Just read through this article about how Sports Illustrated's workflow has changed with Digital Cameras.

Interesting that they shot 1,028,000 digital pics last year, and are expecting over 3,000,000 this year.
Dreaming about their typical setup:
"Staff photographer Bob Rosato's collection of gear is fairly typical. To a football game he takes four or five EOS-1D bodies and 600mm f/4, 400mm f/2.8, 300mm f/2.8, 70-200mm f/2.8, and 50mm f/1.4 lenses. For basketball, he adds five or six EOS-1Ds cameras and dispenses with the 400 and 600mm lenses. Of the ten or so camera bodies that he takes to a basketball game, many are of course mounted overhead or around the basket for remote operation." |
