Photo of the Day - July 2024

Lumen Field (pro soccer, football) here in Seattle limits you to 200mm. At T-Mobile Park (pro baseball), it's "Cameras smaller than 6 inches with the lens fully extended are allowed".

Crikey that's pretty restrictive! I did pack a couple of teleconverters with me incase I needed them, maybe the 200mm limit might not be so bad if you can sneak in a 1.4x/2x tele...

The 6" and/or 200mm limits are pretty common for pro stadiums across the US. There are other limits that come into play - many types of carry bags and packs (back & fanny) are commonly outright prohibited.

That's brutal... I've been thinking about a trip to the US for a while so that's good info - thanks

Another tennis snap to celebrate the R2 victory today at Wimbledon! Maybe I'll keep the streak going until she loses

I check online with any venue that I'd like to take a camera into for limitations - I've been surprised, both pleasantly and unpleasantly.

Nice shots. They don't restrict use of the long lenses?

This is a good moment to promote M43, where 300mm can get you a lot of reach at 2x crop. The 300mm F4 would be ideal. Can you sneak in a TC2X?

👍
I was tempted to do a similar shot… but thought some may think me being too political. 🙂
Fingers crossed…

Remembering a very cold January day on a hot Fourth of July - Ice Road Trucker on Atigun Pass, far North of the Arctic Circle.
