Hello all,
Long ...ish time reader first time poster.
I'm in the market for a new telephoto lens, i've currently got a Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 macro which is... well... not that great (what did i expect for £130 ).
I'm going on a photography workshop next month (In The Company of Wolves), so I have decided to buy a new lens for the event.
I have seen the Canon 70-200mm f/4 L which looks very nice, but I'm a bit unsure whether 200mm will be long enough. I have also seen the Canon 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS, if the 200mm is not long enough.
Obviously I would love a 100-400mm L but the wallet says no '() - I have seen the 70-200mm L for £350 which is a bit of a bargain and being a L lens it will be of high quality.
Can anyone comment on both these lenses? Which one should I go for (or should i look at something different?)?.
Has anyone done this type of workshop before? What do they recomend?
Thanks!
