Years and years ago no cameras had ibis or anything like it. Nothing on the lenses either. Go back in time and look at the fantastic sharp picture. 1940s to 1990.

Yep, who needs any of the advancements we've had since the 1940s, right? I mean, just check out this photo on the NFL's website taken by legendary photographer Vic Stein from the 1949 NFL Championship game. You'd easily be forgiven for mistaking it for the sports photos we'll see tomorrow at the Superbowl based on the technical quality!

Is this photo from the game? I don't see any people in the stands.

Not sure. Just said it was from the Championship game. Here's the photo on their website with info.

Also, I think the photographer would have to be on the playing field to take that photo or they had some very long zoom lenses for the time period.

I had wondered if it was two images. One of the players and one of the stadium/pitch.
