Kentucky Derby has banned ... "interchangeable lens cameras (e.g. DSLRs, mirrorless cameras), [plus] any camera that has a lens longer than 6 inches, tripods, and camcorders."
They are claiming: "Churchill Grounds says that the measures were developed after consulting with several law enforcement authorities following the Boston Marathon bombings last week." Which is all kinds of wrong by itself, but I bet the the real reason has more to do with protecting the visual turf of the contracted professionals. http://petapixel.com/2013/04/23/kentucky-derby-bans-all-interchangeable-lens-cameras-for-security-purposes/ -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
