Nikon S60 VCAM: What Do You Photograph?

I want to do ALL those things! And photograph myself doing them! Tonky Designs forever!

yea. Just a feel good visual that makes me happy about photography and video.

THIS IS AMAZING! This video really shows how important it is to capture moments and history on film.
Out of the two short ads, this is my top choice. I'm still kind of amazed that a baboon can play the fiddle, but unless the moment/concept had been documented, who else would have known?

Super cool-- I think this is awesome...my top choice!

The best video i've seen yet, and the only one I can envision actually being on TV. great concept & execution, and it's also an effective marketing tool. bravo

The artist did a great job creating a video that captures old time footage while at the same time evoking state-of-the-art imagery

Diggin' the video. There is something to be said for that midwestern sensibility that comes out in the music and the file footage - seems like a celebration of all things American. Good work, man.

this is great, tonky. it made me think! i love when ads provoke me to give a lot of thought to something i wouldn't have thought about otherwise. kudos!

I love this one, the finger one was pretty sweet too, nice job man!!

Life Changing. In a good way.

I like this one. All of the olde-tyme folks sure make me want to get out there with my new nikon... Really I'm just a sucker for an ape who plays the fiddle.

Probably make me a better person

Seriously, if some scientists held my eyelids open-Clockwork orange style-and I had to watch that zippy old timey stuff for like a month, I'd probably be okay with it.

part of me never wants that old timey footage to stop

Wow! I just couldn't get enough of that advertisement! I kept playing it over and over again. I hope to see more from TonkyDesigns.

I put my Canon in the trash as soon as I saw this ad. I'm a Nikon man now and forever. Brilliant ad.

This is a great spot! Nice use of history to contextualize something high-tech and cutting edge.

that monkey has scary teeth.... this video made me scared, made me laugh, and also made me dance (encore!)

Love it! Turkey in the straw...what a classic.

This is such an interesting way of organizing and viewing early pieces of film. Very catchy. Job well done!

wonderful artistry...helps us remember the importance behind of quality, when capturing memories and images. job well done.

Soundtrack and image weave together well, and there is a strident and persistent enjoyment to be had as the product is placed. Count it!

This is about 3423840234 times more clever, catchy and compelling than those annoying Ashton Kutcher ads. Spot on! Cameras have a much more interesting roll in capturing historical imagery than Hollywood douche-baggery - a lot of consumers (such as myself) appreciate a fresh, smart sales pitch.

hands down the best i've seen thus far. the historic footage is classic, comedic, concise. pairing this element with the Nikon S60 VCAM is smart and creates a really interesting antithetical quality. the professional editing, the catchy music choice, the overall effect is very sophisticated. bravo!

Dang, This gives me Deja Vu for some reason.

A cool little short that works on its own, but actually makes sense as a Nikon spot.

Think about it, old images with newest camera. Part of a tradition.

three thumbs ups.

-s.t.

Number one without a doubt. Great cuts, cool old historic footage and fitting music!

Really like the juxtaposition of the old grainy footage with the "6 mouthwatering colors." Makes you think about the evolution of capturing images (on film or digitally).

I'll stick wiff film cameras

This is the best one, by far. Great juxtaposition between then and now! Plus, it reminds you that there is something to smile about no matter how bad the economy is.

best choice!!! just how happy can this video get- from the violin playing monkey to the dancing man playing the banjo - truly innovative and motivational! this is truly an amazing short clip that emphasizes the historical importance of photography and film! this is certainly my top choice - black and white film brings an incredible amount of joy to my heart, and frankly all of the movie frames were filled with happy moments - and some are just so funny like the horse climbin' the elephant. I love it and i am now on my way to get my own nikon cam. besides, how can one not fall in love with such an incredible black/white film? I love it!!!

Virginia Real, history at a glance! I love it.

renior and godard ripped this off. it's brilliant.

i think that children-in-the-water clip was shot just outside stockholm...

where were these film clips shot?

THIS IS SO FASCINATING. It made me think about the importance of the camera for capturing history! It makes me want to take more current pictures, definitely. The editing and technical work of this ad is masterful -- like a professional.

i bought 6 or 7 nikons after i saw this.

This is my favorite video so far. Mainly because it evokes the unbridled joy that using the camera must feel like.

I love this! Definitely my top choice!
