This photo from MSNBC regarding the US Open today.

At the upper right hand corner of the photo, a photographer's camera had a big round thing attached to the camera front right where the lens is located. I wonder what that is. It doesn't looks like a lens since it's kind of big. I think few heads down to his right, another photographer also had one.

Do you know what that is?
 
Do you mean the rain hats they are wearing??? Several men there have rain hats on....the new,modern style...
 
That's simply a BAFE lens.

That is a lens with a Big Arse Front Element. He's probably also got a hood on which helps with the size.

I gonna get me one of those so I can go pro. :D
 
I personally like the guy in the very back just to the right of the flash, he's a true pro taking pics wiht his cell phone :). Screw thousands of dollars in bodies and lenses that you have to put on the ground, I got an IPhone and I'm making money, yay!:greenpbl:
 
That's the trophy. LOL. JK. Pretty sure it is a big ass lens.
