cdneng2 writes "Rob Galbraith has an in-depth article on the digital photo process of Sports Illustrated. The article walks through SI's digital workflow of Super Bowl XXXVIII as it sorts through the 16,183 digital pictures shot by eleven of the magazine's staff photographers and the process all the way to the cover of the magazine. Sorry, no Janet Jackson or swimsuit pics in this article."

    Why would they need Dual G5s or Photoshop? The most they do to the photos is crop them. Hell, photoshop shouldn't even be in a real journalists office.

    Show me what happened, not an artists conception of what happened.

    And how much equipment do you need to bring onsite to snap shots of a bunch of meatheads chasing a ball around?
