Ah the Chicago Jazzfest. I photographed the first few while I was living in
Chicago. Having the right lens on can be a problem. If I remember correctly,
there were times when I would use 4 bodies and lenses. A 21, 35, 100, and
180.

The only digitized example is here:

This was from the first festival, shot with a 21.
