Photographer's gear

I went there for 3rd year in a row. People bring some serious gear to this event.

This one is new super expensive Canon 200-400mm lens with built-in tele-converter

Ironically, at 200mm and F4 the perspective/DOF won't be much different from 75mm F1.8 lens that I used. And there is a little need in longer lens at this place. One always can come a bit closer, except maybe for jousting tournament. Otherwise 150-200mm FL is optimal. And my E-PL5 got more DR than his Canon.

Nikon 200mm F2.0 lens on D4. Too bad I haven't seen the guy's photos:

This is my friend in 2011. Contax MF, Phase One digital back and Zeiss 350mm F4.0 lens, something like 220mm in FF equivalent:

Below is his photo. I have to admit, it's hard to compete with these colors and rendition.
