Re: Olympics sets limits on amature lens size.
Hell, Frank, rant away. I suspect there is a lot of truth in what you say. If the seats are packed in tight, I could also imagine that trying to shoot with a really long lens could be annoying to those around him/her.

Re: Olympics sets limits on amature lens size.
You forgot the other prohibition - large cameras. You can take your 300/2.8 in, but not the camera body it's mounted on. From: John Francis Only lenses over 30cm prohibited? That's quite permissive by today's standards. for the US Figure Skating championships the limit was below that; I think the 50-135 might just have been allowed, but the 60-250 definitely wasn't. But with a 30cm guideline the A* 300/2.8 (even with the 1.7x AF adapter) falls within the length limits. As does an A 400/5.6 (but not an A*/2.8). I wouldn't want to be shooting anything much larger than that hand-held. The rules are at least partially there to prevent you being a dick and blocking the view of the person in the seat next to you by sticking a honking great camera right in their field of view. If I were going to the Olympics I'd be giving serious consideration to an OM-D with the 75-300 - that's a whole lot easier to carry around. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: Olympics sets limits on amature lens size.
It wasn't about the athletes even then. What annoys me about the Olympics is not the commercialism but the whiff of idealism it still tries to cloak itself in. In my opinion, anything that calls itself a movement has more in common with what the medical establishment calls a movement than anything else.

RE: Olympics sets limits on amature lens size.
These sorts of things really piss me off. The IOC and the local organizers are so f-ing worried that someone is going to sell a photo and they'll lose licensing fees or royalties or whatever that no one gets to take keepsakes. I was at the Olympics in Montreal in 76. Took my Praktica and either a 200 or 300mm to my one day at the stadium. Happened to be the day that Lasse Viren won his second race making him the only Olympian to win the 5,000m and 10,000m in successive Olympics. Got a shot of him crossing the line then another of him collapsing on the track. It was also day two of the decathlon. Got several shots of Bruce Jenner including one of him taking a victory lap waving an American flag. From where I was my shots had no commercial value; indeed they would have no value to anyone but me. All they did is show I was there. That's what any photo from the seats will be. No one except those with credentials will be anywhere near any vantage point from which they can take commercially viable images. What the hell are they afraid of? They won't lose a dime if they let amateurs shoot with big lenses from their seats. They're just bring control freaks.

Re: Amature
Sonny, lovely stuff! You've made some wonderful images there. About the lens, I know everyone raves about the 50/1.4 primes (with reason), but I got the FA 50mm/1.7 for two reasons: it weighs two ounces less than the 1.4 (minimizing weight is important to me), and I only paid about $90 for a near mint lens on ebay, about 9 months ago.
