Its going to be brighter than day, you wont need a flash!
And you'd need some seriously powerful flash guns to illuminate the cars 100-200m away...
below is point 54 in the faq.
54. Due to tight security and safety concerns the following items are prohibited and may not be brought into the circuit?
Alcohol, pets or animals except service animals (e.g. seeing eye dogs & police dogs), any item that could be used as a weapon, audio recorders, bicycles, scooters, skateboards and roller-blades/skates, camera tripods, monopods, telephoto camera lenses with a focal strength of greater than 200mm, video cameras and handy-cams, cans, chairs/stools, eskies & hampers, fireworks, Frisbees and helium balloons, glass (including bottles), large containers in excess of 1.25 litres, large flags, musical instruments and/or amplification equipment, prams and strollers (not permitted in seating areas), unauthorized advertising material or flyers, laser pointers, distress signals, whistles or loud hailers, dangerous goods and any other item prohibited by legislation. The items listed in this Clause are not exhaustive and a list of all prohibited items will be placed at the entrance to the Circuit Park and/or areas designated by SGPPL.

erm... does this means we can still bring our own bottled water in as long as it doesn't exceed 1.25 litres?
Sure sounds like it, yup.
http://www.singaporegp.sg/ticket.html check out #6 and #8 
1. Get temporary employment with a media company with F1 media accreditation.
2. Buy media accreditation from F1, US$10,000 per media for those not covering F1 on regular basis.
so ... :dunno:

their T&Cs are so stupid. on one hand, they say can bring container if the capacity do not exceed 1.25 litres.
then, on the other hand, they say Ticket Holders shall not bring food or beverages of any description into the Circuit (to avoid doubt).
to me, what doubt is there... if my container's capacity does not exceed 1.25 litres... then i'm fine. as a good citizen, i abide by this rule. then the other clause say i shall not bring food or beverage in. now i'm in doubt of whether can or cannot :dunno:
The 24-70 is not a telephoto lens.
Maybe you can bring plain water.. beverages = sweet drinks? ;p

i had a gut feeling that this F1 will have a lot of confusion since it is the first time.
Ah well. 85mm f/1.8 also cannot :bsmilie:
they say can bring container if the capacity do not exceed 1.25 litres, but never say it can be filled with anything like water...

The nightrace F1 here in Singapore is not starting on the right foot with the fiasco when trying to buy the tickets.
Looking at the way the crowd control was handled during the Singapore Airshow I'm not sure how well will the planning be for the race. I'm sure that that the spin doctors will say sorry and it was their first time doing the F1 race if some things go south during the race.
I believe that there'll be no DSLR and water to be brought in during the F1 and they'll quote for security reason.:thumbsup:
