Don't think its a tittle.....just a web name for our great Nikon Samurai.

Actually you need to be accepted into a shogun in a mountainous Japanese region in which you'll undergo many years of training and meditation and as your final test you must pick up a red hot Nikon logo with your forearms, leaving permanent marks upon your arms.

Yep, Speed is the keeper of the list. I think I'm #29

[AgingEyes]

So is it more like a list of members who use Nikon? Or one has to go up the mountain first?

Why don't they have a Canon Samurai clan?!!?!??! It would be kind of funny to have clan wars!

Because the Samurai only uses the finest and highest quality weapons.

[Desertdog]

LOL Frog!! Haahahaha thats awesome!

Well, I'll have to contact Speed... :] Thanks for the info

There is an "official" Clan O'Canon on the site. Note my avatar. There is also a Pentax clan, and I believe there is a Konica Minolta and possibly and Olympus clan as well. Not sure on the last two tho.

[retroactiv]

Yes, but the Nikon Samurai is by far the best of the Warrior Class

Clan O'Canon users are mostly drunken Irishmen that don't care what their images look like - they are used to seeing things blurred and OOF. Most of them don't shower for weeks and have a stench you don't want to get near. They are always looking for a brawl and most of the time will end up fighting each other (they know better than to mess with a samurai)

[Desertdog]

Bump in the hopes that Speed sees this >.>
