Sorry, make that old "SLRs."

It seems we have been down this road some time ago.

It seems April 1, 2011 lives in an English con artist.

....or perhaps something from Nikon;

It

seems April 1, 2011 lives in an English con artist.

BTW: Here is the meat of that disclaimer,

"SOME GOOD NEWS:
The feedback to Re-35 has truly been overwhelming. It seems Re-35
really addresses a need and people woeldwide can't seem to wait to get
their hands on our "product".
THE BAD NEWS:
Somethings are too good to be true!
Re-35 does not really exist. We (the design company Rogge & Pott)
created Re-35 as an exercise in identity-design. We invented the
"product" because it was something that we had wished for, for a long
time as had many others.

We launched the website and sent out "press releases" on April first -
thinking that the date would make clear, that Re-35 is just wishful
thinking - a classic April Fool's Day prank!"
