No, we’re not kidding you. Mark Donaldson tweeted an image showing that an ESPN TV camcorder was smashed by a golf ball during the British Open. Apparently, a bad shot made by Thomas Bjorn accidentally hit the front element of the lens (although we pray that there was a filter in place.) According to Golf Week, a statement was jokingly made that the bill will be sent to Denmark.
We’re curious as to what lens it might be, so we checked out some of the more expensive professional zoom camcorder lenses at B&H Photo. Chances are that it was a Canon or Fujinon.
