Re: New lens for sports photography

For big field sports like football you need as much reach as you can get. I used the 100-400 I and the push pull does need to get used to. It is a good lens. Now I have the mk II and its a much better lens, faster, not push pull and better IQ. I used it for Lacrosse and surfing. My friend reviewed the Sigma 150-600 contemporary and liked it a lot. It has more reach which is good for football.
