I thought it would be a good idea to share what camera gear I use. I use a Canon EOS500D with EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM zoom lens.
That's pretty funny actually! Came across something similar at an electronics market last year. Bought a "Sony" 16Gb flash/USB stick for 120rmb. Very clever fake, down to the blister packaging. Of course the giveaway was the price, as well as lack of instructions. Trouble was, got home and found it didn't work! Have been told that 16Gb Sony flash drives didn't exist then anyway (and maybe still don't), so I just put it down to experience - get a demo before handing over the cash!

Hint. Thumbdrives don't have MAC IDs. Network devices do. If you're stupid enough to be able to inspect the product, see that, still buy it... then you deserve to get burned.
