1. Re: Big canon brother is watching you in Oregon...
Ann Shelbourne Sep 16, 2008 1:00 PM (in response to badchess)So which lens do you think that is? The 800mm behemoth or something a little less? -

badchess Sep 16, 2008 1:04 PM (in response to badchess)They said they only paid $8000.
So, shooting 10 fps it's got to be a 1diii, so that is $5,000.
Maybe the 100-400 zoom for a few thousand more? -

4. Re: Big canon brother is watching you in Oregon...
badchess Sep 17, 2008 6:10 AM (in response to badchess)Yeah. If people want to be stupid and not wear seatbelts let them. I'd much rather seeing the osp hanging out in tavern parking lots at closing time. -

Allen Wicks Sep 24, 2008 11:15 AM (in response to badchess)Cops on overpasses with super-tele, just what the world needs. In my little mountain community of Truckee, CA it is even worse. The TPD has infrared on a cruiser that can present the heat signature of individuals, couples, groups in buildings, etc. Although a warrant is required for
i legal
usage, I would be very, very surprised if individual officers do not abuse the tool to look for home pot growers or whatever; or perhaps just to entertain themselves.
