That is the irony of the situation. The lens I had was an
old, eBay $10 manual focus Tamron 80-200 zoom attached via adapter ring to
my Rebel Xt. I was a genuine threat to any pro shooters there. I suspect they
didn't want pros taking photos and their pro criteria is a 'long' lens even when
its on a cheap camera. By the way in case anyone goes to an event at the John
Labatt Center in London Ontario, bring a short lens.

I wonder what they would do with a
camera like this: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Canon/canon_sx1is.asp
