Yep. Dave on his handheld iPhone vs the entire professional camera setup of the broadcaster covering the game? Who even watches teh crap they film at these events- do people actually re-watch the gig/match/whatever that they recorded on their phone? Surely if you are going to re-watch an event you would watch the broadcaster's professional footage instead of your own?

I can understand getting a snapshot or whatever, but I cannot get my head around why you'd ever think it's worth foregoing the actual event to capture amateur footage on a mobile with a lens smaller than a pinhead, when you've got people who know what they are doing with proper gear to do the job anyway.

Still- each to their own. Doesn't do any harm, it just puzzles me.
