Heh, but I'll still go with what the overwhelming majority uses. :)

No you don't mister. See all those big white lenses? Each one of them costs about 6x what your rig did, and that's not including the $7,000 body most of them are probably using :p
It's entirely possible, each one of those guys has (just in their hands) $13 - $14,000.00 worth. :whoa:
Even at a 10K average there is $180,000.00 worth of Canon gear in that shot. Who knows what those 2-3 silly Nikon user's stuff is worth :p

I like the guy seventh from the right looking back at him. He is probably thinking that the guy could well get a great shot.
I remember a story told in a magazine a long time ago about a young photographer that took the definitive shot of a football game winning field goal.
He was way up in the top of the stands and used an extreme wide angle lens. All around the stadium people are rising to their feet as the ball passed through the uprights. According to the story, the photo was picked up by the wire services and he soon became a famous photographer.
Why wasn't he on the field with the other photographers? He could not get a press pass and this was the next best thing he could think of to do.
The photo was in the article and I must say it conveyed the sense of excitement and victory.

I was speaking figuratively of course. ;) I assumed that those guys had some serious camerage in their hands.
That's kinda how I feel now. It's kinda embarrassing taking grainy underlighted pics with $1500 in camera accessories. LOL
