What do you think of camera painting?

I’ve never really thought too much about it but I just saw this video


and I am amazed at how beautiful the Konica iiim is in black. I’m sure the paint job would probably cost more than the camera. Might be worth it just as a piece of sculpture. As a confessed gearhead I love cameras both for what they do and as objects. Has anyone had their camera painted? Any idea what it costs?

Not personally, however, I admit some camera's look brilliant with a different paint job.

It probably isn't something everyone will be looking to do, especially with a camera of high value (?), although if you aren't looking to flip it or make $$$ out of it - why not?

I'm seriously considering having one of the small Rollei 35's painted - I just need to figure out which model I'd like to do this to. I have the colour chosen, and while it definitely won't be to everyone's taste, it will be something I enjoy using and that is the #1 thing, IMHO.
