I thought that this was an interesting video where the Sports Illustrated Photogs explain how they shoot the Superbowl and other aspects of Digital Photograpy

Kinda of depressing & kinda of encouraging - I feel certian I will never have the access, the equipment or the skills; but yet their concerns are much the same as in are they where they need to be, doing what they need to be doing to get the best shot and never or seldom being completly happy with what they got. I think I am lucky to to stumble around on my own and maybe once in a blue moon getting a keeper. The pressure they feel has to be head splitting. Fun video to watch, thanks for the link.

LUCK, LUCK, LUCK - That was the key message for me. The emotion, "never happy with what they shot"; fascinating stuff! 2.8 was standard - AND a monopod a must! Noticed that one of them had an assistant to handle changing out the cameras as needed. Wanted to know HOW MUCH they shoot in a championship game! With shooting both Raw/Jpeg, eat up a lot of space. Noticed too, that they removed their cards to transmit - not from camera. Don't know if I'd want to risk damaging the card by trusting the reader - but I guess they can't conveniently leave the camera at the transmit station then get it back into the game. Just fascinating stuff! Thanks, Rob!!
