Camera tossing
While cleaning out the garage last week I found a old P&S camera that was I'm guessing 8 years old. I figured let's try this camera tossing thing, if I drop this old camera oh well.I tossed the camera up with a delay shutter set. Results: nothing exciting. I tossed the camera up again with the same results. Honestly I don't see the risk being worth the results. I ended up tossing the camera up 5 times and after looking at the results decided this wasn't worth the risk of damaging a 8 year old P&S. So what gets me is how people can justify newer DSLR's being tossed up in the air? Are these people sponsored by Canon and Nikon?

Tossing a camera up in the air is all about luck. Holding a camera and taking a photo is all about skill.
