    It is great to see a hand held Speed Graphic being used to photograph sports. There have been many classic sports photos made with this camera. I would like to see link where we could view his results. I would wager that they hold up well in comparison to the results of the digitals.

    His website is http://www.davidburnett.com/ Nothing from the current Olympics is up yet, but plenty from previous sporting events to give you a hint.

    His quote on my buddy's (who took that picture) Facebook page was,
    A little worried about the 2 degree angle of the camera, we will see NEXT WEEK when the film is ready.
    (caps are mine).
    Must be nice not to have a deadline in 2 minutes!
    Good on him for sticking to his preferred work flow. The guy is a work horse and loves what he does as much today as ever.

    He is a really nice guy too, I've talked to him online and he suffers fools gracefully.
