I thought this was interesting, since it's the Super Bowl guidelines, but there are many other sporting events that have similar restrictions on lens size. Sports Shooters have had varied results per the arena, but this thread is directed at fans and cameras.
Phones, PDAs and pagers? What's with that?
Anyway the 6" lens is the max. My Canon L zoom is over that. I figure I may have to buy a consumer grade zoom lens, some day, if I want to shoot as a fan in the stands.
Cameras and Binoculars -- Small cameras and binoculars will be allowed. Camera cases and binocular cases of any size are prohibited. No spectator cameras with lenses over six inches (6") long will be permitted. Again, camcorders will be prohibited.
Electronic devices -- Spectators are strongly urged not to bring electronic devices of any sort into the Stadium. Any electronic device will be thoroughly inspected causing delays of the individual spectator, as well as other patrons. Electronic devices include, but are not limited to, cellular telephones, pagers, miniature televisions and radios, and personal digital assistants (PDA's).
