What lenses are they using?

Unless they get too big for themselves, this is where you can talk about the "other" brands of DSLR's: Konica Minolta / Sony, Pentax / Samsung, Olympus, Horseman, etc.

I went to the soccer last night, what sort of gear are the togs using? I was up on 3rd level with a little P&S.

Most will have either a Canon MkIII or Nikon D3's making a comeback, maybe a D300 or two. Most will have a 400mm F2.8 + probably another body with a 70-200.

There may be a few 300's, even possibly something more exostic like 500 or 600 or even a 200 F.2 - and when I am there a Sigma 120-300. :D (had a family engagement gggrrrr)

When I was at Origin I the other week I was sitting ion row 14, so using my D300 + a borrowed 70-300VR I was able to identify a single D3 most of the other photographers were sporting EOS 1D's and all seemed to have a big 300mm or 400mm f/2.8 and a second camera with what I can only assume to be a 70-200 f/2.8. MONOPODs seemed to be the supports of choice.
