So I am lucky enough to have secured tickets for one athletics session and also for a rowing session. Does anyone have any idea from previous sporting events what is deemed as acceptable equipment for an amateur to take into a stadium ?

On the LOCOG website it says "large photographic equipment (including tripods)" are banned. I was hoping to take in a 70-200 VR II, 2X Converter and my 24-70 oh and my D7000.....I guess that's not going to be allowed ? Failing that I've got an old 18-200 but that's going to make me cry!

I am not sure the photographic opportunites would be that great at the athletics but I would have though the rowing might have been interesting.

Any thoughts ?!?!
 
if it "looks" profesional they probably wont let you in wiht it.. no matter how much you tell them its not.. no matter how much you tell them personal use only... the rule of thumb usually is..if it "looks" profesional..
