.
BTW, I bought the lens to shoot pics for my son's pee wee hockey games. I have an old Canon 300D (6 MP) and I did try it with the 70-200mm IS II lens. The result is not very good - the highest ISO I can set is 1600 and this only give ma about 1/250 SS with 'correct' exposure which is still a little bit dark to me. I shoot with Av and already set the aperture to f/2.8 which is the widest.
Thanks in advance!

The 300D lacked in action shooting. You had to use sports mode but you could not use raw in Sports mode and there were quite a few other limitations.
Live used T2i for rodeo shooting at ISO 3200 and it looked great. I think any one of the 3 cameras you are asking about will definitely do great with hockey.
