x-no-archive: yes
If you think we pros STILL use those cameras you have your head so far up your ass you'd have trouble recognizing anything other than your own prostate. The dickhead reference shows, charm, grace and intelligence on your part. Lots of Kodaks nowadays on the sidelines at NFL games. Thanks for the laughs. You crack me up. "Bill" wrote in message gy.com... Now, I've done the heavy lifting for you Dylan, you figure out what resolution these cameras shoot in. I never said the 2500 compared to them, I said that there are still lots of folks using that resolution in their work. http://www.steves-digicams.com/dcs620x.html http://www.steves-digicams.com/2001_...s/dcs720x.html http://www.steves-digicams.com/d1.html "Bill" wrote in message gy.com... Hey dickhead, did you read my words? Did I say they're using 2500's? I've got a clue, you better go buy one. "Dylan" wrote in message .. . x-no-archive: yes Yes many pro journalists are using 2500s. Why the NPAA mailing list is full of 2500 users. Get a clue pal. |

Check the local papers dickhead, there are tons of them still using that
old camera and happy to have it. They don't need mega mega pixels and if it still works they see no reason to fix it. Check the prices they are still commanding at Ebay for their antiquated ability to stil take a photograph perfectly suited for printing low res on a newspaper press. Tell those guys at the high school football games taking photos for their local daily papers that they're not pros because they don't have the latest gee whiz camera and they'll stick one of their lens up your knowitall ass.

Bill, as a reasonably experience sports photographer, I find two problems with your statement: 1. A 110mm zoom isn't sufficient for shooting football, even with sideline credentials. 2. f/3.9 at 110mm with a max ISO of 400 doesn't work either, at least for nighttime which is when most football games take place. Even with a strong (guide number of 180) flash, you're about three stops too slow. Most PJ are shooting 200mm f/2.8 zooms on Fuji Press 800 pushed two stops, or using a digital slr body. I've never seen one at a game here in D/FW using ANYTHING but an interchangeable lens SLR. Even the team dad's are using more than a 3x point & shoot. Tom P. |

Tom, I agree that NONE of them are using 2500's, didn't use them in the
first place. I've been arguing resolution, not the specific camera. That was why I pointed out that the resolution of the original Nikons and Kodaks were about the same as the 2500.
