ei reportterit saa käyttää muita kuin ammattilaisten kameroita ja videolaitteita. Esi. I-phonella otettuja kuvia ei saa lähettää ja esittää... voi menettää lupansa.

Kännyköillä saa nykyään tosi tasokkaitakin kuvia, mutta ei Venäjällä??

 

Any journalist who snaps Sepia Instagrams of their brunch at the Sochi Olympics will promptly lose their accreditation for the games. “Journalists using mobile phones to film athletes or spectators will be considered a serious violation and will result in cancellation of accreditation,” reported Vasily Konov, head of the Russian state-run R-Sports news outlet.

The free speech-loving Russian authorities apparently have extended the ban to all non-professional equipment, including tablets. The ban essentially nixes Instagram, Vine, Whatsapp, Frontback and any other newfangled software the kids are using these days.

First things first, there are amazing iPhone photos that compete with the professional equipment, like this gem below from photographer Benjamin Lowy. Or, take the annual iPhone Photograph Awards (which I did not post, for fear of being hauled off to court for copyright violations).

No photos: Olympic Games with Russian restrictions

 

Nov 11, 2013

The Olympic Games Russian Style! Participants and other accredited persons at the Sochi Winter Games in February cannot post any video and/or audio of the events, competitions or any other activities which occur at Olympic Venues. Such video and/or audio must only be for personal use and must not be uploaded and/or shared to a posting, blog or tweet on any social media platforms, or to a website.

Reporters covering the 2014 Sochi Winter Games in February will not be tweeting, Instagramming, Vining, or Pinteresting the Olympics because they stand to be stripped of their access if they are caught using their iPhone or any other amateur gadgets to post photos.

At a seminar for sports reporters covering the games on Friday, Vasily Konov, the state-run RIA's top sports journalist, made clear any time a journalist is caught using their phone to capture the Games in real time it "will be considered a serious violation and will result in cancellation of accreditation." RIA's sports division handles accreditation for Sochi. Only photographers will special passes and appropriate equipment — proper SLR and digital video cameras — will be able to document the action. "The organizers, of course, will not affect the usual crowd," Konov told the gathered reporters, but assured them organizers would punish those who are caught.

The penalty is a serious one for such a trivial crime. But this isn't a case of Russia cracking down on the rights and freedoms ahead of a world event. The 2012 Summer Olympics in London had similar restrictions on reporters' abilities to take photos and videos but it wasn't widely enforced, as Capital New York's Alex Weprin points out. From the London Games' press kit guidelines: .

But Russia promises to crack down on the extra curricular photography. Perhaps they're worried reporters will catch how the Olympic sites that aren't quite constructed yet, and some are worried they won't finish before the Games, which are only a few months away. "Of course we are prepared," Sochi Mayor Anatoly Pakhomov promised in September. At least they have that hoarded snow to cover things up with.

no tuo nyt on ihan normaalia, jos et ole akkreditoitunut kuvaajaksi tai kuvaavaksi toimittajaksi vaan olet pelkästään "written press" eli kirjoittava, isoissa tapahtumissa kuten urheilun MM-kisoissa tai olympialaisissa tai megakonserteissa tyyliin Madonna, jossa ei muuten yleensä saa taviskuvaajatkaan kuvata vaan harvat ja valitut, jos kisasuorituksista leviää jokamiesvideota noin vain pitkin maailmaa niin luuletteko että mainostajat suostuu pulittamaan miljardeja telkkariyhtiöille tai kisajärjestäjille kun homman voi hoitaa paljon halvemminkin
