Dear Friends, Did you all notice the TV court view changes? We want the big view! But it only lasted for 12 seconds... but after that it was bk to this small view. It was less exciting to watch the game with the small view. Hope WBF will stick to the big view as 'TV centre court benchmark standard'. Please!
Big View for Badminton is so much better Hi LD FAN, Definitely, I agree. Big View for Badminton is so much better. Cheers... chris@ccc
Why do they even bother with the small view? It's just stupid... Not only is it too far away but the angle is all messed up and it's harder to see what's happening.
It could still be bigger as they are trying to catch the whole of the advertising board at the back. Don't know what they are trying to do in the second pic though. edit: maybe they are trying to catch the side advertising boards for those who have angle vision.
Thanks guys for supporting my complaints. I have classified this error to be WBF biggest mistake on its effort to promote badminton! If they do not take action immediately, badminton can say 'bye bye' to future olympic games. It seems that the authorities did not know how to utilise their power to do something good for badminton but instead damaging the image of the 'world fastest racquect sport'. TV broadcast function is supposed to bring the best of the live court actions nearest to the audience in the best comfortable view, not for us to suffer when viewing it. Ended up I have to replay the video recorder between LD and BAO using PowerDVD player 4x zooming to view the game properly and the difference is fantastic! But I noticed that WBF tend to stick to this 'small view' standard as you guys can see starting even from WC2005 in Anaheim. WBF so far has already been complaint by many people not able to deliver the best in running tournaments especially the recently arguments happened at Hong Open 2006 and WC2006. It's easy, to solve the problem, WBF should just engaged to the service of ONE professional TV broadcast team, here I mention 'THE ALL ENGLAND CHAMPIONSHIP TV TEAM'. They should follow WBF to whole world like what we can see from Formula One Championship. What do you guys think? U have better suggestion pls voice it out. TQ.
