Are stills cameras permitted at the MCG?

The Linton Street Flash · Fri 25 Sep 2009 9:13am

Someone posted a list of MCG do's and don't earlier in the week - It mentioned No audio/visual equipment, I'm assuming it refers to video cameras - does that mean no stills cameras also?

Does anyone know?

Stills are fine, videos are not

Last years AFL season allowed cameras with a focal lenght of up to 200mm. The Australia open and the Grand Prix were the same. I can only assume this is still the same.

For reference the guys on the boundry line shooting for the Herald Sun, The Age and GSP will be using 400mm and 500mm lens.
