I just saw The Avengers (yes, it's freak'n awesome BTW). I noticed a scene that had what seemed like a long lingering shot with a multimeter in it which then drifted off camera. Seemed to be some cheapie OneHungLow manual range job, and I thought it seemed rather misplaced among all the other high tech gadgetry. Almost certainly the one in the cinema that was wondering what brand and model it was ;D Any else spot it? Dave. |

Dave,when you said "Avengers Multimeter" I imagined John Steed using an AVO model 8. ;D But you don't mean the silly Pommy TV series ,do you? You mean the silly Marvel comic movie! ;D |

Maybe the producers went round all the big names like Fluke and Agilent and asked how much they were willing to pay for a product placement opportunity? And perhaps when they got no bites from the big names they went with a cheap anonymous brand to avoid giving anyone free publicity. |
