save your money for a 70-200 2.8 IS

But I like having the zoom of the 300. I know i can get a 70-200 significantly cheaper, but I use the zoom quite often.

Spying on neigbourhood girls ?

Nah, no good lookin neighbors. It's all old people down here

I am more into outdoor photography, so the zoom is nice

You can? No you can't. the 70-200 2.8 IS is MORE expensive than the 70-300. It's just faster and sharper glass.

There are sigma 70-200's at the local Ritz for 2-300 new

It might not be the 2.8 though. I am no guru of photograpy

 

[roy obanion]

nah, he's talking about the other 70-200's...the Canon 70-300 is superior to those.

 

[mx-p5]

I'm all sorts of confused.

 

[roy obanion]

Sorry, I was replying to Funky not you Tylor.

 

[mx-p5]

Who was in turn replying to me.

How's that fit? lol

 

[roy obanion]

I'll just stay out of it then. Suffice it to say for your needs the 70-300 is the best lens.

 

[mx-p5]

lol. I'm just bustin on ya.

And, i am pretty set on the 70-300.

A buddy of mine here suggested something that mounts at the base of the lens at the body that multiplies the power of the lens.

Anyboyd have experience with em? Or is it like the "Ebay Fisheye" lens?

i think what your talking about is a teleconverter and downside with one of those is that it not only (if per say its a 2x teleconverter) it doubles yuor focal range i.e 300 becomes 600 but it also doubles your f# making the lense slower

doh, that would kill any daytime shooting power, but, it would make some sick night shots at super high zoom. hmm....
