Zoom lens mug helps you get close to delicious coffee

coffee-mug-cum-lens.jpgWant the world to know that you have a deep and sustained love for both professional photography as well as coffee? Do you want to do so in a way that doesn't just involve taking pretty pictures of coffee?

Just take a look at this incredibly-nerdy-yet-somehow-still-awesome mug, fashioned out of a zoom lens. It looks bulky and completely impractical, but it has so much charm I just don't know who wouldn't want one. It would sell like hotcakes to photographers, at least. It appears to be a concept at the moment, but this is one concept I hope comes off the drawing board.

I wonder about 2 things:
A) Will it be a larger mug once you zoom in?
B) Does it have a built-in stabilizer?

That's one silly product design, but fun.

It might be uncomfortable to hold, but if it got made into a real product all my photographer friends would love it.

Love it and would love to purchase.. provided it is Canon fit.

I think the handle should be a tripod mount instead!
If they make a Nikon one, i'd buy for sure!

A wide angle would be the perfect size for a G@tto's foamy coffee.
