lol, amusing
>>239804Superior:http://www.karikuukka.com/peking2008/100m/
Correct me if I'm wrong:Black/actually white = NikonOff-white = Canon L.
>>239807impressive
>>239808nah, pretty sure white is canon and black is nikon.though, of course nikon does have white lenses, and of course on the flipside, canon has black lenses. just not tele's...
>>239808oh, and then of course there are sigmas...
>>239818just checked bhphoto.comnup, no white nikon telephoto's./thread lol?
Lol, dunno
>>239807
>>239824
>>239825huh, dont get that one?
>>239819which no self respecting pro is using, so don't worry about it.
>>239828To the left-hand side: It was thirty minutes before the men's event, while that's clearly a woman, and clearly no event was going on.To the right-hand side: Cheap political barbs.
>>239830AFAIK, Canikon does not make a 300-800/5.6 or a 200-500/2.8.
>>239820300mm f4, 400mm f2.8, and 70-200 f2.8 come in white.B&H shows them as discontinued now, they've been on back-order for a long ass time. Local shop swears up and down the 70-200 is getting redesigned and thats why they've been hard to come by the past few months.
why are so many photographers neededtheyre all getting the same fucking shot
>>239847THE MEDIA SPECTACLE MUST FEED
>>239847it's probably cheaper for newspapers and magazines to send their own photographers than to buy stock images
>>239853you sorta start to wonder though, assuming that 10 photogs get a similar shot, wouldnt the excess supply drive down the prices...?what about just the IOC hires ~10 photogs per event and then they on sell images at a reasonable price?IOC make moneynewspapers and websites get the shots they need at prob a cheaper price than buying all the equip and getting it all inc photog+press passes to beijing?
>>239858geeznewspaper's got a huge assload of expensive gear anyway to do local photography, so the only real expense is sending the photographer to another side of the world
>>239804did you realize there's only one woman among the photogs?
>>239866I've never seen a woman photog tho i only watch motorsports.also SPOT THE SONY...
>>239866Look closer, I can make out at least three women.
>>239882There's a local lass here that's a photojournalist, I believe. I've seen her at the town hall with the camera, presumably for marriages.
>>239885oh wow! now i got two! but can't spot a third, hmm.>>239882women seem to be rare in coverage/press no matter what sport.
>>239882OH LAWD IS DAT SUM A900?
Why does EVERYONE wear those fucking ugly beige vests?
>>239901Its a rule left over from film days.
Thanks for the shot, I caught that photographer's pool on the broadcast and couldn't believe how many lenses there were.Make one wonder what the % of lenses sold are at the olympics. Not everyday someone picks up a 2-5K lens...
>>239807Hah hah I likek the two guys making the horrendous faces and the one guy looking at them doing it.
>>239902really?
I counted 36 black lenses, and 32 white lenses.Also the Sigma 120-300 f2.8 is considered a fantastic lens for sports, I wouldn't be surprised to see one of those in there.
>>239907A lot are probably rented.
>>239912I'm kidding, but back when everyone used film those types of jackets were very popular because they could carry lots of films and filters etc, now everyone just carrys on wearing them.
these 2 dudes look so out of place with their toy cameras
>>239823some of those black lenses are sigmas, you can tell from the obvious shape of the canon bodies and from the pixels>>239842white nikons are imported from japan
>>239914>>I counted...ffs
>>239804look at the top left corner, lol @ those rejects in the crowd standsand further right, there's a faggot with a battery grip
>>239920Oh. After checking>>239807it seems to be a uniform thing for photographers there (ID number and whatnot)
>>239825track meets are structured so that men and women's events alternate.ya doofus.
>>239804obvious troll
>>239991wat
