Reminds me of the Pororoca. Anyway it's a good publicity move for B&H although i really doubt they needed to do so.
