       I’m sorry, I don’t get it either. What’s funny about a girl with 2 guys ?

   According to Google translate:

   “High time for a Coolpix. Cool photos have only one chance.”

   any bisexual and multi-timer girl can have more than 5 boyfriends and / or girlfriends so i don’t see it funny.

   just think of the fun time she will have. or the 3 of them will have with there camera (coolpix) later that night.

   sex and cameras, one great past times. Oh and using sex to sell stuff is also a past time I enjoy.

   The guy on the left is Nikon. The guy in the middle is another camera brand.

   She has the other brand but she really wants Nikon.

   I do not see much humor here either!

   I am 58 years old and fortunately I will not live longer than I already have. So I will not have to see society degrade much more hopefully.

   Most all problems that we have today could be solved with everyone having personal responsibility and do the right thing. This includes, but shall not be limited to finance, jobs, family, marriage, etc.

    This is a controversial ad and that’s why I posted it.

      yes, who said it’s funny – but again we have reader from around the world here, so what is not funny to you may be funny to someone else… the bottom line is that Nikon decided to go ahead with that ad.

    I take it that with the possible exception of Dalila, nobody here realizes how hilarious this comment thread is to casual observers. Too bad, you guys are missing out on some real belly laughs. Good stuff!

      why are you complaining about the bag in this thread?
      what does complaining about the thinktank bag review have to do with a nikon ad?
      are you trying to look silly here on purpose?

      (send an email to the admin if you dont like something – dont post the problem in other threads)

    How many of those considering the ad “a failure” actually speak German? No, it’s not the most humorous ad I’ve ever seen, but the message is rather straightforward, and I don’t see any hint of our society degrading in there…

    In the United States we’d have a bikini babe laying on the beach with her Coolpix, but in Europe being sexy takes more attitude.
