decided it is not worth the hassle for birding
In terms of quality, I would have thought that a Q + good lens would be much better than the kits that are sold with a compact camera on a spotting scope.

I'm interested in what sort of hassle you experienced?

Certainly if you are seriously interested I wouldn't hang around. Phone them to make sure it's still there and get them to hold it for you until you can get there.

Please don't deflect this too far into politics, we're really talking about photographers and the olympics.

And of course their draconian rules.

I'll quote what Martin Evening says about it.

Quote:
This (step interpolation) is not really necessary now because you can use Bicubic Smoother or Bicubic sharper to increase or decrease the image size in a single step
Using step interpolation only really needs to be thought about with excessive changes in image size. That's probably unlikely now as image sizes start off as quite large anyway,

The Q with a 35mm lens would have a 35mm-equivalent of 192.5mm, which might help get something.

What about a picture of a Nikon taken with a Pentax???
I can't think of anything else I'd take a picture of a Nikon with, presumably to sell it on eBay...

Before any Nikon owners get offended by that, may I please confirm it was light hearted banter....

How broad minded, Stan?
There is an adult filter in the galleries, but even with that there is a limit as to what PU will accept, so sadly the degree of broad-mindedness could be limited!
