This is the perfect gift for your photographer friend who also likes coffee — so long as that friend isn’t a Nikonista, I suppose.
I read somewhere that these coffee travel mugs — shaped like Canon telephoto lenses — were handed out as swag to official photogs at the Vancouver Winter Olympics. But they proved so popular (and went viral) that they’re being released to order for the general public. I want.
You can pre-order one from Vistek.ca for $30 Canadian. (I’ve ordered from Vistek before, btw, with no issues.) Their estimated released date is the middle of April.
Or, if you want one faster and free-er (but also more expensive) you can order $200 of stuff at the Canon Canada e-store, and they’ll throw one in for free. But hurry — that offer ends March 23.
Hopefully they are electronically stabilized to prevent motion blur and spills.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Coming soon: the story of the first sap who leaves this in his coffee cup holder in his car, and promptly gets broken into.
This seems like a good use for a Canon lens.;)
Vistek is an outstanding photo dealer. I placed an order Monday, and it arrived here today.
I actually really want one of these.
I also need more Canon Lenses hmmmmm
Given how often Canon gear needs to go in for repairs, it might just be actual lenses they use.
Even better, authenticity increases the collector’s value!
Indeed, although it’s only an f/4 lens, which makes it harder to drink dark roast. *rimshot*
