Racetrack Photography in Sports Posted October 19, 2008 As noted above, the track and shooting location determine the necessary focal length. I use an 80-200mm - f/2.8 for most close action track applications. I also have 300mm - f2.8 prime, that is a good 2nd body lens, but not a good "all around" track lens.<br> <br> Here are a couple of photos and Exif info to help you establish a baseline. <br> <br> D2X, 300mm - f/2.8, 1/320 @ f/7.6, ISO 200.<br> <img src="http://d6d2h4gfvy8t8.cloudfront.net/8045789-md.jpg"> <br> <br> D2x, 80-200mm - f2.8 @ 125mm, 1/320 @ f/14, ISO 400.<br> <img src="http://d6d2h4gfvy8t8.cloudfront.net/8045787-md.jpg">

As noted above, the track and shooting location determine the necessary focal length. I use an 80-200mm - f/2.8 for
most close action track applications. I also have 300mm - f2.8 prime, that is a good 2nd body lens, but not a
good "all around" track lens.<br>
