I do quite a bit of sports work for papers:
football (soccer)
gaelic
hurling
motorsports
Currently I have a Sigma 50-500, but I find it's ofte slow to focus, and I miss a potential shot. It's got to the stage where I'm planning to sell it and replace it with something faster focusing.
I regularly use it at around 300-350mm, so would need a lens with decent reach, but I rarely use the full 500mm, and if I did want it, I can buy a 2x converter.
So, what's my options?
Nikon 70-200 f2.8 VR?
Anything else? I'd probably prefer nikon, as all my other lenses are nikon, but its not 100% required.
Cheers in advance for reading + replies.
