In Pictures: The World's Most Extravagant Technology Products

Many technology buying decisions come down to dollars. But what if price weren't a factor? Some of these 16 absurdly expensive products are practical, some are pretentious, and some are preposterous. They're all out of our price range--but hey, window shopping is free, right?

Hollywood in Your Hand 2 of 16

If your home movies are elaborate--like, Steven Spielberg elaborate--a regular camcorder just isn't going to cut it. The camera that all the cool moviemaking kids are using is the Red One. You can hold it in one hand (it's almost a foot long and weighs 9 pounds minus the lens and battery) and shoot 12-megapixel video at 60 frames per second or 720p video at 120 fps. It's designed to produce images with the same sharpness and depth of field as 35mm film, and directors such as Peter Jackson and Steven Soderbergh have gushed about it. A steal at $17,500.
