Hi
My other half has treated himself to a Canon d550. One of the reasons he bought it was to take pictures at race circuits as he is into motorbikes. I know he has been looking at 300mm zoom lenses and Im hoping to buy one for his birthday. To be honest Im lost as the range is very confusing, so I have a few questions-
1-Is a 70-300 telephoto different to a 70-300 macro?
better with or without stabilisation for sports?
2-USM or not?
3-What is the image quality difference likely to be between the canon ones at £200 and the more expensive ones?
4-Canon or compatible ie Sigma and so on?
5-Places to buy or just go for cheapest?
Sorry for all the questions, didnt know it would be so complicated!
Thanks
