[Leica] Cameras/Lenses at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles

[stasys1 at cox.net (Stasys Petravicius)]

Hi All- The scare was that traffic would be impossible. It was fine. We went 
for 2 days of track and field- using the designated buses, and drove our car 
for the other days of water polo and weightlifting at outlying venues. i 
used a Nikon F and a Nikor 50-300 zoom. There was no ban on long lenses or 
camera types/sizes. I have not printed all the negatives-yet. I shot Carl 
Lewis coming across the 100 meter finish line from 9 rows up in the 
grandstand. If I wasn't so lazy- I'd make some nice prints. I do not recall 
that LA spent billions on new facilities- and the Olympics here made money! 
The times they are achanging - maybe not for the better. My $0.02. Stasys
