    I have looked at the wording of the AFL photography rules and it states that no photography to be use for commercial purposes. It does not say you can't have a lens greater than 200mm. It states that's you must not bring photography equipment for commercial purposes apart for personal use, give list of equipments greater than 200mm is one of them. Documents like this one must always read carefully. Each word means something. Especially in this case the word apart from personal use.

As it is perfectly legal for any person in Australia to arrest someone they believe who has committed a crime, but it is illegal to un-arrest a person. So in order to move out of the line, by law they must take me to the office and hand me to the police. So in most situations they will get the police to do it.

For example if you and I swap cameras for a day and gave our cameras back to each and a few hour later you told me to delete your photos of my camera I would have to do that and could in trouble for keeping them and also for distributing them. Which is why when ever you do a camera swap one must use the own SD card.

    Never seen your videos before, algorithm brought me here. But I think your picture was better than the 1st place for this competition, because it was taken at the local fair. Lots of your local people probably went to the fair and had a good time. The dog&lady picture could have been taken anywhere. I clicked on your video because I'm in a sort of a similar situation. I entered a local photo contest with a geographical limitation, my first photo competition. The pictures are in a popular vote and judging at the same time (right now), so I have seen the other pictures but the winners are still to be decided. A lot of the other pictures are technically better, more beautiful etc than what I took. But only in a few of them you can even tell where the picture was taken due to background blur or a close crop of the subject. I tried to pick my subject matter to best represent the geographical area, but I don't think I'll finish in the top ten if you just look the pictures without comparing them to the actual prompt. There are two categories and many of the pictures in the other category don't even fill the one but very specific criteria for that category... feeling pretty deflated and I wonder if it was even a good idea to enter in the competition now that I know this. That there is a good chance to lose to entries that aren't made to answer to the prompt of the category. Sort of like entering a marathon and seeing other people on bikes and cars at the start line.

      ​@@robdidoThank you for answering. I'm thinking of using it for traveling. Will it make much difference in terms of transportation? Canon is the smallest DSLR camera. What is the advantage of a mirrorless camera?

    Congratulations Rob, well done mate. I have entered a few competitions myself and never won anything. It's good to see one of my mates doing well because it inspires me to keep working on my own photography. You should be proud of yourself, keep it up.

    Congratulation on the prize, and it should be the #1 photo! Doing street photography with the Olympus 45mm is not always easy, focal length wise, but for sharpness, color, and character, oh yea, it is there.

    • @robdido
      @robdido Před 13 dny

      Cheers Loren.. I remember actually going through your specs around that time and thought I don't use this 45 as much as it deserves. Your right on the character and sharpness.. not the most common street but I find it perfect distance myself
