Gotta do what you gotta do. But I do not think it is as bad as people make it out to be. Going to any kind of sports event most pro photographers I have seen all shoot with the distinct off white L's.

Yeah. I think that most sports shooters shoot Canon anyway. Sure, photogs might not like it, but the bottom line is that they need to do this to do their jobs, and for the most part it's harmless.

even the canon guys aren't liking it so much.

there are a lot of white bazookas on the sidelines, however. i've always wanted to try bring a white bazooka with me and telling the security people i'd forgotten my pass. see if i can get field access for free.

LOL no way. You pick up your pass there. It's not something you can leave at home ;)
