It looks as though CSI: Miami have got a technical consultant
who understands something about photography!

Instead of seeing infinite enlargements from a digital camera
they showed a film-based camera, and there was visible grain
shown on the extreme enlargements!  Amazing!

Not everything was right, of course - the film cassette I saw
was red and white, which didn't match any decent film I know.
(And there was only one cassette and camera - for a paparazzi?)
And there's no way the lenses they showed could have taken the
shots we saw.  I don't know what the lens was (although it was
decent quality - it had a big fat front element, perhaps 135/2.8)
But you'd need 400mm or so for the shots they were using.

Another interesting thing was the fact that the camera shown
in a couple of closeups was a Nikon F100 - a non-USA camera.
